BUG-OUT RV / gimmer style 2 Attachment(s) I am considering the purchase of a bug-out RV and would like to hear if any members have one and why.. More important, do any current owners have tips for a novice looking to buy a used unit?? I believe the survivors of the collapse of the american financial sytem will need to adapt to living off the grid in some way, shape, or manner to avoid being slaves of the new government system. Should, heaven forbid, we face nuclear fallout in the future, I want to relocate to Paraguay. A homestead is ideal, but the option of being able to locate outside the country is a must for me. Or even being able to move to remote public park land on short notice would be a major advantage. Here are a couple of auctions I am watching to get an idea of what I think would be acceptable bug out mobile homes. If anyone knows of a good solid RV for sale, similar to the ones listed below, feel free to PM me.. mucho gracious. 1992 Toyota Winnebago Warrior (large pic on bottom): http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...=STRK:MEWAX:IT Low Mileage 1989 Chevy Cobra: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...=STRK:MEWAX:IT

Re: BUG-OUT RV / gimmer style Toyota is under powered the other will work but look for a Diesel if you can find one. I have a 38 foot 5Th wheel stocked and ready to roll.

Re: BUG-OUT RV / gimmer style Roadgold has the better idea. A fifth wheel pulled by a diesel pickup truck 4x4 IS A MUST for your scenario. Don't forget the extra fuel. Stay away from the ANY RV that is built on any pickup or van chassis. They are NOT built to handle any real stress. They get really lowsy mpg and will break down at the drop of a hat. And FORGET about any of them to go off road. They will NOT do so. Get a fifth wheel. At least it can be disconnect and LEFT BEHIND if necessary in a bad situation. Or left hidden as a hideaway cabin deep in the woods. just sayin...

Re: BUG-OUT RV / gimmer style with a diesel you can make bio fuel if need be. and with the 5Th wheel and truck set-up you still have a vehicle to drive with out bring the whole house.

Re: BUG-OUT RV / gimmer style I'm thinking of getting a used motorhome from the Vegas or Phoenix area as PM goes up and more used toys come on the market at lower prices, so I will be interested in this thread. I'd like to set it up to be pretty close to just hop in and go if things get nasty around here. (obviously some things would be packed and ready to load in because of higher theft risk from the vehicle than my home.) Several friends own ranches I have permission to park on. I would want solar power and the ability to have satellite internet. But right now the time for buying is not ripe in my family budget, so I may not have it when I need it, alas. Anyway, add me to the curious.

Re: BUG-OUT RV / gimmer style As slv said, a truck with camper might be a better alternative. Being able to seperate the two gives you more options for mobility.

SLV, has the right thought. You want something that is 4x4, can get around traffic, through dirt/mud roads and go places most RV or large trailers can't. Otherwise you will be a sitting duck if you are running in a SHTF situation. Large RV would be alright, ONLY if prepositioned. Dave

Re: BUG-OUT RV / gimmer style If you're willing to tow-its gonna sound stupid- saw a small flatbed trailer with a camper on it yesterday. I thought it was odd, but now can see the beauty of the setup. Campers are dirt cheap, and a decent trailer can be had for a modest enough price. The camper can be offloaded as a standalone unit, with the utility of the trailer intact. The truck is free for mundane transport chores, I'm thinking fuel and water ferrying. Bear in mind that class A and C RV's are usually houses on wheels and are sometimes maddeningly complex maintenance hogs. I get customers all the time who don't have the knowledge required to dry camp-even in the formerly $500K units. If you're dead serious about survival centering around whatever rig you get, be prepared to buy several various electrical unit spares (batts, inverter/converter, genset) or be ready to go it without elex and use the freed up space accordingly.

Re: BUG-OUT RV / gimmer style Used school bus. Saw one today on side of road for 4k. it looked to be around 20-25ft (midsize bus) and had a diesel engine. Rugged, lots or room. Easy flat interior to customize. Been thinking about this for myself. Paint it camo, put camo screen on the windows to add privacy... then outfit inside with shower, toilet, wood stove, kitchenette and bunks. If I ever get tired of it, can sell easily to hunters.

TG, Yeah that yellow just screams at ya don't it? Instead of camo though, go with a standard 383 Carc substitute solid green. Rapco will sell it to you by the gallon. http://www.rapcoparts.com/manuals.html You could get four gallons of it shipped for like $160. Hey, use a spray gun or a roller and you could paint it in a day. You can still drape it with a three color camo netting that could be stored on the top of the bus out of the way until needed. This is an EXCELLENT idea for sure. And used school buses are a dime a dozen these days as school busing is slowly losing favor strictly because of the costs involved. TK, I've always loved the newer Mogs. Great trucks for sure. With the portal axles you can go almost anywhere.

Re: BUG-OUT RV / gimmer style Honestly, how far do you think most of these vehicles will get before being stuck in the traffic jams associated with disasters? This is a serious question not sarcasm. I suppose if you were on top of things and one of the first people to hit the road they would be pretty good. One point I'd like to make is the nicer, newer and more expensive looking a vehicle is the more likely it is to draw unwanted attention.

