Living in my car was something I thought about doing for years, however I allowed fear to stop me. The ego mind would say things like your going to be judged and talked about. This is why I was depressed because I would listen to this voice and let it control my life. Reading, meditation and mindfulness helped me listen to my thoughts from a 3rd person and actually quiet the inner dialogue. So now I do what I want not what the ego wants and I’m living my best life in my car. I can go anywhere I please and this freedom brings me joy. I’m learning a lot about myself in solitude. This has been something special for me. I’m so grateful I’ve been given this opportunity. Thanks for being here with me!
I lived in my car for 4 months to save money and get my credit back in shape I didn't realize it at first but it was one of the best decisions I've ever made. It humbled me and taught me how to save and respect money
7 years! You're a veteran at this friend. I’m new to this and learning a lot about myself + society's backward norms. It’s a wonderful way of life if you ask me too.
Thank you Aisha. I actually allowed fear of judgment to stop me from doing this for a few years. However 2020 shifted my energy and I started to slowly not care about anyone’s opinion of myself but my own. I’m still an amazing king living in my car or an expensive apartment. I’m so glad you found inspiration.
@@FoodTrucksForDummies That's beautiful! I am glad you pushed past fear because you are truly an inspiration. 2020 hit those judgmental, materialistic individuals hard, HARD...and watch - those same folk that judged you will soon be looking to you for guidance. Spread that good knowledge, King. The New World needs you....🌟
Yesssss Queen Aisha. Your coming with me. We need leaders and free thinkers like you to build this tribe of Warriors. Your comment means so much to me my love. I almost allowed my ego from stopping me to even record/upload this video. I was like listen brain your fine. Let me steer the ship now.
@@FoodTrucksForDummies I've been in Martial Arts since I was 7, so I'm forreal built for this shit. Ready to lead a new generation of Warriors, ready to build where our high level ancestors left off. Yes - It's our time now, let's get it! And please, keep sharing your stories. Teach your ego who is really in control...
You’ve been training for spiritual warfare since the age of 7 for a reason too. The reason may be still unclear but I see the clarification. Your definitely a old souls that choose to come back during this particular time to handle something powerful. I love what you said about high level ancestry. It’s time ✨
I am the same, disconnecting to get away from those vibrations! I love this, I am going full time in my prius in a matter of days. will keep watching you!
@@FoodTrucksForDummies I did it! Moved out today! Gotta handle some stuff but will post video of my stealth camper mobile disco and hit you up 😇 Sedona next Tuesday 🌄
Yay congratulations Jess! I was thinking about you yesterday. I'm moving back into a house to start my business. It was so fun while living in my car. I almost wish I could continue but this business requires an actual business space. I'm going to be looking out for you videos. Have fun and remember the first few days is an adjustment. Remember your always safe and we don't believe in fear it's not real.
Congratulations for recognizing what you need and require for your self-care. Many of us that are sensitive to the world and work within this physical realm differently often times do not recognize or haven't been shown/educated how to do things differently to take care of ourselves for fear of change, fitting in, societal/family criticisms. You are on the path that is showing you how to manage this planet and hopefully others will be inspired in finding your video and seeing they too can do this for their self-preservation.
I love what you said here! I’ve been through that whole process and now I’m here doing the best thing for myself. It’s a good feeling. I’m so grateful to watched and took the time to send me this encouraging message. Your so special. Thank you friend. Blessings to you 💚
How you doing man :). I’m about to be living in my car soon, I’m scared because this is new for me . I work in a hospital and thank goodness I’m going from housekeeping to nursing assistant. Ironically the hospital I work for doesn’t pay much but I know how to save money. I’m taking a class right now I’m trying to get into nursing school. Its a challenge but I’m determined to better myself and become an RN.
Hey Mario. Do it I promise you everything will improve. Your money will stack high and you’ll see the world through a complete new lens. I was forced to go live in my car to escape my abusive EX and also because I was not mentally healthy. I couldn’t maintain a job at time because of my depression. You’ll be fine trust me and you’ll get the money to pay for school because you won’t be wasting it on rent. Good luck let me know if I can help ya out.
Take advantage of programs where the hospital will pay for school if available…even if you have stay for 2 years after graduation. Stay the course!! It’s not over unless you quit.
Well said self care is very important, especially in the time that we are living, is not selfish to block out the things that going on in the world, it’s actually necessary for you peace of mind. Take care of yourself, 🙏🏾 btw your skin looks very healthy and hydrated . Stay safe out there.
