Sell The Van Or Nah?

#vanlife

About us:
My name is Bionca and I have a 10 yr old son named Carter. I’m a cultured high energy globetrotting life coach, public speaker and soon to be an author. Carter is a spiritual goofy homeschooled kid, gamer, and humanitarian. Together we want to inspire others to be bold enough to chase their dreams despite any challenges along the way.

Our journey began when we decided to get rid of our fancy things, home school and travel the world until further notice. Then in October 2017, we decided to buy a van that would enable us to work, home school, explore the world and give back in the U.S! This 1989 Ford Econoline is a symbol of freedom and service to various communities.

Our values (L.E.G)
Learn
Engage
Give back

Some examples of what Carter and I love to do throughout our travels:

-Life coaching and delivering empowering speeches which include speaking on the issues of bullying in schools.
-Learn and explore various regions of the world while engaging with locals
-Cook delicious foods
-Host play date meetups for traveling families with kids
-Feed the homeless
-Rescue animals
-Clean up beaches

Right now we wish to relaunch an anti-bullying nonprofit foundation called the Bully Barricade Foundation. It is going to take a lot of work and we need your help!

We hope to meet many of you during our travels!
With love,

-Bionca and Carter

I love goal brainstorming videos 💕 You all just got a nice trailer (congrats!), I would've recommended a tour bus but now I suggest trading the RV for a pickup that uses less gas. The bed of the truck can be used for storage, an outdoor office area, or even a place to plant a garden 🌱

sell the VAN!! the universe has something bigger and better in store for you..
you don’t want the maintenance to become a burden, because it’ll be one ☝🏽 thing after another ; it’s an OLDER VAN the maintenance will COST MORE THAN WHAT IT’S WORTH!!

Saw you guys at Sprouts today! That was so cool getting to meet you guys! Hope you make it to the balloon fiesta while yall are here! It's so beautiful! Also just to let you know if you need a place to board your puppy while out and about you can at my house! I work for the Humane Animal Shelter in Albuquerque and I am on Rover... as long as he gets along with cats he is welcome here! Just let me know🐕🐾🌵😘 keep up the videos! Love the positive vibes! That was so cool getting to meet you guys! 💗💖💗

Sell!!! Set a budget, give yourself a month to deal with all the hassles of searching for a new home. Then but a new home that absolutely has none of the problems you're trying to escape! Been there done that!🦋

get a upgraded CLASS B..or a SUPER B like a LEISURE UNITY OR A WONDER

[Thedirtylittletruth]

Me and my husband are considering the same.. and we have two little ones and a dog.. literally at the same crossroads lol

[msnangiej]

No more money in that van. Tell her bye bye.

[MonicaLeader]

Travel trailer or cargo built trailer is a great way to go. Ausia from pandamonium got a bigger rig too.

[JMichellesSpot]

into the skoolies community. And try Craig List or auctions. Love you and Carter💕❤💕

[maddygutierrez]

Have you considered a used short class c motorhome with no slideouts? Look for a 1914 or 1915. Don't tow anything. It IS a hassle and not so safe and parking is a challenge indeed. God bless your travels.

Beautiful energy 😊 good luck in whatever you decide to do xxx
Have been subbed to your channel for a while but this is 1st video I've got round to seeing! Have a fab day 💞💞💞

Rv resorts everywhere and half ton SUV works my Montero sport is 500K tow capacity and very dependable

I think maybe just save over the winter and buy a bigger rig, if one comes up for the right price then just buy it if you can instead of waiting. He's a growing boy and needs space, not to mention you both could probably use a bit more privacy, everyone's entitled to that! I hope it all works out 😘

[charmndenise]

Be still... pray and be patient. Save your money and your energy. Celebrate Carter's birthday.Get through the holidays. By then you should have your answer or come to a resolve. Be safe loves❣️

Well, I like my class B van cuz it's stealth, I can park it anywhere, no towing is required, and with solar I have no other expenses! (except occasional dumping) I'm in the San Francisco Bay area, so neither winter nor summer is a big expenditure. My furnace runs on propane, so if I DO need heat, it is pretty inexpensive. I have two beds with plenty of length. Just sounds like you need another computer! ☺

[inbedduringcovid]

Can always put the van for sell to see how much you can get but if you change your mind just not sell. But I think you should test out trailers to see how it feels. I think you would be surprised about that. Also relax and pray and fast a day about it wouldnt hurt. You both are bigger than this moment in time. Peace and blessings

[imshooked]

Buy a cargo van and a used 25-29 ft trailer on Craigslist. My boyfriend and I are preparing to do that and it will only cost a little over 3000 dollars to purchase used

[aaa-pp]

Don't buy brand new. Once you drive it off the lot it's not new anymore. U can get a used box trucks from Uhaul, etc. Beautiful build outs on utube. Good luck!

[loucharles]

I say stay with a Van and your structures of payment which is affording you saving Money .
I've owned a trailer and your insurance btw is super cheap I'd like to know what company you have because I like the policy cost .
I say don't get into debt you will regret that but keep of van dwelling it's great...

Look at the r value rating of the walls roof and floor of anything you consider. That rating gives you an idea of the amount of hot and cold protection the builder has designed into the rig. Best of luck
