4x4 Micro #VanLife in a Truck: What Should You Get First to Start Living In Your Vehicle?

Hey Everyone! Sorry that I didn't get the solar panel mounts filmed...it started raining again so I'll include that in the next video. I've had a bunch of people hit me up asking what they should invest in to hit the road. There are a bunch of different directions you can go but here's what I think are the "BIG THREE" to make your mobile living successful and cost effective.

DIFFERENCE BETWEEN OFF-GRID AND SELF SUFFICIENT HOMESTEADING

Definition of "Off-Grid": Off-the-grid or off-grid is a characteristic of buildings and a lifestyle designed in an independent manner without reliance on one or more public utilities. The term "off-the-grid" traditionally refers to not being connected to the electrical grid, but can also include other utilities like water, gas, and sewer systems, and can scale from residential homes to small communities.

Self-sufficient means needing no outside help in satisfying one's basic needs, especially about the production of food, and homesteading means living a lifestyle of self-sufficiency. So by those definitions, the key to homesteading is learning to be self-sufficient.
