Left the Big City to Live in Military Travel Trailer

[@mahgirl516]

It’s actually a very well written and comprehensive book kzbin.infoUgkxhgbP-6hUnXu_QRaoHgLztgsI0YF3HqR0 . I wanted to pair this with an updated book on local codes to start planning a post-retirement dream shop. I think I have just about everything I need between the two. The extra plans available for purchase towards the end are priced almost as much as full home plans, not little sheds however.

[@barackmycat9448]

I`ve been at my job for 43 yrs.. I never had the courage to just take off like these people and now It`s so nice to watch others do this. It makes me feel like I am with them. Good Luck to all.......

MAN YOU GOT TO DO IT.

[@brianpetersen3429]

Amazing design solutions... loved the statement "wasted time is far worse than wasted money".

[@awarenessvillage]

Brian Petersen That statement really caught my attention, as well. I'm having a thought provoked moment right now...

[@rustybones99]

So inspiring! You have BY FAR the best channel like this on KZbin.

[@leahsmith8363]

this is amazing. Dylan, every single video of yours is beautifully done.

[@FloatingOrbProductions]

I hope you enjoyed this unique travel trailer. Mark and Nives are on their 4th year full time living out of it!

[@alteredstateskustom]

They seem like a great couple! Thanks for sharing their story

[@jonesesjourneys2299]

While it's too small for me personally, I really liked a lot of the build features they incorporated into it to make the most of such a small space. The exterior tables and shelving systems were really good and if I were doing a build right now, might have to steal that idea. Another great film Dylan. :cheers:

Dude, it's a dream home... for people who can drive, but still. Looks like home.

[@kcopen1974]

Awesome advice that they all give to motivate us to go for it. I know they didn't intend initially for camper to be permanent, but it worked out awesomely the way they fixed it! Really makes you be able to have the outdoors as your living room! Thanks for sharing!

[@tyclark8162]

You folks are doing everything right. Folks use to wonder how I survived living in my camper with my coal n gas forges welded on the back n tailgate. Shod have if you are wondering. No frig nor heat, but my dog Lady by my side. I saved allot in those days n worked hard n long. 25 yrs later my youngest son left for college n my wife left the day after. Never saw it coming nor did we fight. Cost me 600k n a broken heart, as I had flowers n reservations at her favorite prime rib restaurant. An thought we'd celebrate being empty nesters. Although she had other ideas, obviously. Before that took place, I became civilized n a job n kids. But still went on week long camping trips into the mountains of Wyoming. I'd watch movies most every night either outside by the fire or inside. An my dogs always followed n went 4wheeling n brookie fishing with me. Now, just a woreout ole paradog n 13 gkids. Live how you want cuz life takes different paths than most realize in life. An life is soooooo short n lonely. But I have gkids n they make it worth living.

[@tyclark8162]

Shod horses is what I meant, damn spell checker.

[@cenedraleaheldra5275]

Your build is epic. The best I have seen. Brilliant. Hidden bed. Everything is brilliant.

[@maryfield6920]

Lots of great idea. My husband I built one and lived in it in Steamboat Springs for a month. We are 62 and 74. Life is short your right. Something we never had time to do. So happy we did. Thanks for all the great ideas.

[@joshandthejam7806]

I'm moving into my converted ambulance in 2 weeks. I needed those words of encouragement at the end! Thank you very much. That build was amazing as well. I've been thinking about a pull behind and those were some great ideas,.

[@tinawindham6958]

Oh boy u might have hurt/sick people jumpin in your home! Best of luck!

[@jafolost]

That is one of the best humvee trailer conversions yet . Great job guys !

[@EarthStory]

I'm continually thrilled at the beautiful content you continue to provide the community. This gave me so many ideas for the rebuild of Voyager! Siked to have met you at REI. Infinite blessings Dylan :)

[@rebeccajane713]

This is, by FAR, the best build I've ever seen! Great job, guys! Keep living the dream!

[@hannah5012]

The magnetic iPad holder is such a smart idea!

[@archangel5627]

Your trailer is one of the simplest and coolest ones I’ve ever seen. I really like the Chuck Wagon style set up you have on both sides of the trailer. I was also very surprised by how much space you guys have in the sleeping quarters. I can tell a lot of thought and time went into the overall design of your trailer. Very cool indeed. I hope that the open road is good to both of you!

[@weaver7249]

What an amazing young couple - they certainly have their priorities straight. It dosen't hurt they are smart and beautiful..

