anything MOVING will draw attention WTSHTF, thats why if I'm moving about it will be around dawn and dusk not during the main day light hours.
Camper's and RV's.

around the US the road passaging won't last long - could even be cut pre-SHTF to border off the crap people that are already beating a drum ....
I can see and would wholeheartedly endorse the interstate exit towns blocking off any entrance - preserve their local resources and make sure they don't get stuck with the displaced gutload of people ...
on the lesser roads & paths I can see bandit gangs demanding tolls/tributes or just killing & robbing - can see this happening shortly after WROL is in play and there's no judgement coming anytime soon ....

Same with the city sheep here. The ghetto animals will loot and burn, then shoot each other. Most rural people will do fine.
when the UK DoomsDay Preppers show was new - plenty of the UK prepared had a small cargo trailer they had ready packed - didn't see much in the way of RVs - they set up a tent camp at their BOL ....
the Suidlanders of South Africa alllll seem to have a well designed cargo trailer specifically modified for bugging out - some probably have an RV but their encampments are portable communities with group kitchens & facilities ....
there is plenty of interest in caravans or trailers as you would call them but most of these people are not preppers just tourists.
there are some who favour tow behind car trailers but space is limited and unless they have a big diesel guzzling 4 wheeled drive "dad truck" it will get stuck the first time they go off road.

BigPaul has a good point. As my uncle said you NEVER go offroad with just one truck! I have been stuck so many times when I forget this statement.
Almost all the UK version of DDP showed was Bushcrafters and Wilderness surival types, few REAL Family preppers, and even fewer who would be daft enough to blow their OPSEC on a tiny island like This
Have you got her number? Lol
she's in the UK which makes it even worse.
a real Briton will never say "Citizen"
there are no "citizens" in Britain .. There are "Queen's subjects" in Britain.
you are not British.
you are a troll and a chatterbox who deceives the americans
go to hell, you know nothing.
You are the troll and an idiot, Brits have not been SUBJECTS for over 50 years and that was only ever in relation to passports, not Citizenship. EG the huge numbers of Ugandans and West Indians who came to the UK in the 1950s were granted british CITIZENSHIP as are up to 5 million Hong Kong chinese. Its time you were banned.
Play nice children. There seems to be a lot of people that think it’s ok to throw insults and be an ass.
anonymous ******* ... you said you sent me to the ban. why are you answering?

I have a 1970's Winnebago. The kind you drive as opposed to a trailer. I'd never want to drive it around though. It would be more of a bug out location and less of a bug out vehicle, as it can be tracked through the city fairly easily using CCTV cameras and ANPR at intersections. Too valuable of a commodity to risk having captured or needing to ditch it. I'd like to take it far away from the city and set it deep in the middle of the woods somewhere for future use as a safe house when necessary.
there’s a combination for the adventurous!
I’ve thought about buying a remote piece of land and setting up my camper on it. Still need to address water and septic though.
At least you were able to block your troll!

Good idea about the camper setting up in a remote place. Some problems with them, though, they're easy to break in to, and horrible to heat. We left our son our 28 ft travel trailer when we moved...he lives in it by himself. He is having someone put in a very small woodburner for heat. It's too easy to burn up a ton of propane in those things, they don't hold heat well at all. So, envisioning that, it reminds me of the old photos of gypsy caravans with the stove pipe coming out the top.

Good idea. The wife and I are going over to the coast this spring and look at some places.
That's kind of unrealistic for most. Most trailers have small pizza cutter tires and odd bolt patterns.
The vehicles towing them are usually 4X4 SUV, or trucks; many of them heavy duty. Haven't seen a trailer yet that has an 8 stud pattern that can fit double 35x12.5 per side. Never mind bigger! And I sure wouldn't want the bill of buying 8 brand new 37" plus spares!
Most are skinny and probably around 27".
