Can we have a westfalia thread?
short wheelbase
stove sink and fridge
top pops up to sleep up to four
cupboards full of camping gear so you dont even have to pack.
chicks think you are cool and outdoorsy
can have lunch or sex with coworkers in the company parking lot and no one suspects a thing.

maintenance cost is ridiculous for those things. an old school micro bus would be cheaper to repair.

If you have no tools or skills they will be tough to own.
You need to be a part of an online community since mechanics these days just scratch thier heads when you pull up.

Most parts are not that bad these days.
Lots of aftermarket stuff.
Most of the OEM is NLA so aftermarket places have filled in.
Auto zone has everything from alternators to water pumps to half shafts with lifetime guarantees .
Harder to work on that an old Chevy but much easier than a newer car.
You can also buy kits to install Subaru or ford motors now.
Pretty big support community.

Unrealistic unless rich.

Else you're just better buying generic box-van and converting it.

Cost you much less in buying one, let alone maintaining one.

Literally most uninformed post I've seen today. Comparatively, western culture is the cleanest, most environmentally friendly and in many areas, the U.S. is leaps and bounds beyond anyone else in the preservation of forestland, natural habitat, and native species. Man I wish this board had flags.

Then be a bro and quit talking shit. Northamerifags should be sticking together. We fucked shit up here for a bit, but we're doing a pretty damn good job of fixing it, compared to most of the world. Bandwagoning on the America sucks train just makes you look stupid and Ill informed, mr Mckenzie.

Indeed, the West invented the concepts of conservations and environmentalism.

If had been left up to the Asians, Latinos or (God forbid!) Africans, the planet would be a burned out cinder today.

Canada has these things in spite of Canadian's actions, not because of them
in terms of conservation Canada has some of the lowest investment rates in sustainable energy and the highest per capita carbon footprint in the world

as if you can say shit anyways living in Toronto, likely Brampton

Oh you mean like wind turbines? Which don't have any return on investment and are highly subsidized by taxpayers? Or maybe tidal turbi es which do little more than kill fish?

yea we waste money on shit like this so the government can have some meaningless statistics to wave around

sad too because Ontario especially and Canada in general has huge uranium reserves and new nuclear plants/actually putting some investment into updating the existing ones (one) would go a long way and be hugely profitable, not to mention revitalizing northern mining communities
