Nah I have enough scars from it to remember it. And as fun as a lot of it was the first part was fairly hellish. I do not hate myself that much to make something like that up :b

Just trying to share from the school of hard knocks :)

Honestly your best bet is to get a smartphone from wal-marts tracfone selection. Then get a otter box for it. (note the otter box may cost more then the phone) If you want new. If you want used.... Craigslist hell sometimes people give them away. The only issue is finding a otter box for it if...

You know that is one thing I have always liked about this community. We patrol our own. Very few groups do this, most like law enforcement cover up for their own. When one of your own goes bad. You put them down. HARD. Stealing from wal-mart is one thing assaulting a child is a very...

And this is why I carry a few tabs. Worse case I will pop it in my mouth till I can unfold it. rather wipe my ass with my own spit then someone elses shit.

I check visit a few walmarts...I have yet to see them in any of them. ;/

Welcome :)

Ok so we have all done it. EVERYONE POOPS....They even wrote a book about it. This was one of the biggest things in my bag. Yes I took the freaking cardboard tube out and squashed it down. But it was still huge and a pain to carry around...Not to mention I had to keep it in a ziplock incase I...

Yeah I had this hooked up to my alternator in my truck(via dc converter) . Not solar friendly. But when I was covering 400 miles or so in a few days. This thing just sat next to my bed and made me ice....Since the truck did not have AC I LIVED for those cold drinks.

When I "retired" From the road I ended up shredding my pack... I had all my friends sign it with a High Purity 44 marker. Aka its not washing out. I cut it into bits and mounted it on my wall. I look at it and often wonder how my old friends are doing. If they are still alive or on the road...

I do not think this would be a good tip for living out of a van. But if you have a squat shack... The highway department throws away TONS of useable solar panels. Mainly because they get cracked and only put out half of the juice. No they do not put out a lot of juice but they will usually give...

Your odds of seeing a gun while train hopping are almost zero... If you happen to be camping on someone's property in texas...Ehhhh you might find yourself looking down the barrel of a 12 gauge. Do you have a smartphone? So many people do a rideshare on craigslist these days. Many of them do...

That is the older model. (one I have seen at the goodwill) The only real difference is the pocket in the sleeve and the new one has a liner. Also updated all the links so you can click on it and get more information.

A few people liked the thread about the ScotteVest. So I will list all the things I carried in it and why. Also keep in mind. I carried all of this stuff and managed to keep the big pocket pretty much empty. LockPicks- Carried in the upper right breast pocket. These things helped so much and...

Yeah I'd prefer the battery pack from walmart to that. Its rugged as hell and has two usb ports for sharing a charge. That being said...It was only 20 bucks on sale. Not sure if it is waterproof but it is definitely resistant.

Hypothetical that tablet pocket is probably responsible for about 10k worth of items lost from walmart. Everything from a bottle of wine to clothes

These things are great. You can see you friend across the world (Skype), Find a job or a gig for a few days with or even a place to sleep. You can check your email, look up your route, find a good camping spot or place to sleep with a birdseye view(google maps), Find free shit on LetGo or...

I get that. My bedroll was the most bulky thing I carried on me, but the few that there are are HUGE and bulky as hell. Not something I want to be weaving in and out of trees in. I mean there is THIS. But unless you wanna make a stick shelter with it over a trench you need two people to make the...

First off full disclaimer. My days of sleeping in the back of cars, in a tent or in old condemned house are far behind me. Fibromyalgia is a pain in my ass. That being said I hope someone can learn from my experiences. Yes this is a affiliate link. Like I said full disclosure This jacket has...

Not arguing your point. It is a good one. In the style that I recommended a lot of people forget that they have a knife in there hands. Also I am assuming(possibly incorrectly) that the other guy does not have a knife or a weapon that he is just talking big and bad.

I go to a place to sell insurance ( I am licensed in 20 states) While I am there I ask if they have any job openings for Vets. Two for one. Function stacking

Loner, I get wanderlust from time to time. I am a renaissance man. I do a lot of different from engines to jewelry making. I am a big believer in function stacking and giving back. That being said. I have a really dry sense of humor. I have found that a good or maybe bad sense of humor can get...

Moras are insanely good knives for the buck. I have taken them to blade smiths and they have no idea how they make them so cheap. If you want something a bit more rugged I would go with a Gerber Paraframe I Knife, Serrated Edge I would post a link but it would be taken down. There less then...

Agreed. Nothing helps you feel more human after a long few weeks like cleaning your self off. Even better when it is a hot shower. One of many reasons I carry a soap bar and a washcloth with me wherever I go.
