Spaceballs Mod!

Can it feature the "Winnebago Man" as this epic tale's version of Jan Dodonna?

No, but the second seat belt requires a Mawg costume.

[Kusanagi]

That would be awesome.

Hmm in addition to Hilgara, you should do some kind of mod where you fly around in a identical van and have to collect resources.
Combat consists of shooting beams out of the headlights, when you fire the booster the back doors fly open (or a missile barrage),
you fight other vans and cars for supremacy, access to Wiki saturated zones, and the last parking spot at the space diner.

Boss fight is against Eagle 5 from Spaceballs. 

Damn now I have a huge temptation to make a van with large rocket engines, missile pods, solar panels, etc and put it into FreeSpace just for this <_>

Seems like Maeglamor might have had a similar idea.

As much as I like the idea of modifying and living in a van, I think I'd feel vulnerable sleeping in one, even whilst parked in a secure parking area.

When I was living in that RV, the bed was right underneath one of the two biggest windows in the thing.  You get used to it.  It's not as secure as say a house or an apartment with a dead bolt, but you get used to it.

[Kusanagi]

That's true. Plus, you're able to get up and go anywhere with it.

It will never be as secure as a house, but certain situations are better than others.

[Klaustrophobia]

well how secure is a house really?  about the only other thing you got going for you there is more space between you and the break-in.  which actually works to your advantage in a van if you sleep with a weapon nearby 

[Liberator]

Unless they tear open the back doors and knife you before you come fully awake.

[Cyker]

Plus, in the event of a Zombie/Velociraptor attack and subsequent emergency evacuation, you can get a head start as you don't have to pack your belongings up

Hmm, can you still buy those anti-car-jacking flamethrowers? I think it would make a great birthday present for Kurs  )

[Kusanagi]

I keep pepper spray in the van. I have had to use it before. That's about as dangerous as things get.

I was wondering what your girlfriend's thoughts are regarding sexual intercourse in the back of a house-van and how those impressions shape her view of the future she sees for the two of you together... in say... the next 5-10 years.

Hey, you said in the topic that I can ask anything.

[Liberator]

That's a good question actually.

She enjoys it, but we're both too preoccupied with getting our OWN futures off the ground then to really worry about tying them together, to be bluntly honest.

So how did you come by the knowledge to convert the van into a home and of how its systems function?

Followup to this one.  How many times have you worn out the rear shocks?

[Kusanagi]

Lots and lots of research online and by trial and error.

There's of information out there about systems but you have to piecemeal it together quite a bit. I made a few mistakes but have corrected them easily over the last year and a half. There are a few things I wish I did differently but if I ever convert a bus or another van, those lessons will be kept in mind.

[Dark RevenantX]

Oh my God, a bushouse.  Do it.

i couldnt resist keeping a shutgun in the van. i mean drive your van to the woods and you have an instant hunting cabin. of course you can also splatter any potential burglars whilst in city limits.
