Welcome to the Lost Box

Dive into the adventure with me to learn about van life, expedition campers, full time off grid rving, and overlanding.  I want to share my knowledge of RV systems and show how I built and modified many previous offroad expedition vehicles.  I’ve owned a sportsmobile, earthroamer, vanagon, chinook, and now a 4×4 diy ambulance.  This is place to learn more about composting toilets, solar, batteries, super singles, and even mini split ac systems.  Thank you for visiting, I hope this site provides something valuable.