[@andycockrum1212]

I'm so happy i found this channel. I'm a lover of everything outdoors and I've always wanted a lifestyle like this but didn't know how possible it was. This channel gives me a lot of motivation

[@leahveal9501]

Wow, I love this design! My first time seeing such a cool mobile living situation like this.

[@madeinmichigan6773]

The most perfect travel home I've seen and I was born traveling with my mom and now I'm 51 😊👌 So to me...this has everything perfectly thought out to live comfortably no matter where or the weather. Kudos to you both. Amazing!!!

[@sicchuckie]

Love the sky lights, the water collection and distribution, and everything else. Cool. I’m working on my military trailer.

[@smallfootprint2961]

Really creative spaces and ideas. So much, I have to watch it again. Seems to really suit their needs and it's amazing that they're able to have a business on the road. Very smart couple.

[@ChrisBenard]

You are literally the only person who makes ads entertaining. Great job on everything, as usual.

[@gwenwier7187]

Great, imaginative use of space! Outstanding.

[@donpage4275]

This is what I LOVE about camping / boondocking . There are literally a million ways to get it done and every one can be fulfilling

[@yoy58913]

Excellent work Dylan, this couple and their setup it's amazing.

[@craftlover9702]

Awesome!! Way to go.... If I could go back I would love to have done this....

[@sharonoldham4374]

Really like how you've designed kitchen. So handy and organized. Admire this couple I could have never done this. 👍👍

[@innergoof19]

Cool power packs! I also love the rainwater collection system.

[@AnnaC63]

The power packs are very over priced for normal camper use but for what they're doing, needing light weight portable heavy duty power banks for filming shoots they make sense. I agree, the rainwater system is great. More of us should incorporate it. Also I'm glad to see that wind equipment is getting cheaper. It's good to mix it with solar since major volcano eruptions in the past have caused mini ice ages due to debris blocking suns rays for decades. This happened in Northern Europe from a volcano eruption in Krakatau, Indonesia on the other side of the world just 600 years ago. If Yellowstone or rather when the Super volcano there erupts, people who survive the initial devastation which will be like several nuclear bombs will probably experience an actual ice age unless they live in tropical regions or subtropical ones. But even if there is a temporary ash cloud for a matter of weeks or months like there was after Mt St Helens or over Greenland a few years ago when flights were canceled indefinitely or just a long rainy spell, wind energy to supplement solar is a good idea.

[@sergiovalenti7255]

Great setup! I admire your creativity and love for nature.

[@stepsofashaman...4283]

Great ideas.. awesome trailer. Building a truck camper from scratch myself.. love the rain collection, and a shower. Really cool guys...

[@susanrunyon2483]

Great adventure life. Good for you two. Thanks. Safe and interesting travels

[@TrailRatSC]

WOW. I love the trailer so much more than vans (got's to have muh pick-up). Would go with a taller box but that's some fantastic craftsmanship Mark and Nives pulled off. Very nice!

[@johndoe-io8fh]

Thanks for your positive support!!!

[@TheDonmega70]

Great build and you guys are such an inspiration. Thank you for taking the time to make and share this.

[@lt9316]

love how you brought a hi level of ingredients for that camping experience. you can really improvise with all that variety of supplies in that kitchen. and you are right. waste of time is alot worse than waste of money. too be old an broken down and broke is the pits.

[@EveCane]

I like how your channel has compact videos, with only 10 to 15 minutes but cover all the good stuff that people need or interested to know about life in a van or van conversion. 😃👍

[@RonVanLife]

Love this travel trailer from the moment I saw it at Descend! Mark and Nives are amazingly generous people with a great outlook at living this lifestyle. Great content Dylan!

[@lanahallock1118]

Most fantastic set up I have ever seen! So neat, everything in containers or compartments. Wowzer!

[@celestialsense7728]

Thank you for sharing your lovely lifestyle with us and life is precious and unpredictable.

[@miamiller7585]

I love how positive you guys are and your right step on faith and just do it.We are bit suppose to live with fear.

[@melstill]

I think it's interesting how differently we all can define minimalist.

[@Qlicky]

What I find even more interesting is that all of these guys have very limited space, but 2 laptops, 2 DSLRs, a drone, 4-5 lenses, 2 phones, 6 batteries...etc is a must. And most of them make money by actually living in the van, its a job really.

[@joysheets2412]

Really nice setup. Wish I had done this when I was younger. Enjoy the adventure & what each day has to offer! 👍👍👍

[@reece7259]

You are so close to 300k you deserve to reach it!

[@shantolion1576]

Wow such a cool camper for such a low price! Amazing. I love that you guys work on the road do ur photography and still enjoy nature. Amazing lifestyle. Have fun

[@donwyates]

Very impressive trailer build. Dylan > great video production, as always.