So happy to see more black people trying this lifestyle. Where are you located and how are you adjusting so far? Thank you for watching and blessing my journey. Sending you a ton of love and protection along your way also.
Hey dear one. Thank you for sending me love all the way from our motherland. And yes friend living in your car is going to change your life in so many ways. I can’t wait to hear some updates. Sending you a ton of love back
Try sleeping in the front seat reclined almost all the way back. It is completely comfortable and you have all the extra room. I use 3 pillows , one on each side and one behind my head. It's like being in the arms of the michelin man.
In May this year (2022) would be 2yrs since I live in my SUV here Midwest. This winter is/was a rough one so I managed by taking assignments that paid for hotels usually I pocket the money otherwise. But, this is the best decision, I save money and it's freeing. I work stupid long hours and lots of it so it finally hit me to let go of my apartment and I saved so much money!! Oddly enough I get THEE best sleep in my SUV!!🤷🏾♀️
Yessss! I love it! So smart freaking brilliant dear one! I get the best sleep too because I’m not worried about making ends meet each month. Sleep tight and stay warm. Blessings queen!
I am doing this soon. I will be transferring colleges, so I will be moving out from my parents house and rent is crazy expensive. I have enough saved up to live 2 yrs on the road without worrying about finances. I will leave my car to my dad since it's easy to drive, and will take the suburban. I was planning on buying a van, but the truck is about the same size, and its just been sitting in the driveway for years, so I figured I would just put it to use. I am currently finishing the floor, I should be done converting it in the next two weeks.
Nice. Sounds like a wonderful plan to me. Well give me update when you can. I get so happy every time I hear someone say they are moving into there car. Celebration lol. I hope your enjoying the free living and adjusting well.
@@FoodTrucksForDummies My life plan kind of changed in these last 4 months. I was planning on transferring colleges, but I kind of think it isn't worth going into debt for. I graduate with an associates in business this may, so I'm kind of just living day by day waiting for that day to come since I'm not taking classes rn. I did take my first trip 2 months ago for about 6 days, which helped me decide what I needed to change in my layout. My dad also has a heart surgery coming up on the 3rd of March, so I am just sticking around and driving my parents where they need to go. Depending on how my dad's doing after, I may be able to leave, or I might have to stick around for longer and get a job to pay the bills since my dad was the one who worked and took care of everything, but he won't be able to do that for awhile. I wouldn't mind either option, but my family drives me crazy sometimes. I might just become a trucker and travel around delivering loads, but I need to wait till I'm 21 in order to do that. That's a long 6 months away, so for now my life is on a break, only time will tell what happens.
Sorry to hear about your dads heart surgery. That’s good your going with the flow still friend. That’s important and being appropriate either will get your fair. I almost did truck driving it’s good money. I’m happy I didn’t because this was before the pandemic. Congratulations on your associate degree. Don’t get into debt. I didn’t got to college and I don’t have those students debts like most people my age. I like your perspective still. Good mindset.
@@FoodTrucksForDummies Houston Tx. Everything is about energy I try to give off nothing but good positive vibes.... I know a good vibe when I see one and you're it!
My mother lives in Houston I’ve spent some time there. I wasn’t always this way I didn’t know whatever you put out you get back in return. I learned the hard way but hey I’m grateful to know I can be positive and receive more I’m return. I’m so thankful you said that and to have to join me on this journey 😁🤗🤗
@@FoodTrucksForDummies absolutely! I was not always this way either but so happy I'm apart of this tribe now. You look so healthy, I wish you nothing but greatness. Keep shining!
Title should be "Living OUT of my car" not in. The whole point to this way of living is to let the world outside be your living room. See beautiful places and enjoying the outdoors. Go different places. A stationary home causes laziness sitting around being in one location all the time. Not having a lot of room in a vehicle forces you to get out, move and explore. I actually think a car is better than an RV. Because even in an RV with all it's luxury you will do the same thing like a house plus so much more expensive in gas, up keep, things to go wrong, harder to find places to park etc. A vehicle to get around and sleep in period. Let nature and other places be your playground. When bad weather go to libraries, community centers, gym, malls, coffee shops. Keep moving, live simply. Less is more!!!
