I liked the 6 month writeup, I've seen a ton of these builds but always wondered how things went when reality set in. He did an honest job of stating the pros and cons (I've lived out of a van myself, 2 in fact, mostly in Sun's parking lot). Hey van dude, if you read this and you get to the Bay Area I've got a guest house attached to a shop like your dads. Be fun to chat and we can fix up whatever needs fixing.