Agree If you do not get out early before things go south. ALL roads will choke up. Remember that you are not the only one that knows about that little used road to the country. Look at what happened in Houston and that area when hurricane Katrina came inland. All highways and back roads jammed up. Just a thought.

If you are bugging out, then you have waited too long. I was thinking of using one as a portable camp. I.e. obtain property or scope out emergency location if things start looking bad, move portable camp to best location. My idea of a small bus retrofit was: 1. cheap to obtain 2. built on commercial chassis 3. diesel 4. frame and body built in way that is VERY easy to modify, unlike a RV.. easily strong enough and enough undercarriage space to mount spare fuel tanks, generators, water, etc. 5. will not attract too much attention 6. can be easily sold to hunters in texas for deer lease camp 7. portable camp

Agree A small bus platform has so much potential it screams. Gut it and the sky is the limit to what you can do. Rock solid frame and your imagination/pocketbook is the only limit on what can be done with it. They are made to last for bunches of years and miles. :biggrin:

This would ALSO make an excellent vehicle as a 'commuter' type vehicle after SHTF. Ferfal specifically states that if you can deliver clients to and from work successfully and safely, you will have a place in a crumbling society. Add a few comfortable seats with great A/C, Wi-Fi, satellite TV, sat radio and sat phone and most high end clients will be extremely happy with your service. Don't forget upscale beverages and eats for going to work/coming home from work for your clients.

Re: BUG-OUT RV / gimmer style I just have to say, beware of the Toyota 3.0 V6 (used from approx '89-'95). It is a pile of crap and blows headgaskets like none other. It's also weak and gets bad gas mileage too :bear_w00t: My novice opinion would recommend a Full Size chevy 4x4 van with RV stuff inside. It will probably go anywhere you might want to go, and it will be far more stealthy than an RV. Or if you want to lift it and go nuts with the 4x4 you can.

Re: BUG-OUT RV / gimmer style I'd say school bus would be the way to go too, I myself would go for a shortened one. (LOL) because I don't need all the room what have you, but if you type in School Bus in Craigslist you're rarely going to see a pricetag over 8000 bucks. Most of them are in the 3000 ~ 5000 dollar range. The other thing I thought about was doing a panel truck conversion, like a Dodge Sprinter, they have efficient 4cyl diesel engines. But the Sprinter is very expensive. It'd say schoolbus all the way.

Re: BUG-OUT RV / gimmer style 2 Attachment(s) Back in May I was reading this post http://goldismoney.info/forums/showthread.php?t=379481 And was thinking hmm.. so started doing some homework and looking on Craigslist to see what was out there..

Re: BUG-OUT RV / gimmer style If you get a deuce and a half, make sure you hook up with your old buddy from motor t to keep it going. The school bus idea sounds best so far. I'd like to get one for traveling/camping purposes while home visiting. Who has experience with them? Mileage? Insurance and plate issues? reliability? and.. are they really that cheap????? How do you lock the door? Does it pull a small trailer? If so, you could have a motorcycle, dirt bike or 4-wheeler for small commuting purposes. Or a smart car.

Re: BUG-OUT RV / gimmer style Yes, I have an RV and I do recommend that you have one too, here are the facts: 1. Remember it is your second home, keep it stocked and ready to go. 2. I was in KATRINA, RITA, GUSTAVE & IKE and if you do not want to have 2000 bed mates you need you own bedroom, believe me, I can park in the forest while you are a guest of FEMA, think about it. 3. A long term backup house for all contingincies, KEEP IT STOCKED AND READY, did I mention not having 2000 bed mates in the cot next to you. 4. Have a dual fuel generator, Natural Gas and Gasoline. uscarb.com is the source for the pats for this endevour. 5. A hard sided travel trailer is the best, I have a fifth wheel with a trailer hitch, I am able to tow a double trailer behind the fifth wheel, Hooray for PMs and Gunsafes, along with extra preps. 6. Big diesel truck to pull this stuff, with extra fuel tanks 500 to 1000 mile range.

Re: BUG-OUT RV / gimmer style . The smokeybear deflation rig has been all over Arizona, down past Mazatlan and out to California in the last ten years. The 19' trailer is just big enough for two plus a Jack Russell to live indefinitely. The old '71 Blazer is built like a tank. http://rudydo.com/00rig01.jpg We are currently getting it ready to head south for who knows what.... forced vaccinations, confiscation, black swans or just downright disgust with Gringoland. In Mexico we found an empty RV park out on the end of a long dirt road on the beach where we stayed for a few months for ten bucks a night. While there, a young family rolled in riding in an old '60s era motorhome on their way to Costa Rica. You gotta believe they made it. In California we lived off the grid for a couple months, ten days at a time, on the beach north of Ventura. Empty grey water every night. Fill 5 gallon buckets of H20 from the faucet at the state park. Hookup the batteries with a 12 gauge wires to the Blazer alternator every couple of days. Eat less, shit less, curl her hair less. As far as we are concerned that rig is our only home, or as mizz smokey calls it, our "cottage on wheels" 0.
