The YTers I've watched aren't willing to pay for anything other than food and gas and that's how they end up in parking lots.
Shop for supplies, use the free WiFi, use their bathrooms and then roll out to the next town to do it all over again.
I've set up a YY channel and am in the prep stages. We had snow here 2x in the same week so that's slowed me down to a stop. But it hasn't kept me from shopping online, drawing out a sketch of my She Shed to use as base camp when I'm in the area, etc.
I anticipate using Hoss (2008 Jeep Patriot) to commute and sleep and that's it. Everything else during the say will be outside in some form or fashion. That includes roughing it a bit so not only will I be buying a Coleman cooktop, I'll also be getting a small shovel and a hatchet.
The YTers that are in it for the IG "fame" will use popup wipes 7 days a weeks for a bath but would never chop small amounts of wood to build a fire. @@
