How and why to live in a car, van or RV, and learn to love it! There are two main reasons you might buy a book on living in a vehicle 1) You're being forced into it by a bad economy, divorce, or unemployment, or 2) The "American Dream" has become a nightmare for you and you are dropping out of the rat race. Whatever your reason, this book will tell you everything you need to make it the best possible experience it can be. We'll cover details like which vehicle to live in and how to find it, where to park, staying clean, going to the bathroom, how to cook in a van, get out of debt, survive any bad economy, travel on a budget, how to get your mail, how to stay comfortable in the heat and cold, how to get electrical power, and so much more I can't list it all here.
You may be asking yourself, does this guy know what he is talking about or is he just out to make quick buck with another crummy book? That fact that I've been living in a vehicle for over 10 years should ease your mind. But you can find out for yourself by going to my websites to see if I have information you may want cheaprvliving.com, cheapgreenrvliving.com, cheaprvlivingforum.com and my blog at cheaprvlivingblog.com.
I love my , but I have to admit that I've bought some books that I read in a short afternoon and thought "Where's the beef?" There just wasn't much too them. This isn't one of those books. My concern isn't that I've given you too little information, but too MUCH! I hope I don't overwhelm you with it all. When I typed the book in MS Word, it was 69 pages long and has 37,000 words. I tried to remember back to my first few months living in van, and answer every question you may have. I think I have, but let me assure you that if anything isn't clear I want you to write me through the websites, the forum, and my blog listed above, and I will do everything in my power to make it clear to you.
Let me apologize for the inevitable writing and formatting errors in the book. I am not a professional writer, and I know next to nothing about html. What I am is a guy with a huge passion for vandwelling and a strong sense of empathy for anyone trapped in our society who wants to break out. I'm also a guy who, in the last 10 years, has made just about every possible mistake pertaining to living in a vehicle and would like to help you avoid them. By dogged persistence, and lots of study on the Internet, I have learned how to make my life as a vandweller into a wonderful life I want to share that with you.
How to Live in a Car Van or RVAnd Get Out of Debt Travel and Find True Freedom eBook Robert Wells
What I like most was Bob's reminding me of or bringing to light lifestyle choices (those made or yet to be made) which warrant serious consideration or reconsideration. His tips,tricks, product information was pertinent. I hope I never have to eat out of a dumpster.What was missing is how do vandwellers deal with physical or mental illness, or serious health conditions (example cancer)? Do you drive back to your family or to the government and say "here I am take care of me"? Or do you hand your keys & title over to another vandweller and walk off into the wilderness to feed the earth with your remains?
What I didn't like (minus 1 star) was his repetition of topics already presented. So much so I was wondering if my Kindle copy had a glitch in it where parts of the book were duplicated in my electronic copy.

How to Live in a Car Van or RVAnd Get Out of Debt Travel and Find True Freedom eBook Robert Wells Reviews
I have been living in a van by choice for about 4 years. I really wish I had found a book like this when I first decided to live this lifestyle. There was some information on the internet that was helpful but having it all in one place makes it so much easier. This isn't a dry, facts only, type of book. Bob makes it easy and fun to read. If you are currently living in an old car or a van or a million dollar motorhome or if you are just thinking about it this is a great book to help you live this life in the safest most enjoyable way possible within your budget.
Regardless of your state emotionally and materially, Bob Wells doesn't judge you. He simply suggests that living a life on the road is more natural than living in a fixed dwelling with a mortgage, a deed, a lease. It's more natural, he says, because it isn't fixed, it isn't safe. Your life is more raw. You are exposed. You are living closer to nature. Therefore, he says, you may find yourself being happier.
What a healthy perspective. Other authors have written this kind of book from the viewpoints of paranoia or the notion that there's something romantic about abandonment of places, people, and or even one's best self. Worst though, some authors have no alternative point of view, they're just inviting the reader to move from their secure house to a secure RV in a secure RV park. I'd rather hear the paranoid guy tell me about the best kinds of bullet-proof glass for my van.
But like I said, Wells is none of that. He fuses his realistic yet positive and hopeful philosophy with a lot of practicality. In that way he prepares you mentally and then he gets you on the road with excellent and specific advise on every major concern regarding living in a vehicle.
At the end of the book Bob doesn't leave you stranded. He steers you to forums where you can ask further questions, meet people, and drive further into the sub-culture of vandwelling, car living, and RVing. He invites you to write and visit him, wherever he may be camped.
I recommend this book to those interesed in mobile living, to those who are into simplicity or life editing, and also to anyone living or planning to live within some form of alternative housing. It's an easy, highly informative, and fascinating read.
I have been following Bob on you tube for quite awhile. This book gives practical advice on how to transition from the rat race to a life of meaning and purpose. His philosophy on how to live a fulfilling life without the traps of modern society really resonates. Get this book. I have been wanting to do this for awhile...just waiting for hubby to come around. Thank you Bob for all you do!
Mr. Wells really knows what he’s talking about because he has actually lived this lifestyle for a long time and he truly cares about sharing his experience with others who choose this lifestyle or are unwillingly forced into it. I found him on YouTube initially, and found his perspectives so intriguing that I purchased this book even though I’m not a vandweller. We are planning to be full time RV’ers soon living in a pop-up camper for now and nearly everything in this book applies to pretty much any nomadic lifestyle, so I highly recommend it! Thank you Mr. Wells for sharing your knowledge with us “newbies”. Hope to someday meet you and thank you in person.
After following Bob Wells on YouTube, first through Enigmatic Nomadic and now on Bob Wells channel, I finally decided to buy his book.
It is written in the chatty, fatherly manner that I so appreciate from his channel. It was nice to be able to hear his voice in my head as I read.
This is a quick and informative read and set up in such a manner as to allow skipping around to the topics one is most interested in.
What I love best is the great encouragement and confidence Bob generously dishes out without ever coming across as preachy or cultish; just a take it or leave it kind of guy.
By far, the most informative and most concisely written book I've found on van camping of any duration, but much of what he covers would also benefit RV-ers who want to cut costs, or become more cost-efficient.
Having read a number of somewhat disappointing books on van camping where fluff and preaching overshadows useful information, this author's writing style is straightforward, yet personalized; and compellingly easy to read, with a lot of really here-and-now valuable content. For instance, how to have 110 power--from just enough for small uses to a lot, and the varying ways to buy (or rig) same is presented understandably, even if you know nothing about it, which I don't. I actually have a basic understanding of choices that would be available to me and what it would cost, both in money and weight/space. He covers everything from showering and personal hygiene alternatives to internet/phone choices. All I can say is my book got heavily highlighted because there was just a ton of stuff I wanted to bookmark. Last but not least, in the few places when a topic's choices are too complex to reasonably include in depth, he lists the actual choices with enough explanation so that you can go straight to one that best fits your needs, and have a good idea what you're looking for, and what to watch for.
A really excellent "how to" book. Truly 5-star recommendable!
