-====== "Paralysis by Analysis" ======
-Planning can pay off, but it is easy for many of us to get overwhelmed by details and perfectionism.
-What kind of camper? \\
-wd or 4wd? \\
-How much solar and battery? \\
-Which cargo van?
-Here are some ideas to help break the cycle of endless research.
-===== start with what you have =====
-Have a minivan?  A pickup? An Suv? A car?  Start with that.  Do the camping/living you like in that vehicle you already own.  This will get you practical experience with the vehicle (and your own preferences) as soon as possible.
-===== minimalist builds =====
-It doesn't take much:
-  * Take out the back seats and put a cot back there.  Or pad and sleeping bag.
-  * flashlight
-  * 99c jugs of drinking water from the grocery store
-  * some food that doesn't require refrigeration
-  * a spade and some toilet paper for a cathole toilet
-  * maybe a book
-===== camp nearby =====
-Your early test runs will be easiest to do near your home base.  Maybe in your driveway.  That way if there is a problem or forgotten item (toilet paper!) you can run back in and get it.
