    I am in my 12th year of retirement with no wife, no kids and I do anything I want, for as long as I want any time day or night. Favorites are gourmet cooking, camping, kayaking and woodworking. Life is good but I paid my dues. Get out there and have fun!!!!

    I’ve been knocked a little for voicing my “living in a van down by the river” retirement plan but dang that dream is still there.

      @brokenwishbone422 4 года назад +19

      People only knock nomadic living because they can't do it themselves. They are too scared or weak to go against what the government has taught their family freedom is. That and/or they have too many attachments to the material world and their ego.

      My Husband and I seasonal camp. We know probably 50 other campers that do it all year. Live in their campers. Some summer camp here in Michigan and winter camp down south. Some are retired, some have jobs that require travel and they take the entire family with them. Some, like us, go home for the winter. Some sadly could not afford to have a home plus pay for medical needs. Even know some cancer patients that have outlived their life expectancy and they directly attribute it to lack of stress they have in their lives now. Hold on to the Dream Kevin! It’s a good one!

    Hey man ! Greetings from the Missouri Ozarks !!! Your camping strategy is very similar to mine. I recently purchased a 1997, 15 passenger Ford van. I took out the bench seats and made it my camping rig. I build my camping experience around campfire cooking, fly fishing for trout, and just relaxing. At 67 years young, the best activity is the one with the least amount of work. (LOL). I follow You, Coyote Works, and Chad (Living the Van Life). All three of you guys embody my camping philosophy. Keep it up brother and thanks for letting me be a part of your adventures !

    I love seeing the old pups. I wish I would have traveled and camped more with my last buddy. When I got my current dog I said I would not let this opportunity pass. He loves to hike, travel and camp. We’ve been to Colorado twice. We are headed to Moab in 10 days. Banff is on the list. Sedona. I want to take as many trips as I can take from Dallas since we are 12-25 hours from everywhere I want to go. We drive the Jeep and then sleep in the Jeep. We have a blast. I really miss my old buddy, but I love making memories with my new one. Love the videos.

      why does MAN need to hold onto outdated Combustion ?
      do yo know 500,000 of People die each year to Accidental Combustion ?
      you are 100x more safer with Electric Heat than GAS.

    Jason, thanks for another great video with the introduction of “the van”. One of the things I like about your channel is that when you find a piece of gear you like, you continue to use it in an everyday function. We’re excited in watching you build the van to your needs and not what other want. Lastly, your meals are beautiful and fun to watch. We’re all wanting to pull up a chair and grab a plate to join you, and a glass of Pendleton. Lastly, to take your breakfast of biscuits with sausage gravy to the next step, try scrambled eggs. All our best, Skillet

    One more thought. A go fund me to get a 7.3 diesel for the van. They are a million mile engine also, and a diesel heater will get you some good dry heat.😁

    I've been driving vans for 38 years. Never had a 4x4 and have taken them in some crazy places. Posi-trac really makes a difference. The one I drive now for work is a pro-master front wheel drive. With your chains and good load distribution you'll be fine.
    Now I'm thinking of trading the Jeep for an old van.

    Nice trailer! I built my Desert Dawg about 10 years ago and have been camping in it every since. For those of us who love camping, teardrop trailers are a great way to be outdoors!

    jeeze i really hate to be THAT guy....you know a mr. know it all, but the tire chain you showed the close up of, the chain was mounted with the wrong side out, i'm 71 y. o. and have lived in no. nv almost my whole life, so back in the olden days we would get lots of snow every winter, and i was always taught when mounting chains to BE SURE that the cross chains faced outward, so that the smooth part of the chain was against the tire sidewall and with the very end of the chain where they are hooked to the side chain faces outward. please correct me if i'm wrong.

    Great name for the van. I've named my Jeep JL "Squatch" as in Sasquatch. Glad to hear you're gonna keep both the Ford and Van. Like you, I've always wanted a Sportsmobile but, who's got 70 - 80 thousand dollars? Your videos are excellent and I find myself looking forward for each new one every week but, I was attracted to your RUclips channel mostly because of photography. You seem to have strayed away from photography and lean more toward the camping/overlanding aspects. Nothing wrong with camping/overlanding (I'm gearing up for overlanding here in the outback of Nevada) but I liked your photography and hope you get more of it in the future. Thanks.

      @Terry Long...you haven't checked the prices for a (new) Sportsmobile lately...they run way over $100K...which is crazy but, they have a waiting list over a year long so they must know what they are doing.

    • @ryanwolfe8638
      @ryanwolfe8638 4 года назад

      A locker in the rear only, especially if it is not selectable (e locker or ARB type) has a tendency to push the vehicle straight when making turns at intersections (snow covered roads). Without the front wheels working to drive the vehicle it is a pain in the ass. I know some throttle management can manage this to a point, but it is an issue to think about. I would not want a locker in a rear wheel drive vehicle that was not a selectable locker.
