Joe built a home from a decaying old Avis box truck. Now he faces eviction from the landowner where the truck sits.
I have set up a gofundme for Joe

In a vacant lot in a small suburban town Joe found two old rusty box trucks. Over several years he made one of the trucks into a comfortable home for himself.
He built a facade for his house, put in some insulation, and found an old wood burning stove he uses for heat. Shortly before this video was filmed Joe received a notice to vacate, demanding that he leave the property he is living on.
A notice to vacate is the first step of the eviction process. Joe is awaiting a notice to appear in court, and hopes to be able to stay in the truck which he has turned into a home.
The town where he lives plans to build a public hiking trail in the area where Joe lives, so it is almost certain he will have to move. Hopefully he can stay through the winter, so he is not forced to live outside in the cold.
Joe has received a court date for mid November. It is uncertain how much time he will have at this point. I will update with new information as I have it.
