Where do shit? I am not a Pajeet.
Where the fuck are you gonna store everything
People who live in vans can't afford many material possessions
The gym
work
Anywhere else
How would I deploy a G5RV for my TS-590SG?
There's plenty of room if you only keep things you actually use.
Don't you still gotta pay to park it somewhere? Unless you want to live with no electricity that is.
>he wants to be pestered by the cops constantly
>he wants to deal with maintaining an engine
>he wants to shit in a bag and piss in jugs
this type of lifestyle only works in very specific locations for very specific people.
If I had a driver's license and the funds, I'd gofor it.
One of those telescoping towers on a news van to raise the center to 40 feet and two portable towers to get the radials 15-20 feet up?
no thanks, I enjoy shitting in a toilet and not on the ground
Oh look it's
>only amerifat things
>Where do shit?
cheap gym membership or city community center
In the van in rubbermaid containers.
Super personal shit can be held at my parents, friend's house or in storage.
>Don't you still gotta pay to park it somewhere?
Nope, sleep in different parking lots overnight.
Walmart lets you sleep there no problem.
>Unless you want to live with no electricity that is.
I have a solar panel on my roof.
>>he wants to be pestered by the cops constantly
But they don't do that at all.
>>he wants to deal with maintaining an engine
What are you a pussy? It's not difficult to maintain a vehicle.
Watch Scotty Kilmer videos nigga.
>>he wants to shit in a bag and piss in jugs
I go at the city community center I park next to.
That or ANY restaurant or place of business.
based picture
but im doing this out of a minivan
I still work full time
Me too.
I dont see what your point is.
I would fucking love to live in an RV or something like this. I've actually been fantasizing about it a lot lately. It seems like literally the ultimate comfy existence.
Seems like it would be better just to save up some money and then live in a mobile home or something
why wouldn't you want to do this anywhere else?
idiot
Do it man, I'm at my parents right now in process of building this shit and it's so fun.
I'll be doing this full time in a few days/weeks.
I live in my parents house its free!
why? those things are insanely expensive
lucky you, most other anons arent that lucky
I bet you're 19 years old nigger
I'm 30
Not him, but I'm 32.
I knew a guy in IT who was still living at his mums at 37.
it's just a meme. you need a place where to park. f you park too close to the city centre you will need to pay $$$ (and most parking lot owners won't let you sleep there) which defeats the point of sleeping in a vehicle to save rent, and if you park too far from the city centre your at higher risk of getting jacked also you will waste time commuting which against defeats the purpose of living in a vehicle as opposed to renting
>cooling
You know nothing.
>oh no nono lolo meme
Why is it always proving itself retarded? Why won't it go away?
But about the Internet, mobile is shit in the USA, and in other countries it often is too.
I do indeed want to live in a van though. There is a rusty one my NEET ass has my eyes on right now.
>not already shitting in a bag and pissing in jugs
And if not retarded cops never notice. It's just van in a parking lot around other cars. No one knows someone is hiding in a refrigerator box shitposting on a phablet man.
I just park at walmarts and shit, they dont mind
any random strip mall parking works perfectly and there are random companys wifi you can connect to.
>You know nothing.
Yes I do.
Do you?
>paying to park at twenty-four hour supermarkets
Where do you even live?
It's not a meme kike. You just don't stay in one parking lot for more than like twelve hours.
An AC draws too much energy and mobile Internet is garbage. GARBAGE. At least in the USA.
>moving every 12 hours like a fugitive
lmao.
and no, most supermarkets have security guards that check the vehicles because there are tons of normal people who got foreclosed and now sleep in cars.
also fuel isn't free nigger, if you're going to move all the time you're going to need money to keep the engine running.
I dont have an ac, I just park in the shade and blow hot air out with fans.
also I just latch onto other's wifi.
bruh I stay at the same location for like 3 days then move, it's not a big deal at all
That seems like an incredibly shitty way to live. I know it still beats being homeless but I'd never feel safe living like that.
>If your van gets impounded you're homeless
So wheres the fucking shower, roach person
Having to pay a campsite to use/charge electric.
>Being forced to pay hundreds of dollars in fuel
>constantly running out of water to use the toilet/shower
>Unless you buy a proper expensive RV which at that point, buy a house?