I'm doing this now & my air keeps running out of freon mygod I'm ready for fall & I Love summer None of my family is really wanting to help me Scared of what I may accomplish & I'm not under them doing their bidding lol I've took huge financial hit so I've got to get my finances right ✅🤪 N get on to my goals ❤ Just me & my cat Definitely need to invest in few things to make this experience more comfortable I've been doing this on/off since last winter but staying w family a week or so in between I also get hotels go campgrounds etc to break up the monotony went to beach this summer as well & have met some cool people doing the same thing All work all have money etc It can actually be addicting because you can come/go as u please 🌟🤩⭐🌠💫 Don't have to put up with Noone don't have bills to stress over etc I spent 4years struggling with bills of my house & was trapped under responsibility it killed my soul Now it's time to build my dreams Prayer affirmations exercise nature n diet a must 🙏🙌 Having a pet helps too ❤
Hey! I love your storytelling 🫶🏾 My cat hated cars so I rehomed her before I started this journey. I wish she was about that life lol. I saved a lot of money. I traveled and did what I wanted. It was fun but like any and everything it has it pros and cons. Yes but yourself some car life items to help make thing easy. Thanks for your comment have a great day.
...... love the Prius ✨....... good order/health choices ...... thanx for sharing 🙋♀️ ...... "Just one life will soon be past....... Only what's done for Christ will last." 💜✝🙏
Thank you for being here Terrance. There’s so many others in worse situations, that’s why I refuse to complain and remain. I know where my life is headed towards so temporary circumstances don’t define us. I’m glad your doing much better now right?
Hi new friend and thanks for the positive feedback. It’s good to know there’s value in my content. Our skin is the largest organ and yes what we eat helps. I also only drink water and make my own face soap, moisturizer etc. Just start with water and eating more fruit + veggies it will start to glow I promise you. My skin was trash when I was eating bad. I’m behind on editing I’ll be uploading tomorrow morning 💚
Hey SaucyVegan! Your reasons are so similar to mine; mental health circumstances, financial troubles, found cheapervliving, bought a Prius... Only I haven't bought a prius yet, that's my next step now that I've stabilised and found a work lifestyle (seasonal jobs) I can tolerate. Did you jump straight into fulltime Prius dwelling or did you take a few tryout trips first? I appreciate this video is old and it may not be what your doing now, cheers.
I was houseless and jobless at the time so I had no choice. I just learned through trail and error. I’m currently in affordable housing program apartments now in Alabama. But two years living in car I saved money and worked a lot less than before.
@@FoodTrucksForDummies what percentage do you have?? I would recommend at least 20%. Also reflectix/window shades that you could hang up way little to no light comes in from from traffic. The best part about reflectix is that if someone tries to shine a light in they won’t be able to see anything. Love your channel and you definitely gained in the subscriber!!!
Hey thanks for the feedback. All helpful I’m going back out next week and I really want to feel like I’m doing it legit this time. I don’t recall the tint % but it was legal. Okay I’m going to do some research on the reflectix shades. When I started it wasn’t planned properly, I have time and money now to make this place feel like me. I appreciate the sub! Where are you located?
Thanks for sharing your lifestyle with us, it's very inspirational. I'll be joining the car camping club next month although I have a bit more room with my SUV. Good luck with your spiritual journey. It seems like you've already made a number of wise choices. As Polonius says in "Hamlet" - “This above all: to thine own self be true And it must follow, as the night the day Thou canst not then be false to any man/Farewell, my blessing season this in thee!”
Yesss Hamlet was keeping it real. And so are we taking the leap of faith the change our financial circumstances. I had a small Kia Soul before I got my Prius. I think the space in an suv is great. I just really wanted to live in a Prius lol. Hey let me know how you adjust. It’s always fun the first few weeks learning to stay organized and get into a flow.
I was so new to this lifestyle and was scared I would be caught car camping. I have seen learned about the Prius design it’s build for this lifestyle. I’m more relaxed now lol.
Can't you run the temp controls q Since it's hybrid? That's the only reason I would get a Prius however I really like the hybrid siennas too but for now my CRV will have to work lol
Yes but I don’t like the heater function unless it’s below freezing. My sleeping bag is good for the moderate winter temps. And this was literally my first week living my car. I was so lost but I’ve found my flow.
How do you manage to actually drink a whole gallon of water everyday? Until recently ( brother staying with me now and he likes cranberry nuice), I only drink water. However, I cannot remember drinking close to not even a half a gallon of water a day. Anywho, catching up on your videos. See you in the next comment section lol.
