Truck Tour of Solo Woman Living Cheap in a U-Haul Box Truck
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 5 сен 2024
- Marcia (who goes by the name of Delusional Gypsy) has been living in a converted U-Haul for over 3 years now after converting it to an astonishing Tiny Home on Wheels. She's 69 years young and loves her new life of adventure on wheels. She paid $1500 for a 1996 Ford Box-Truck that had lived its previous life as a U-Haul Rental. She put another $1500 into the conversion and repairs and she has one of the world's cheapest and best cozy little home on wheels! (RTR stands for a large gathering of nomads I host in Quartzsite Arizona called the Rubber Tramp Rendezvous).

Thanks for watching!
It’s amazing to see how little people actually need to live a free and happy life.
That's my Nana, I love it when you find and interview people who have simplified their lives and use the things that are available, You would think that is too much for her but she handles it well and has it organized. Yes she is an inspiration for peers who are thinking about firing their landlords and living the free life. Well done
She’s amazing!
A sailor and his dog SlyKnight , I would be so proud to have her in my family, she is truly inspiring
@Reee Flex boy is that a limited view of reality. You have no idea what constitutes a life lived.
Why would anyone think it was too much for her? That is simply your opinion. Don't assume other people can't do things because you do not want others to make assumptions about you.
A Nana to be proud of!
I had the pleasure of meeting Marcia this morning in Glenwood NM. She’s a beautiful soul.
@Grace Sullivan I have not seen her since. She seemed to be quite well last year.
I honesty would love to get a vehicle like this for myself.
I love this lady. She is smart, funny, and just a real joy to listen to.
Are you sure she is 69? She is more youthful than most people half her age!
Shavauna Ronan That’s because millennials are depressed liberals that believe college is the only way to go, only to realize they have a low income job topped with crippling student debt.
Got that right. They’re also so worried about offending their fellow special snowflakes by using the wrong pronoun, etc. that they never just enjoy life!
K W In Canada, it’s considered a hate crime to use the wrong pronoun.
Shavauna Ronan what???😂😂😂😂 my guess was 79 she does not look youthful..FYI he was joking...
She might not look young but atleast she is up and about. Not just sitting on her ass playing video games or watching RUclips lol. I would do love to live like that. Love the way she decorated too. Sure not afraid of color! Beautiful
What a great little home on wheels. She put so much personality into it, I love it.
Just goes to show you really don't have to spend 100 grand on a mobile home. Ingenuity and creativity are wonderful especially when combined. Thanks for sharing.
Being older myself l enjoy seeing other Seniors being adventurous. Nothing can hold us back! l enjoyed this interview so much!!!! Judie
This lady reminds me of my mother. She is 74 and still plates football with the great grand kids. Love you mom.
What a happy soul she is, now if she can spread that around, society would be far better.
God Bless her & keep on trucking!! She's has a beautiful heart of gold & a beautiful soul! I wish her the best & many safe journeys. She is an Inspiration for many! Such a lovely lady with a young heart. God & JESUS, please keep her happy, safe & keep her by your side. GOOD idea having the doggies & kitty too. 💙👼💙🕊⚘🌲🥀
The Main thing, she has a Roof over her Head . Some folks Loves living by themselves. They don’t want to even live with their own Children. I can Really relate. I’m just so glad she has a Mindset to Strive and Live on her own terms . GOD Protect her Amen .😊❤️
This is all a person needs !! She has the good life, she has a warm home, it is comfortable, she can live mostly on her terms. No wasting money or unwanted stuff. Her home is comfortable, I would park this near a beautiful creek and live happily . God bless her.
Wow, that's a wise women taking charge of her life without letting this world dictate how she should live, and the name she gave herself, 👍
@Vend Master Thumbs up.
Judith Williamshudson 🙅👏👏👏
Stumbled upon this page....What a GREAT idea! A used U Haul truck! Such wonderful souls living life to the fullest!
