I lived in my car for four months while transitioning and top 4 must have are 1. Gym membership 2. Plenty of data plan 3. Window tint 4. Mailing address

I have to say, I never realized how common it is for people to live in their cars until I started doing it myself. I never noticed it before because people were good at being stealth. Now that I sleep on public lots and pay attention to my surroundings, I see invisible people everywhere 😆
-
I would suggest you get a battery powered carbon monoxide detector. Also a heated blanket will drastically cut down on your heating power usage. Remember - unless you have a dog, you only need to heat yourself, not the entire vehicle.
-
Thank you, living full-time has opened our eyes to how many people live out of the cars! Rents are insanely high!
-
I've been living "van life" for over 8 years now. A way to sleep comfortably and a pea bottle is the minimal i can have and stay sane.
-
My 2024 plan as I can’t afford rent and bills 😂😂

Suggestion: get a USB AA & AAA battery charger, then load it with EverReady rechargeable batts and stop buying batts for your lights, etc. Also, you can take your smaller batt back up into the library with you when you use the computer, and you can get a free charge on it. There are other spots to do this, as well

You should get a cb radio to get traffic alerts. And maybe handheld police scanner for emergency alerts to. I have some of the stuff you recommended. Ive driven semi truck for 17 years. We can relate to you from being on the road alot. Dont forget little 12 volt air compressor . You probably got first aid kit. Tools, duct tape, extra coolant, oil, washer fluid. Most truckers stock up on all fluids and fuses .

Congratulations on getting straight to the point-😮-a YoutTube video rarity. A suggestion for a sleeping platform: 3 or 4 heavy duty 27 gallon totes as the platform with a cot mattress on top which makes the best use of available space. Keep your vehicle as stealthy as possible with it not looking like a truck on the Beverly Hillbillies. My goal for my van is for it to look like a soccer mom van. But too much stuff hanging off your vehicle is not a good look.

Good video, an important item I always have in my backpack and in my car to keep me warm is a $3 emergency blanket. They're flimsy they make a lot of noise, but they can keep you very warm if tucked slightly under your sleeping bag and around you. They do cause some condensation but not enough to get you wet, I used one at 8200 ft in October in a tent. I had to unzip my sleeping bag I got so warm and before I used it I was freezing I couldn't sleep.

I really enjoyed your video. It was very helpful. Loved how you took your time and explained each item without racing through it and talking so fast you couldn't understand

Nice moves with the storage, especially. I went 500 days of Canadian winter-twice-in a chevy HHR with a tip for your electrical. Instead of LED lighting all the time, have an old school 100W .light bulb and a cast Iron frying pan. Not as efficient as LED but with your air circulation, thr light bulb in the fry pan will keep you warm for nothing, practically, with the up side of having a warm fry pan in the coffee for breakfast. The cast iron protects the bulb nicely.
-
Good info. I would add physical maps/road atlas. You may not always have cell service. Did you mention water? Probably.
-
Well organized and presented.
-
I'm blown away by the amount of knowledge you have! You definitely taught me a thing or two. Keep up the great work! 👏
-
Excellent ideas and advice. I don't live in my car but practically do cause have two jobs. Sometimes even nap or change between jobs out of my car when I don't have time to go home. These ideas will come in handy. Thanks for sharing
-
Dang son...you covered all the bases. You managed to pack three years of my vanlife experience into one well organized video. 👍👍👍 One suggestion for the screen (roll of screen from Home Depot and small round magnets from Amazon to attach the cut screen to the frame of the windows).
-
You don't understand how this is needed. I'v been looking for something like this. I'm thinking about doing van life. Please keep these coming.

I also got the WeatherTech window covers and am not disappointed because they fit all ten windows really well, since they make them specifically for the model of car. However, I did end up covering the black side with felt because I was resting in my car once and I heard a conversation outside to the effect they were wondering if my windshield was broken, but realized that the cracks were from the creases in the plastic on the black side of the window covers. Anything that draws attention like that is not so stealthy (I wanted the windows to look like they were just very tinted so much that they were black).
