Re: with "HayVan" from Indiana to Oregon

Hello,

while they Took care of HayVan (they did well and quick) we visited the mormon temple.






Then we started the 530 miles trip to Reno where we are right now. (Circus Circus)

Just a few Impressions here.








Ja well. I do not Put blame on the van. Something like the radiator leak might Happen. Just sad about the money wasted there. I d have preferred to put it otherwise in the van.

To answer the question. Not shure how Long the 4x4 conversion will take actually.
Yes. I will add rear bumper and larger tires and other rims. And the aluminess ladder.

Philipp

Re: with "HayVan" from Indiana to Oregon

Today just driving from Reno to Klamath Falls.

We wanted to visit a National Park (Lassen). But road was closed because of to much snow.

Here we now have loads of rain and stay in the Motel for the rest of the day.

Re: with "HayVan" from Indiana to Oregon

Strange breakfast you have here. Blueberry pancakes with sausages!? Really??

Last Day at Quadvan and Portland. I like the City!

Today we leave HayVan at John and Fly back to Germany. All worked quite well. Hope to have HayVan in Germany in some months.

I will keep you informed.

Philipp

Re: with "HayVan" from Indiana to Oregon

That's a lot of blueberry goo.........if you were in the southeast you could have tried some grits or biscuits & gravy.

Looks like you've had a fun adventure, and it's not over yet!
