I've been thinking about a used van as the most affordable entry-level into solo full-time RVing. I wouldn't even do much to convert it, apart from removing the seats. I'd just add:
A portapotty
A lighter adaptor for charging small electronics
A little ceramic heater to warm the place up for bedtime or first thing in the morning
A 12V electric kettle and "lunchbox oven" for non-cold meals
A camp stove for whenever I can cook out in the open
A cooler for icing things down in the summer
Maybe some extra carpeting or other non-permanent insulating material on the walls (or maybe not)
A futon mattress and/or sleeping bag
A couple of battery-powered LED lanterns
Wash bucket for sponge baths
A folding TV table and folding chair
My laptop, of course ;D
When I'm ready to move on to a trailer, maybe I could just add a hitch to the van and let the van become my "walk-in closet"....
(I'd be saying in RV parks with hookups about 50 percent of the year, so I might occasionally have access to more perks than this. but I wouldn't necessarily NEED them.)
What do you think? Doable?
