For my Jeep, I made a full set of window screens (4 windows and the moon roof) just using Home Depot nylon screen. For the magnets, I used 1/2 in. Neodymium Rare-Earth magnet discs (also at HD) They're small and super strong. So strong that I have driven at highway speeds with the screens...

Just want to put out a quick 'thank you' for this topic. I had been considering a screen shelter of some sort but couldn't quite pull the trigger on one for fear of buying a piece of junk. Based on this conversation, I went ahead and bought a Clam, which I had never heard of ( or at least...

I don't have as much experience as most others responding to your question. I went full-time just over four months ago. But I have set up a website to document my approach, my attempts and my failures in crafting a life on the road. I live out of a 2007 Jeep Grand Cherokee hauling a tiny utility...

I envy you that you're at least giving thought to your options. All I can say is that, 40-ish years ago I had similar debates with myself several times and ended up sticking with the "program" (frater-secessus' "wedding-kids-mortgage-divorce-childsupport-legal-industrial complex.")

I've learned quite a lot from two particular YouTube channels. Tony & Chelsea Northrup Besides lots of technique instruction from beginner on up, they do very in-depth product reviews as well. Their honest review of the Pentax K1-ii was useful in my selection of that camera and three years on...

I'd like to weigh in with my experience from my first four months of full-time traveling. My system on the road is just a slight adjustment from several years living off the grid in a small cottage. Perhaps the most important distinction between my choice of sleeping arrangements and nearly...

Left Massachusetts on September 9th and spent about 5 days getting to New Mexico where I moved around for several weeks (two weeks at a time) and now I'm at the Imperial Dam LTVA not far from Yuma, AZ. It's been quite an education as I figure out which of my theoretical plans would work and...
