TRUCK HOUSE LIFE - Episode 1 - Why? & Truck House Tour

[@natoe1987]

watching this in 2024, nice to see how things have aged well and held up due to you knowing what weather you're up against.

[@justin52517]

Yeah I just seen a more recent video and I liked the set up so I decided to go to the beginning and watch.

[@traci635]

Same.....I love watching Tim travel in the winter. Alaska is so pretty in the winter

[@Richard-o5s1i]

4:33 I'm in Oregon I have a 1991 Toga( add up until yesterday) been living in it for 5 years and the police just impounded it saying that I didn't have a valid driver's license for Oregon. I am now homeless because of the police. I'm 73 years old and just had a massive heart attack. Doctors are telling me I only have a few more weeks to live. I have no family, I have no one. I'm destitute and now homeless.

[@baskervillebee6097]

The truck and camper are great, but I'm most impressed by the rolled up sleeves in the snow.

[@Dalehenrickson]

Discovered you a month ago. Enjoying binging all videos and watching the new ones same time progression how you do things. Keep living the good life.

[@chriswhite2151]

"What up, everybody...My name's Timmy!" I have been watching for years, now this pops up. Cool to see how this channel started!

[@rmeadows777]

Me too! I’ve been subbed for several years now so I thought I’d go back to the beginning and start to get caught up. Best of luck to you for 2025…

[@spencerdickinson4263]

You are an inspiration! Living life to the fullest! God's blessings to you!

[@mattculbertson3654]

Found your channel a few weeks ago, I’m just getting a chance to watch your older videos and learn more about you. I really admire the way you live life. I’m a little envious! You mentioned your dad coming up from the north GA mountains. I live in the northwest corner of SC near the border with GA/NC. I’ve spent a lot of time in the mountains of GA/NC/SC/TN. It’s a beautiful place to live, but Alaska is truly beautiful. Hopefully when the kids are grown, I’ll be able to visit Alaska. Love your videos man. Living the adventures along with you. Also love the construction videos. Awesome channel!!!

[@jacobmcvay123]

Became my favorite channel by far. Feel like this is every dudes dream that is into multiple things. I like to mountain bike, canoe, hunt, camp, hike, hockey, hit music festivals, etc. this is my dream. Living most active dudes dream.

[@JustLou71]

Just found you! Love, love, love you, the truck, and everything you just said. You truly are living my dream. Amazing! Can't wait to watch more of your life and adventures.

[@Purple_Majesty1]

Been watching you for almost a year. Your very first video popped up today, so I decided to watch it.

[@deborahschaub2925]

Absolutely love this !!! I also enjoy the fact you do NOT have a poverty mentality like so many people do. You did an amazing awesome job and I applaud you for getting out there and EXPERIENCING ENJOYING the life you’ve been given to do so.

[@TruckHouseLife]

Thanks! Yup, not poor do it cause I wanna:)

[@Down2Mob]

Love it man! Just love it! Your style is perfect, laid back but also straight to the point. Made me want to keep watching. I just drove through Alaska this past summer and skipped right past girdwood (I'm told that was stupid) anyways, I grew to 58k subs in 2019 and I honestly think you could kill it on youtube full time, and I'm only 1:31 into the video! Lol I'm sure you have TONS of stories to tell and I want to motivate you to keep making videos because I think you've got something here. I hope to run into ya on the road someday!!

[@TruckHouseLife]

Thanks man I appreciate! I'm thinking about getting into making videos, but all my equipment is super outdated. I made this video with my cell phone video recorder, a tiny microphone And used my old 2010 Macbook with iMovie... Seems like you have to spend 3 or $4000 to get a Laptop that can handle editing, final cut pro or Adobe premiere pro and a decent camera to put out a decent looking video these days... I might look into it if there's enough interest:) Cheers and swing on by if you're ever up this way again

[@Down2Mob]

@@TruckHouseLife I would say just keep making videos with what you have and add to it as you can. A drone is the best money you can spend to really up your game in my opinion but of course needs to be flown a lot. The quality on this video was great. If I could recommend a camera, I use a $600 Panasonic vxf1 camcorder that has been amazing for vlogging, shooting wildlife with a great zoom, etc. But shoot, your phone is good enough for a lot of stuff. Anyways I'd love to see more videos. I subscribed and tapped the bell for notifications so I'll try and comment as much as possible to keep the engagement flowing! I really think you've got something here and I will definitely have to meetup with ya when I'm up that way again. Hopefully next summer

[@cencoast_7.340]

Killer setup! I've got the same truck and with my girl and i breaking up I think it's time to get out of California! Definitely considering throwing a camper on my 7.3 diesel and trying that lifestyle. One question..I have no interest in KZbining so how do you bring in money? Im 36, and a carpenter/remodeler...

[@TruckHouseLife]

@@cencoast_7.340 I don't make a dime YouTubing, I teach drivers ed and work random environmental science gigs when I can. I'm based out of Alaska, so I'm not driving all around the country with no job or anything like that;^) but you should do it!

[@daveriley6310]

@@TruckHouseLife To start a KZbin channel I spent under $600 total for a Windows laptop (new, but I usually buy refurbished), a video camera with separate mic, a tripod, a video editing program (Filmora9) and a couple of royalty-free music subscriptions. Probably should have gone another hundred or two for a computer with a faster processor and more RAM.

[@louise7552]

It looked really good new. I must say, ive always loved the wood fire 🔥.

[@williamnefferson317]

The set up is dope Timmy!! Addicted to your channel!

[@jimm2442]

Looks like you are really having a great time and have a fantastic home on wheels. I say enjoy and keep the videos coming. I do want to point out that when you mention that Americans spend 37% of their income on housing that when you buy a home in most areas of this country, and when you sell later in life that you do stand to get all your money plus much more back. We lived in a home we purchased for 27 years and when we sold that home not only did we get all our money back but walked away with over 500k in profit that we used to buy our retirement home / detached shop on 10 acres in the Sierra Mountains. We do have an RV and travel frequently and love that but having a home to return to is also really nice. Just our experience, I completely respect yours and wish you all the best.

[@TruckHouseLife]

very true!

[@tkelly1087]

buying a house has become much harder these days. Thats why many people would rather go this route than waste $ on rent.

[@jimm2442]

@@tkelly1087 It was just as hard 40 years ago when interest rates were 11%. We (my wife and I) had to work over 2 weeks just to pay the mortgage payment. Rent at that time was 1/4 of the cost. i'm not saying that our decision was the right decision for everyone but it certainly was for us.

[@Akstergrind]

Oh wow, mate! I've just discovered your very first episode and LOOK how new and shiny the house and truck (seats) are!!!! 😅😅😅

I used to live in Girdwood back in 1981 or 82. I lived in a double wide mobile home right at the T getting on the main road. Used to be a Texaco gas station and a jewlery store right there as well. My Family ran the jewlery store. I miss Alaska so much it breaks my heart. Love your Channel.

I watched your latest videos first before I came across this one. It was nice to see how it all began. You do a very good job editing. Never a dull moment. Thanks for the videos!!!

[@shanebeaudrot777]

I've seen your other video on this truck build but this video is the best. You did a great job planning and building a very efficient living space. I don't know what you do for a living but you could surely build some custom truck homes for other people. They would get better with each build as you gain knowledge. Enjoy your adventure.

[@TruckHouseLife]

Thanks man, yup this one is for sale, if it sells I'll build another. Would like to make a business out of it one day.
