Anyone ever buy a cheap van and travel across the country?

Why does it have to be a van?

Cause I'll be living in it. I'm poor.

My brother drives this bad boy around the country to mini tour tournaments.

That thing is fly as frick.

All the time.

I had an uncle that made a road trip cross country in an old van. He had a lot of engine problems, but really enjoyed it.

A friend of mine did that about 25 years ago. I would get postcards every couple of weeks from random places. He said he had the time of his life. He finally ended up staying in Austin, Texas and as far as I know he's still there. I haven't heard from him in years.

I know someone from high school that did something like that, but he bought a motorbike and planned on going to California for the summer. He did ride the motorbike to California, but he never did come back to Louisiana, except for short, occasional visits with his family. He's been living out there for 30 years.

VaN like that certainly isn't going to be cheap. Maybe a 1999 Chevy passenger van with rusted floor boards and 234k miles on it from hauling fruit pickers from one grove to the next.

They break down that easy?

A van like that is very expensive.
