Working from home while on the road?

I’ve been working remotely while traveling, and it’s been amazing so far. Sharing my setup to see if anyone else does the same!

Wait, you’re telling me I’ve had a 4Runner all this time, and I didn’t think to do this? Definitely missed out.

Same here! I’m in Colorado too, so I feel like I’ve been slacking. Might look into getting Starlink now.

@Aman
I use the Starlink Mini, and it’s been great even while moving. The roaming plan is $50 a month for 50GB.

That’s awesome! Have you had any issues with your Dometic fridge not starting up properly?

I haven’t used it much yet, just for storing dry food. My power station runs the Starlink and my laptop for a few days, but I can’t spare the power for the fridge right now. Once I swap in a bigger battery, I’ll be set.

@Fin
Doesn’t Starlink drain your power? Or are you recharging the station every day?

The Mini doesn’t use a ton of power, but I’m bad about unplugging it overnight. I’ve got solar panels, but my battery doesn’t charge when it’s below freezing, so it’s tricky in the mornings.

Haha, I recognize that spot! Utah is the best.

With such a tight space, wouldn’t it make more sense to just use the laptop trackpad?

I’m not gaming here; I’m doing Excel work.

Anyone who uses a trackpad for Excel is a monster.

Where exactly is that Lake Powell view? I don’t think I’ve seen it from that high up.

Not sure of the exact spot, but I’ve seen it on a lot of van life channels.

This is exactly what the back window was made for.

Living the dream right there.

Man, I need to find a remote job. You’re living the life.

Stuff like this is why they’re making people come back to the office.

Where’s your window tint?

Looks like the back window is down. The rear sides are tinted, just not super dark.
