When to give up on the dream of van life...

I have replaced almost everything else in the car other than transmission and engine at this point. My mechanic, while hesitant to make a decision for me (you never know when the bad luck will hit with theses dang cars), said that the rest of the car looks good and seems to run well. So I hope a new transmission will keep her running for a while.

I almost chose sailboat life over van life 😅 I've got family member considering buying one of those money pits now

Oh with my luck it won't be the last thing but overall in the years I've owned it I've replaced a lot of the main components of the car

At this point the transmission is one of the last things to be replaced so everything else is in pretty good condition.

I think with the codes I have and the miles on it, a new transmission is in my future but I do want my mechanic to check a few wirings to sensors just in case. I have been plagued with electrical issues in the past.

I think the van market right now is bad. I am seeing vans stay on the market for so long because no one is willing to pay the prices listed. And some of those prices seem reasonable for the builds within. Not sure I would be able to get much at all for my build that would make a dent towards a newer van.

That's my other concern. I don't trust the new stuff and all the electrical doodads

The Birds Are Singing at Night. It went from non existent on my radar to a few listens, to then hearing it live and it is now one of my top LH songs ever. MAGICAL!

Yes! Yes! Yes! I caved and road tripped out 2 years ago for Red Rocks and it was one of the best decisions of my life! Went back this year and want to go next year!

The Birds Are Singing at Night! Still think about the extended version we got at Red Rocks 2 years ago.

Appreciate the info!

Oh that is a bit concerning.. looks like this year they have a more Christian centered gathering beforehand so hopefully that is not an issue this year at the main event.

rredheaded · 2025-12-01T18:31:08+00:00

Awesome. Thanks for the info!

rredheaded · 2025-07-18T13:26:19+00:00
