- Apollo takes us through his incredible off-grid Tiny Home, which he built himself out of a converted army truck / military vehicle. He lives in this off-road capable rig full time so that he can live near his work sites - where he clears and renovates properties.

#Armytruck #militaryvehicle #armytruckconversion - Jak na to + styl
Who else was waiting for him to ride the bike down that narrow ramp and was disappointed when he used the wench? 😁
😂😂😂
Yeah bloody chicken lol
Blud said wench like bro makes the lady carried the bike down😭
Wench? I think he's single.
Cool, like that he wasn't worried about the interior looking like an apartment.
Military truck and chain saw at the ready, reminds me of the original Doom guy. ❤it.
Very cool. Looking forward with what you do with your 6x6
Would love to see him do videos of his build for the 6x6.
Yay! A real office chair! This is the first build I've seen that has a real office chair.
I love this layout. It's very stark -- but it works -- and feels very sane & practical. However, if I had my wiring under my desk like that, with no protection, I would be snagging my feet on the wires all the time & likely pulling them out.
I agree. The whole thing works, but that was the one thing I didn't love about this build was the under-the-desk wiring. I've seen a couple others where people hid/plant them inside their thick shower/back walls haha.
With the rising cost of home 🏘️ ownership and mortgage and rent, mobile homes are now in trend.
What's more, these new small home owners are getting more and more creative.
At $100k plus another $45k into the truck This thing costs as much as a average single family home in the Midwest and you’re not going to get a 15-30yr mortgage on it.
@@Civiliansoldier762and all that he pays in gas is as much as or more than some pay for thier utility bills
@@Civiliansoldier762 Buy flatbed truck and put prefab home on it😅
@@Civiliansoldier762 ln some places in the country $100k is a drop in the bucket. God bless you.
@@Cynthia-fx4we ok, move then? nobody cares that you chose to harm yourself financially.
Awesome tiny home and an engaging personality to boot.
Its a nice setup, i would only recommend maybe a coupe tweaks just to make it a little easier to live in.
If you're a tosser when you sleep, youre likely to accidentally kick the monitor and break it; maybe find a way to keep the monitors below the mattress and out of the way?
And maybe make a basic drain pump system that is built into the shower so you can just flip a switch and it pumps to the grey tank. Minor things that would go a long way in the long run, thats all.
I drive one of these in the army, its called a LMTV (light medium tactical vehicle) thrse trucks are a work horse, you can take them about anywhere, you can deflate this tires from inside the cab to either drive across sand or lower the height of the truck. I absolutely love these trucks, there is no terrain these trucks cant handle 🇺🇲
The reason your tires are not lasting long is because if you go over 55 MPH on that tire (for the S&S military trucks) they will heat up and slowly melt.
Keep it around 50 and the tires will last a shockingly long time, like years long.
I cant stop looking at his BULGE!! Damn!!!
I knew someone in the comments had to mention it and the thickness of the rear. Before one shakes he totally was advertising himself as much as the truck
The one thing I own that I love the most is my small standing desk and office chair, and always thought I 'd like to have it in my future tiny home. It's amazing to see you have it in your tiny mobile home. You could even add some cushions on top of the water tanks in the back under the bed to make a tiny couch. Very nice practical build
Gorgeous, I really like the truck too.
lol - I see what you did there! 😉
Apollo is CUTIE! ❤❤❤
Very handsome smart man with amaxing van injoy watching
My wife and I tried this for a year in an RV. It was not too bad but it definitely is not for us as a married couple. If I was single again, I most definitely would do this but probably with a motor home.
This was one of the best and most interesting videos. I love this build. It's everything one would need to be comfortably practical. Thanks for the tour.
I get my learners permit in a year. I wonder if he would let me drive it?
I think he would. He seems like a nice guy with a beautiful smile. @@digby_dooright
He is rich for sure
Love it. Even the tool box as a chest of drawers. Awesome!
I'm chanting for a man like this in my life.😍
Same!
Awesome Loved the truck, the guy, the bike, all of it.
The tool box dresser is brilliant!
If anyone has seen the 80's movie called Mega Force. Apollo's bike looks like one of the Bikes from the movie. Nice place he has.
This is the one being auctioned on C&B right now!
Wow thats absolutely well planned out. Pretty convenient all way down to the motorcycle.
I literally just found this truck for sale today...auction is at $10300 on 10/5/2023. I just googled Stewart and Stevenson for sale and it came up. Listing says there is only 17,000 miles on it so doesn't seem like this guy traveled that much in it. I would put the link but I don't know if CZcams would delete the comment thinking it's spam.
Link please !
Wow wow ! This is amazing & can go anywhere without no issues! This one is one of favorite ones ! Great build !
I used this same exact type truck for 6 years in the military as a work shop when deployed and in the field. Oh the memories.
Friendly tip to anyone thinking of buying one of these. The flat sides of the truck makes a great projector screen for watching movies or playing console games. I took a projector with me through all 3 of my Iraq tours. And some guys saw myself and the other mechanics playing Rock Band using my projector and Xbox. And shooting it onto the side of a LMTV truck. Next thing I hear they have one of their own and took it with them as they traveled from FOB to FOB.
