I was going to post a long detailed response.... But I have no time... You see I need some hot water... Gotta go get some sticks and start a fire. Anyone interested in a old unused water heater?:B I also build fires when I am cold, or need to cook. Anyone interested in some old unused propane tanks? (they need recertified) Also have a heater and a stove looking for a new home. With all this money I am saving, this RV lifestyle isn't costing nearly as much as I thought it would. I could have moved up from tent camping years sooner.
This is working out so well, that I want to apply these practices to my stick and bricks home. The savings here can be even greater. As I strip out all of the appliances I am not going to need anymore, my homes valuation should go down saving me tons on property taxes. Finding wood to burn in the city will be a challange. I could probably rob some that isn't really necessary from the house. As time goes on, my taxes will drop even more as my house gets smaller. I am glad I kept that old tent. When I get thru burning the house I can live in it. The money saved will be HUGE!!:B