So I stopped drinking a gallon a day. I was going to pee to much and I was over flushing my system. So now I’m about a half a gallon and that enough. I just try to listen to body to see what it needs. Cranberry juice isn’t bad if it’s all natural. Cranberries contains lots of water.
Hi Joanna! I park anywhere that feels safe. It could be Walmart lot, apartment complex, truck stops, 24 hour gyms etc. I hope this helps. Thanks for your comment have a great day.
Yeah come live in your car with me! Forester would be a perfect size. I’m working on an updated video of what I’ve learned so far. Where do you live now? How much money will you save by becoming rent free?
@@FoodTrucksForDummies I live in Sf! So rent prices are pretty high as you probably know, I am moving by the end of this month and have noticed a increase in this movement bcus of the state of the world, and im for it! I used to rent but im currently with the folks, I am doin this to save money and for character growth
I’m from SO Cali and will never pay those rent prices ever again. I’m not worried about money anymore. I feel so good because my money goes to me now. I’m sleeping and eating good. I’d advise you to do it the money you’ll save will change your life.
I sleep anywhere that feels safe. Sometimes even residential neighborhoods. I don’t like Walmart that’s much but have slept there and trucks stops but they are busy all night usually so it can be loud.
I appreciate your viewpoint. I grew up baptist family. I’m no longer religious. I know that may sound scary to you. But I’m Happy and that’s all that matters if you ask me. I was tired of being a miserable unhappy Christian lol. It wasn’t for me. My family still loves the church. I prefer a spiritual temple now. Thanks for sending your help.
@@FoodTrucksForDummies I just despise when people use clickbait/dishonest titles to try to catch views. You’re wack for that. Go ahead and have the last word.
I’m not a financial advisor. I’m just a regular person who lived in car for 2 years and made videos to try to inspire others. You could have watched my other videos for more information at least.
Living in my car was something I thought about doing for years, however I allowed fear to stop me. The ego mind would say things like your going to be judged and talked about. This is why I was depressed because I would listen to this voice and let it control my life. Reading, meditation and mindfulness helped me listen to my thoughts from a 3rd person and actually quiet the inner dialogue.

This has been something special for me. I’m so grateful I’ve been given this opportunity.

Thank you for sharing your journey. I am considering this move and I am concerned about how to stay warm or cool.
Of course, whatever it takes the help others. I’m currently down south where it’s about mid 50’s to 60’s and 40’s at night.
Iam happy you've found a way to relieve your stress. Be safe

Title should be "Living OUT of my car" not in. The whole point to this way of living is to let the world outside be your living room. See beautiful places and enjoying the outdoors. Go different places. A stationary home causes laziness sitting around being in one location all the time. Not having a lot of room in a vehicle forces you to get out, move and explore. I actually think a car is better than an RV. Because even in an RV with all it's luxury you will do the same thing like a house plus so much more expensive in gas, up keep, things to go wrong, harder to find places to park etc. A vehicle to get around and sleep in period. Let nature and other places be your playground. When bad weather go to libraries, community centers, gym, malls, coffee shops. Keep moving, live simply. Less is more!!!
So true. I think you’re right.
Stay Blessed King 💯
Thank you and same to you king David!
Rv is also a good choice
I’m sure but those are expensive right?
It’s crazy the message at the end is my same position I’m 31
That’s some solid words right!
I'm doing this now & my air keeps running out of freon mygod I'm ready for fall & I Love summer
None of my family is really wanting to help me
Scared of what I may accomplish & I'm not under them doing their bidding lol
I've took huge financial hit so I've got to get my finances right ✅🤪
N get on to my goals ❤
Just me & my cat
Definitely need to invest in few things to make this experience more comfortable
I've been doing this on/off since last winter but staying w family a week or so in between
I also get hotels go campgrounds etc to break up the monotony went to beach this summer as well & have met some cool people doing the same thing
All work all have money etc
It can actually be addicting because you can come/go as u please 🌟🤩⭐🌠💫
Don't have to put up with Noone don't have bills to stress over etc
I spent 4years struggling with bills of my house & was trapped under responsibility it killed my soul
Now it's time to build my dreams
Prayer affirmations exercise nature n diet a must 🙏🙌
Having a pet helps too ❤
Hey! I love your storytelling 🫶🏾
My cat hated cars so I rehomed her before I started this journey. I wish she was about that life lol. I saved a lot of money. I traveled and did what I wanted. It was fun but like any and everything it has it pros and cons. Yes but yourself some car life items to help make thing easy.
Thanks for your comment have a great day.
