Hello, thinking about coming for my first rtr. It would be fun to meet everyone. That said, wondering about the kinds of jobs offered at the big tent. Do they require an RV? I live outta my truck so need something that would work with that

Well, through some very questionable decisions made by express employment, the work environment at digikey makes this less of an ideal situation that before. They basically forced an entire shift to not only change shift, but to also accept a $3/hr paycut. $18/hr is still something, but probably...

Currently overnighting in a rest area outside Valdosta. For whatever reason, the gnats and biting flies here are outta control.

This thread is for nomads NOT dwelling in an rv: I recently applied to the sugar beet harvest starting in Oct and will paste below what I was told as someone without an rv: "If you DO NOT have an RV, we do have limited housing available at a minimal cost to you. We will require a background...

Well, today is my first day on the trail. I actually stayed an extra day at the hotel partly because I was sore from the bus ride to Nebraska, but partly because I was nervous to begin. I really haven't done anything quite like this since my time in the military 13 years ago. It's really...

Hi all, I just finished what I'm doing here in FL, and am setting off in a few days for Nebraska. I will be walking the cowboy trail. I've been wrestling with an impending sense of mortality, and done with putting off my aspirations for tomorrow. Always tomorrow. But I mean it this time. For...

I'm one of the people that had booked their flight through southwest. And that situation has gone entirely fubar. Can't reach anyone on the phone, delays, cancelation and hours long lines. I'm stuck in Midland, Tx. Anyone else stranded?

go back in time and tell your younger self something, what would it be?

Just wondering what people think. Do you find films like Nomadland to be exploitive of you and your lifestyle? What about the people that glamourize it on Instagram with their brand new sprinters paid for by dad? It does strike me as mildly exploitive. There are some in our community that are...

For those with a lot of tools, how are you managing them during your travels and what is your setup like? I'm wondering because it seems like a decent tool selection precludes something like a van, because there just wouldn't be enough space and weight capacity to make a home out of the same...

With the van deal having fallen through, I'll start preparing the truck this week.

I got a used 4.3l with 88k miles on it. It was fleet maintained, so I need to pull the shelves and stuff out. But I'm ready to start building-out the interior.

I'm a little torn on making this thread, but I feel its worth pointing out as I see "gypsy" in quite a few people's usernames. The term gypsy is an ethnic slur for the Romani people. A few links proving/verifying what I'm saying: https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Gypsy...

Are you guys traveling with your tools, and if so, are you finding enough work to justify the increased gas expenditure due to the increased payload weight? Also, what kind of rig are you using?

As used vehicles prices have climbed, anyone else starting to look more and more at minivans?

I need some advice on this route. I will be leaving on december first and need to arrive NLT december 7th. I'm more worried about this route in winter. Is this a safe drive? I added the picture in as an attachment in case the link didn't work.

A 42 year-old woman passed from the corona virus. All deaths are tragic, but her's is sticking in my mind because she's only 8 years older than myself. And it makes me wonder what she had planned. Her goals. Her dreams. It sounded like her death came pretty fast. I know I have mine, and equal...

Is there a CRVL discord?
