Corpus is ghetto and disgusting

Right now I’m going out for a hamburger; I’m so hungry!!!😂

Hell no where are you from cause my daughter live in Portland Tex and you just show what you want to people to see

Omg!!! I'm a nervous wreck watching this video! Please lower the background music next time.

CC is ghetto but its a working class town not really a tourist destination. its badly run and there are some parts that are def ghetto but it is a pretty town and the draw of the coast and padre island is what makes CC great. i love CC, my kids love it...spent a good portion of my youth there. if you aint gonna visit the lexington, the aquarium or the beach, why go to CC?

I live here.......and I'm trying to leave here.

I had an orange cat named tennessee

Corpus Christi has too many abandoned commercial buildings, looks a bit antiquated, and has quite a bit of rough bumpy roads.

The dirty south 👍🏼

A lot of hit and runs and terrible drivers

Corpus is tired and outdated. It’s an industry city more than a tourist city. While Texas beaches aren’t the best, it’s what we have, know, and grew up with. Corpus has a ton of potential but it will be, for the lack of a better word, forever stuck.

It all starts with our city council. They won't allow newer better things. Without that changing nothing will. I am a born n raised Corpus Christi native.

Outstanding video my friend.

I was raised in Corpus and still have tons of friends and family there. Never going back.

Hello Matt Good job!

My kids are Texans !!!

Nice

Thanks matt

I suspect if this guy won the lottery he'd complain it wasn't enough.

I live in DFW and we deal with spectrum outages every week for years now. Spectrum trucks been up and down this street a million times and hasn’t gotten any better.

May be relocating ti this region very soon.

Born and raised here. Their is not a getto per se there are alot of hard working Hispanics and they are good people. Do not be afraid to go on and see the beatifull city by the sea and of course home of the Miller Buccaneers.

Bro! It’s a port city Will be number one port in USA So yeah it’s industrial Ocean Drive is gorgeous South Side is a very clean and safe area Downtown is transitioning Very pretty city

Are you the one who animated chickn nuggit videos?

If you are talking about ghetto, just go into the city instead of staying on Ocean Drive and industry area.

I always say the CC is like a smaller version of Houston 😂

Corpus isn’t ghetto because of the buildings, it’s ghetto because of the people

The city could be nice but THE PEOPLE ARE! They're proud to be "Corpitos" and "hood" and "street". They're fat uneducated, and proud to be that way. The city spent a lot of money redoing the bus system and improving the waterfront, only for them to be vandalized, and grafitti'd within 2 months.

Lol. Trump does. Yiure just told he doesn't. You clearky dont pay attention. The poor don't vote? Guess you cant complain then. People lived better under Trump. Youre not smart. 😂

A nitpick (without disagreeing), the system is oligarchic and technocratic. Turning "communist" into a boogeyman has been just another distraction. To paraphrase you from yesterday, "A working class American, Russian and Chinese citizen have more in common than they don't." The Overton window is laughably skewed - Joe Biden is centre-right on most things, and pure centrist on everything else. Bernie (left-centre-left) respects the poor... although even he has bowed to the system in many ways.

That is why I stayed here in Phl to help the suffering poor.

"A real redneck and a hood-rat have more in common than they don't", Love it! If only that were more widely known! A sad sad truth about the voting issue though... (Never heard "hood-rat" before - I can't tell, is that similar to a "gang-banger"? Maybe all gang-bangers are hood-rats, but not all hood-rats are gang-bangers?)

Are you from here? Don’t criticize this city!! It’s no worse and much better than!! other cities.

Good luck driving your car without those refineries. They are way out of town! I’ve lived here most of my life I love this town. Most other places you go are the exact same way.

Thanks for the insight i apricate it!!!

Beautiful to listen to

Good luck on the project. If you have time, can I ask a few questions (from a purely cultural perspective): How great is the cultural difference between the two coastal regions of the US, and what is the nature of that difference? What is the culture of the American (Mid?)West (in as few words as possible, excluding freedom which I see as a political aspect)? Culturally (not politically), how many "countries" is the US really? (Preferably less than 10 - it would be too easy to say "Fifty" 😉 - although, of course, not necessarily inaccurate) And finally, what is wrong with the questions I have asked? What misunderstandings do they show?

I cut my teeth on Louis L'More, John Wayne and Charlie Russell. Cowboys horses and cattle, pioneers, gold miners, Little House on the Prairie, they will find that in my DNA when they dig up my bones a thousand yesrs from now. ❤ Your project sounds exciting!

I also love the West.

sprinter truck camper for the win tall n lots of options

Sounds like your trying to convince yourself not to do this. Do you.

i think it should be illegal to drive aimlessly and waste gas and pollute and crowd our parks and natural camping areas. Vacations are great and usually last a couple weeks once or twice a year. not for 6 months.

Hey Matt what’s good I was born and raised in Corpus Christi born September 1998 I left this city when I was 20 I’ll be 26 soon currently live in Phoenix Arizona planning on moving to Jacksonville in the future but yeah the reason why Corpus Christi looks the way it does economically socially because it reflects the dumb ass ignorant medievalist mindset that people have in the country side of Texas and that’s in Corpus Christi just in a City form and the reason to that it’s a small city I only like to visit it’s nice to visit it’s only good for tourism but I’ll never live there again hell no and I can’t stand how religious most of everyone is I’m secular and believe in individual pro choice politically I’m independent libertarian but Corpus Christi doesn’t even think like that it’s 1500S religious conservative mindset that’s why it’s been rank one the one stupid and uneducated in the United States 🇺🇸

