Who has a travel trailer?

You could park that bitch in any Wal-Mart parking lot for free, I see it all the time...start a blog, chronicle that shit, it could be cool...stranger things have been bought and made into movies...

I was considering this years ago and decided it was not doable because of lack of internet. If you actually look at Hughsnet you'll see how fucking terrible their shit is. You have terrible restrictions on max upload/download per day (like 500 MB download). Also the speeds are pure shit too.. all for a huge price. Even their best packages are pure shit.

If you rely on Wifi you're not really going to be going anywhere special.

I don't know too much about Sprint 3G, but can't imagine it's much better than Hughesnet.

I'm guessing you're the type that needs some good reliable internet is why I'm saying this.

Oh also, you can't just park your camper anywhere. You'll have to pay campgrounds or whatever and they are often much more money than you'd think. Comparing it to apartment rent - it might be the same.. it depends on if you can find good deals.

if you get something that works though keep us posted.

The majority of the time I'll be at friend's houses, so there will be good broadband available. As for the Sprint 3G, it has better speeds than what I used to get from Mediacom (which isn't really saying much, because Mediacom is so bad). I just ran a speed test and got 1.1 Mbps down and 0.78 Mbps up. I also have a backup AT&T 3G card in case I can't get a Sprint signal. I was only considering the Hughsnet dish in case I decide to go out into the middle of nowhere.

And yeah, I know that campgrounds can be expensive. I did the math and I'll actually be spending about twice what I spend now every month on living expenses. It's not going to be a money saving adventure at all.
 
im not trying to be rude, but as someone that has hauled tons of stuff in tons of vehicles, whats more important is what are you using to hitch this travel trail. up to?

Not going to work out very well unless your in a newer v8 truck with less then 50k miles... anything else and well.... you'll find out in about 8 months.
