    WTB Expedition Rig to travel the world 15k Budget

    Van, plain and simple an Astro van 4wd will fit your budget and give you the best living on the road setup. Otherwise I would go for a full size truck and camper.

    Troopy vs 105 for 3 people on same petrol engine

    Having owned a Troopy and camped often with my wife and son the only issue is that with 2 doors the backseat person has to do some climbing to get out each time you stop.
