We live in Oregon so we don't have to go very far to find places to dry camp or State parks (one we visited just last weekend was only 1/2 a tank (round trip) away!) or FS or BLM campgrounds.
We camp year around and 90% of the time on the weekends. The general rule we follow is that we have to spend more time where we go then getting there and back. There is A LOT of country to see/visit with in 300 miles of where we live.
If I can find the "right" 05-10' used SRW or DRW Supercab V10 I'll likely jump on that.
Thanks for the comments guys!
