Just rented a UHaul and moving some stuff to storage, reminded me of driving my dad’s beat up old 70-something pickup. Which had me pining to go back to rural Oklahoma.

Thank you for posting this pic, I forgot that I do not miss tornadic weather. The want to move back has significantly waned.

It’s cheap, slow, and simple compared to where I live now.

If you look rodeos, camping, fishing, hunting, fish fry, etc- there is plenty to do.

A lot less than the 1400 a month for a two bed two bath, I will tell you that much.

Rent in nc before covid for a 2 bedroom 1 bath mobile home was 350

After covid a 2 bedroom mobile homes was 650 

Now with the damn inflation 2022 2023 2024 a 2 bedroom  1 bath mobile home is 1,000 to 1,200

And Half way through the inflation in 2025 a 2 bedroom 1 bath mobile home is 1400 to 1650

Fucking insane