All I can say is wow and bravo to you. I love your pretty home on wheels. When I was 55 I looked into 55 and over apartments and senior (62yrs) apartments. Very few waiting lists. I moved into my first 55+ apartment at 59. I thought it was going to be a wonderful experience and in some ways it is nice. However in my opinion, people are not meant to live so close together and give up too much of their privacy. It is not for me. Now there are long waiting lists for fixed income senior apartments. The demand is great and the supply is slow for affordable nice senior living. Smart lady. :)
I just love her. Reminds me of my grandmother who died many years ago. She built her own little cabin out of a shed and came up with so many clever ideas. She loved to travel and help out friends and relatives. I think she would have loved this type of life.
If fear holds you back, just remember, the minute you pull out onto the road with your new home... you have entered into, NOT JUST a very TIGHT KNIT, SUPPORTIVE CREATIVE & MOTIVATED COMMUNITY... But a CULTURE. A living breathing movement, being directed by the truths of our world today. Lean on that, & remember, you are wise:)
Certainly words to live by. What a beautiful thing for you to say. Thank you.
I had a 14' U Haul truk that i turned into a very comfy home, i insulated it good and it could B 100° outside and it wd stay around 80° inside
Tom Catt oh man, 80 is still too hot for me. Lol. I need it 70 all the time. 😢
Sounds PURRFECT !
Hello from Arizona. I've been watching this channel for a couole of months now and I crave this lifestyle. I've been wanting to live like this, since I was 15.(now 39) Truly admire all of the people that take the plunge and live like this.
Her decorating style is absolutely lovely. I love the ceiling, the "crock pot lid" skylight, the wallpaper, the wood, the hanging jar-light, the purple door, the screen...she should get a gig doing women's campers! I'd LOVE for her to do mine when I get one! I also love the "box" that hr nephew made her with the little antlers on the corners! Awesome! Just adorable taste in decorating.
I'm happy to see this young lady making it in her home!
Blessings to her!!! Dog lover !!!! We are the best people !!! She needs her own RUclips channel!
Her home is absolutely BEAUTIFUL!
This is the cutest home on wheels!! She did a GREAT job with that truck. It’s cozy and so adorable! Nice work, Marcia ❤️
Loved this home on wheels! What is so beautiful is the FREEDOM of our Nomads!
Karen Behymer ,
She did a good job making her home on wheels comfortable for herself and her animals. May God bless her.
I would so do the uhaul truck love this since my husband of thirty years has decided he needs to find himself with a younger woman this life style has me thinking
Good luck granny! You still look very young yourself.🌄
@@joseluissayagog.3680 thanks on all counts I am 52 with 7 grandkids lol
This was great !! She's awesome and I'm glad to see she's so happy. The thing about a box truck is you don't have to bend over all the time, you have room to be straight up !
I am loving this idea. Have been thinking of an RV C but hers is so much more comfortable looking. She has everything plus a truck engine!
This woman is so creative. Very inspiring. Blessings to her!
Very inspiring
She is bad ass! THIS is how getting older can be. She lives her life as she wants and desires, is spunky, sassy and industrious.
Love it!
Marcia you are an inspiration. What a wonderful home you have made. I'm so glad Bob met you and interviewed you for us. 💕🦉🇦🇺
Living the dream... on her own terms, unlocked and untethered = happiness! Go Marcia
wow....I am so inspired. She looks so HAPPY
I love what Delusional Gypsy has done with her home. It seemed so big inside. It was very warm and welcoming.
Very smart lady! She's great! You find the best people Bob
Thank Dilusional Gypsy for showing us her home. That's an awesome home!!!
Wow she’s truly happy
Its just amazing to me how people that do this seem to be so much happier..I've been watching videos like this for 2 years now and every person that does this is just happy.....its just seems like so much freedom
What an art piece! So creative and beautiful!
In ten years time, this'll be me, age 67 and still on my feet (hopefully.) I'm staring retirement in the face in a decade and planning the rest of my life; I think I could do this.
At a point in life when ya might be confined within someone else's house rules, her creativity is blooming' in freedom . A joy to see, thanks.
Man isn't that the truth!
