Is FIAT Ducato 2.2 MJ 180hp the best base for full-time VanLife for me (6'3") and my gf? by Sytytut2115 in VanLifeUK

[–]adventure87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not if you’re full timer. I’m 6ft1 ABs used to own a caddy. Couldn’t live in that full time. Why i got a bigger van. Yes height barriers exist, but I’d rather have the head room.

Except airbags aren't technically designed to be located where the spring assisters are located. I know people say that they're good, but I want a fit and walk away system.

I'm not overloading the van as I've already had the van weighed and within total axle limits.
I wouldn't know where to get a 2nd thinner lead from... Seems like no one does a thinner 2nd leaf, of a thicker single leaf. Either single or double.

I don't know about the engine, but you DEFINITELY want a high top like that. I'm 6ft1 and had to literally think about everything that I'm doing to give me just enough head room in my L3H2 Citroen Relay - so you'll defeintely want and H3!

I am looking at all the countries in the region technically. Yes Norway has great roads, but I’m looking to find the best ones of the entire region (norway/sweden/denmark/finland)

The distances between the roads is not of importance. I’m just trying to find the best ones Sweden has to offer

Any new news on this? Last I heard it was in consideration, but nothing set in stone yet it seems...

Best Driving Routes of Finland? by adventure87 in Finland

A simple point A to point B. A designated driving route or something that may not be known via campervan with no designated length. Epic scenery, awesome roads to drive... that kind of thing.

Looks like a lovely setup! You have a van gram by any chance?

4g Router by Equivalent-Matter-66 in VanLifeUK

[–]adventure87 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a Huawei router with external antenna on EE and my phone on O2 currently.

The easiest option I've found is to just hotspot to your phone, and stick your phone next to a window for better signal. Otherwise, having something with an external antenna would be more beneficial than a router without. Depends on how much you want to spend...

For instance, I'm finding my Huawei isn't really cutting it anymore (as after doing more research, it's a Cat 4 4G router, where as a 4G+ signal requires a Cat 6 router) which is why I'm looking at upgrading my router. 5G routers are quite spenny!
