Background
Driveabout.com is part of Walkabout Travel Gear, a long-running travel-related business focused on practical gear and real-world use.
Origins
Walkabout Travel Gear began in 1995 as an early online business. The focus from the beginning was on simple, functional travel equipment rather than complex or specialized systems.
Related Projects
In addition to Driveabout, Walkabout Travel Gear operates other independent projects. One of these is Glampabout.com, which focuses on portable camping setups and flexible alternatives to RV travel.
Each site is built separately with its own structure and focus. Driveabout is dedicated specifically to Tesla car camping, while Glampabout covers broader portable camping systems.
Driveabout.com
Driveabout.com was created to focus specifically on Tesla car camping. Unlike broader camping sites, it is intentionally limited to one approach: sleeping in a Tesla and using the vehicle itself as the camping system.
Current Focus
The site continues to focus on practical Tesla car camping setups, including sleeping arrangements, Camp Mode use, and gear that works within the vehicle.
