I'm not sure what exactly my next steps are. I'd much rather get an older Class B RV with many of my requirements, but I'd be willing to put in a lot of work and do a full conversion with a van or box truck. Ideally I can find something in the middle and upgrade myself.
Requirements:
- For Class B or Van, $30k or under total budget
- Be able to get to living area from driver/passenger area
- 6'0 person can stand upright when cooking
- Bed for 2 people (57"W+x77"L+) with enough height for sexy times
- Space for 2 people to sit to eat or work on a laptop
- AC/heat (expect temperature ranges to be 20-100F)...won't likely go anywhere extremely cold
- At least 1 window in back
- Exhaust fan
- Flushable toilet
- Shower
- Kitchen sink
- Gray/black water tank
- Refrigerator
- Microwave
- Stove/burner
- Water and shore power electrical hookup
- Better than 12 MPG
- Under 20.5' long
- Fully insurable
Nice To Haves:
- Will paint totally gray or white
- Look somewhat industrial for stealth
- 4x4 (not AWD)
- Outdoor shower if real dirty or for dishes
- Front seats swivel
- Solar (Don't really care about generator)
- Ability for car to power batteries
- Small oven
- Slim tall fridge/freezer
- Space under bed for storage ideally in back
- Two doors on back to access storage and bed in back raised up
I guess I'm just looking for some thoughts on:
- Specific year/models so I save searches for on CL and ebay?
- Other websites besides RV trader to keep an eye open?
- Any recommendation for people that are good with spec'ing/designing upgrades/conversions?
- If you feel really strongly that I need a trailer RV (I have a 2005 Silverado 1500) due to my budget I guess I'd be willing to consider it...what brands are worth looking for?
Thanks everyone!