Well said!
Lee Keeling well said
At this point in life, anyone has the right to make there own choices. Most people do not have to be confined to anyone else house. You are in control of your destiny.
What a darling sweet lady! Love what she did with her rig. So charming with all the little touches and color! Another great interview Bob. Thanks!
👍Wow! Such a nice lady & nice mobile home set up. I’d never guess she was 69!! I love her independence & free spirit. Thanks for sharing. 🤗💞🤗
She did a great job in customizing it to her needs.
She is fantastic! Loving, funny and full of joy. She has it together!
I love the colors Marcia has used inside. And how resourceful she has been. It will be great when she has solar and can hv her tv/dvds all the time when she travels. Best wishes, Marcia. You really are an inspiration and delight.
Great House. Glad I watched. I'm recovering from cancer and been wanting to travel. Thinking hard about school buses but didn't want it to look like every other converted bus( same old, same old). You have showed me you can make it any way you want. Such a great decor, love it.
Marcia I love everything you did.... so neat and great ideas.... Thanks Bob for sharing another great video....
She is a inspiration ! And I loved her ceiling, well I loved the whole thing.
Lovely 69 year old grandmother that sells jewelry and "rocks". How amazing, gotta love it!
That seems more spacious than a RV what a cute girly set up nice job. :
Thanks Delusional Gypsy Happy Trails 😁
Oh my I just love her such a smart lady & wonderful home . I had a 02 u-haul i used for flea markets i then thought about doing what she did instead i had to sell it i was in a financial bind after divorcing but my mobile home & land was paid for i owned before I married. Lot's of luck to her thanks Bob this is the best video yet.
God Bless this wonderful lady living her freedom to the max!
Bob, you are so right, Marcia is an inspiration & a beautiful young 69 year old lady. Thank you for this lovely video. Her home is lovely.
Second time I've watched this video of Delusional Gypsy's box truck tour as I'm gathering more ideas to build out my new "home on wheels". She is delightful and I look forward to meeting her on the road sometime.
What an engaging person! Bob you found another gem in the desert! Love the personality in the build.
And not a bad use of space.
What a great disposition Marcia (Delusional Gypsy) has. Love seeing people out there living the dream!
Thanks Bob for bringing her to the attention of subscribers.
Bob, I am in property management/maintenance. I wanted to let you know that many of your ideas translate to my profession.
I often go to repair rental homes that have no electricity or utilities on. Your ideas on power, carrying water, organization, storage and vehicles have improved my obscene profits even more. I own 2 pick-ups ,1 Jeep and 1 trailer. Now, I'm shedding the two pick-ups and trailer for a Roadmaster Pro because of you. The extra pick-up was my "back up," on the job. Now, the Roadmaster can be my "Bug Out!" back-up option and used on the job until then.
You are an inspiration, and I love your ideas. Thank you for sharing your story.
Howdy Marcia, if your travelling to El Paso TX, stop in at Rainwater Laundromat in El Paso, 8 to 8 7day a week. Got a nice hook up too, stay awhile. My be able to stay lot longer and work too.
Did she stop by?
Thanks Marcia for showing us your home. I like that its much bigger than a Van and you can drive it also. Blessings to you. Teri
she is lovely and this is my fave so far look at all that room
This beautiful woman laugh makes me happy.🤗🤗🤗
Clever idea to reno a U-Haul. She has a cute set-up - so cheery and colorful!
"WONDER-FULL"!!!🌄🌄🚀😊
Marsha you are a delight!...and amazingly resourceful!
Love her and her positive attitude!!
She's a very nice person. I could set and talk with her all day. And I like her little home too. Thank you be blessed.
Marcia is absolutely delightful! I am inspired.
Damn! This is so inspiring! This woman has the spirit of a 20 year old. I hope to be like her at that age.
Another great insight of living on the road by a most kind and humble host. -Best, -hg
I loved this video, and the lady I will be moving in another month, this is truly a great idea I'm 70 and wll be living in my mini van until i save up enough to consider something else, this is for me the best move I've seen that would probably fit my style. Thanks for sharing.
