Hello everyone! My name is Curt and just wanted to introduce myself. I live in Hawaii (Big Island) right now. I am SOOO interested and envious (to tell the truth) with this lifestyle. :) To be able to travel and live on a cheap budget! Looking at possibly moving to the mainland (thinking Arizona?) in the near future. And of coarse planning and looking for an RV! Watched many vids on YouTube of all the tips and tutorials. Looking forward to learning and hopefully experiencing the lifestyle SOON! :D :thumbsup: ALOHA!
 
Welcome Curt to the CRVL forums! To help you learn the ins and outs of these forums, this "Tips, Tricks and Rules" post lists some helpful information to get you started.

Most of our rules boil down to two simple over-riding principles: 1) What you post should provide good information (like your introductory post), and 2) Any response to someone else's post should make them feel glad they are part of this forum community.

We look forward to hearing more from you.
 
E como mai! Are you on the Hilo or Kona side? I'm from Oahu.

Aloha
 
Aloha oe, Curt. E como mai! I left the lovely Garden Island Kauai to do the nomad thing. Best wishes to you.

I LOL'd at the "be able to travel and live on a cheap budget" because... well, because Hawaii! Land of every single thing you need being expensive for what it is and that's the cost of paradise.

Pretty far North! I have ohana in Pahoa and Mountain View. Things are pretty expensive for sure S&B wise in the islands (unless you're doing the unpermitted thing in Fern Forest or Hawaiian Beaches... Big Island not as bad as Oahu real estate wise...

Howzit Ravella and X! I was born and raised here in the islands...and NEVER been to Kauai! :blush: Yeah....cost of LIVING here is outrageous. :mad: Now on SSDI....even worst! Trying to get my stuff in order to move to Arizona....hopefully more sooner than later. :huh: Not sure if I want to ship my dually and buy a truck camper or sell and buy a maybe a used class B? Anyway, glad to be here! And glad to meet and talk to you all! Aloha!

Nah....planning to move to Arizona in the near future. Trying to get things straight here first before I leave. :thumbsup: Wow! No "shaka" emoji's! LOL! Aloha!
 
"\___/" there. I made us a shaka. You see it, ya? Try try.

If it were me and I had a good truck, I'd ship it. All types of used RVs have inflated prices because of ***** created demand. All used vehicles are going up now.

With a truck, you have choices of what type of moving hale you get -- truck camper, travel trailer, convert a utility trailer or da kine.

"\__/" :thumbsup: :D SWEEEET! Good job! 

Point taken. Plus....my truck is paid off, it's a diesel w/ a little over 100,000 miles and I wouldn't be paying $4+ a gallon! Mahalo for the input [font=Tahoma, Verdana, Arial, sans-serif]Ravella [size=small][font=Tahoma, Verdana, Arial, sans-serif]and X! "\__/"[/font][/font][/size]
