Post New member saying "hey"

Hi everyone,
I have fallen in love with skoolies and I'm exploring the possibility of buying one and setting out on the road for a few months or longer. Years ago I read Blue Highways, a Journey Into America, and the book always stuck with me. I'm glad I stumbled upon this site and look forward to learning about them. currently I live in south Florida and would love to hear from local skoolies.
regards to all..

I'm up just a bit north of Orlando. Swing by some time, we love meeting new people.

Welcome !

What I suggest is writing down your requirements. It'll help the planning stage and others can chime-in.

How many people? How tall? Pets? trailer?

Full time? Part time? Mountains? Perma-park?

Experience driving big things? Skill-sets you have access to: family & frenemies ?

Have a spot to stash the Beast? Hoa?

Then there is that budget thing.
