Nice! It was a little surreal to see that EcoFlow River Pro in the right nook of your trunk because I have one just like it in the same place in my Corolla.
A lot of beautiful parks and lakes in Oklahoma. the water is great to enjoy during the summer. Go and float the Illinois River by Tahlequah it’s peaceful and relaxing.
Good shit just get the car properly inspected bc there’s something about to break, Toyotas are super reliable unless you’re not doing the maintenance. Good luck on the trip !
Fuck yes, loving the commitment and instant dedication. Cocktails are on me when you make it through Kentucky. Safe travels and thanks again for sharing.
Love the spot for your 2 family members it’s beautiful and thoughtful , I do have 1 recommendation , in the event of an accident,everything in the back window will be a projectile to the front of the car , I’m a father and have a daughter about your age and so just looking out for you
Congratulations! Can't begin to describe how much I envy your freedom and the fact you're not afraid to walk your own path. I have no doubts you'll continue to handle whatever's thrown at you, keep on truckin.
Glad I found your channel! I’ve always wanted to do this same thing. Just pack up and travel the country. From one small creator to another I wish you the best of luck! Hope this channel becomes big
This is the sweetest comment, thankyou!! Love small creators supporting other small creators :) p.s. just gave you a follow! I like stuff with engines too 😁 (my Daddy was a mechanic, I was raised in his shop) 🛠❤️🔥
@@atinynomadSmall creators gotta stick together haha definitely stick with what you’re doing and you’ll blow up for sure. Also if you’re ever in Eastern MD and need work done on you’re car just give me a shout :)
Mad respect for following your dreams even though alot of people dont understand it. Be thankful it doesnt take alot of material and luxery to keep you happy. Im excited for you. That Toyota will run forever if you stay on top of the maintenence. Consider getting an animal like a dog or cat. You can do it. Youll have cold nights and hot days so plan ahead. Always keep atleast a gallon of water, flashlight, rope, any meds you take keep 1 week in reserve, couple cans of beenie weenie, rain coat, and consider getting a good pepper gun or a pistol. I know you got a knife and taser. Atleast get a pellet or bb gun thst looks real. . I wish you luck Gypsy girl. Youll have fun.
I'm sure you don't have much for extra cash, but you should get your windows tinted (ceramic tint if you can afford it). Way more privacy and it would change the feel of your living quarters. And you might just need a new radio and those are affordable, too. GL on your journey
I did get my windows tinted recently. I chose to go with the legal limit to prevent any issues with cops in different states. I'm also gonna be spending a significant amount of time in Alaska where any tint is illegal so I didn't want to make myself stand out by having a crazy dark tint. I do have blackout window coverings for privacy though and I feel safe when they're up. As far as the radio, I can afford to get it fixed but just don't want to. Been playing music on my phone and speakers for years now and it works for me. 😅🤷♀️
I've been watching your vids in reverse chronological order, for no particular reason, just when the algorithm brings them up. 😆 When you revealed the EcoFlow AC unit I was both laughing inside and envious at the same time. If/when I go back out on the road that would be SO nice to have along. Though I try to chase 70degs, there are times out would really come in handy. First, I have to get my EF Delta batt. fixed (doesn't take charge from solar panels 😕). Anyhoo, take care, and safe travels! ✌️
@@donwyates i actually ended up leaving my ecoflow AC behind just because it was so bulky and took up a ton of space. I’m so glad that I left it too bc the weather has been really nice lately. I think July was the worst of the heat so hallelujah
@@atinynomad well, it's been pretty hot down here in TX (90s-100s for highs). Hoping 🤞 for an early fall, but that's probably not going to happen. 😆 You may have answered this in another video, but, do you just overnight in Walmart & Cracker Barrel parking lots? I know some Home Depots will allow overnight stays too. If you ever want to boondock in a more natural area, near a the town of Alvord, TX, there's a place called the National Grasslands that's okay. It's kinda NW of the DFW area. That's one of the few BLM areas in the state. And it's free! Take care!
@@donwyates I honestly camp in all kinds of different parking lots. Grocery stores, gyms, restaurants, gas stations, rest areas, apartment complexes, etc. basically whatever is close by when I get tired 🤣 luckily my car is super stealthy and doesn’t look like anyone could possibly be sleeping in it haha so I’m never worried. Haven’t been asked to leave anywhere yet so we’ll see!
