****, $500 apiece got me and my brother 8000 miles travelling for a
month in my jeep, including gas. OK, it was 1976, and we slept in a
tent, 3-4 days between baths.

When I had my motorhome, I loved to boondock. Just pull over where there
was a field, a side road, whatever. I figured if a guy would just go on a
shoestring, and camp here and there, they could do a very long trip on not a
lot of money. And far less if they slept in a tent or a pickup cover. I
was all set to do the AlCan, but had heart surgery instead.
