Look on yahoogroups , Vandwellers . They have a group of people interested in the van lifestyle . Both outfitting and road travel . Maybe you could get some other ideas . We are all interested in travel adventures .

I have a friend with a Ford 7.0 Diesel at 110K mikes he is having to replace injectors at $450.00 each and $650.00 for the lift pump not including labor . You pay for a diesel .
