This is the 4th time in two years I have done this thread on Sup Forums.
Brandon Peterson
nobody cares
Lincoln Thomas
What do you do for income?

is it just you?

Why do you live in a giant van/RV thing?

/thread
OP is a faggot
Joshua Morales
How expensive is shitposting on Sup Forums for you?
John Cruz
How do you pay for gas? food that sort of thing.
Ryder Scott
I suck dick for cash. Technically prostitution I know, but since I travel all around the country in my fagmobile RV the cops can't catch me! :3
Zachary Wilson
Can you explain the 318 engine injector pulse widths losing efficiency at higher altitude driving compared to the 360 of the same year?
Picture not likely to be related.
Joshua Rodriguez
Let's be honest here; why are you dodging the IRS?
James Wilson
Carpenter. Sometimes on the books, sometimes under the table. I carry tools with me and can always find work in any new area.
Because it affords me a life of flexibility that a conventional address does not. No rent, no mortgage, go wherever I want, no need to return "home" if home comes with me.
Aiden Perez
Stop impersonating me. I'm OP and I'm a roaming dicksucking male prostitute. I would never touch a tool (besides a penis.) Carpentry is for niggers.
Joshua Nguyen
Not very. The electricity is free from my solar panels, and stored in my battery bank. Right now I'm on my laptop and will be good for the night as the sun is setting.
I do pay for a mobile hotspot, which I'm using, but, could be connected to free wifi somewhere if I chose to.
Above, carpentry. Picture related, it's some carpentry I was doing (see in progress unfinished on the right).
This man does not represent me.
Joseph Williams
are you fucking shitting me
Nicholas Hernandez
OP here. I'm not a man, not since I cut my balls off and fed them to a pig.
Absolutely not. I love sucking dick. Why else would I live in and drive around in a fagmobile and make a thread on Sup Forums telling people about it?
Jayden Hall
>off grid >online >real faggot
James Morales
>Can you explain the 318 engine injector pulse widths losing efficiency at higher altitude driving compared to the 360 of the same year?
Nope. I can tell you mine's the 5.9L though.
Because they're pigfucking bastards. Actually, like I said above, a good portion of my income is on the books. I pay taxes. Probably more than a lot of people here. I report around 50k/yr. But more and more I consider going under the table entirely.
He is, yes. That's plainly obvious. He's also not me. Try to keep up.
Christopher Ross
Off grid means services (electricity, water etc). It does not mean "underground" or "off the radar." I'm not hiding from anything.
Isaac Hughes
I'm the real OP. Stop impersonating me. I know you're trying to be a bigger faggot than I am, but I assure you it's impossible.
Easton Brooks
I don't know what happened but I love it, I think my gf is cheating on me and this is really funny.
Luke Fisher
So do you make your clients wear condoms or is it an optional kinda thing? That's pretty smart reporting your pole smoking income as carpentry work.
Charles Butler
What’s all that shit hanging off your van?
Blake Watson
Then why are even on here if you can't answer a simple question.
Fucking turd burglar.
Caleb Ramirez
Indeed! And condoms are optional, of course. Some guys like them, but most don't.
That's not the OP, I am. He's lying about everything, I'm a wandering gay prostitute.
Grayson Kelly
That's cool man.
Excellent question.
As stated, I'm a carpenter. You might notice one side has ladders and shit on it. The hood has a shovel and shit. These are some of the tools I need. The more ridiculous thing on the driver's side is a custom made lumber rack of 2x4 and 2x6 bolted to the van body.... yup.
I can put 14' lumber in the back doors and close them, but I have no way to haul sheet goods inside (plywood, drywall) so I built that side rack thing. I've put all kinds of crap on it, prehung doors, etc.
Cameron Garcia
How long have you been doing this? Where have you been?
Brody Peterson
Going on four years without any kind of physical address. I'm from Vermont originally. You might have noticed the license plate. I've been all around the coastal US and back a few times, Mexico some, random places in between.
Picture is my van getting redneck shit done in a redneck place.
Sebastian Collins
Do you have a favorite place?
