    Well I can tell you the reality, which I assume is similar to mine living somewhere new, in an apartment. You can totally fix it, but it'll cost you $$$$ since you pay someone else to do the work.

    My van has been at the shop since the 15th racking up a bill of $6k to get it in tip top shape. And done of the work is outside of what I can do. All fluids, brakes, belts, idlers, and fixing a broken gas tank strap. All easy stuff but no place to do it forced my hand.

    How were you able to reach the inside of the frame? Is there a special wand that gets up in there? Closest I’ve found is a garden hose attachment that’s only good for rinsing the dirt out.

    How cheap is cheap? I bought one for $800 and one for $900. Although technically I guess I bought the one for 900 really for $400 cuz I sold the other one. But I've been noticing in the used market they're usually like a third of what they cost new and a lot of people hardly use them

    Cheap for me is <$400. I've kept going back to that one I posted for the past couple days..
    Looks very well used though

    upload_2025-1-26_13-52-24.png

    Would be more open to spending more if I didn't have so much left to figure out with where the hell its going to go. Super cheap deal would force my hand to get that ball moving lol

    4 run, 2 don't
    You should've bought Tyler's. His was practically new and huge.
