This blog is to document my efforts to find, fund and prepare a rig to take my dogs and I on a trip of a lifetime. Currently still employed and enjoying weekend trips.

Ready for the new season
Well spring hopefully is on it's way and I declare my van in good shape and ready for the season.
Had a minor repair plus an oil change and gas filter change and now it's running as well as it's ever been before.
I came up with a new name Van Diesel :)
I recently drove about 150 miles and came in at a solid 15 mpg. Not too bad considering the size and weight of the vehicle. Diesel is currently 3.86 a gallon so I'm hoping to have the patience to drive 55 mph this season instead of my previous 62.
I've also logged a few hours on the interior, constantly re-arranging and adding and removing items.
I spent some big money on a Olympian Wave 6 propane heater as the little Coleman wasn't quite getting the job done. Anyone who knows me knows I don't like the cold.
Anyway... That's me in my nut shell :)
