    Really like these style videos to mix in with adventure/views/travel. Always nice to watch videos that make you feel like a friend is sharing some thoughts and life updates over coffee. This one captured that well and the cozy AF vibes are a great backdrop. Stay warm out there!

    Living in my truck for 4 years. 1. Better have money saved. 2. Truck breaks down, better have a secondary place to stay. 3. Better keep maintenance up on your truck. 4. Have emergency bag with 4 season gear. 5. Don't depend on anyone. 6. Better know some survival skills.

    Wife and I lived in one for couple years, plus 2 dogs ( 8 1/2' ext.cab over ), it was fun. But you have to row with the problems and it seems you've got the right ideas for your age, Great Going!! Is good thing to have Home to come back to , to regroup. Be careful, be aware, enjoy.

    I wanna build one for my truck but afraid to let my apt go its so cheap but this place is bad. I own a class c but its git a sag on its left side i think its under my counter n down the wall rom a window when its parked a certain way in rain. Not sure wha to do n cant fix it till spring cuz its sept n not surebi have time to reno it n get proper heat in it n insulated thicker before snow flies come nov. But i wanna leave so bad. I can leave in camper n park many places n this place is tiny anyhow. It gives me security not peace n too many ppl are here n lots a drama drugs n drinking. I cant sit still i thrivenl off meeting ppl traveling n seeing new places n the bushes camping n change of scenery is what i need all the time. Im afraid to leave n make a mistake rigt now but i gotta go so bad n this place is just gettin worse with te drug use in the building. It comes in my unit so strong n they are not dealing with it. Its so hot here too. Least my ac in either vehicle would keep me cool n warm in winter i think if i had a tiny wood stove.... your vid makes me feel less worried.
