Have some interesting vehicle pictures, but need a spot to host them? Drop me a line! A few DIY camper web pages have disappeared, and that’s a shame.


Comments?

Feedback?

Let me hear it!

 

What’s New:

 

01.04.2002: Added the following links:

Wrybread's West Coast Live-In Vehicles. If you don’t look at anything else on their site, at least take a look at the nifty stepvan home (and don’t miss it’s second page). And wouldn’t it be fun to restore this classic?

 

phred's Poop Sheets. Advice on a whole slew of RV-related topics.

 

Ever seen that (some say tasteless) bumper sticker, “Dead girlfriend in trunk”? Well, this guy put just a little extra effort into it.

 

01.03.2002: Added a link to Ghost Dancer’s new Yahoo Group:

VanDwellers. This looks promising. If it involves living in a vehicle, he’s probably either done it, seen it, or at least pondered it.

 

Also: go here and check out the Roving Land Pyramid spotted at Burning Man ’99. It’s the third picture in the first row, or just click here. It’s a Ford-based four-flat! (I call dibs on the penthouse!)

 

12.28.2001: I’m putting this site together in an effort to get organized. I have info everywhere: scattered email messages, bookmarks/links, online communities, and even scribbles on paper. Others may have the same problem. Well, here’s my attempt at a solution. CHIME IN! Share ideas and stories. Want to add websites, your experiences, maybe write an article for the site? Drop me a line!

 

Disclaimer: I’ve just thrown up the Links section without testing everything out, so I don’t know if they are all good. I’ll test ‘em and alphabetize ‘em later.  Elmo.
