    This couple is crazy! I have a Honda element that I often sleep in. I couldn't imagine 2 people.

    My wife and I did this with our minivan but after 1 night of super hot and humid night in Nebraska, I decided yea you can do this but its not as much fun as prople think. Now we have a campervan with a generator, heater and AC, even a toilet but its still now where as comfortable as our house. Good luck

    I had a 2006 Element I drove for 10 years. It was perfect for mountain biking, but to live in? Only as a last resort. I like my house, it's paid for so why sacrifice?

    that rear hatch inside opener you installed allows for easy access for potential criminals should you ever leave windows cracked. All you need is a pole with some sort of hook , nail or catch on the end.
    Im contemplating some other design.

    Someday I'll get my eating under control and I can live in my Element like these two. You'd think it'd be doable for just one person, but not when that person is stuffing red meat and pasta into their face all day. I love my Element but I don't have a work remote job. I have to be in an urban center for work. I'm sure I *could* figure out where I can setup propane camping cookers without getting chased out but it feels like it would make more sense to just eat better

      Eating well on the road has been my biggest hurdle, and I’m still trying to find remote employment instead of working multiple part time jobs- I do not have it figured out yet! So you are totally not alone in these concerns. But I believe with time it’ll all come together 🤞

    While I admire the ingenuity of people that do car/van/truck living, I could not stand to have to be digging and rooting all day, for everything I needed at the moment. If finances say that it has to be that way, then hopefully it is only temporary. These two are very young and very thin, seem like very laid back folks, so it seems to be working.....for now.