...... love the Prius ✨....... good order/health choices ...... thanx for sharing 🙋♀️ ...... "Just one life will soon be past....... Only what's done for Christ will last." 💜✝🙏
Thank you Carla 😁🥰
Rooting for you! I’ve been here before not by choice
Thank you for being here Terrance. There’s so many others in worse situations, that’s why I refuse to complain and remain. I know where my life is headed towards so temporary circumstances don’t define us.
I’m glad your doing much better now right?
Bro i live in my car, saving a massive amount of money
It’s a blessing in disguise. I saved so much money that I was able to start a food truck business! Keep looking for the treasures.
Much love to you
Thank you for blessing my journey. I’m sending you the same love in return.
🙏🏿❤️🙏🏿
💚💚💚
Infinite Blessings
Thank you for the light ☀️ sending you limitless abundance and blessings 💫
Cool..bro.. (Like your setup)..👍
Thank you I’m always finding ways to improve and make my life easier ✌🏾
Take care of yourself.
Always friend thanks you 🙏🏾
Sending big love!!!
Thank you for transmitting frequencies of love. What we send out, we get back💫
Hello. You are very smart.
Hello and thank you for saying that 🙏🏾
Good luck brother
I’m lucky and good things happen everyday in the car.
~Currently binging on your videos! (YOUR AURA SHINES SO BRIGHT) #CleanAura
Awww thank you so much. That mean so much to mean. And I’m sure you have a similar brightness because like attracts like 💫💫

Great..
Thank you 🙏🏾
1st time seeing you. Your skin is so smooth looking. Eating vegan helps? I love what you said at he end of this video. More videos please.
Hi new friend and thanks for the positive feedback. It’s good to know there’s value in my content. Our skin is the largest organ and yes what we eat helps. I also only drink water and make my own face soap, moisturizer etc. Just start with water and eating more fruit + veggies it will start to glow I promise you. My skin was trash when I was eating bad. I’m behind on editing I’ll be uploading tomorrow morning 💚
You have to do what you have to do. I hope things turn around for you and you move nowhere but up. I have videos on varsity overdrive.
Thank for for helping me.
Hey SaucyVegan! Your reasons are so similar to mine; mental health circumstances, financial troubles, found cheapervliving, bought a Prius... Only I haven't bought a prius yet, that's my next step now that I've stabilised and found a work lifestyle (seasonal jobs) I can tolerate.
Did you jump straight into fulltime Prius dwelling or did you take a few tryout trips first?
I appreciate this video is old and it may not be what your doing now, cheers.
I was houseless and jobless at the time so I had no choice. I just learned through trail and error. I’m currently in affordable housing program apartments now in Alabama. But two years living in car I saved money and worked a lot less than before.
awesome video bro
Hi Darrell thanks for letting me know what you think.
@@FoodTrucksForDummies word up
Jeremy from jersey just subscribed
Hey welcome jersey Jeremy. Thanks for being here.
i have only one question does he have a cameraman? i do not see how he can do it himself
I do it myself with my iPhone lol.
Brother you gotta get some tint! For privacy!!!!
Facts! I’m going to take it in next week and get that limo tint 😎
@@FoodTrucksForDummies what percentage do you have?? I would recommend at least 20%. Also reflectix/window shades that you could hang up way little to no light comes in from from traffic. The best part about reflectix is that if someone tries to shine a light in they won’t be able to see anything.
Love your channel and you definitely gained in the subscriber!!!
Hey thanks for the feedback. All helpful I’m going back out next week and I really want to feel like I’m doing it legit this time. I don’t recall the tint % but it was legal. Okay I’m going to do some research on the reflectix shades. When I started it wasn’t planned properly, I have time and money now to make this place feel like me. I appreciate the sub! Where are you located?
Thanks for sharing your lifestyle with us, it's very inspirational. I'll be joining the car camping club next month although I have a bit more room with my SUV. Good luck with your spiritual journey. It seems like you've already made a number of wise choices. As Polonius says in "Hamlet" - “This above all: to thine own self be true
And it must follow, as the night the day
Thou canst not then be false to any man/Farewell, my blessing season this in thee!”
Yesss Hamlet was keeping it real. And so are we taking the leap of faith the change our financial circumstances. I had a small Kia Soul before I got my Prius. I think the space in an suv is great. I just really wanted to live in a Prius lol. Hey let me know how you adjust. It’s always fun the first few weeks learning to stay organized and get into a flow.
