I don't have much long-term low cost trip experience but, I have gone on many shorter trips for really cheap. So I will throw out some of my experiences.

1) Megabus. If you live in a city that has megabus. You can snag $1 bus rides if You are flexable with your schedule. Took a trip to Cleveland for $2 last year and I just got tickets to Philadelphia for $2.

2) Car Camping. I have slept in my car a few nights. A mini van without the rear seats can make for a good bed.

3) Hostels. they are available in cities and usually around $20-$50 a night. I haven't had a bad experience with them ad it can be fun to chat with other travelers.

Well that's just a few ideas.
