Army truck turned Tiny Home w/ bathroom, elevator bed & more

Apollo takes us through his incredible off-grid Tiny Home, which he built himself out of a converted army truck / military vehicle. He lives in this off-road capable rig full time so that he can live near his work sites - where he clears and renovates properties.

Who else was waiting for him to ride the bike down that narrow ramp and was disappointed when he used the wench? 😁

With the rising cost of home 🏘️ ownership and mortgage and rent, mobile homes are now in trend. What's more, these new small home owners are getting more and more creative.

[@Civiliansoldier762]

At $100k plus another $45k into the truck This thing costs as much as a average single family home in the Midwest and you’re not going to get a 15-30yr mortgage on it.

[@wvover8079]

@@Cynthia-fx4we ok, move then? nobody cares that you chose to harm yourself financially.

[@straightarrow372]

Yay! A real office chair! This is the first build I've seen that has a real office chair. I love this layout. It's very stark -- but it works -- and feels very sane & practical. However, if I had my wiring under my desk like that, with no protection, I would be snagging my feet on the wires all the time & likely pulling them out.

[@opk3148jj]

I agree. The whole thing works, but that was the one thing I didn't love about this build was the under-the-desk wiring. I've seen a couple others where people hid/plant them inside their thick shower/back walls haha.

[@6x6Tortuga]

Very cool. Looking forward with what you do with your 6x6

[@Gamekid169]

Would love to see him do videos of his build for the 6x6.

[@bonniejackson1321]

Awesome tiny home and an engaging personality to boot.

[@arliewonton]

Military truck and chain saw at the ready, reminds me of the original Doom guy. ❤it.

[@dutchsmith7375]

The reason your tires are not lasting long is because if you go over 55 MPH on that tire (for the S&S military trucks) they will heat up and slowly melt. Keep it around 50 and the tires will last a shockingly long time, like years long.

[@justwastingmytime852]

I cant stop looking at his BULGE!! Damn!!!

[@blackgirlcouchreviews]

I knew someone in the comments had to mention it and the thickness of the rear. Before one shakes he totally was advertising himself as much as the truck

[@briandrake9467]

Gorgeous, I really like the truck too.

[@sonicnyc]

lol - I see what you did there! 😉

[@JS-vd6bx]

Apollo is CUTIE! ❤❤❤

[@sahar2629]

The one thing I own that I love the most is my small standing desk and office chair, and always thought I 'd like to have it in my future tiny home. It's amazing to see you have it in your tiny mobile home. You could even add some cushions on top of the water tanks in the back under the bed to make a tiny couch. Very nice practical build

[@tamihixx9285]

I'm chanting for a man like this in my life.😍

[@sunnivab302]

Same!

[@suzannecranford6819]

This was one of the best and most interesting videos. I love this build. It's everything one would need to be comfortably practical. Thanks for the tour.

[@digby_dooright]

I get my learners permit in a year. I wonder if he would let me drive it?

[@jenniferlawrence9473]

I think he would. He seems like a nice guy with a beautiful smile. @@digby_dooright

[@m5a1stuart83]

He is rich for sure

[@krissmgvlogs]

Love it. Even the tool box as a chest of drawers. Awesome!

[@kateabercrombie3902]

Awesome Loved the truck, the guy, the bike, all of it.

[@noonehere1793]

The tool box dresser is brilliant!

[@kevinlarabee-qs4yo]

Wow thats absolutely well planned out. Pretty convenient all way down to the motorcycle.

[@katherinebuterbaugh8470]

Very creative and nice has what you need for one person. You did a great job converting it.

[@rrahll]

awesome truck setup, I like it!

[@robertwhite9898]

Wow wow ! This is amazing & can go anywhere without no issues! This one is one of favorite ones ! Great build !

[@SS-cp1gb]

I used this same exact type truck for 6 years in the military as a work shop when deployed and in the field. Oh the memories.

[@jeffreypinder9398]

Great setup in that rig.

[@bonitahobbs2374]

SMART & Magnificent idea❗❗ Looks very safe!!

[@jobethsobrepena2996]

Very handsome smart man with amaxing van injoy watching

[@karthikshetty2206]

That is beautiful minimalist design

[@anserkhan9430]

Looks amazing!!!

[@Mbonner73]

I drive one of these in the army, its called a LMTV (light medium tactical vehicle) thrse trucks are a work horse, you can take them about anywhere, you can deflate this tires from inside the cab to either drive across sand or lower the height of the truck. I absolutely love these trucks, there is no terrain these trucks cant handle 🇺🇲

[@michaelcrowley9008]

😅wishing I could buy the old one off them when they get the upgraded version set up! This is so well done!

[@piplup10203854]

Alright, this is the life I was looking for, finally! Something like this would be the life for me.

[@Cyberqueen-AI]

He's a real nomad!

