Haha interesting thread !!!!!
I am a full time photographer & I only drive a camper van! I am my own cliché
haha..................... its a normal van that I converted, still ongoing, but its functionally all done, just a few cosmetic bits but its there, sofa, bed, kitchen, loo, shower, power, solar etc all done n ready and been away in it a few times and its also my 'daily driver' (even though I don't commute)
So that's my trade off really, I don't commute as I work from home editing etc saving fuel costs - obviously I drive it to weddings,shoots etc
But the home on the road part of it is invaluable to me, I don't think I will ever have a car again, its so convienient in every way, plenty room to put my gear in, if there is any ever issues getting places (rare I know but if a road was blocked or whatever), iv a comfortable place to be instead of a small car, also I often head to the mountains to edit my pictures in the van - so as a mobile office it takes away the teidous hours of editing if I have a lot to do, also mains/12v electric on the road is great for my business needs - not that I have ever left for a shoot with flat batteries! lol, but just incase, its all there.................iv done 2-3 shoots in a day and put flash batteries on charge enroute etc - now I have all the power stuff installed i get 'free' electric as well.
Yeah brilliant, i'd not change it for the world.
