One of the things our household is doing to get through covid is watching vanlife videos. We both want to travel more when we can. We want to do it inexpensively and vanlife seems great. We currently own a commuter car and a pick up. The small pick up was previously owned by my Dad who passed away and I know that I'm sentimental but I'm hoping to drive it to the ground. I think it could be used for camping in it but my spouse doesn't. Well....my mother has just purchased a new to her vehicle and when she moves south will sell her late model high mileage minivan to us for $1200. She's owned it for probably 12 years and we know the history. If we can travel with this van for one to three summers, it will be perfect. It will help us learn if the dreams we have about vanlife are reality. Is this something we want to invest more into? There's an outfit here that rents van conversions like we dream about but for just a week it's nearly $1000 and granted there will be more costs associated with buying my mom's van like outfitting it, insuring it and garaging it, it will be a really inexpensive trial without huge drawbacks except maybe a breakdown. Those are solvable.
