[quote=Doooh] . . . Here’s the thing, you don’t have to blow loads to get away. We do everything dirt cheap. I don’t think most folks realize how cheaply travel can be had.
We travel in a truck and camper, we sleep in Walmart parking lots, and on forest land along the way. Truck stops work but they’re a little loud. We actually save $ on the road vs at work running the rat race if we care to. I’m not eating lunch out at work when were on vacation, though I’m very frugal that way too . . . [/quote]
Doooh, I DO realize how cheaply one can travel because I do it . . . and also drive all night if I have a second driver. I HATE paying for a rental car at my destination. And even if my host rented it for me on occasion, I had troubles learning how to turn on fog lights, open the gas tank and keep it from talking to me, etc. I like driving something I’m familiar with when I’m on vacation. I don’t want to have to “relearn” a strange vehicle when I’m supposed to be relaxing.
If you want to know which truck stops in the State of UT have coin-operated showers, just PM me. That and a little Visine and a giant Chevron coffee will get you back on the road :=]
