    Will you subscribe to Adobe CC?

    I have used Photoshop for so long that it is scary, I have been taught by Adobe, I teach it as well as I use it daily for 6 to 10 hours a day in the studio - you could say that I REALLY like Photoshop. With all that I will not be paying for the cloud service. I am from the school that I will...

    1990 VW Westfalia Camper Synchro (not mine, from San Diego CL) $68K!

    I sold my Dad's 1989 a year ago for $6000.00 and people though that was high. It was in amazing shape and I should have held on to it as the prices seem to be climbing. Forget gold invest in VW's and store them in your garage :sombrero:

    Mitsu Fuso Camper examples

    I am starting to feel insulted, being called stupid and rabble all in one thread!!!! I will have to go camping to recover, maybe buy a new camper if the camping does not work.

    A Photographers vehicle?

    I never thought of doing this, good idea. I use the roof but have never put the jacks down when shooting.

    Storage Options for Extended Cab Trucks

    X2 on the sliding. I also have the vinyl floor, love for cleaning, hate for sliding. I got mine DuHa used and it looked like new, knowing how good it is would have bought new and paid the price without a problem.

    Storage Options for Extended Cab Trucks

    I bought a DUHA ( http://www.du-ha.com ) and I love it. Cannot believe how much space that it has once things are organized and in one place. Can even get a lock for the back seat to make it more secure. If I was going to add any more storage, and did not have passengers, I would build a box...

    OT: Who is building their rig in case of a Doomsday scenario?

    Montereyman I like your idea for a sail boat, many other good reasons for it- harder to be looted by the land locked mobs and you could put in at areas that are uninhabited. The farm is good, problem is keeping the crops for yourself until they mature. Myself my vehicle is to get me away from...

    OT: Who is building their rig in case of a Doomsday scenario?

    Do you mean having an app on your smart phone to locate the closest 7-11 so you can buy something with your debit card is not preparation? :)

    A Photographers vehicle?

    I thought of this, how does it work on wearing the paint, any issues? Seeing some of the new signs they are amazing and would solve the issue of advertising to the wrong people.

    A Photographers vehicle?

    You got some good advice so far. A lot depends on what you want to do. I have several vehicles depending on what I am shooting: - Our car is for quick trips that I am in and out of an area and will be staying on the road. 110V power to charge up computers and batteries. - The van is for...

    Hello All. My first post. Here is my simple custom GMC Cube Van conversion.

    I have read a lot of build threads, I have helped many people set up rigs to go exploring with, I have done many mods on my unit. Looking at yours cuts through all the garbage and puts it back to the basic - you get a unit and enjoy it. Many happy and safe travels, looks like you are well on...

    OT: Who is building their rig in case of a Doomsday scenario?

    Thanks for the info the reason that I am asking is that I have heard both sides, this is from the EMP commission: We tested a sample of 37 cars in an EMP simulation laboratory, with automobile vintages ranging from 1986 through 2002. Automobiles of these vintages include extensive...

    OT: Who is building their rig in case of a Doomsday scenario?

    This is going to be a little off topic but I need to ask two questions to get a better idea on EMP's: 1- I thought that an EMP burst only had an effect on equipment that was running. If you had a car sitting in the driveway not running it would not be effected? 2 - EMP is localized to a small...

    X2 - maybe put a piece of light stainless here in the future as most of the abuse will be here.

    10 VEHICLES MOST STOLEN - What else do you to do protect your truck from thieves?

    My Dad had his 1985 VW Vanagon Diesel stolen once, Police found it two blocks away, seems that the thieves didn't know about glow plugs so they pushed it to try and get it going. If they would have got it going it would only run for a few kilometers before needing to go to the garage for...

    Tent Insulation?

    A lot of good ideas. For me here is what I found; - 4 season tent made a huge difference - If only a three season(or most are more like one), I put a ground sheet over the top to cover some of the vents - Sleeping pad - A good sleeping pad will make thins so much better. Stay away from...

    Questions Concerning Building a Truck Camper

    I would also look over on RV.net. I remember a build a while ago that was done with metal but cannot remember what site it was on. We were just talking about building a TC on RV net. For your purpose I think that a build may be the way to go as you are going for a different look and use, and...