Its not all rainbows, I have a motorhome atm lets me travel for sure, but during the winter months its freezing and campsites only let you stay 21/28 days , so 7 days a month I have to limit my electrical use. I would go south to get better weather but I'm a britbong and traveling to the south of France and back costs 600-800 euros.
>security driving by your van meaning anything
There are no real laws against loitering usually.
If you go back and forth between parking lots that are only one mile between each other that's only 730 miles per year. Cars don't need to be serviced for thousands of miles faggot, baring oil changes.
Why would you not want to run your car a mile or two per day anyway? It keeps it healthy. The tires will flatten otherwise, the gas goes bad if you let it sit and not get new gas, the battery goes bad, etc.
>just park in the shade bro
When I get on SSI I'll be forced to stay in FL. So this doesn't apply to everyone's situation.
3 days is pure stupid. Can be done I've noticed, but pure stupid. Being an ogle is why you ruin things for nice people.
The best way to live is to stay with parents until you can buy a home or a condo, fuck renting.
>That seems like an incredibly shitty way to live.
its actually pretty sweet
>>If your van gets impounded you're homeless
why would this happen
I have a membership with a city gym
I dont do any of that shit.
I only pay my car insurance, propane(20 bucks a month), and food.
It's fucking great.
That's my plan, down to a t.
#vanlife
do you also eat vegan and live a freegan life style?
I do like the idea of van living in some ways, but also I can easily afford to stay in my nice house. I'd maybe consider it one day to save for a deposit but as it is I dont see much benefit
lmao no fuck those leftist queers
i'd rather do a houseboat, honestly
I used to want to live like this. Like in a van, or a boat, or maybe a tiny house? But then I realized how much I really value the idea of extremely relaxing, hot showers. Every so often I'm not feeling well and I just want to sit on my toilet for like 20 minutes with complete privacy and no risk of disturbances. That's not even counting shit like shaving, brushing your teeth, so many god damn things. Bathrooms are fucking divine and deserve respect. The Romans knew it. The Japanese know it. You should know it. FUCK living in a van!
If you think that lifestyle is comfy try living in a fucking caravan and I can guarantee it will change your mind. I'd give pretty much anything just for a shithole apartment with actual heating that doesn't have leaks in the roof
This seems like an objectively great idea, so long as I can easily build it. But for some reason, I feel like it would be depressing and shitty.
>try to get a job
>no address
>"Sorry we do not hire homeless people"
May as well get an RV.
My gf and I are saving up to do this exact thing, actually. The plan is to just travel in it for a month or two at a time, or just take it on small vacations to save on hotel expenses.
Does anyone have any experience renovating vans? I have some questions
rvs and shit actually seem comfy, I like confined small spaces with just everything I need. too bad I prefer to live like a normal clean person though.
I live in a dodge grand caravan
>Does anyone have any experience renovating vans?
currently doing it right now
bought 70 items from amazon and 10 from elsewhere
ama
Looks like a dream
No shit
Landlord? Buy a house wtf?
>he paid for a van
>he paid to modify a van
HAHAHHAHAAAA
What about at night when all public restrooms are shut?
you could have that with either a boat or tiny house
where can I just buy one already built?
>full size campervan pre-furnished are 100th the price of an apartment, renting is 1/2
>vans are 1000th the price without furnishings
My life is set
maybe if i was rich. a boat is expensive as fuck to have a non-shitty as fuck bathroom. tiny house would need to be setup to a municipal water supply to do it too. so maybe it's still on the table but i doubt it compared to just conventional housing.
can I fucking stand up in it? I'm a 5'6" manlet but that van ceiling still looks too low
does it have a shower built in?
>where's the shower waaaahh
At the gym faggots.
do you currently pay rent or a mortgage?
>Mechanical issue
>Have to get out of my house for an extended period of time
kill yourself you fringe hobo degenerate kek
i was that tall when i was 12
You roll around in a roller chair user.
how you get snail mail OP?
there seems like a much higher chance that your van breaks down and has to be repaired as compared to a natural disaster hitting your rented apartment and in the latter case there's always renter's insurance
Once you defeat the other pedophiles, you must face the final boss.
im planning on doing this
i would like a transit250, ideally, but im sure theyre insanely expensive. failing that id like an older econoline or chevy astro
does anyone have feedback about using a typical oddysey or sienna or other non commercial van? bad idea or fine? do you guys use a generator for power or some sort of power-take-off from the drivetrain?
ive already done a full year on the streets so its not like i dont already know how to handle that aspect of the scenario. thanks for any input.
not op but get a PO Box. like $30 for 6mos
I actually really dig this and am into the idea, any tips or resources to get started?
