Hi Everyone.  Everyday I think and research my future of living on the road.  I recently purchased a 1999 chevy 1500 conversion that I have thrown all my camping stuff in.  I am slowly working on getting some sort of solar power into it and making it work for me.  I go on as many local trips as possible, but really look forward to it being full time.
I live in the San Francisco Bay area and will be able to retire in 4 years, however, I would like to leave the hectic lifestyle here as soon as possible. Just working on the money thing.

Welcome to the CRVL forum !    

Everything you will need to get started is right here.

Going out on the weekends is a great way to "shake down"
and be ready for when the time comes.  You will want to develop
a list of things you will always want to have in your trove of gear.

Having these things will give you a sense of confidence and mastery
when in camp.  A year or two of this will have you ready to go on the
road full time when combined with what you will learn here about travel
strategies.
