Rollin Coal in my new House!

Hey guys! My name is Martin, I have been in the Army for 10 years and deployed 6 times. 2x to Iraq and 4x to Afghanistan. After dealing with shit for the last 10 years of my life, I need peace and tranquility in my life. I have decided to convert a van to be my true mobile home.

I bought a 2001 Ford E350 7.3 Powerstroke Turbo Diesel - My first diesel - with a after market TS Chip, 4" back exhaust and alarm system. I will be converting it into my house. I seriously cannot wait to start this new journey. It is something I have been needing for a long time.

Looks like a solid start! Of course, I'm partial to 2001 E350 7.3 PSDs.. I've had two consecutive 2001 E350 7.3 PSDs covering the last 10+ years.

I love it so far. I am located in Monterey just south of you. I am hoping to meet other people around this area who have E350s too!
