Reminds me of my current situation. I bought a 94 b150 for 2k 2 years ago. So far, I've spent nearly 10k rebuilding and replacing the whole thing. It runs like a dream now. Love it!
I agree, that's why I opted to have it done, sometimes peace of mind especially when traveling means having a professional do it, especially on a vehicle I just acquired and you don't know its condition.
Very informative. I liked your delivery and full explanation. I would end up doing what you ended up doing probably to the tee. I am planning to get a used Toyota camper such as yours and trying to do my homework ahead of time.
I have a 1988 Chevy G30 6.2 Diesel ex US Air Force truck with under 30K miles on it that I want to use for camping. I've put about 10K into it ! I'm sometimes sorry I ever touched it 😮
Yes, it can be daunting but if you compare the price of a newer RV it's hard to get into anything for less than $75K and all of a sudden spending $10-$15K on something doesn't seem so bad. RV'ing and vanlife are expensive habits, sad to say! Good luck with your rig, it sounds like it'll be amazing!
Agreed! I actually did source a carbon reservoir for it from a junkyard but oh man most of the Toyota trucks I have found have been picked clean, so I turn to Craigslist and eBay for other stuff.
Good information, you were very thorough.
Glad you liked it

That's dedication! You'll get a lot of miles out of that!
@fourthgear8199 yup! I do fishing trips from Dallas to Galveston twice a month. Zero issues.
Not that I'm lazy. I just Don't want to do anything in regards to my rig.
I'll hire it done.

Thank you so much for watching; hope you get a great camper. Once sorted, they're super reliable, in my experience!

Alot of money can be saved by going to junk yards for certain things
