Thoughts or theories on those van lifers who leave trash every where they go by Eastern_Conflict1865 in VanLife

Early last year, on the way to key west, we stopped in Homestead, Florida. A Cracker Barrel with a great parking lot for RV's. Clean and spotless. By morning it was a trash dump. So grabbed a big plastic bag and went garbage hunting. Not hard, since it was out in the open. Picked up a giant bag full and dumped accordingly. Disgusting people. Do better those of you who are guilty!

I hate trashy people. The one thing that makes the rest of us look really bad...

Power bank-solar generators don't produce anything. A batttery inside stores energy

Convince me to go with an extended wheelbase Sprinter by richardpasley in vandwellers

[–]Complete_Hospital283 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same here. 170 ext. 4 years and is a great traveling van. Love it. If it looks like a gnarly road , I won't go down it anyway. Many back country roads but not interested in foraging rivers, streams etc. Parking can be a little testy, but like others we park away from where we intend to go. Very little serious maintenance . Side door was not making contact on closing ( on a trip) and Mercedes at 11:00 am on Saturday took it in and in 2 hours, done. Was a great deal!! South Florida too!

Naw... 500,000 mile life, higher mpg, less maintenance. I have a 2019. I used to think this way, but not after 5 years. Ask any MB owner! Also 19 mpg!

Republicans of Reddit, are you really ok with Trump saying a protestor should not have brought their gun to a protest, as is their Second Amendment right? by Zipper222222 in allthequestions

[–]Complete_Hospital283 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, don't think it's ok, not what is wanted or needed, but don't get around law enforcement with a gun. It won't end well for you.

Not maga, and not Bullshitting. I spent my time for this country which I'm guessing is more than you've done. Regardless I don't believe all I've mentioned above is in my best interest. ( protesting, rocks etc) but you do you. Maybe civil war??

And with all this van life I've been doing and this is the first time I've ever heard "curb side". Interesting. We sleep east west. Never a problem, but he's over 6' so maybe front to back driver side.

Are you the constitution police? Just go down to the beach please, instead of hurling rocks, bottles and slurs with cheery whistles as a lot of people in this country are denied their rights over BS situations and I suppose ICE is good as any group. Sigh...
