That’s if you buy one new, which is only gentrified relabelling of RVs. I just converted a bus myself for 25k, which is what most people who actually live in them full time do. Anyone buying one is likely using it as a “second home” aka RV.
Absolutely. In 2020 (early days of the lockdown) I picked up a “new old stock” 2019 4x4 Sprinter Passenger van for $46k. I spent $5k Minimally converting it, and it has been my travel vehicle ever since (my wife and I do not fly).
The point of my response was that assuming that someone choosing to live in a van is because they can’t afford a house (as the previous comment implied) is incorrect. There are a tone of those Revel vans out there. Some people are choosing to live the van life because they want to, not because they have to.
The most popular of these vans costs as much as a house.

You can probably get an old delivery van, fix it up, tune it, and modify it to be a GREAT rolling residence for like a fifth of that.