🙏🏾
💫🙏🏾💫
Great quality what camera it was filmed?
iPhone
What iPhone ?
iPhone 13 Pro now. Before I was using iPhone Max.
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾💖
Thanks
❤️❤️❤️
Back at you dear warrior 💫💚💫
Why are you cold in a Prius?? cost about 1.12 to keep it in ready mode for 11 hrs.
I was so new to this lifestyle and was scared I would be caught car camping. I have seen learned about the Prius design it’s build for this lifestyle. I’m more relaxed now lol.
🙏🏿❤️🙏🏿
Hey Mary thank you
Can't you run the temp controls q
Since it's hybrid? That's the only reason I would get a Prius however I really like the hybrid siennas too but for now my CRV will have to work lol
Yes but I don’t like the heater function unless it’s below freezing. My sleeping bag is good for the moderate winter temps. And this was literally my first week living my car. I was so lost but I’ve found my flow.
@@FoodTrucksForDummies awesome 😊
Hey. How long does ur fresh food last in ur car w/ no fridge?? Be blessed✌
I would but small amounts of food and use the ice chest. Now I have a fridge.
How do you manage to actually drink a whole gallon of water everyday?
Until recently ( brother staying with me now and he likes cranberry nuice), I only drink water. However, I cannot remember drinking close to not even a half a gallon of water a day.
Anywho, catching up on your videos. See you in the next comment section lol.
So I stopped drinking a gallon a day. I was going to pee to much and I was over flushing my system. So now I’m about a half a gallon and that enough. I just try to listen to body to see what it needs. Cranberry juice isn’t bad if it’s all natural. Cranberries contains lots of water.
Where do you park to sleep?
Hi Joanna! I park anywhere that feels safe. It could be Walmart lot, apartment complex, truck stops, 24 hour gyms etc. I hope this helps. Thanks for your comment have a great day.
@@FoodTrucksForDummies I hope you're doing well🙏
Hey! Do you still do this? Im planning on doing the same thing in my Subaru Forester
Yeah come live in your car with me! Forester would be a perfect size. I’m working on an updated video of what I’ve learned so far. Where do you live now? How much money will you save by becoming rent free?
@@FoodTrucksForDummies I live in Sf! So rent prices are pretty high as you probably know, I am moving by the end of this month and have noticed a increase in this movement bcus of the state of the world, and im for it! I used to rent but im currently with the folks, I am doin this to save money and for character growth
@@FoodTrucksForDummies also shot you a sub, cant wait to see the vids man. Will watch to take notes so I can sustain the lifestyle
I’m from SO Cali and will never pay those rent prices ever again. I’m not worried about money anymore. I feel so good because my money goes to me now. I’m sleeping and eating good. I’d advise you to do it the money you’ll save will change your life.
Thanks for being here. And keep me posted on your decision.
Where do you park at night to sleep?
I sleep anywhere that feels safe. Sometimes even residential neighborhoods. I don’t like Walmart that’s much but have slept there and trucks stops but they are busy all night usually so it can be loud.
I just want to tell you Jesus can heal you, you don't need crystals. Ask God into your life you feel the difference. Safe travels in your car
I appreciate your viewpoint. I grew up baptist family. I’m no longer religious. I know that may sound scary to you. But I’m
Happy and that’s all that matters if you ask me. I was tired of being a miserable unhappy Christian lol. It wasn’t for me. My family still loves the church. I prefer a spiritual temple now. Thanks for sending your help.
what year is your car ?
2008 with 140k miles on it.
How much money you saved??
A lot more than I ever imagined.
Can I contact you
Yes just send me a DM on instagram: thetrojanprince
Please get tint brother!!!!
It’s the a legal tint. You think I should go limo?
Hi!
Love you 💚💚
Self focus is better than worrying about political crap
I never even think about anything like that anymore. I don’t acknowledge it whatsoever. Just living my life only.
Never talked about saving 100K. So I’m calling BS. Just showed his lame setup. Not subscribing. 👎🏼
I bet my lame set up is better than your setup.
@@FoodTrucksForDummies I just despise when people use clickbait/dishonest titles to try to catch views. You’re wack for that. Go ahead and have the last word.
I’m not a financial advisor. I’m just a regular person who lived in car for 2 years and made videos to try to inspire others. You could have watched my other videos for more information at least.
Man check out Katie Carney on YT great tips abt living in ur car & traveling too
I will Thank you Michelle!
