    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West Truck recommendations?

    I know this has probably been discussed before, but I was looking for recommendations based on my circumstances. The only "must" at this point is that it must have 4WD. I will be taking some pretty rough roads, with lots of rocks and washboard, but I won't be scaling boulders or anything...

    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West Quick question, what is this?

    This is from Kodachromes thread, this is his rig. That flap that runs from the top of the camper to the front of the windshield... is that to lower wind resistance? I was thinking about this the other day, how the wind will get caught in that gap between the camper and the truck. This...

    I have seen utility companies that have E-350 4x4 diesel vans with a raised roof, that would be an awesome platform for a camper. There are also Quigley 4x4 vans. You might me able to get your Sportsmobile dream for A LOT less money if you keep your eyes open. These vans are also made as...

    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West Hi everyone! New guy here looking for advice

    Yeah, great job guys. All I need to add is welcome! :rolleyes: Great responses everyone, thank you very much! I'm definitely leaning more towards a popup at this point, but the benefits of a hard side are still tempting me. I don't have kids yet, but I think my wife would probably be more...

    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West Is the Keystone model worth the extra money?

    There's an extra foot of space, but there is also 200+ more pounds of weight, and pretty much the same interior as the Grandby. I like how the Grandby model is flush with the bumper in 8' beds. The Keystone sticks out a little (but not a lot). Anyone have any opinions on these two models...

    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West Anybody home-brew?

    I've been brewing my own beer for about 4 years now. I started off with extracts and eventually moved on to all grain brewing.
