      I am not either but it's nice going around different states in either a pop up camper or RV to new places to see. I have a couple upcoming trips at nice state and national parks in America and Canada that provides electric , showers, bathrooms all the recreational things and with tables, stove beds on the inside, it really is not all that bad. But I won't go off grid until my new 1200 solar panel system with 16 hour battery bank is installed in the months to come. We use it to escape Hurricanes more so these days then actual camping though.

    I had a wonderful system for tarp camping out of the back of my old Volvo Cross Country Station wagon for the entirety of my undergrad years. I kayaked a lot and camped by the rivers I floated. Most kayak rental places would also have a riverside campground. I had mud tires on that car which got a lot of sideways looks, and a Thule roof rack that would hold my kayak, and on those weekends where I'd rent a boat instead of brining my own, a Thule car topper cargo box. I had 10 powerful neodymium magnets I used with a 20x12 tarp that attached to my roof rack with lumber clamps and the sides of the car with the magnets. The raised rear hatch was aluminum so the magnets didn't work on it, but that was OK. The fold flat seats gave me an outstanding place to sleep.

      That makes me sad to read. I was that way too. I’ve been sober from cannabis for about two years now. It’s hard to explain to people who currently smoke how damaging it can be when doing it persistently, or even just using it to sleep. I hope you can get passed it…if you haven’t already. Love from the Southwest US ❤

    Hey Steve, even with having lots of ventilation, you need to have an CO detector. It's not about keeping O2 in the air, it's keeping CO out of your lungs. As you breathe in even low amounts of CO, it semi-permanently binds to your red blood cells and doesn't allow O2 to be carried by the affected cells. You could suffocate yourself in an O2 rich environment due to long-term (overnight, or maybe a couple days depending on the concentration in the air) continuous inhaling of CO.