How remote do you guys want to be? I am an astrophotographer, and do a two week cycle in the western deserts at a dark spot when the moon is gone, then two weeks near a town with a Walmart for the two weeks that the moon washes out the sky. I am seriously equipped for living long periods in comfort on BLM land. I converted a new 16 ft cargo trailer to a boondocking machine for myself and my Golden Retriever. I have a ton of solar power and batteries, shower with on demand water heater, a compost toilet, and a 100 gallon fresh water tank in the bed of the truck that hooks up to a water inlet in the nose of the trailer in seconds. I have a big 120 volt home fridge. Your obstacles are going to be electricity, water, and getting your tanks emptied when needed. Without building a boondocking rig, you might want to check out places like the LTVA's near Quartzsite, Arizona. These long term visitor's areas charge I think around $180 for a 7 month permit. This gives you easy access to water and a dump station, but you still have to figure out a source of power. If you have a way to carry several solar panels to mount on the ground at your campsite, that can provide some basic electricity for charging devices, Starlink, etc. I am not a fan of factory built RV's, and think the quality is usually really terrible these days. A brand new rig can instantly become an unusable money pit. I have often seen people buy a new rig only to have it spend months and months in the repair shop, causing them to have to cancel their vacation plans. If you want something built right, you really do have to do it yourself. Nothing has broken on my homebuilt RV in three years, and I have all the comforts of home (microwave, fridge, toaster, coffee maker, deep fryer, etc., no matter how far I am from civilization.

I live in a 16ft box truck I like what bob wells said, its about freedom vs comfort If you want more freedom, you'll have to sacrifice comfort. If you want more comfort, you'll have to sacrifice freedom. I suppose it would relate to your project and how much you want to be able to park in the city, how easily you want to be able to navigate cities in towns, how stealthy you want to be etc If you're just going to be going on big roads and being in BLM land you could probably get away with having a larger rig, but if you plan on maneuvering in the city or parking in the city having a large rig will not work I think a ram ProMaster a Ford Transit is probably the best combination of both, you can stand up, have a queen size bed with storage underneath, a tv, cooking, sync sink For toilet, most people who decide to do something fancy end up going to the bucket bag method. It's cheap and easy and not really much different from using a regular toilet. Instead of water there is sawdust, instead of flushing there is tying plastic. Gym memberships for the easiest for showering, but if you're going to be out in the wilderness you'll need to decide on a method to stay clean. There's a lot of different options from shower tents to specially designed wet wipes, good old-fashioned sponge baths, or a built-in shower

You don't have to commit to anything. There is no right way or wrong way, just what works for you and what doesn't. I know a guy that lives out of a jeep. Travels and camps out under the stars of in a tent and has been doing it for years. I live in a jeep cherokee, stealth camping or Walmart lot docking.

Rent different camping vehicles for a weekend, then decide.

I have been a part-time van dweller since 2018. I travel solo, or with my wife, or with my adult son. I'm also 6'3". Yes, a van is possible, but I can't say it is right for you. You should test out various options. I would suggest that you rent a Class C for a week (long before your project) to test that out. Additionally, go to camping shows to see how you fit into various rigs, like truck campers or trailers. You will have a much better idea of what works for you. The most important thing to have is a bed that you feel comfortable in. This is especially important when you are traveling with 2 people, as you double your space requirements. What is your budget? Motor homes can be very expensive and many won't go down a rough road, but they are fancy. A truck camper with a 4 wheel drive truck can go many places. A van is a great in between solution as it drives almost like a car and it can go down some dirt roads, but not as well as a 4 wheel drive truck. Are you mechanical or not? If not, do not buy an old van, high mileage truck or vintage camper, which can be constant sources of headaches. I considered a trailer, mini school bus, and a van. I went with a van and had some of the basics installed professionally in 2018. However, I have since greatly modified much of the interior with the help of a friend. I camped in a SUV for a while, and it is possible to do so with very little and a very simple no-build build. In my case I used an air mattress and a sleeping bag. I had a basket with basics like a hiking stove, flashlight, and hiking cook set. It worked, but it wouldn't be great for long periods (at least not for me). People live in everything from compact cars to giant school busses, so it is hard to give you good advice, with the exception of trying options out before you commit. You may find that you like a Jeep with a roof tent, or maybe you will feel that you need a fancy RV. it is also important to realize that you will not only have an adjustment period, but living on the road may initially feel rough as so many of the day to day things that you do are different (like washing dishes or keeping clean). However, if you commit you can adjust and these new things will become routine. As others have said, watch CheapRVlining on RUclips. Bob Wells is an amazing resource. As far as power is concerned, you need to determine your needs. If you want a fridge, and are using a powerful editing computer, plus recharging many cameras and drones, you will need more. Most van dwellers don't have AC as it uses too much electricity, they use fans and vents which are more energy efficient. Are you going to be in sunny areas? Then consider solar panels. Are you going to be doing a lot of daily driving, perhaps a DC to DC charger can top you house battery off. Are you going to need a generator? (most don't use one). Are you planning to only boon dock, or will you sometimes use a campground? If it is the latter you can use the campground's AC to charge your batteries up. I can charge my house batteries both with solar panels on my roof and from the car's alternator. I have a small generator, but I have never used it. However, if I lived in Canada I it might be needed due to the long low light winters. What about the internet. Will you need it to upload you photos to the cloud? If you do there are videos on the best options. Some use several cell carriers on their phones or their hotspots. Others, are into Starlink (a newer option). Still others, work in coffee shops and public libraries where they can plug in their computers and use free wifi. Again, I would urge you to try before you buy. Some people get by with almost nothing, others need a Vitamix and an espresso machine and a full on shower. Good luck on your adventure.

I’m sorry if you’re a liberal my friend. Small towns, with small town people are the best. They are the life blood of America. We are simple, honest, hard working, America loving American Citizens. God bless America. 👍🏻❤️🇺🇸

Think about a decommissioned ambulance and rebuild it.