She is a GEM OF A LADY AND I LOVED HER U HAUL HOME AND WHAT SHE HAS DONE ON THE INSIDE AND OUT TOO LOOKS AWESOME THANK YOU FOR SHARING THIS WONDERFUL VIDEO BOB 👍👍👍👍❣️
Stop yelling !
She is AWESOME. I love that her home is a true reflection of her. ❤
This is a cool lady, congrats! My first one was a 1 ton, box van! It had a lift on the back! Nice job!
God bless you Miss Gypsy live everything you did with your gorgeous home and it shows how happy you are keep doing what your doing honey and you do look younger and stronger the lots of young people I know with 26 years of age and feel old omg.
God bless you and protect you every where you go.
OMG this lady rocks! truly inspirational.
I love all the positive comments, I’ve only read a handful but it’s great seeing people getting along and appreciating others doing creating stuff without bashing them. ❤️ Cheers!
Marcia, thank you for shining the spotlight on ladies self defense. Stay safe!
Wow, she has a lovely home, love that aqua color. So light and cozy on the inside
She is so sweet and seems so happy. I bet she spoils that cat rotten ❤
What an amazing lady. I Love her house
Three cheers for no debt!
What an awesome woman! She's living life exactly as she likes and there can't be much better than that!
Just love her decor! Cute and cozy aqua. 🐦
Marcfia you are wonderful! My daughter in love just took to the road. She and my son divorced sometime ago, but we stay in touch. She is in her early 60s and I am in my early 70's.She has a doggie as well and a custom made van tye thing. I I walked through her new "home" and I am impressed and inspired! I am a cheerleader for seniors and still working as a counselor, senior life coach, minister....lead a few food shelves and still writing. I am also a licensed minister. I am loving this life and encourage others to do so. Stay in motion! The best is yet to come!
I love it! This is exactly what I've thought about doing. But my kids think I'm crazy. Gotta show them this video and say see, it can be done and it doesn't cost that much.
Carol Thompson I agree! I am 69, on oxygen full time, and I bought my van 2 days ago. We should find a couple of other old ladies and caravan together to put our kids minds at rest!
There was a time when I thought it was a little crazy. Now I'm looking at this lifestyle for myself.
sandi hendricks I'm game just sold everything & have camper .
Charity Long I am in Oregon. What state are you in?
I'm hoping to sell everything and become a nomad sometime within the next 6 months. There are lots of Facebook groups you can join to find others to join in this adventure with.
l love how cosy the layout is and the hidden toilet was a gem, l didnt know it was there until you said, l think you are an inspiration, and thank you to Class A Living for a wonderful video.
This is so cute, love the windows and the door with the screen, just cute
I love that so much. These type of people have such great adventures traveling and not worry about their homes, it s always with them.
I love this home. The colors are so lovely! And the real furniture makes for such a happy home. When you get your web page up, ill be in line for some brass knuckles and a pretty pair of earrings. 😁😘
marymelcher1 Haha!! Great combo :-)
That woman is living my dream. Awesome!!
Thank you for sharing.....when these videos start inside, as this one did, it's hard to get perspective of the layout. I like it when you start outside, go through the door and do a panoramic scan.
What an absolute Joy she is and so Innovative in utilizing her space so effectively this is the person that you would love knowing
Just love Marcia!! What a great home!!
Beautiful home and decorated so pretty.
I love this lady! She's so creative. I wish her safe travels.
👍👍👍 I hope she is still well and thriving! Tyft! 🍃🌻🐸
D. Vines....yep still goin strong and sellin my wares for a tank of gas! Thanks for askin'.... Delusional Gypsy
She's awesome! Love her colors - I'm a turquoise fan, too :)
So cute love how bright & cheerful it is .
This is looking like a REAL option for ME!
I've seen some of this videos and setting apart the nice people who share their beautiful tiny homes I really enjoy the respectful way the host make the questions and always complement the furniture or ideas the owners had to resolve their needs.
