    ....3,2,1

    That was one hell of an Arctic Blast! Hawaii? hmmm.... I am only as far as NY at the moment. Spending Super Bowl Sunday with family. If you know anyone that can part the pacific and give me and my little car safe passage, I am in!

    ....3,2,1

    Three days until I depart New England. One week from today I will be on my way to Tulsa from Indianapolis. The day after that will be night one in my car either in Texas or New Mexico. I have been so busy this past month. Consolidating fifty plus years of tangible memories has been very...

    My Forester and I....

    Couldn't help but notice this morning that parked outside my little shanty are three pristine Wranglers, a Landrover, and my subaru... Anyway, gotta a question about tire size. Currently the tire size on my car is 225/55/17. From what I read, if I so choose, I can go up in tire size, but it is...

    My Forester and I....

    Well just a little over a month before departure from the northeast to the southwest. I am about 90% ready. I have my solar setup ready, water and food storage, first aid for both the car and me, and even got a cassette toilet (I think I have put my time in using every other form off grid...

    Water Storage for the suv/car nomad

    roof rack can hold 75 pounds. I was only planning to store two in that, and only when I got to my campsite. The other 5 gallons containers I was hoping that I could leave on the ground in the shady side of my car. The 2.5 gal was going to be in my car. I also have my katadyn backpacking filter...

    Water Storage for the suv/car nomad

    forgive me if there is a thread already for this. From my understanding, water should be stored in a cool shaded place. As of now I own two collapsable 5 gal containers and a 2.5 gal hard plastic with spout. My plan is to store 10 gallons in the roof box on top of my forester, but I imagine...

    The count down has begun

    :) Hello all, I am about to start a new chapter in my life..... After living in Boston for the past thirty years (older than that though), opportunity, for lack of a better word for now, has presented itself to me. In approximately 60 days, I will be leaving Massachusetts in my car (Subaru...