Ian Morris
Actually yeah. I wasn't sure for a long time but I think it's this spot right here. A quiet little beach spot surrounded by woods off Lake Champlain.
Wyatt Wood
5.9l is the 360
Adam Butler
I know that. Although, mine is different from the regular 360 apparently. I know that because when my engine blew up a couple years ago, Jasper had to re-manufacture one for me to have the correct low end torque for the additional weight.
Henry Young
Where do they send a renewal for your license tags?
Julian Clark
last time you experience an episode of flatulence?
Caleb Rogers
Will you show us the inside of your van?
Honestly, that's all I'm really interested about.
Kevin Long
True, yes, for legal reasons I have to maintain a mailing address. It's a relative's house. I use it for my license, insurance, etc. Technically that means my insurance could be revoked if they knew I didn't sleep there but meh. Mail gets sent there and I pick it up like fuckin' once a year when I'm in that part of the country. I could use a forwarding service if I cared. I don't. I hate paper. I use paperless everything for things I need. What constitutes an "episode"? Like, a single fart? Or a full day of continuous farting? Alright hold on a sec, I'll take some.
Noah Evans
Oh shit how’s Jasper these days?
Dominic Gray
Here's the back area, currently set up as a table. It turns into a bed too, but that's not the bed I sleep on.
Hudson Sanders
Damnit. Here it is.
Nicholas Thompson
Where do you shower and what does it smell like in your van/camper?
Nicholas Wright
That's a...lot of semen stains...like, seriously, a LOT. Since you say you're an expert at road head, how many dudes do you blow in the back of the shaggin' wagon? Per annum.
Kevin Nguyen
This is where I sleep, the overcab bed. It pulls out like a drawer and unfolds. Size full mattress.
Alexander Sanders
It smells like rancid ball sweat and stale semen. It's quite horrifying, actually. I try to air it out between blowings, but it's a fucking van. The ventilation is terrible. Honestly, I smell about the same, being a road hobo, but I try to at least keep my taint clean with baby wipes.
Parker Kelly
Kitchen area - sink, stove, etc
John Stewart
Neat, thanks.
Henry Harris
well, since your van is pretty easily to spot if ever encountered on the road, why not post a pic of your face, or better, full frontal view while standing next to your van.
Would like to know how you look like after 4 years of living the dream.
Kevin Sanders
The master bathroom. As I said in the first post, I have a shower. This whole area gets surrounded by that curtain and the pan and drain are in the floor. With a 12v pump and accumulator tank I have the same pressure you'd have in a house. Propane fired hot water. On board fresh water. I can be in the middle of the desert and have a hot shower. And a cold beer, too, from my own refrigerator.
Owen Martin
Your van look more civilized inside than expected and it sounds like you live a relatively comfortable life.
Xavier Morales
Your van is a piece of shit. If I see it around, I'll kick your ass and take your stuff, faggot.
Ryan Thomas
not OP, but with the two rifles he has in there, I'd actually enjoy to watch you trying.
@OP How's it going with the women? Just random flicks from time to time, or is there someone who ons your heart?
Easton Adams
Yeah man. Come find me.
You know, I do shower in here, and shave, and have rechargeable clippers, and all that.
Robert Hernandez
Looks like a nice guy. 9/10 - Would chill and share a beer with.
Luis Murphy
Ever been to canada, yukon lake specifically?
Ian Walker
you shall henceforth be remembered as the Gypsy Carpenter
Wyatt Morgan
watch out OP. atleast dont fall asleep around this guy...
Blake Wilson
Totally. I have all the amenities I need, and more freedom than those stuck in a 9-5.
Do it.
I've been fucking around a lot the last couple years, to be honest. Lost count of how many women I've been with now. Sometimes they get attached. There were two recently in the northeast who wanted me to move in with them. I told them I would leave when it got cold. I left when it got cold. I don't know what I'm doing long-term in that department, but when it happens it'll happen.
I've tried having a girl travel with me too, in a few different ways. That never goes well.
Jason Ramirez
lol I have a wife, so no danger from me in that department.
Eli Torres
Fucking kek
Nathaniel Long
>I've tried having a girl travel with me too, in a few different ways. That never goes well. That sucks. Good luck on finding the right one, one day.
