I’m in the process of selling my van. Fortunately i have some where else to live. As this van while being as good option for some people. I was not one of them.
I strongly recommend hiring one for at least a couple of months before. Committing your self to a particular configuration. And van life in gdners
We have an electric van. It’s good because we can run the A/C or heat and electric overnight when we use it for sleeping in. It’s a 2023 Ford E Transit cargo van, which we put my sewing room in and which we also use when the weather is too rough to sleep on our sailboat. Tiny living between the 2! Thanks for your writing about van life-I appreciate it! Judi
Hi Judi, You're welcome. I wasn't aware that Ford Transit made an electric vehicle. Do you have enough solar panels to power the AC/Heating unit, or do you have to plug in to shore power? Just wondering.
Hi Carol, yes Ford came out with them in 2022 I think. The A/C and heat and frig.,etc., will run for about 2-3 nights without charging, depending on how cold or hot it is out. In the day, one can plug into a medium fast charger, which is cheaper and takes longer, thus allowing one to stay in one place for a reason. You can also charge within 40-60 minutes with a fast charger, or over a couple of days, with a regular outlet. I have a senior off season pass for WA, and in winter I can have a spot with electric for $10 a night, for up to 10 days within 30, in each of 3 parks near my town.