>A PO Box works as a street address
t. Never actually had a grownup job
>Dude jusy sit your entire life lmao
I like my hamstrings to actually move.
>those price ratios
Pipe down retard
>shitting next to some old dude ripping ass then wiping with single ply toilet paper before showering in a room whose temperature you dont control and doing your bathroom routine in public
Sounds supes comfy user!
>my gf
I think it is time for you to leave this board.
so i always have to stay close to the gym?
whats a grownup job? i wouldnt know shit about that b.c i was homeless so any job was good enough. i got two seperate jobs with a PO Box. i even got a new social card issued and drivers license sent to the po box. why reply when you dont even know wtf youre talking about.
>totals your entire house
I live in a camper in an RV park. I pay less money a month on it than most of my fellow class mates pays for their cuck sheds, and I can move it anywhere as well as resale it. I did fall for the renting meme before but never again. My neighbors are also a lot nicer and quiet than the trash I had to live next to in apartments
walmart supercenters are 24 hours.
id do this, but you have to own a vehicle and pay insurance + gas + tons of other shit here in canada. insurance itself is like 300 minimum, ontario is outrageous with its insurance
my rent is 490 a month. could be a lot worse, honestly
car insurance is 300 a month but rent is only 490 a month??? wtf?
I don't know anything about cars, I'd probably break down somewhere bad and die
You vagrants are forgetting something
How the fuck do you get power and internet into a van?
I'd do this if i wasnt too retarded and knew how that worked.
I am thinking of buying a shed from home depot, since my family has about 20 acres of property. I could get power and plumbing to it for under 5K, which sounds a lot better than buying Goldstein-sama's "starter home" when I don't really have use for anything besides a pc desk, bed, place to cook, and place to shit.
I'd like to do this sometime, my biggest turnoff is the shower situation. I know I can go to planet fitness or whatever but not being able to take a long ass shower on a whim in my own home is a pretty big turnoff for me.
I rent for a cheap. I infinitely spend less than you likely do on gas/your memberships.
>"live in a modified van"
That kind of reminds me of what Finnish YouTuber FFcossag did with his Nissan Vanette.
youtube.com
I actually live like this, but an SUV instead. Its pretty comfy, all amenities are within arms reach. I can cook anf boil noodles anytime I want with a camping stove. I use water bottles as pee bottles. I park near a gym so i can shower every night and just drive to work in the morning. If i really want to use my laptop I just drive to a starbucks and not pay for anything, or the public library. Cops will bother you, only if people specifically call on you. It's happened once before and that scared the shit out of me, so i just park outside a fedex shipping center. There's always cars outside their building since they got vehicles coming in and out all night and I guess some work graveyard shift. My gf comes ovrr frequently and we fuck anytime she can, I get a lot of privacy since I've lined the windows with black plastic bags so no one can see inside.

3k van + 7k in mods = 10k total
oh boy it sure would be pretty unfortunate if some roastie hag would crash into your house for no good reason...
Every time you leave the van, to shower or work or whatever, you will be constantly worried about every single thing you have on earth not being there when you return.
This
>nigger decides to punch the window for fun
>steals whatever he wants from inside
I can say from experience even thots that want to cheat on their boyfriends with me want to know I have shit together enough to have a real place
>Laptop is gone
Good thing I backed up to a HD hidden in the glove box
>Van is gone
Don't ever drink.
In most states, just being in a vehicle while intoxicated, even if it's parked and not running, is grounds for a DWI arrest.
States with forfeiture laws will seize the vehicle and sell it.
lmao yeah, niggas can steal your entire fucking house LMAO
where do you live in ontario that your rent is 490? or do you have roommates?
>Get into big accident
>Now you're homeless and lost every possession to your name
Not to mention I'm not a poorfag, like you are. I can afford a real home. U jelly?
No, I live in a camper I renovated into a tiny house while saving up to buy land to build a big house one day.