Jason Flores
Can't forget my beer mural. Thanks brah. I have not, I usually go to warm places. But I could in the summer. Why?
Cooper Gomez
Any tips for someone wanting to do this? How old are you? Do you drink or drugs?
Jason Howard
Have you ever fucked a goat?
Samuel Reyes
I can work with that.
Aw, he seems legit.
Jose Cruz
>I have not, I usually go to warm places. But I could in the summer. Why? Just asking out of curiosity. Germanfag here, and I day-dreamed a lot in the past years about traveling there, build a house-boat and sail down the yukon river to the pacific ocean. One day...
Ryan Rivera
Is the "I am free from everything" thing one would expect from living like this a temporary thing or do you feel, by any means, still "free"?
John Jones
have you ever had a successful troll?
John Nelson
Do you get lonely?
Eli Rivera
I have exactly two pieces of life advice to offer anyone. 1) If you're not happy, do something different. 2) Anything you've given serious thought to, just do it, you'll regret more not going through with it.
If those two pieces of advice lead you to drifting in a van then just do it.
I'm 30, started this in my mid-late 20s. I drink, don't use drugs.
Nah.
Nathan Baker
Cool, thanks. You seem like a nice guy. Good luck out there.
Nathan Garcia
So you got a shower inside or do you just have a hose of some kind?
James Wilson
Great trip bro but next time take your thread to /out to not be called a hobo van dick sucker. What do you do on your free time?
Chase Morgan
Kind of interested in what kinds of places attract you to them, OP? I grew up in rural areas, lived in cities and then went back between the trees.
You ever come down the left side of the map?
Charles Campbell
ur a cool dude
Nolan Murphy
Can you... Teach me how to dubby, Teach me how to dubby. Make All the dubbies love me, All the dubbies love me.
Nolan Watson
Maybe... This is how you dubby, This is how you dubby. All the dubbies love me, All the dubbies love me.
Jonathan Foster
Do it!
I do still feel free. That being said, this life isn't an instant quick fix for everyone. It will be what you make it. If you're an introvert stuck in your apartment, you might find yourself an introvert stuck in your van. For me it helped me get out and about more but consider your habits and how you will make it work.
Not often. To be honest I pull a lot of pussy. Sometimes I do get tired of that and wonder when I'll find something I want to really make long-term, or if I will know it when I find it. But I don't worry about that anymore. I've sought that out before and had women give up their stuff to be with me, etc. I don't want to try to force it anymore so we'll see what happens.
Isaiah Smith
How do you maintain relationships/friendships? How do you take care of yourself medically? what does your family think about all of this?
Lucas Butler
OP i dislike your van because on the outside it looks like some sort of military vehicle...maybe because you made it yourself
Thomas Young
any special reasons why you ravel in this van specifically, or would you opt for something bigger, if ms. perfect comes around? Does your carpentry earns you enough to pay for more fuel / groceries permanently?
Evan Wood
Already answered. Here's another picture of the shower though. Yeah, idgaf though. This is what Sup Forums is about. Most of the time I'm busy - I often work 7 days/week, and have an active social life. Right now, I'm wandering the south, and taking some time to do fuck-all-nothing. Today I went target shooting. I like being outdoors, I'd rather have a camp fire than go to the bar.
Grayson Martin
> A few extra mirrors, work truck cargo haulers, and a shovel to get unstuck.
> Military.
I've never seen Marines and Soldier's doing combat patrols in Ford vans my dude.
James Wood
Did you ever have encountered faggots like this if so, how did it play out?
Aiden Nguyen
West coast? Yeah I do. Whereabouts? I've spent a lot of time in San Diego. I like it for a city, but, I prefer smaller niche areas. Medium size downs with boonies around. Preferably with a clear body of water somewhere.
Here's a picture I took a couple days ago, sitting on the roof of my van with a beer, and a lady friend in her van next to me. We were traveling together.
Thanks brah.
Henry Jenkins
Where do you park at night? Job site? Walmart? Campgrounds?
John Miller
North Coast of CA?
