Do you think this is a good idea for traveling across the country???
Mar/105
My plan is to buy a mini-van that’s about 6 or 7 years old and has just over 100,000 miles on it (less, if possible). I don’t want to spend more than $5,000 (hopefully less, like 2 or 3,000).
Then I will take out one of the seats in back so I can have more room for storage and a place to sleep. I will also take a tent and air mattress. I want to drive across the country and sleep in the tent and sometimes even in the van, and maybe every once in a while in a motel if it’s cheap enough. I will put up curtains that I can close off the entire back also if I want to. I have a navigation GPS device and I do have AAA if I need maps along the way. Also I will bring an electric cooler that acts like a fridge, and a camping stove (Coleman), plus my laptop with wi-fi.
Where can I take showers? Someone told me truck stops let you take showers but how do I know which ones have showers??? I figure I will put like 10,000 miles on the mini-van and when I’m done, I’ll sell the mini-van.
