Planning for van life
So, in the next 5 years I’m going to start living the nomad life. I will plan to go south for the winter and far north for the summer, but not all at once. I want to go a little at a time, staying a bit at different places, and wandering around each location. It will be me, my van, and a klr650 on the back. Drive, stay a week or 2 , cruise around on the bike, then head down the road. While looking at van options, I started seeing etransits, esprinters, and bright drops as potential options. Etransits are cheaper but don’t have much range. Esprinters have better range but are more expensive. Bright drops have the best range, but are discontinued. Level 1 or 2 charging might work, as I’m going to be hanging around for a bit. The question I have is, do bright drops have the silverado battery, motor, etc? Will silverado parts work in a bright drop, or are the drivetrain parts going to dry up and go away? If so, I will just look more at ford and Mercedes. I’m not looking for specific buying advice, just asking about the future of bright drops. If they can still be serviced, then they are still an option. If not, then I’ll keep looking.
