The scenario I've kicked around is like this. Take a small RV like a Toyota Chinook or Dolphin (great on gas) and travel at my leisure for a couple months a year. Solar panels for powering most things and a small portable Honda generator for running the A/C and other higher power needs. There's a list that can be found on the web for free campgrounds. Plus, I believe Walmart allows one night stays in their parking lots also. One would just need to be able to able to dump the their sewage occasionally at a approved site. I do however like the idea of using something like "Anytime Fitness" as much as possible.
When I get tired of traveling and instead of driving halfway
back across the country. I would find a storage lot to park the RV. Then take a bus or fly home. That way I could pick up where I left off when I want to resume my travels.
Stealth camping in a car or van is fine for short periods of time. However, having amenities like a kitchen, bath, full bed, plus ample storage and room to move around in makes all the difference in the world when on a extended trip.
