I like trains. And I wouldn't have to be the one driving - I'd be the one sitting at my dining room table enjoying my postprandial bliss.
Downside is you're limited to where Amtrak goes (or having to hire a locomotive and getting permission from Union Pacific, Norfolk Southern, etc. to use their tracks)
If I wanted to go the van-life route, I'd probably order a B-Box from Advanced RV in Cleveland. They have more interior room than a Sprinter and are better insulated. Costs about the same as a railcar and currently has a year-long wait.
- rsync 4y agoThe very best answer: “I like trains.”
- euroderf 4y agoOne factual reason: trains don't sway and jostle as crudely as motor vehicles, so sleep is infinitely better. Also drinks do not spill.

ORIGIN early 19th century: from post- ‘after’ + Latin prandium ‘a meal’ + -al.
