wife and I need help to get out--looking for a place to live in exchange for labor, etc.

I'm not certain I understand what you are asking.

Are you seeking somewhere to homestead?

yes with little notice have truck knowledge skills and tools

What part of the world are you looking to move to?

Ah, so you and your wife would like someplace rural to live on short-term notice. You have to offer:

Trucks

Backwoods/survival skills and knowledge

Tools (what type?)

Hard work

Is there a specific region your looking for? Would you be interested in intentional communities, or living on someone's property in exchange for helping them out? We have quite a few forums that I can post your inquiry in, and some threads you might be interested in.

If Missouri isn't too far, you might try contacting Josh Everhart. He's part of a homestead cooperative that is looking for people to come, live and help out there. Here's the link to his profile. If you click the envelope icon, it'll take you to a page to write a message to him: https://permies.com/u/240210/Josh-everhart

If Montana sounds nice, and you have $100, you might be interested in Paul Wheaton's "Bootcamp" where labor is traded for food staples, permaculture training, and a place to pitch a tent. If you stay long enough, you can earn a place to rent for free. More info here: https://permies.com/t/59706/permaculture-projects/permaculture-bootcamp-learn-permaculture-hard
