Alan lives super cheap in a DIY tiny house he built himself. To sustain his minimalist lifestyle, he combines his social security with extra income from DoorDash. Alan camps on BLM land in an LTVA ( Long Term Visitor Area) for 7 months each year, costing only $25 a month. He pulls his tiny house with a Ford F-150, allowing him to explore new places while keeping expenses low. Learn how you can embrace a minimalist lifestyle and live affordably on the road.
Live REALLY CHEAP by staying in a LTVA with cheap rent! A multi month permit is good at any BLM LTVA for 7 MONTHS (Oct-April in Quartzsite) is ONLY $180, which breaks down to just $25.71 PER MONTH! You can stay or move between LTVA's as you wish with this pass.

EVs and solar technology simply are not advanced enough yet. Most residential homes’ electric capacity cannot handle charging a car. That’s for upper income folks who can afford to have their household electrical upgraded or live in a new ‘smart’ house and have a charging station installed. He’d need an entire trailer devoted to hauling solar panels and a fossil fuel genny backup just to charge the truck, and have to stop and charge every hundred miles or so, towing all of that.

@mondavou9408
@mondavou9408 Месяц назад
I'm no engineer but here is my quick calculation: Ford Lighting 98kWh battery. 98kWh x 1,000 = 98,000 Watt hours. Your solar array is 800 watts x 7 max solar hours in the desert southwest = 5,600 max watt hours generated per day. 98,000 (battery) divided by 5,600 (daily generation) = 18 days to charge your Lighting for a towing range of about 100 miles. If you want to fully charge it each day, take your battery's watt hours (98,000) divided by your solar hours (7) = required size of your solar system (14kWh) aka 14,000 watts on your roof. With your current battery's 200 Amp Hours (AH) x 3 batteries @ 12v= 7,200 watt hours, you can't full charge your completely depleted battery bank each day because you can only generate 5,600 watt hours per day. Rule of thumb, your daily consumption should be 1/3 of your battery bank. In your case, that would be 2,400 watts or 200AH or 2.4 kWh per day. A typical sticks and bricks house consumes 25kWh to 75kWh per day.

I had to look it up as well....actually you can't just plug in the Lightning into a solar grid w some controllers, regardless of how long you charge it for or how many panels you got....There are plenty of components that are required (according to people trying to do this diy)....They estimate a cost of $50-100ks, just for the components.....The verdict? A NOT FINANCIALLY FEASIBLE PROJECT (currently)

The guy's not going to use all the battery power EVERY DAY. While I agree a solar PU is not a practical tow vehicle for any long distance travel, you could charge one for daily commutes on 5k of panels if you have sufficient battery storage and use a 220 split phase pure sine wave inverter. He'd probably only use 10-20k out of the PU batteries on an average day. It's the cross country travel that makes EV pickups unreasonable. And the added weight of an adequate system would be prohibitive.

I think the ss self employment tax is 13%. You can't get out of that one or the Medicare taxes. You can, however, deduct for business expenses, so there's that. I had four children in the home when I was last self employed, so other than the ss and medicare tax, I never owed the IRS.

​@@jamesrodriquez2863if you do gig work like doordash, you are considered sole proprietor and so you will deduct your business expenses with the mileage exemption being the most prominent one. Then after all expenses on your schedule c, you will have your profit that is then what you will pay taxes on. If you do it for an every day job, you will be more likely making enough to even pay taxes. In my case last year with doing ubereats seldomly as a side gig to supplement my W2 income, after the expense deductions I was basically at a loss on paper from doing it part time ($4k revenue). Many offers don't even pay enough to cover the mileage exemption from the IRS unless the customer tips decent.

Love your little home on wheels. You fixed it so nice and homy. Brings back old memories. Back in the late 60s, my husband and I built a small cabin on wheels. Not quite as long as yours,, we used the fram for an old travel trailer. Had no BR, batteries. solo power etc. But we towed it around to parks, and camped in open spaces with three small children all Summer long. The two oldest slept in the station wagon, the youngest with us. We were tearing down a small house, while building a home. So we took a section of the kitchen counter with drawers and cupboards below, from the old place, and installed in up front. Then built around it. We had so much fun with that little 'cabin'.

Nice video and God bless you. You are a sincere man but at this point in time, electric pickup trucks are not a sincere option. My son enjoys his Tesla much, a light car that he can charge with 12kW of power demand from the grid. The energy density required to move a heavy load down the road does not exist with what is available with 2024 batteries and solar panels. I could do the math (43 years power calculations) however the answer is going to be "acres of solar cells" and "more battery capacity than what could be carried in an F150". The whole magilla will not pay off before it ages out. Gas is so efficient by comparison

what a kind wonderful man is your friend Alan! I love the tiny house, especially how Alan decorated it. It seems he managed to put in so many items that have meaning to him, like books and personal items, photos. Makes it look really warm and cosy. Very very nice! Hope you can enjoy this life for many more years, Alan! Thanks for sharing Alan and Bob - greetz JAson

What an amazing tiny house. Thanks Bob for showing us these living situations as sn alternatives to ridiculous rising rents and inflation.

With 800 watts of solar, you can go full electric with a toaster oven and two-burner cooktop. This way makes it easy to replace low-cost parts (Walmart, Amazon, Ebay, etc...) and they're portable, meaning they can be rearranged on the counter and put in storage If needed.

That tiny home is beautiful. It's organized and has just enough mementos of the prior time with Nancy. It has good energy and is fully functional. The dog is happy too.

I lost my husband 8 years ago, and my adopted family, my best friend, isn't doing well. I have been considering a tiny home or Ford Transit with short wheel base for my permanent living arrangement when he passes. But these interviews you do for us Bob really give us ideas for an alternative living situation. I'm getting yancy and want to go on the road. Just a little while longer.

That is a fantastic little tiny house! He is a very smart man for doing what he has done to make his life more comfortable, and he can still do things and enjoy little things that people take for granted. The only thing that I disagree with is going to Dairy Queen last time. I went to Dairy Queen and got a peanut buster parfait and a small blizzard, it was $14! I could buy a Half gallon of ice cream, and it would only cost six or seven dollars on sale. And I could have multiple servings.

I love this build. But I wish that you would ask people when you do these build interviews, especially when it is something unusual like this, about how they got insurance and got the vehicle registered. (And what state they are in). Progressive, one of the only insurance companies that will insure conversion vehicles, doesn't allow you to have a woodstove. (At least currently here in CT)

Call me crazy, but I rather doubt he told anyone he had a wood stove. The trailer was registered after he purchased it. It's probably registered as a utility trailer.

I have to admit that I was happier when I didn’t care what people thought and I wasn’t trying to keep up with the Jones. My car was reliable and easy to maintain. My apartment was one bedroom,1bath. Kitchen,dining room and living room were all in one.

What an incredible build, and talented gentleman. Sir, you can probably replace that desktop with some interesting material or product obtained online (I look at Amazon and Temu, and then try to be locally, if possible. But GREAT ideas there.) Honestly, your setup is perfect, as is. I'm right behind you, metaphorically, on the road. It's taking me some trial-and-error, but I'm learning a LOT. I'm super thankful for this channel. It's truly been a life-changer for me too. I learn SO MUCH from every video, and each person's saga. So thank you both! Much appreciation for these videos.
