This is so perfect! You have inspired me! My husband is a travel nurse, and we have 2 RVs, but he loves taking his van instead so he can stealth park right in the hospital's parking lot and decks. Don't tell anyone, but he even works at one hospital where he backs right up to a concrete wall with an electric outlet! There he can plug in his ac or heater, a tv and charging station. He is a veteran nurse with 25 years experience, and loves his job. And he makes so much more money than I do, even tho we both have Associate Degrees. Worked our way thru college many years ago, but his degree has paid 3x the amount I can make. So I am going back to school and getting a LPN so I can quit working as a paralegal and travel nurse with him for a few years till we retire.

I just came back from a over 25 day road trip. Not knowing from one state to the other what the weather was going to be I brought two different coats. To store them I put them in pillow case and tied the ends. They made excellent pillow to prop up with at night to watch a video. They tucked neaty between my cot and the sliding door of my van. Got the idea off of one of Bob Wells videos.

Now I know. Everything has a purpose.. Love the recliner... makes me laugh because I've always said I sleep better on the couch than I do at night in bed.

The only thing I would probably add is installation and a travel refrig (she would have plenty of solar to run it) but she doesn't seem to need those. That's what I would get is an empty van that I would set up, pretty much like hers. God bless her. Smart lady.

I ABSOLUTELY LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this setup. I've had numerous orthopedic surgeries & slept in a recliner for 15 yes. I have reclining seats in my van (which I have not been able to start out yet because of medical reasons), but this would work better & be FAR MORE comfortable! Darn, now I'm going to have to find somebody to help me redo my floorplan because this is the bomb!!!🤯😊😄😂 Once again... THANKS BOB for finding & showing us all types of options to make this lifestyle work no matter what your personal challenges &/or obstacles may be. We love you!💖

Vanessa, I am working to get a van soon (I hope), and have been concerned about being able to keep my “Lazy Girl” recliner Dad bought me years ago. Even my cat likes it to curl up in. Thanks for your example and enthusiasm for the independent lifestyle you have - a true inspiration. I live in the East, (Tn, N.C., S.C and N.Ga.) where I love to go camping and enjoy the serenity of the mountains as well as the sandy beaches. My camping hobbies also include gold prospecting, gem mining and photography in warmer weather and quilting in the cold weather. Sounds like a great retirement plan to me👍😸🤟On the road again!

You're awesome Vanessa! I really admire your ingenuity in coming up with your no-build build. I'm a 71 yr old Hoosier and my wife and I do pickup truck (with a cap) with a no-build build also. We love the simplicity. Your setup though is much more comfy. Great interview Bob and Venessa.
