Hey! That's exactly what I want! That would be so cool to have a short tall van. What do they call it or how do I find one used in the US? As for the 4x4, we're thinking maybe we could get by without it. We're planning to head around the US and Mexico, and maybe further. Accustomed to...

Hey All! Hubby and I are exploring dropping our desire for 4x4 and just looking for a diesel van. Preferably we'd like something that is sturdy enough and rides high enough to traverse bumpy dirt roads, but it doesn't have to really go off road. Something the size of the astro seems like it...

2wd-4wd conversion That's a neat idea! How much do you think the cost would be to do a 2wd to 4wd conversion (if I don't do any of the work myself)?

I've been looking for a 4x4 diesel van or bus for my family to take on a multi-year trip through rural parts of the Americas. My husband is not a mechanic-type, so we will most likely have to take it to a shop if anything breaks down or needs replacing. I found someone near me selling a used 4x4...

Wow! I'm so happy to have found this thread! My hubby and I are planning to do a similar trip. Our kids are currently 3 years old and 3 months old, so we hope to go in about a year. Figured we'd start out in the US, head towards Mexico, and keep going as long as we're enjoying ourselves. We...

Hi All! Anybody know relative gas mileage for various diesel vans, short buses, truck-buses, etc.? Thanks!:Wow1:

wvo Our hope was that we could just have some extra tanks and collect it in one tank, then filter it into the good tank. We'd also plan to have a diesel tank to use for starting and finishing I guess. I don't know all that much, but this was the plan so far. We're in the early stages as you can...

mileage? Any idea what mileage I could hope to get from: E-350 van short bus minivan (maybe something the size of a VW but cheaper) In any case, I'd be hoping for a diesel 4x4 running on waste vege oil! Thanks for the tip on skoolie.net - looks like a great resource.

We're a family of four looking to travel the US, Central, and South America. We don't know much about our options but we do know what we need! Any input would be much appreciated! We probably will need to get something and make conversions/adjustments to it. Needs: - Exterior should blend in as...
