Lucky number

Ever since I got the Rolling Steel Tent I've had the idea of adding bogus fleet numbers. I finally did it. (It has been a low priority, after all.) I don't know if it will actually help my van pass as a no-threat work truck, but it satisfies my design sense.

Why 013? Because it's my thirteenth vehicle. And because I started my nomadic life in 2013. Why the zero? To be more cryptic.

    So you were just starting out when my daughter and I met you? She was the one in the semi cab that visited Bob's camp. She decided then if she got a van she wanted hers set up just like yours. Very impressive for a newbie to have that impact.