[@jbraywc]

You got some great ideas there thank you You're helping me it with my build I will be starting in about a month. It's time to declutter my life. Love the shower idea love love love.

[@Schladduppy]

I built part of that truck on the line in Sealy Texas in 1998. Good to see you making good use!

[@JockeSelin]

Very well kitted out!

[@sonicnyc]

Would love to see the buildout for this truck (or the next one!!).

[@zacharymesimer9441]

Its a nice setup, i would only recommend maybe a coupe tweaks just to make it a little easier to live in. If you're a tosser when you sleep, youre likely to accidentally kick the monitor and break it; maybe find a way to keep the monitors below the mattress and out of the way? And maybe make a basic drain pump system that is built into the shower so you can just flip a switch and it pumps to the grey tank. Minor things that would go a long way in the long run, thats all.

[@cesium419]

That's pretty cool. And Ikea is pretty convenient too

[@Nancy-mz2eh]

Thanks for your unique and interesting videos.

[@andrewturner67]

My wife and I tried this for a year in an RV. It was not too bad but it definitely is not for us as a married couple. If I was single again, I most definitely would do this but probably with a motor home.

[@sigmiami]

this is awesome- wish I was this creative, very very cool

[@pamtilsonrodgers2825]

Love it! What an awesome build.

[@lindysmith13]

that is very impressive

[@meridethhendry5733]

WoW! Very cool!

[@Coop1338]

I literally just found this truck for sale today...auction is at $10300 on 10/5/2023. I just googled Stewart and Stevenson for sale and it came up. Listing says there is only 17,000 miles on it so doesn't seem like this guy traveled that much in it. I would put the link but I don't know if KZbin would delete the comment thinking it's spam.

[@MrQdcooper]

Link please !

Glad your safe Apollo ;) 12:08

[@bitworkx6028]

That would be nice for a couple of weeks out of the year visiting folks across the country. Plus fishing and camping would be grand as well.

[@teresameyer8940]

Loved this!

[@Soulessdeeds]

Friendly tip to anyone thinking of buying one of these. The flat sides of the truck makes a great projector screen for watching movies or playing console games. I took a projector with me through all 3 of my Iraq tours. And some guys saw myself and the other mechanics playing Rock Band using my projector and Xbox. And shooting it onto the side of a LMTV truck. Next thing I hear they have one of their own and took it with them as they traveled from FOB to FOB.

[@apollogarin]

Love that.

[@aletheasmith1013]

Nice real nice 👍🏽

[@opk3148jj]

Good build! I appreciate a guy who's all about utility rather than just aesthetic. Although, I didn't initially love the amount of space the motorbike took up, I dig his unique solution with the bed lift. Saves a lot of space even if he just put it in to watch movies on his PC screen haha. Wonder how hard it is to fix the lift on his own though if it goes out.

[@gensafaris8239]

Thanks for the lift bed video... it seemed the motor was very quiet, any chance you might share where that was sourced please?

[@mikealbrecht3990]

Cool build. These used to be called RVs.

[@silv612]

dude, I like you attitude of keeping it simple. The enterior got potential for improvements to make it more cosy. Also you always have to take the bike out when you want to go to sleep?

[@angeladawn805]

I'm just guessing here... But I think that it looks like a whole lot of fun 😃

[@ryefry]

I definitely want a 6x6, the bed is 10 feet long, I'd put a chopped down shipping container on it.

[@roceye]

I have a M1083- 6x6 means....more tires....and even less mileage 🙂

[@ryefry]

@@roceye a vehicle that big, you're not really worried about MPG

I wish I had money to do such activities. Very fun. Very functional

Sure looks terrific , not sure there couldn’t be simple improvements to plumbing

I would like to know everything about that shower set up . This what I need for my build/ tiny. Please respond as this would really help me to complete my build . Thank you

[@Kemmergem]

I love it, except for one thing I wish you could make one of those a walk-through from the cab

[@Whatta33]

You need seats like in a commercial truck. Air ride seat for comfortable ride

[@bobbywonder4574]

you should extend the frame

[@VictoriaFerland-gu7rb]

Nice rig. 🛻

It's nice that he admits his MPG since most owners of this class won't. jejeje

I would paint it camouflage

[@Retired88M]

I’d like to find one of the M-800 series long frame office trucks that the Army had For one thing the tires weren’t as big as his and you could swap out the tube type split ring military wheels for tubeless either steel or aluminum rims to hold 1100r 20 ‘s in either a luggers or highway treads and like this guy regear the differentials

[@jennglow4647]

Cool 😮

[@dereklucero5785]

There are a shit ton of military vehicles that would easily be capable of tiny homes, though the gas consumption and size might be factors. I could see myself with a tiny home in a deuce and a half, or a 5ton for relatively cheap.

[@carolwheeler9979]

I love this! It is such a guy thing!! It is just wonderful because it is so right for him and his needs and this is what tiny homes are about, suiting your individual needs!! I really admire this cool build!!