Love that.
I built part of that truck on the line in Sealy Texas in 1998. Good to see you making good use!
SMART & Magnificent idea❗❗ Looks very safe!!
Very creative and nice has what you need for one person. You did a great job converting it.
one of these days ... I hope to be to the point where I could have someone tour my "house truck" ... so much to do
Alright, this is the life I was looking for, finally! Something like this would be the life for me.
😅wishing I could buy the old one off them when they get the upgraded version set up! This is so well done!
awesome truck setup, I like it!
There are a shit ton of military vehicles that would easily be capable of tiny homes, though the gas consumption and size might be factors. I could see myself with a tiny home in a deuce and a half, or a 5ton for relatively cheap.
You got some great ideas there thank you You're helping me it with my build I will be starting in about a month. It's time to declutter my life. Love the shower idea love love love.
Great setup in that rig.
I love it, except for one thing I wish you could make one of those a walk-through from the cab
That would be nice for a couple of weeks out of the year visiting folks across the country. Plus fishing and camping would be grand as well.
dude, I like you attitude of keeping it simple. The enterior got potential for improvements to make it more cosy. Also you always have to take the bike out when you want to go to sleep?
Would love to see the buildout for this truck (or the next one!!).
That is beautiful minimalist design
Good build! I appreciate a guy who's all about utility rather than just aesthetic. Although, I didn't initially love the amount of space the motorbike took up, I dig his unique solution with the bed lift. Saves a lot of space even if he just put it in to watch movies on his PC screen haha. Wonder how hard it is to fix the lift on his own though if it goes out.
Thanks for your unique and interesting videos.
That's pretty cool. And Ikea is pretty convenient too
Very well kitted out!
Glad your safe Apollo ;) 12:08
Love the winch system n ramp for the bike! Brilliant. (N love all things ikea lol) 🍻
That was excellent!
Love your style. Jealous… stunning build.
We agree! This build is impressive 💪
I always thought Unimog's would be good. Super utilitarian.
this is awesome- wish I was this creative, very very cool
Looks amazing!!!
Love it! What an awesome build.
Love your home and its very nice inside.
very nice set up
I wish I had money to do such activities. Very fun. Very functional
Super cool this Home
Loved this!
I enjoyed you're video.Thank you.
WoW! Very cool!
I definitely want a 6x6, the bed is 10 feet long, I'd put a chopped down shipping container on it.
I have a M1083- 6x6 means....more tires....and even less mileage 🙂
@@roceye a vehicle that big, you're not really worried about MPG
Love the stealth solar panels❤
He's a real nomad!
Great work nice home
Really cool. Pricey but cool.
There is a self recovery winch you can add to it for emergencies
good job nice work
pretty cool!
that is very impressive
Dude !!I love it man !!!!!! 🙃
Sure looks terrific , not sure there couldn’t be simple improvements to plumbing
Awesome!!! If shit goes down here that dude is gonna disappear and we will never see him again. He will be on top of some mountain somewhere
the background music in this video is so good i was jamming
Thanks for the lift bed video... it seemed the motor was very quiet, any chance you might share where that was sourced please?
I'm just guessing here... But I think that it looks like a whole lot of fun 😃
Amazing 😮😊
I live in a fifth wheel, it's not where it's like to be but someday i dream of traveling in whatever vehicle i make my home.
I must say... your Abode is totally* Awesome "😅🎉
36 days to finish all of that? thats pretty fast. Most truck campers i watch always takes around 3 to 4 months to complete
I love this! It is such a guy thing!! It is just wonderful because it is so right for him and his needs and this is what tiny homes are about, suiting your individual needs!! I really admire this cool build!!
I’d like to find one of the M-800 series long frame office trucks that the Army had
For one thing the tires weren’t as big as his and you could swap out the tube type split ring military wheels for tubeless either steel or aluminum rims to hold 1100r 20 ‘s in either a luggers or highway treads and like this guy regear the differentials
Very nice
This guy I'd a flipping genius.
Very cool but very expensive to run and maintain
Cool 😮
Nice job but if your tires don't last long and replacement becomes an expensive issue what the point of using and choosing this , you won't be able to travel far without worrying about tire issues and the expensive downtime with single or multiple blow outs ..
Nice real nice 👍🏽
Love it
Wow. Golden Gardens at Ballard!
Dean
Seattle
Ikea owes him a check
Practical l conversion but 8mpg sheesh 😮
Driving this vehicle needs a big space to park anywhere, permits needed too in some places, it should have kitchen too
GREAT EPICsode
How about some purchase, budget and run cost numbers?
This is gonna be dope when the apocalypse comes.lol.💜
I would paint it camouflage
Cool ❤
I would like to know everything about that shower set up . This what I need for my build/ tiny. Please respond as this would really help me to complete my build . Thank you
Impressive. I dont think theres much this guy cant do... Lucky gal that gets him 😉
Not one, but two chainsaws in the cab 😶 I'd be like, WTF is in the trailer?
