    As someone who lived full time in a fifth wheel voluntarily with my family, living mobile in a tiny home, RV, or camper van can be pretty awesome. However, many of these people aren’t doing it by choice and that should never be the case.

        I did it for a few weeks when I was in college, waiting for my first cheque from my p/t job … in a '69 VW Beetle, in a cold Canadian winter.

        It sucked.

      Having a tiny camper that isn’t going to break, a decent supply of food and money, and a YouTube channel all about your “Van Life” is a lot different than sleeping in the back of your car because you have no way to escape America.

        Yeah that’s basically what I said. Doing it by choice versus not by choice is a big difference.

          Well I got what you said, guess they’re just a bit grumpy today.

      I lived in a Geo Metro for about a month, then it got towed and I was sleeping on the street. Having a car to go into is so far above and beyond have no place at all to go into.

      I’ve done it for over twenty years. It’s feasible, but sometimes not ideal.
