He doesn't get banned, he deletes all his posts and storms out. 

I think a weird quirk of the GRM forums is if you delete your account, all your posts go away also?  Same effect as a ban.

No, he must have gone through the (considerable) effort of manually deleting every single post one-at-a-time to remove all of his posts. We haven't banned him (or talked to him).

....and that's why I can't quit this place.....I'll spend the rest of my life deleting 10,000 posts.

I wonder why he doesn't just start a blog with comments disabled.

Likely some underlying undiagnosed mental illness/unhealthy coping/social tendency (not ment to be offensive). Or just pure trolling.

I don't understand why in the multiple years this has been going on that a spring hasn't been removed and the suspension cycled with a tape measure handy.

So many issues would be avoided.

 

Also, what's up with blaming companies for parts not meant to fit this vehicle that don't, in fact, fit?  

The mental gymnastics required to blame literally every company and technician that has worked on this vehicle or supplied parts for it and not think that it might be them is astounding.

He's on a couple other forums that I visit.

He's....consistent.

I'm not sure where he got his information about RV registration and insurance costs. 

For one, registration fees vary wildly by state.  Here in PA, it would depend some on how the original Transit Connect was titled.  As a passenger car or a light truck?  If the latter, then the fee for it being an RV is only $6 more per year.  If from a car to an RV, then about $40 more.  

I've always read RV insurance is usually a lot cheaper than typical car insurance as they don't expect you to drive the vehicle very much each year. 

I vaguely remember the first time he posted about this project... forgot he had deleted it.  Seems an odd fellow... 

I agree - either a website blog or YouTube videos with the comments disabled.  I know of one YouTube RV creator who does that (and viewer blog posts are moderated/reviewed before going public).  I'm sure it hurts the channel numbers, but he makes videos for fun and not income so I don't think he cares.
