  Hello van people
Posted by: WanderingKathy - 04-10-2018, 08:13 PM - Forum: Welcome Center - Replies (10)

Thank you for having me here. I accidentally came across this website. I'm new to forums. This is my first one. I was forced to live in a truck camper that is mounted on a truck. My husband passed away last year and since he had remortgaged the house and the people came and made me leave. So now it is just me and my three cats. Well was three but one of them had 6 kittens. They are so cute. I get by on a little income from my social security. My grandson lets me park in his pasture by the barn. The cats are very helpful for the mice. They seem to like it in here too. I hope everyone is nice here. I only want to meet other people and wee how they survive in small places like me.

God Bless, Kathy

This is from the Wicked Bitch of The South  ?  I must be banned from the Van Dweller Forum.  That is the only reason I can think of becuz.....I've tried for THREE DAYS and jumped thru all the systems hoops while going thru the process of getting a new password.  I don't know how many times I've done a "Contact Us' message.  Silly me I thought if I Contact someone they will get in touch with me.  Oh well my thinking is what got me where I am today.........I ain't going there.

 My apt.  didn't pass the inspection.  Surprisingly I'm OK with it and so is the Housing Administrator.  This was the first time we had met.  We talked for some time & now she knows how stressed I can get & that I do not like strangers in my home.  

Also how sick I was for months and had almost all physical activity curtailed for 4 months.
 I do not think I'll be getting better re; my back and neck issues

 So I don't need to stress out about folks just showing up at my door { I will anyway, maybe not so much}.
 As long as things in my apt. are good within 6mo,  before the HUD inspection I'll be OK.  She did ask that I clean off my front porch and take care of my flower beds as soon as possible.  She said I could  call her if I want one of the guys to come down to dig up anything or move anything for me.   The first staff member in 8ys that has offered help.  
I like working with my plants when I can bend over.  

My gardening style is called "Rampant".
.. I may not even be here in 6mo☺

Jewellann

ps   I've asked Gunny to post this for me here.  So if you're reading this you know why it's been quiet here.

  Used Truck Camper
Posted by: Optimistic Paranoid - 04-10-2018, 10:52 AM - Forum: Passenger - No Replies

Truck Camper Magazine has just published a very interesting article on how to inspect a used truck camper you are interested in buying.

BTW, I'm pretty sure that most of the tips would also apply to used travel trailers and motorhomes, as well.

Posted by: Optimistic Paranoid - 04-07-2018, 11:13 AM - Forum: Links/Apps - No Replies

Mountain Directory started out as two books published for over-the-road truckers, but also became immensely popular with RV'ers.  They still publish the books, but also now have an app version for both Android and ios, as well as an ebook version for use on desktops and laptops.

For those of you hanging out in Arizona, their AZ info is online as a free sample here:

  Tapatalk issues?

My Tapatalk has unsubscribed me from all my subscribed topics, all my previously replies to threads and all the threads I started. I am also only seeing about half of the pictures posted.

Is anyone else having difficulties?

  Standard vs Auto for towing?
Posted by: TrainChaser - 04-06-2018, 10:33 PM - Forum: Passenger - Replies (11)

I would like some opinions on the tranny for a van that might have to tow something up to a lighter-weight 20-ft trailer.

It seems that every van I've ridden in that did tow something had a standard transmission.  Does a standard do a better job than an automatic?

  Plugins...
Posted by: AbuelaLoca - 04-06-2018, 07:06 PM - Forum: Forum Issues/Suggestions - Replies (20)

We are looking into adding some features to the forum... One is a "First unread post" button and another is "Live chat". While I'm digging around and learning how to add these, we thought we'd let y'all scroll through other features and make suggestions. Here's a link to the plugins that can be added: https://community.mybb.com/mods.php?acti...ry=plugins, please keep in mind that not all suggestions will be added because some plugins don't play nice with others. Also, I will announce when I'm adding one because there's always a possibility it will take the site down! Since I'm up all night, I will probably add them when most of you are sleeping.
