10 Things I Wish I Knew Before Buying My First Camper Van (7 Vans Later)

Описание: If you're thinking about buying your first camper van, building a van conversion, or starting van life full-time, this video is for you.

Over the last five years, I’ve owned seven different vans including multiple Winnebago Solis models, a Thor Scope, a self-converted Ford Econoline, and custom camper vans built with a van builder. After owning, building, maintaining seven vans, I’ve learned what actually matters when buying your first van and what doesn’t. I am now focused on van life travels in my Geotrek van and traveling around the country.
