We just entered the Rv world a few month ago and w/ RV forum's help (mainly) we got a truck and a TT. We loved to travel w/ the trailer, but the mileage is terrible ~ 8miles/ gallon. It's also hard to drive in big cities and on crowded hwys.
I was thinking about a camper van because I've seen so many on the road to Grand Canyon. I never seen one inside or traveled w/ a hi-top van.
We don't have the money yet, but you guys taught me to buy w/ cash so if I start saving I should find out what to look for.
I found this conversion van on CL: https://topeka.craigslist.org/cto/5593085356.html or some cheaper ones that need some work.
And also this Roadtrek, but the price is much higher. https://kansascity.craigslist.org/rvs/5610603798.html or this one: http://www.rvtrader.com/dealers/A-%26-S-RV-Center-Inc-2919242/listing/1996-Roadtrek-ROADTREK-170-117508604
I'm not so handy myself, but I would try to upgrade the E-150 in time and w/ money, as they come up. How much could I expect to "invest" in a conversion van, to make it as livable as possible (mainly in RV parks, not for dry camping)?
Any major differences between the two, regarding size and height?
