im tellin you that places are springing up all over buying the shit an makin bio fuel outta it.. also.. ya do know ya have to pay fuel taxes on it in most states free or not?? people are gettin popped all over the country for not payin tax on it..
hmm... ill have o take the tax into concideration. i have a year before im on the road so im still learning the legal stuff. i mean the bus isnt free anyway, i still gotta pay insurance. its not about money though, i have money and will continue to make money. its about a clean fule.
wow wonka that rocks. I have a 85 vw vanagon westfalia that I plan on living in once I'm 18, (next summer, then as a senior in high school), and I have a friend that wants to live in it with me. there are always walmart parking lots to park in.
quite frankly i think its bullshit to be taxed for it, however there doin it.. just 2 examples. http://news.com.com/8301-10784_3-9729079-7.html http://www.treehugger.com/files/2007/03/illinois_man_fi.php
omg... haha that is sick. besides the fact that you have "Jail" matresses for the beds haha. I'd take all the bumps out, besides 2 or 3. Do some fresh white carpet. Cover up some of that piping, some new leather couch and loveseat, and some subs for some throwed ass partys. haha... go buy you some land down. grow you a huge mary far, sell, and live out of that thing. You could make a killing. How much did you pay?
a little touch ups and you could make some serious profit off that thing that would be pretty tough to hotbox that monster
Sweet jesus! Mmm.. now I want a bus. But that would require me getting off my ass and learning to drive. Psh. Or I could just put it in the yard and live in it. I'm not sure if you've already answered this, if so, ignore it, but do you plan on painting it? If so, how?
its to bad it has such a nice red paint job.... i really want to paint it light blue with a huge half sun on each side. like a sun rising from the bottom of the bus.
For those who don't believe the fact that you don't have to convert fry oil into biodeisel.. we have drums for people that pick up our used oil.. i asked them what they had to do to convert it.. they said they used it for their cars, trucks, tractors, heat at home.. and they said nothing has to be converted..
I still haven't worked out the kinks. but I'd get a PO box again for mail (I used to have one to have drugs shipped to, my parents found out and closed it). actually a friend and I were thinking about getting an apartment. so I would move out mid june, my friend and I would live in the van for a few weeks, head down to the national rainbow family gathering (my parents have never let me go before), and then come back and get an apartment.
my van gets 20 mpg, which is better than most of my friend's vehicles. I got it to have a place where I could stay, but wanted better gas milage than a mobile home. I love my van. My friends and I ate lunch in it sometimes during the school year, cookking pancakes in the parking lot. we hang out in it around town sometimes, listening to music, burning incense, maybe playing frisbee.
^^^ I put $20 in my gas tank 2 weeks ago and i still have over a 1/4 of a tank.. no bus is gonna get that
