I really don't think this young man knows what a talented mechanic, designer, builder and engineer he is! Oh, and electrician--he is amazing and everything inside the trolley is so gorgeous. Just imagine waking up in the morning to your favorite views! Thank you Erik for sharing your home with us-it is perfect!

Erik is the best! I went to high school with him and he’s truly one of the most creative and talented people I know. What an amazing video to showcase him in all his glory!!

The trolley is not the real treasure, this young man is ❤❤❤

This has to be the most work done on any vehicle, ever! I'd say this young guy is a jack of all trades, master of ALL. Talk about having to replace just about everything to make his trolley livable -- no wonder it took him six years! But it was worth it; his trolley home is beautiful and built with love and care. 💗

Being a 72-year-old grandmother interested in traveling tiny, I have seen a great many endeavors of this type, but yours is truly unique -- and I think you are an amazing young man! Your diverse skill set, remarkable level of competence, and strong work ethic are admirable. But what I appreciate even more is your genuine warmth, lighthearted humor, and playful sense of whimsy. You've created an exquisite home for yourself that I hope you are able to enjoy for many years to come. Excellent job! I wish you a life filled with love, laughter, and an abundance of all good things.

This man is VERY talented….I have watched many tiny home/bus builds over quite a few years, and this is hands down the best in every way. He has a real talent. He first had the ability to actually build/repair all the mechanical/structural parts of the trolley…then he built it out in such a cohesive/artistic/creative way…from so many found pieces….that dont look like what most people would build out of found objects…I feel like i cant even express how impressed I am for what he has done to make this trolley what it has become…he should be very proud. I dont think a professional designer could have come up with the look that he gave this build…hearing him explain how certain parts of the cabinets and other parts were actually made out of so many separate items to become one useful piece…totally blown away. Love it in every way!!!

Dude, when the apocalypse hits, I want him on my team lol the amount of wiring and different kinds of work he did on this vehicle is very impressive. A lot of people can build out the body of a vehicle, but he seems like someone that really knows his stuff in terms of mechanics and electrical, and it shows I also love how steampunk this is, but in its own unique way. It feels very authentic and original, nicely done.

One of the most unique builds ive ever seen. Never did i think a trolley could be converted to a road legal home on wheels. Its crazy. Props to you man. Late 1800s-early 1900s decor is awesome too. Good job on this one for sure!

I’m at a loss for words.To be able to build this home and know exactly what you’re doing just blows my mind. What an ADORABLE Trolley home! Nice job!!!👍🏽

You had to listen to the Trolley and build what it wanted to be built as. Wonderful!

This trolley is absolutely gorgeous. I can’t believe he did all of this work. He is so clever in his utilization of materials and its genius how he was able to change out the engine, basically rebuild the whole thing inside and out. One of a kind badass ride! It’s so nice to see it have a second life after 100 years. 😊❤️
