Hi,
Solo male and solo male dog traveling down route 66 from NYC to LA in a bare bones Van conversion completed with zero experience, short amount of time and little capital.
The car is a Nissan NV200 mini cargo van, used but new to me. I fitted the car with repurposed gear and minimal planning. The inspiration for my build was born from RU-vid videos, I'm proud to finally contribute my own!
Thanks and kind regards,
Jack, the Lost Boy

No glam just go! I like it! I've been slowly putting together my build with a big ford E350 with the mighty yet super hungry V10 under the hood for more utility. It's running a low solar power system just to charge battery packs and run power tools on the fly but I keep a camping cot, sleeping bag, 2 coolers, and a camp stove in it just in case

Does anyone experience excess moisture in their Nv 200? I also have one with no windows in back. Cool van, but terrible insulated in my exp. Any suggestions are more than welcome.
@SoulQuJo
@SoulQuJo 2 месяца назад
Hey, I use wind deflectors / rain guards on my two side windows so that I can keep them open a crack without people knowing. The airflow when both windows are open keeps most of the moisture away and prevents my car from getting too stuffy. With a little USB fan the set up is a cheaper method than the big roof vent. These are the exact ones I have but you could just search "wind deflector + your van model" on amazon or auto parts store of your choosing; amzn.to/4aplxKs

You won't allow your dog on your bed, so his life is relegated to under the bed and on what little floor space is left. That's no way for a dog to live. Maybe at this point in your life, dogs should not be living by your "rules". You shouldn't have a dog. That's cruel.
