Im sick of seeing all these "hipster" bitches post pictures and photos of their insta perfect vans on the internet like pic rel.

In reality, these builds take a shitload of time and money and at times seem completely impractical.

Im wondering though... is vanlife/vehicle dwelling a complete meme or is it actually somewhat feasible? Ive tried it in the past attempting to create a chevy astro camper, but it was so cramped it made it completely impractical. Im a homebody by nature too, which only complicates things more, as I need somewhere I can sit in and do nothing.

The most practical thing Im considering is purchasing and old U-haul or box truck, and converting that. I think it would effectively provide me with both stealth capabilities as box trucks are used commonly by businesses and the ability to have a space that I can comfortably relax in, granted Im able to properly keep the thing climate controlled.

I also do not plan on building this out at all, and am instead going to go for a utilitarian approach and will try to get all my necessities fulfilled in the bare bones cheapest way possible- think bare insulated walls and Tupperware containers for clothing.

The most important thing to me is ensuring that I have a constant and reliable connection to the internet. I plan on fulfilling this need by upgrading to an uncapped unlimited phone plan and using a newer generation Samsung phone as a mobile desktop workstation. This subject requires more research but I'm pretty sure its feasible.

Thoughts and reactions?
