The Rubber Tramp Rendezvous is a rally of like minded folk who have chosen to dwell in there vehicles either by choice, or circumstance. A group who realize the many benefits of living a mobile lifestyle, that getting rid of there traditional stick and brick homes is way more affordable. Take away your rent, or mortgage payments, property taxes, car payments, and all of your utility
bills......Just take a moment to imagine the savings. One can live very comfortably on very little, also allowing them to get out to travel.
You have succeeded in life when all you really want is only what you really need.

Yep those old Chinook's are neat good mpg too! The new ones are nice as well, but to pricey for me. Good Luck on your search for a smaller rig.
