I lived in my Ford Econoline cargo van for almost a year a long time ago. they work great and any mechanic can fix it for cheap and usually has the parts.
I bought another cargo van and still keep it as a third car.
When biking and hiking, the real van dudes usually have a ford or gm or dodge van. the weekend #vanlife people have the $$ sprinters and VW westfalia because they are cool.
my buddies tease me about my 'chester the molester' van. FREE CANDY!

Or Chevy Astro vans.

My mom just retired at 56, bought herself a Ford F-150 and a 27’ trailer. Living in that now full time.

Not sure I could do it personally for long term but to each their own.
