I had the most legendary experience renting a camper van and driving all
over the southwest. Now I’m back and depressed.

What would /out/ recommend I buy (eventually?) Note I drive a shitty 3 series bmw and would need a new car.

>tear drop trailer
>camper trailer
>camper van
>smaller RV

The whole 'van life' thing is a phase that will become uninteresting about three months in. It can definitely be fun so I still recommend people give it a shot but just be mindful of the fact that you'll most likely be trying to sell your purchase down the road.

SO, you should definitely not buy anything specialized like a built out camper van or a camper trailer or any of these things which are largely useless on the secondary market. What you want is a generic cargo van with a fairly minimal buildout inside (wooden bedframe, table, light electronics setup, etc...). Don't go cutting holes in the roof and shit for ventilation or solar; it's all a meme that will hurt your re-sale value and cost you money. The idea is to be able to rip all this shit out in a day so you can sell your cargo van and get out of the sport with little to no loss. Cargo vans hold their value incredibly well; they are so well commoditized that you can sell these things sight unseen at market rate within seconds.

Has anyone here bought some old van, built it up as a camper, and then sold it?

Wondering if this could be profitable, and what would be a good vehicle to start with.

I'm pretty sure demand is through the roof, and not everybody has the skills/time to build one themselves.

Maybe, I would buy one because I'm not handy and a new camper van costs $175,000.

It might be hard to get a decent van though to build on,, the retards managing the economy are such incompetent that Used vehicle prices are up 54% in the last year. Maybe try to build one and see if you can make a decent product maybe you could make a business out of it

What are the point of these posts? They aren’t clever or interesting. Just a bitter fag spending too much time here and feels the need to shit up another thread on another board to generate a modicum of dopamine.

Toyota hybrids are underrated. The prius has too low of ground clearance for me, but Rav4 hybrid gets you just under 40 mpg. Just attach a teardrop trailer and have a functional car that make your spawn think you bought it from a soccer mom milf instead of raping dirty drug transvestites in a candy van.

okay, you clearly know what you are talking about. what do you think of the NV 250? Im honestly thinking about buying one as a daily driver and fitting some basic storage compartments and a yeti cooler for trips.

I donno where you get the idea that they hold their value well, i daily drive a cargo van and i bought it for less than 20g with less than 20k miles on it, vans are cheap and expecting anything near what you paid is going to set you up for failure

You don't buy shit like that as a financial investment though.
You get value out of shit like that by using it and making memories for yourself to enjoy when you're too old to do that shit anymore.

I live in the back of my toyota FJ for right now. It’s really tight even with the seats removed, I’m 6’4” and sleep on the ground unless it’s rainy out. A 4runner would be nice if you can afford it. I think that’s bare minimum.

The resale value of work vans goes hand in hand with where you live. In my area cube vans, Ford rape wagons and small Transits cost pretty much the same brand new all the way to 50,000km. By 150,000km you're only looking at 50% of MSRP

Dude, you cheered when Walmart opened in your town. You bought all the cheap crap you could get your hands on. Globalism wasn't "forced" on you, you welcomed it with open arms.
