I really appreciate everyone's input. I'm starting to really understand what it's going to take. I'm still not willing to spend too much; maybe $5000, but I've decided that I would be uncomfortable boondocking anyways. I will most likely begin a search for trailer trailers and an RV park in my...

I've posted a few links to rigs recently, so you're probably sick of me, but what are your thoughts on the following rigs? See any gems in there? By gem, I mean something that would have mostly cosmetic issues for someone planning on urban boondocking and mostly avoiding long roadtrips.. And...
