My name is Chrome i have been living in y cargo van for 6 years now. I started this lifestyle BROKE and IN DEBT and after 11 months of living the van life i cleared my debt and started to put my life back together and build for a better future. I have turned my original van into a badass camper van that is lifted with all the toys. Over the years i went from being broke and stealth camping in the city and sleeping at walmarts... to now, living fulltime in a jacked up van and driving deep off-grid into the backcountry and living life in the dirt. WOW LIFE HAS CHANGED.
I now have a shop space to keep me busy through the winters here on Canada's westcoast. Went from Van Life to VAN LIFE + SHOP LIFE !!!!!! Come join this crazy van life journey of mine. HIT SUBSCRIBE, trust me its gonna be a WILD RIDE.

Duuuuuuude, not THAT click baitie, overused, video title!!

@VANCITYVANLIFE 14 дней назад

Is it Clickbait or is it just the truth? The way I’m living my van life ISN’T WORKING ANYMORE… instead of backcountry in the summer I may have to flip and do pavement in the summer. The way I’ve been doing things just isn’t working. And VAN LIFE JUST GOT WORSE… yesterday was a that Van Life Ontario made van life get worse. I don’t see any Clickbait in that I see that title of speaking the truth. It’s how you personally read it that makes it click bait. Look at it how I look at it I just told you guys the truth in a nutshell. Hahahaha Everything is in your perception on how you read it and how you personally feel. The definition of Clickbait is::::CLICKBAIT on the internet) content whose main purpose is to attract attention and encourage visitors to click on a link to a particular web page. That means every single RU-vidr‘s job is to Clickbait every single video upload with an intriguing enough of a title that it makes people click on it. That’s our job as a RU-vidr. Your perception of Clickbait is a title that’s misleading and a lie. I don’t lie in any of my titles . Hahahaha HAPPY HUMP DAY!!!!

Having a house does not prevent all issues. A friend in Miami has 8 inches of water in his house last week from the storms and Houston is underwater right now. So things could be worse. Besides you just pimped your ride with a new engine.

If you got a way to inflate a kiddie pool for CRUZIE so he can lay down in water to cool his little belly, it could possibly help? Also damp towels in a ziplock bag stuck in the freezer??? For him to lay on??? A under belly vest with dollar store gel ice packs to keep him cool???

That happens when you beat your van up continuously in the dirt. Maybe if you just go easier it may get better. If you build a vehicle up to do the dirt it breaks and it gets dirty. Facts.

Look at some other positives too, Chrome. No yards to mow, no HOA telling you what you can or can't have in your yard. You can take your home out of harms way in case of fire, flood, or storm. No unexpected guests showing up expecting you to host them. You'd still have to maintain a vehicle that will rust and need repair. Yes it's tiny but that in itself cuts down on clutter. The only lifestyle more minimalist is like my friend who is living out of a backpack for 6 months as he walks the Appalachian Trail. Maybe taking it slower in the backcountry is the answer. 🤷‍♀️

I think because your rear door seals are gone worn out, as you travel forward that big brick is causing a vacuum around the rear doors which sucks air out of the inside.

Heya Chrome, remember there's vents in the rear on both sides of the vehicle so you can close your doors etc., and there's also a hole on the van floor on both sides by your D pillar, great spot to feed in electricity and plumbing so you don't have to drill holes in your van, that's probably how it's getting in.

Totally vibing to outtro tunes 🙌👍🎧🎵🎶. SUGGESTION: put a clean DROP CLOTH (IE: muslin) over ur ENTIRE bed n pillows, especially in the back country. It will catch dust/dirt and u can just peel it off and VIOLA! Clean Bed and pillows!!!

Probably never noticed so much dust before because the windows were up with AC on. When your window is down it creates a vacuum.

Get a new van! This has served you well, but is time to move to the next level. You worked hard enough for it.

Hey. It’s time to upgrade. Fix this later after you get back from galavanting across the continent. Then sell the van. It has anew trani and rebuilt engine. You got the ambo and the shop to camp in for a while. But having watched you from the beginning, you’ll probably rip it all out and redo that rust and more and just keep on keeping in that can. Love you C & C
