New Adventurer from North Carolina
Hi All, excited to be here and I hope everyone is enjoying the start to 2019.
I've been lurking in the background for a while studying all the great information that gets exchanged. I've been researching how to implement my dream to start living my life on the road in a Class B. I've spent my life hiking and camping and have a 2001 Ford Windstar that I converted to a camping van.
My goal is to work camp, traveling with the seasons. I've been studying B's so long I think my head will explode yet I never actually taken one for a test drive. Just walked around inside them at shows. I'm not able to afford a new coach but would like it to be less than 10 years old.
Important to me:
1) Sometimes, I find myself wandering off-road to boondock. Most of the B's, with the exception of the Sportsmobile, tend to be pretty low. Nothing crazy but something that can withstand some ruts and not bottom out (like the Hymer).
2) A wet bath with a flushing toilet. Have tried to get my mind around the cassette and composting toilet but just can't.
3) Something that looks subtle as I want to blend in with my environment and not stand out.
4) Solar
I truly look forward to all the years of experience out there and advice you can throw my way. I'm sure I won't launch this life perfectly but would like to be as prepared as possible.
Thanks for letting me be part of the team!
