Can I open-source Roadtrippers?
YES · mature open-source replacementYes. TREK (12k stars), AdventureLog (4k stars) are mature open-source replacements for Roadtrippers — self-host with docker and stop paying $3/mo.
People still pay for Roadtrippers because travel subscriptions sell current data and confidence during disruption, not just an itinerary list. The recurring cost buys map licensing, fare feeds, reservation access, route freshness, disruptions, geocoding, caching, offline data, and support, not just the visible interface.
