The price of rent ($3,000/mo) and homes ($1,000,000) are crazy where we left. My wife and I currently living in a small car for about a month now. We are comfortable and have all we need. Small battery (jacket/bluetti/ecoflow) with solar panels and an inverter to charge while driving, small 12v fridge, some clothes, food, 14 gallons water. I leaned a ton from YouTube “CheapRVliving”. Right now we are sacrificing, but soon we will own cheap land and will build our own small house on it. I think it’s the only way we can survive this harsh world. Everything is just so expensive.

Thanks for sharing you and your wifes story. Ive been watching Bob for many years he's a huge inspiration and source of hope for many of us in these harsh times. Good luck on your journey I wish you guys the best with finding cheap land or whatever other choice you may take.

You ever watch Steve Wallis' stealth camping videos?

[–] Retro_unlimited@lemmy.world 1 points 5 days ago

I setup the car as a stealth camper, but because we are 2 people and a cat, we have to put things in the front seat when camping and it’s not as stealth.

Passenger floor is the cat litter box, passenger seat is the food bins and on top is the cat food and water, and his carrier (we remove the door so he can go in as he wants). The drivers floor is the extra cat food and cat litter, and drivers seat is a 7 gallon water jug.

At least where we are there’s tons of free camping. I have been using freecampsites.net for most of the camping spots.
