It's tough to make a car conversion glamorous like bus and van conversions, so here with Becca's Subaru Forester conversion, practicality is king. Forgoing most cooking has enabled a focus on sleeping and storage. The roof pod helps but could be omitted for stealth. The sheer travel mileage shows it's all worked well.
Travelling full-time. I've been traveling all over the US (and a bit in Canada). I drove 40,000 miles between May and November, and coast to coast 3 times.
Indispensable in an SUV, non-stealth travel build.
Roof pod. SO WORTH IT. Great place to stash valuables out of sight, and keeps down the amount if clutter in your car, especially if you have a lot of gear like me (I have hiking, camping, climbing, and biking gear).
