A COUPLE have converted a retired military truck into a purpose-built, one of a kind off-road mobile home. Kourtney and Trevor Smithson of Virginia, USA built their very own home on wheels using an original Stewart and Stevenson M1078 LMTV troop carrier which they picked up at a military auction. The conversion took just six weeks to complete and cost the couple around $37,000, including the purchase of the truck. Its owners named the ex-combat vehicle turned cosy mobile home, ‘Wazimu’, which translates as ‘crazy’.

This looks like the same truck goonzquad has
it is!
And it’s also the same line Goonzquad said “It runs like a Cadillac”
Fr bro I love goonzquad no homo
Its a little longer no homo
Exactly!
This dude is crazily awesome, admitting own problems even on the internet and knowing it was wrong and she stayed with him the whole time, awesome.
thanks for the support! You can see way more on our new youtube channel & keep up with how the off-roading tiny house life is going: WazimuLife
I definitely watched too many goonzquad videos when youtube is recommending this video to me
Oss No same hahah😂😂
$37K - now that's impressive. Ready built expedition vehicles are going for the high 100Ks to a million or more. The Sprinters are super popular but they're tiny inside, and they are in the 100K plus range. What you guys have done is simply amazing
Who is here because of GOONZQUAD?
Wazimu is a Swahili word for madness. Right?
Not me I haven't even heard of goonzquad
Wait before you say it this would be cool to have during a zombie apocalypses 🧟♂️ 👀🔥🔥🔥
Until some groups try to claim it from them.
Lol goon squad be stealing
Truth! Subscribe to see what we get into!
TH-cam recommendations are really on point

This ridiculous rides on the nature, exploring, make me feel so free!!! I mean, they are the exact definition of freedom.
Lovely to hear that it helped you through the alcohol challenges. Am happy for you now that you are living your simple happy life.
Sweet!!!! “How fast is your house?” I say those words so often when people are tailgating us. Lol... we would love to do a video with you two.
I love that :"How fast is your house ?"
Good for you. Great way to straighten yourself out and super great she stuck with you. Have a good life.
read a book and take a bath, legit combo xD.
Living the dream! How many people can say that? Not to many! You guys are amazing!
good on you mate for your sobriety and God Bless your Lady for hanging in there with you!
I love the analogy slow truck, fast house!
I love their f'ng STORY !
That is awesome and inspiring, absolutely love the couple, they're perfect for each other! And that truck is so cool
Wazimu is swahili for crazy hahah i was like "wait a minute" lol then saw it on his shirt and was like "hakuna matata".. for my fellow swahili speakers who get it

Hello folks, You're both authentic people making the world a better place. He had the nerves to admit and get up and she had the grit to stay and maintain. Yawl are champions! I'm interested in the "Build details" if your willing to share. Especially the connector from the cab to the house, the solar and battery compartment. The tow along is a fantastic garage. Lastly, For the bitter and hater-aide folk, Git with Jesus, He'll do you right and heal your issues. Realizing good folks are out there working on living life makes the heart smile. Thank you
You go guys!
Whose here because of the @Goonsquad
Goonzquad*
Dude !!!!!
I love those big ole military vehicles. I would like to make a camper out of one. They are old but inexpensive and with with low mileage, are they worth it, or is it trouble?
When this gets recommended to you, you're watching to much goonzquad! 😆👌🏻
Simply brilliant...👍
For me, that's the American dream. Sacrifice everything and build it yourself. Money cannot buy that kind of happiness.
That was a awesome video and mobile home
Beautiful
Love it. Congrats on sobering up.
TH-cam stalked me watching Goonzquad and recommended this......I like it
Just don't stalk me irl

Goonzquad just purchased the same vehicle. Hopefully they spotted this video for tips and ideas.
I'm sure they did. They are good kids and are good role models.
They literally stole the idea from here🤦♂️
@@Andino. How do you know? So what, there are quit a few of the very same vehicles out there that people have done this very same thing, again, so what?
HELLO, CAN ANYONE TELL ME? DID THEY EXTEND THE TRUCK BODY? HOW? HOW IS THAT DONE AND WHERE WOULD I GO TO GET THAT DONE? THANKS

Dang son!
Am from Nairobi,Kenya but working in Doha,Qatar.
The name "wazimu" in Swahili which is my language literally means 'Crazy' or rather 'abnormal'.
So how exactly do they get paid if they said they quit their jobs? Where does the money come from for groceries and such?
gas and food is the least of one's problems once on eliminates rent / property taxes ,home insurance ect.
Genial saludos cordiales desde Patagonia Chile.. Mis amigos me pueden ayudar con información..
Im glad he mentioned getting sober this county has a real drug and alcohol problem and more ppl could learn from this.
You purchased this truck is Daytona Florida ?
Rad rigg!!
Just passed y’all in Pennsylvania
This is pretty amazing...how did you insure this vehicle? We are interested in using this while we travel and work across the US. We appreciate any information to get us started.
thanks for the support! If you reach out on instagram trev can tell you all about our insurance. & You can see way more on our new youtube channel & keep up with how the off-roading tiny house life is going: WazimuLife
