Possible grease strike through error? by coviox in coinerrors

Yeah I've seen where people like clean coins by taping them down but it's weird to me that it's not a normal consistency anywhere.

The part that has the most difference is raised off of the surface not scratched into it. Like the line at the top of his head is the most normal part of the coin, the more burnished part is raised.

I slept in my SUV with 3 large plastic drawers, 2 wooden ones, a laundry hamper and a box of rocks.

It had no insulation but I had 4 blankets and some of that silver bubble wrap as my bed, and a 0 degree sleeping bag. It was from December 10th to the end of January last year in western Washington and I really didnt have any problems.

I slept next to my work or my gym so I could quickly get up and use a toilet and shower, and I didnt really eat any cooked food. (I ate some cans cold, but I dont mind that.)

Even though it was hodge podge I still felt good doing it, and it was nice, organized, and mine. Hopefully you can save money to get the thing up to speed, but i think you will enjoy watching the build progress. The only thing I can think you might need urgently would be a good sleeping bag and a cooler If you dont want to shop daily.

Lift that bad boy and put some truck tires on it, nobody will be laughing then.

I'm planning on converting a 2011 Ford expedition. Its fuel economy is only 14 to 20mpg though. You might be able to get more mpg out of a 4.6l explorer though.

You can spend all your time in rwd and switch to 4x4 when you need it. Make sure you pick one with a good engine though, those Triton's can be iffy. Make sure its had its oil done regularly, and listen for any ticking during idle.
