We're not homeless, we're houseless! By choice or by circumstance we are living in our vehicles. Don't worry about us -- it can be a very good life.
Anything that affects us as vehicle-dwellers is probably on topic.

rules of engagement
- be civil
- use descriptive thread titles. Pro tip: "Help" or "Question" are not descriptive titles.
- old-timers: assume people are different and have different needs, preferences, budgets, and use cases
- newbies: demonstrate effort and willingness to learn; you'll need it on the road anyhow. Links have been added below to help get you started. When asking question state your "use case" (what you are trying to accomplish); we are terrible guessers.
- tire-kickers: yes, we've heard that "in a van down by the river" joke. It was hi-larious in 1993.

MODERATORS
Downvoters are encouraged to post reports of their own vanlife experience. In my case, I cooked a lasagna in the crockpot in the parking lot of a rec center.
I can't speak for anyone else but as a person who randomly had this come up in their feed, I'm downvoting you because it's extremely boring; I don't give a fuck, I don't want to see it in my feed. What's next? A post about how your toothbrush bristles are looking a little wavy tonight?
Why are you putting so much personal info on whatever this hellhole is that you linked to?
Don't worry, I'm blocking the community so it doesn't happen again.
Thank you for your feedback.
I get around this problem by reading

instead oflocal
orall
. As for me, I would not choose to see everything then downvote a niche community's post because I thought it was boring. Related.Because the hellhole in question is a personal blog. Perhaps it was a trick question.
That seems entirely reasonable if one is commited to viewing the
all
feed. To make doubly sure, I'll block you from the community. I don't know if this will help keep it out of your feed but it's worth a try.
