I've been trying to track down cedar shingles to fix the wall of my house.
It's pretty fucked up that we have cedar mills around mission but local distributors don't really stock the product. if they do have the product, it's some fucked up prices like 800 bucks for a box.
My best bet maybe buying some east coast cedar shingle online to fix my west coast house lol.

Hmm...I read it as a friendly suggestion without any ill-intent.
If I could offer an alternative perspective, one of my classmates is currently living out of a van. He's gone on some interesting adventurous while being in school with us.

It would be hella fun to live in a van in your teens, 20's, maybe even 30's...
Shit, if you were young and were always out and about meeting women, playing shows as a DJ, or otherwise looking to be ultra-social, van life would probably get you laid a ton!
I like living somewhere that I can blast my music, work on my cars, and isn't too far from walking somewhere for a cold pop. People forget, it hits -30c outside of Vancouver, sometimes for a week or longer, try rocking that in the winter time in a fucking RV. I went to my neighbour's RV this winter and while it was -30c outside, it was "only" like -2 inside his RV. Wow so cozy!
Besides, another pro to living in a house, apartment, or shack: Nothing beats taking a nice 20 minute HOT shower when you're thinking about something and need to brainstorm. Ommmm... namaste. Nothing better than shower thoughts, try that in an RV's pathetic "shower", you barely get enough hot water to clean your ballsack and ass crack before it's cold.

I'm not suggesting anyone to live in a van or an RV full time. And I agree with Hondaracer; If you're living in one full time, I would personally categorize that as homeless.
Having said that, I was at the track last weekend and some guy there has an RV that's nicer than probably most of our houses, including Hehe's.

Those big RV’s like the diesel pusher/Barbie Bus type though are one of the worst investments you could possibly make lol. The depreciation on those things is worse than any regular vehicle you could possibly buy
My old boss ended up buying a massive one from a friend of his who purchased a brand new one like 3-4 years previously, the thing was like 700k new. Had multiple king sized beds like 4-5 TV’s, 2 washrooms, it was like the top of the line even in that segment. Boss ended up buying it off him for a “buddy deal” of like 250k but he can then the actual value was only about 350 from 700+ 4 years ago

Yea no one who can afford them isnt worried about the depreciation, but I couldn’t believe how far it fell off. The guy was also super anal about maintenance etc. only drove it here to Palm Springs once a year so it had very few KM as well but even a perfect example didn’t matter to the value

I think it depends on the situation. Without a doubt, they depreciate like crazy.
The guy at the track drives the RV mostly year round (8 months out of the year.) He drives it from Toronto down to Florida and does track days across the US, so he's using it regularly. Of the 4 months it's out, he parks it at an RV park. Having said that, this guy is baller, enough to make Hehe drool with envy, so definitely not a normal situation.
So you spend 800k on a stupid RV thingy and god knows how much on gas, to then park it at a TRAILER PARK with fucking hobos and crack whores!?!?! that or some freeway rest area filled with more hobos and crack whores
do you know how many nights of hotel you can buy for 800k!? go stay at the ritz!

I can see the attraction of a rooftop tent setup or whatever... maybe even one of those camper things you put on the back of a truck or one of those older smaller Toyota truck campers... I'll never understand the whole bus sized RV towing a car around thing though.
That said most RV campgrounds are really nice lol... throw a pineapple on your door and let the saggy old wrinkly orgies begin!