[@tyrone8964]

omg great video your camera skills are on point

[@hammeredscout]

Sweet little camper. Cool bro attitude too. Much luck in all your adventures.

[@wild1adventures589]

Wow that lol camper is amazing! I have a small one I made to pull with my motorcycle!! Love it

[@gabrielquinn7017]

Huge fan of the show man. Been following since the beginning. Keep up the awesome production!

[@paulbaker3144]

That’s a interesting build. Nice work! I designed a somewhat similar trailer. I built a large rack over a small boat trailer. I had a 12’ RIB inflatable with outboard motor under the rack, roof top tent at one end of the rack and gear stored under a tilt up solar array at the front of the rack. A plywood table hinged down like yours with a propane cookstove bolted to it. Yours is much nicer. I never finished out mine out because I decided to use a short bus instead. Sold the rooftop tent. Wasn’t for me. But when I was younger I would have liked it. I still have the trailer with large rack and a fiberglass boat I’m turning into a electric boat. Problem is too much stuff. I have a cargo trailer full of tools, solar stuff, solar ovens, etc. Cannot tow two trailers lol. I make no claim to being a minimalist. This is a material planet and existence . When I’m a spirit I’ll be a minimalist. But sometimes it does seem like my stuff owns me. I’m striving to find a happy medium. Many have said it takes several campers to find the one you like. And it does change as one gets older. Happy trails

[@dhw14]

That was a really nice setup. Thanks for sharing.

[@travelmore9741]

So many of you want to try this life style. Don't try it until you have tried to live in your car for a week at least. I'm telling you. you can go nuts. personal experience.

[@mauricemaenhout5320]

True, it's not for everyone. I rather prefer to live somewhere close to nature instead of traveling all day and sleeping in a car. I like their idea a lot tho, seems fun if you want to go camping with your family for a day or a two.

[@dirtdog511]

Idk i lived in my car for about a 2 weeks and it really was hard. But once i built my tiny house is was soooo much better and easy to live. Now been in it for 5 months

[@smallfootprint2961]

It's not the same as living in a car, although, I see people who have pretty good set ups in a car.

[@urbannomadslife]

It's all about doing it intentionally vs reacting to life.

[@R2MintOptions]

" Don't try it until you have tried to live in your car for a week at least. I'm telling you. you can go nuts." Yep, people do not understand the logistics of this lifestyle, from finding places to park to visiting grocery stores very often to "wasting more time" doing daily stuffs: cooking, cleaning, showering, dressing, charging a laptop, going #1/#2, etc. Bottom line: calculate your surviving-to-living ratio. *Surviving is the activities done to support your living (e.g. 9-5 job, moving your van/trailer from place to place, getting "plumbing"/electricity, etc.) *Living: leisure time.

[@athiker7209]

I just stumbled on this video. Nice setup, and I like the natural wood finish. If I ever see this rig on the road, I'll honk or flash my lights. Thanks for sharing.

[@darkrose-k1h]

Good for you! It teaches us what we really ‘need’ to be happy.

[@floridaboy34601]

Dylan, you really do a great job. I wish, in some aspects, I was young again and as vibrant as you are. This set up is great. They got it going on!

[@RunFromHumanContacts]

Woo theyre colllecting rainwater on that space! Finally! Been waiting to see someome do that. Smart folks

[@MsShipreck]

[@MoPoppins]

Gawd, I love that kitchen...so beautiful and perfectly organized! Very well-planned and executed travel trailer. What more does one need?

[@daveywaves5325]

How about a small bathroom set up.

[@JACK32767]

WOW! You have a really unique rig.

[@rexandersen5346]

The gas bottle mounted very close to ignition source of hot water califont, not good if you have a gas leak.

[@void970t5]

If its propane its heavier than air and sinks away from the potential ignition source not to mention it's outdoors and the wind would carry the gas away.

[@verbersh]

I LOVE YOU SO MUCH!!! this is my favorite channel ever! So inspiring and full of amazing stories

[@ronpreece3429]

Loved your creativity and joy of life that the creator intended us to have. The only thing I would add is a Solo Ranger Fire Pit. Cheers !

[@DaDogg-rr7zc]

How do you disinfect the rain water collection pipes from bacteria? You have to disinfect it at least once a month so bacteria doesn’t grow

Probably when it's low, they can run something through it (like Pine Sol and or lavender/tea tree oil, and just run it though. Didn't show if it was possible to access the inside, but it probably is.

[@anujsharma3656]