Brilliant video Gina! Really enjoyed everything about it :) If possible in the future, could you do a video revving up your car? So we can hear how it sounds!
Amazing! That would be really good if you could do such a video. Would be brilliant to see you Rev your car up whilst it is static. Sure your car sounds very nice! If you could show a pedal shot whilst you Rev your car up that would be much appreciated too!! Keep up the great videos 😀
I subscribed and I'm Excited for you and I'll follow your journey! I was in my car 2 years, and can't wait to hit the Road again, If you are ever in Wichita hit me up I'll buy lunch! Stay Adventurous, Be Safe!
August 1st is my official leave date! I'll be moved out of my apartment this month but I wanted to have July to focus on spending as much time with friends here as possible and to say goodbyes. I also have a safe place to park and live out of my car here so that'll give me a little test run to make sure the set up is to my liking before I head out. I can't wait! Weekly videos starting August. 😁 Edit: now leaving on my birthday, July 21st 🎉
I'm very sad you had to do this 😢 Living in a car is not something you do because you want to travel around the country. Other ways you would get an RV, so you can live properly. I hope things improve in the future, so you can afford a normal lifestyle, and afford leisure travels without economical restrain. Best wishes and take care! From the buttom of my heart 💚
No need to be sad for me man 😂 I'm happy as a clam! I didn't "have" to do this and I'm not broke. This is exactly what I want to do. I absolutely don't want to pull around a large trailer or anything of big size. Thankyou for your concern though. Take care!
@@uikmnhj4me I don't think anyone is moving into a car because it's "trendy". It's either because of financial reasons or the desire to travel or a combination of the two. It just so happens to be that some people enjoy watching car life videos so it can be fun to share the experience and build a community of like minded people along the way. And of course there are also a ton of people who think it's ridiculous as you can see in my comments. That's fine with me too! To each their own. 🙃
Although saving money will be a great perk of this lifestyle, the main reason I'm doing it is to have the freedom to travel and explore again. I love being able to move around state to state whenever I choose! The money saved will just go into my savings account :)
@@citizen_or_civilian what I contribute to society is quite frankly none of your business. I certainly don't go around posting negative comments on people's channels who are simply just living and enjoying their life. But if you shall know, I work a full time job while also in school studying exercise science, which again is 100% none of your business. Btw, not being so quick to judge other people that you don't know at all would be a fantastic contribution to our society. You should look into it.
Im in virginia, i drive a corolla and know basically everything there is to know the generation corolla you have. Bring it by and ill make sure it lives a long time. Mine haa over 300k miles no warning lights, with original accessories
Nice! Love to hear that! Fortunately I grew up in a family of mechanics so they will take of my car needs :) 🙏 but thanks! Sure hope mine lives to see the big 300K too 😁
@@atinynomad technically its a matrix xrs 6 speed with the 2zzge but still the dna of a corolla :) best thing you can do hands down is just use the cheapest oil but change it every 3k miles. The oil leaks it will have are from the timing chain tensioner o ring as it gets hard and brittle and the valve cover same story. Make sure your using the toyota/asian red coolant. Im 6'2 and i can fully lay down and sleep fully stretched out in the back of my matrix, i removed the passenger seat for more room works great.

Thanks so much! I come from a family of mechanics so they've taught me right on keeping everything maintained. 😁
That sounds so fun, can’t wait to see updates on how it goes!
Nice! I bought a 2007 Corrola last year and it's been great. I just hit 250k on it.

i love peeing in a cup in a corolla, the water resistance is top notch. never had a complaint when ubering
Sure thats not a Toyota MAXIMA? 😂 That's a setup for sure! I'm diggin it!

I'm actually building something this weekend for extra support back there bc yes. The skates have went flying a couple times 🤣
Luv it it thought I need a bigger vehicle but I'm wasting so much room mmm I need to reorganise mine lol
