What I’ve Learned Living Out of My Car

Toaster Entry #21: One year has gone by so quick! I’ve had tons of learning experiences with the Toaster, big and small, positive and negative! If I could travel back in time to talk to old Jer, this is what I would say!

You are not alone, brother I’m currently living out of my vehicle as well and honestly, I feel more positive than ever!!!

I’m about to move out. Can’t afford rent anymore. I think it’s crucial right now for people to learn to car camp.

I’m thinking of doing this by choice for a year or so. To get more comfortable with myself, to not be so materialistic, to downsize, to have a year to really get to know myself more.

[cxs]

You’re an inspiration, bro. You gave me the push I needed to downsize.

Great video. I have been living in my Toyota Prius for 8 years. I feel like I struck gold with this lifestyle.

I am moving into my 🧡Element in July! I’ve sold everything and have purchased everything except my fridge/freezer and Jackery❤ I’m excited for my adventure..a little nervous, but excited!! Headed to the PNW to start!

Woah I'm in raleigh. Back in 2018 I lived in my car for about 8 months. Toyota prius. It was great, but I didn't do doordash or gigwork back then. I was "stuck" at a 40 hour a week job only making 400 bucks a week.

Now I can make 400 in a day if I rlly tried (18 hours lol) anyway. Been thinking about doing this again, I have another prius. I'm realizing I could save so much money doing this with gigwork. My lease ends next December tho.i know it's a huge sacrifice, I've been an apartment dweller for 4 years now. Rent is just annoying and all the bills that come with it.

You are inspirational!! Living WITH yourself (not by youself) . You must be great company because you're getting to see more of YOU and are enjoying life with you!!
My husband and i are on our second E build. We LOVE our Element for MANY reasons.
If you ate ever traveling upstate are welcome to park your toaster on our off grid, middle of nowhere property!! (Becauseyou havegood energy)

I’ve got an 08 tangerine EX AWD and am trying to come up with a name for her. Thinking either PSLatte or Musubi. Thoughts?? 😜👍🏻
BTW your video on rear latch install was super detailed and helpful! 👍🏻👍🏻

How exactly do you wash your clothes? Do you borrow someone’s machine or do you go to a laundry mat? Do you wash it with your hand?

[t.terrell]

Do you work still? How do you maintain the balance of that with full time car living ?

[ExpectNuthinLess]

How did you make that rope roof rack in the interior of the car?

[lordofnothing.]
