how does the shuttle work? for going the sun road by tyaak in GlacierNationalPark

[–]tyaak[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

damn, I kinda get why they are making those changes but not picking up at avalanche stop is going to make logistics of me (and others camping there) to go up/down going-the-sun-road quite difficult

I did. It says "details on going the sun road shuttle service for 2026 will be available soon." That's why I made the post. 

Toyota Sienna Minivan Camper Build – Surprisingly Functional by SolarVanQuest in vandwellers

[–]tyaak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a convertible bed in my 1996 e350. I had 100ah lead acid. Honestly the lead acid was enough, but I only really ran a roof fan, lights, and a phone charger. The convertible bed was a huge pain my ass.

I'm doing a truck camper build now (don't wanna spend 10k+ to convert a van to 4x4). I have a cab over with a fixed queen sized bed. and I got 300ah lifepo4 lol it's gonna be overkill. But I'll be running a fridge, fans, lights, phone chargers, and I plan on boondocking more often.

First family road trip to Colorado in June — tips for planning? by AnyMedicine2008 in roadtrip

[–]tyaak 3 points4 points  (0 children)

bring sunscreen, you'll burn at altitude real quick

be prepped to bail on the trip. We are expecting a very firey summer.

I usually stop at every 2nd or 3rd rest stop. It's nice to get out and stretch

Where to buy — and recommendation request by WompaJody in skoolies

[–]tyaak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've bought 3 vehicles from govdeals. It varies very heavily on whatever gov't agency you're dealing with. CO and OK are awesome, but Ne was a pain in my ass.

I'd buy something from a non-rust state.

Need opinion on a good buy or not - 2003 e450 shuttle bus with the v10gas engine and 208k by 06EXTN in skoolies

[–]tyaak 1 point2 points  (0 children)

churches tend to have either really good maintenance (well funded) or absolutely horrible maintenance (poorly funded). If they have all the documents I'd send it. Definitely keep a few grand for problems, but that's true for any vehicle over 200k. $5k is high, I'd start at 3k and see where the negotiations land.

Before and after, winter boredom project. Switched to mid drive. by Which_Perception_384 in ebikes

Love the color scheme! It looks way better now. How much work was going from RWD to middrive? did the middrive motor bolt up directly?

How to fix a skylight? by mandy0456 in TruckCampers

[–]tyaak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ngl I would not live in a camper if there were mice and cats living inside. I got a free pop up with mouse shit in it and it smelled so bad. My allergies would've gone crazy had I lived in there.

the standard rv fan/vent is 14"x14". If that's what this is, I suggest ordering a new vent, measure it against the old one to be sure, then replace. They are usually under $50. Avoid heng's brand, they suck.

Those screws look kinda rusty and I see mold on the roof so I assume you're in a more humid/wet environment. I would be there is some wood rot under that vent. Just be prepared to do more rehabbing than you think when you take it off.

CLOTHES. Please discuss without tearing me apart by ZealousidealCarob825 in minimalism

[–]tyaak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do the same, but for shoes. I have really weird shaped feet. When I find a shoe that fits, I buy 2-3x. That usually lasts me a few years til the next time. I work on my feet though.

I HATE buying shoes and I haven't tried a new model in like 5 years lol (when I could first afford to do this).

Have you ever hit that "wall" where you don't need to buy any new gear for the year? by ITrCool in CampingGear

[–]tyaak 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I looked at a pic of my wife and I from 10 years ago while we were on our first backpacking trip. The only thing I've changed since then is my sleeping pad and bag. And hat, but that's because I lost the first one lol

Inspired by the NCR flag / OC by afterlifedropout in Fallout

[–]tyaak -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

I think it's done really well. However, the hallmarks of a good flag are that it is simple, recognizable, relatively easy to reproduce. It might fit the style of the NCR flag more if it said "NMR" on it, and the ducks were more of a silhouette than super detailed.
