Mike has spent years traveling the world in custom overlander rvs, and he has perfected the art of converting vehicles to tiny homes. This is his 3rd overlander tiny house, and it happens to be a retired military truck that he's modified into a modern and surprisingly spacious home on wheels.

    This is by far one of the best build on wheels I've ever seen, a cross between a modern Ikea Showroom Interior and a Zombie Apocalypse Survival Vehicle!
  • @TheCoolDave
    Ok, this one is impressive. Walk inside and it's like a mini home, full kitchen, full shower, full bathroom in a small space and it does not look cluttered. Very impressive build.
  • @Thailerr
    You'll never find a happier man than one showing off his homemade toys. You can see the pride in this mans face throughout the entire video. Amazing build!
  • Had the pleasure of seeing this rig in person in October 2022 at the Overland Expo East in Virginia. It's even more impressive in person and Mike was a great guy to talk with. Very impressive build
  • @barnstar2077
    Wow, impressive. Respect to this guy for knowing what he wants, not compromising, and executing it perfectly!
  • @kimlawson6857
    I’m not sure if I’m more impressed with the rig or Mike himself. The home is absolutely amazing and this is a guy who seems totally genuine, totally down to earth, and knew what he wanted from life. Great job on both fronts.
  • Love how it is higher off the ground. No one will just be able to come knock on the door unless they have stairs. Beautiful inside design. Love everything about it.
  • This guy has built an EPIC rig. The ingenuity and thought he put into this is second to none.
  • That has to be the coolest, most unique rig I've ever seen. I loved the puzzle light in the kitchen. Actually, I love everything about it. Nobody would think for a minute that it was a house on wheels. It's absolutely captivating. We'll done and God bless!! ❤️😊
  • @Lilmonke_586
    Holy cow. This is an insane build. This guy should be so proud, his rig is incredible and he’s just living his best life. Very wholesome, nice job!
  • @kimjones217
    Best build ever, used common sense and actual thinking skills and covered all bases perfectly. Nice guy too. Good luck to you.
  • @ReclinerBabe
    As a 90 year old lil ol lady....I thought I'd seen EVERYTHING. (Especially in the motorhome dept.) I have to go back and watch this video again.... WOW! Just WOW! Absolutely amazing. I want one. My grandaughter drove similar rigs in her tour of duty in Afghanistan. Wait until she sees this! Grandma's blown away!
  • @lissanne9769
    This large x-military truck is absolutely amazing. All of the internal and external features and storage is incredible. This home/transportation/recreational/vehicle has been well thought out. Thank you for showing all of the details.
  • @bkmizu4897
    This is EXTRAORDINARY! AMAZING! I don't know what's more impressive, your efficiency and craftsmanship, or your eye for interior design. This is such a brilliant build. So awesome.
  • @Tech-ez1qj
    I installed Ikea cabinets in my house 15 years ago. They held up perfectly, look as good as the day I installed them. Although my house doesn't hit potholes.
  • a rain shower in a truck!!! A RAIN SHOWER IN A TRUCK!!!!.... seriously well done dude, amazing truck/home
  • This guy is obviously rich, smart, and extremely handy at building stuff.
  • I'v been watching motorhomes and expedition vehicles videos almost daily since 2020 and I can say this is definitely on my TOP 5. Amazing job, amazing! 👏👏