We got some nice boonies out here. Depends on what you're into. Colder than a dead woman's pussy in the winter. No snow though, at sea level. Weird mix of rednecks and hippies.
Cities are okay, but they're cities. The nice thing is the conveniences for me. I live in a 1800's ranch house on about .5 acres in the middle of fucking no where. Ocean on one side, mountains on the other. I'm not confident enough to post pictures but it can be picturesque.
I like those lever guns you got there, and the fact you shoot. You the kind of person that looks good meals? I've recently started getting into cooking and I imagine you would have a lot of access to tasty shit on the road all the time.
Jonathan Ramirez
how much is your income? and if you had the chance to make a six figure salary for example would you give up on the life ur living now?
Angel Ward
>How do you maintain relationships/friendships? Same way anyone does, only in shorter intervals. I still keep in touch with people by text and stuff. I don't do any social media.
>How do you take care of yourself medically? If bleeding, stop bleeding. If infected, go to Mexico and buy antibiotics over the counter for $4 without a prescription. If falling off, go to hospital.
>what does your family think about all of this? My mom is all for it. She's a crazy old hippy. My dad died before I told him. He wouldn't've approved. My brother is curious, but only from a distance.
Alright. I'm not sure I give a fuck though.
I chose this van very specifically. I wanted something 20' long and self-contained with a pass through from the cab to the living area. This fits in a parking space and is legal to park anywhere. That wouldn't be true of something bigger. I also might not be able to get a larger RV in some of the job sites I go to. I don't want something bigger. What do you mean, permanently? Like I'd be set for life? I could park my van and live for $1/day on rice and beans if I wanted to, but I like to have a better life than that. I drink a lot of good beer, I go out, I date, whatever. So no. I charge $35/hr for my work so I make decent money but you don't get rich unless you're making money in your sleep.
Daniel Reed
Heretic. It's a dodge.
You wouldn't believe how many times I've dug myself out of the desert with that shovel though.
Sometimes. Yes. People think the rifles in my van are weapons. They're not. The kid-size dented aluminum baseball bat by the door is.
Logan Johnson
Good post, OP. Really enjoyed it. Wish you all the best.
Hunter Perez
Do you have grandchildren?
Jack Phillips
Fucking shovels and skyjacks are necessary. I got a new to me vehicle not to long ago, and was testing the 4-by capability. Well, that's great when you have the offroad tires on it. Got bogged down and had to trench my shit out. Pretty good day, actually.
Christopher Davis
I never stay at job sites because that would be creepy. I never stay at campgrounds because, for one, I never pay to park. I have literally never paid to park overnight. Also because a campground is just a trailer park for people vacationing. Who the fuck vacations at a trailer park is fucking beyond me. I very rarely stay at Walmart because it's always the first thing semi-informed people think of when they think of parking for free. Similar to a trailer park, it's not somewhere I wanna live anyway, but beyond that it's not always permitted and that will be the first place police look.
Florida Panhandle. I'm from Vermont, so I know cold. And I choose to avoid it now. I'll be in the south until spring.
I do like cooking, but I don't hunt for food, I just like rifles and shooting. Glad you can appreciate the levers. The 45-70 was my dad's.
A six figure income probably wouldn't offset my expenses when I had to get a house, etc. So no. I don't want for anything now.
I'm not rich, but I have no debt and $6k in the bank, and I live in a fucking van. When I need more money I'll go get it. I can make a couple grand/week in cash.
Jose Taylor
Ahahaha!
Christopher Cook
How many miles is on your rv?
Dominic Morales
i would get a box truck if i were to live in a vehicle. more room and more incospicous.
Landon Morales
What's this?
Ayden Morris
Yeah man no problem.
I'd need children first. And I'd probably need to be old or something.
I want a limited slip differential or a locker put on the rear end. Not sure which yet. But it drives me bugshit watching one wheel spin in sand or wet grass. And this thing is fucking heavy.
Nathaniel Ward
So, you never said where you DO park...
Brody Cruz
thanks for the income related reply bro. i really like your thread. im aiming to be retired until my 40s and 50s, save up some cash, and perhaps live like you in the future.
