- How much does it cost to live in my Honda CR-V? I’ll break down my expenses in this video so you can get a picture of what my budget looks like!
Also I purchased my 2004 Honda in cash, so that’s why I don’t have any monthly car payment :)

I do house/pet sitting. Usually only have about 5 days a month, downscale so every thing I own is in my car. Spend those days traveling or visiting friends. I use rover and can go anywhere and find a job.
Hi do you know how to change the location on rover?

Ok, sorry I’m replying so often I’m up in the middle of night with a migraine. Down at the bottom click on … more. Go to profile, click on the pencil at tope. Go down to manage you profile and click on basic info. There you can change home address. Good luck.
@@freckles8119 That was nice of you to respond while not feeling well. 💜
My main takeaway from this video is that I need to claim residency in SD. Those prices were amazing! I live in Michigan and registration and insurance is just insane.
Thank you for sharing. It's surely cheaper than living in an apartment. Pippa is such a wonderful companion. If there are security cameras inside/outside the car to share with friends and family who also may check on you would be even better.
I think you’re doing great!!! Rent alone would be $1200 a month for the most part! Awesome job, you’ve got it figured out! Proud of you!
I live part-time in my pick-up truck, I am looking to do a van, so glad you did this video
Hello 👋 how are you doing?
Hey there Brooke and Pippy. I love all the updates and seeing both of you.. have a great weekend.💜
Thanks for sharing! I loved hearing how this has brought you financial freedom. Way to go!!
GREAT meeting you and Pippa today at McDonald's! Let's get together while we're both in Quartzsite!!! Marie❤️
Great video!!! I recently found you on youtube and started watching all of your videos from the beginning. I really appreciate your transparency on your numbers. It makes me realize I need to shop for a better car insurance price. I pay 440/6mon on an 06 Lexus SUV for liability only in KS. Ppl are saying you are homeless, but you are not!! You have found a way of living that works for you!!! Yeah, they might have an apartment/rental but they don't own that. They could lose everything from a neighbor being careless with a space heater or kitchen. I have 2 future posting ideas if you haven't done them already.. 1. Your battery/solar panel set up. 2. You talked about your budget and expenses, would you feel comfortable talking about your savings.. and/or what you do with the budgeted money that you don't use? Thanks.
Safe travels ..may Angels follow your treads and keep you safe during what lays ahead!
Awesome video! Thank you so much for putting out such a helpful interesting breakdown of your cost of living. :)
Brooke I just found your UA-cam channel and omg your candor and love for your princess touched my heart. I have 4 dogs and I can't imagine not having my fur babies in my life. You're genuine and very likable. I am very busy but I will follow your postings and keep both of you in my daily prayer for blessings of peace, love, happiness, health and wealth.
Smart and wise women. I've been contemplating on buying a truck and a cab over truck camper to live out of
New subscriber! Brooke I’m so glad I found your channel! This is something I’m hoping to do at some point!Looking forward to following you and Pippa!
Found you today. I have a 2002 Honda CR-V and looking to do the same. Will be looking through your other videos.
You’re taking good care of your pet. Bless you.
Love it! So ready for the new tour!!
You go girl !!! Sounds like you have a better lock on your expenses than we do. My wife and I went into retirement May 2021 because the self storage company we worked for sold out. We have been living on 1500 a month, got a small raise from SS now 1550 a month. We are living the complete opposite of you, we stay home and don't travel at all. This mostly due to back issues I have, I need to change sleep positions and surface 3 times a night. Start on the recliner, then sofa, then bed. The 2 of us and 2 cats are breaking even. I had a start number of 59080 (debt - cash) and that's about where we are now. No savings but our home has increased in value 50-75k since we retired (but it's not for sale)
this was a read
If youre in the US the housing market is ready to implode sorry to say
MOST banks have free safety deposit boxes for account holders, if you have pictures etc that you don’t want to keep in storage but want to keep it safe somewhere.
Great video! 1st one I have seen from you. Excited to look up past videos to get to know you and Pippa. Safe Travels 😊
Welcome to my channel!
I'm enjoying your channel very much. Thank-you. The layout is so much better with the back seats gone. Is there a video about that you can point me to please ?
I love your videos. Such good information given in a positive way. Bless you and Pippa. Who is super cute.
Thanks Brooke & Pippa, very informative 😊
Thank you for sharing all your information and being honest with us.
You can get a laundry pod. Very small. No power. You do it by hand it’s very easy even elders can use it and it spin dries saves a hella lot of money
Love watching you girl! You make my days happier!! Love you Pippa too😁
Hi Brooke hope you’re having a good one thanks for all your responses
Thank you for this breakdown. I'm on SSDI, and only get $1500/month, so it's great to hear that you can make it work on that! I'm encouraged.
1500 on didability is ALOT Im on SS and only get 1350
@@frederickmuhlbauer9477 Yes, it's good. I get a little less than that because money is taken out for Medicare, but as it would be taken out for health insurance if I was working, it's a wash. Best of luck to you.
You guys rich compared too SSI people on less than 1k a month.
@@BLUExEYEDxSLICKT I agree. It's a crime how we treat the most vulnerable citizens -- people who've paid their taxes, worked as hard as they could, and followed all the rules. America must do better!
It cost less then $1200 for a one bedroom. I have an electric car and moved in it in 2021 when rent double in price
Nice watch and informative! Take care both of you👍❤️❤️
Add your rent/mortgage and home insurance, lights and gas, water bull back inot your budget..that's how much you are saving multiply that time 12..there yiu go
I live in Miami, my auto insurance is $160.00 per month, we have 2 cars total $324.00 per month. Food prices are off the chain high! Gas is $5.00 per gallon!
New subscriber here! Wow teuly impressive skimmed thru some of ur prev vids and teuly inspiring. Will be following ur upcoming vids all the best and Pippa is so cute. Cheers
A dinky semi automatic washer might be an option for you, do a UA-cam search, and there are manual washers available too.
Hello 👋 how are you doing?
do you budget for savings? Do you get yearly checkup with your doctor? Do you pay for security cams, or a protection service for your car?
Looks really comfy too - well done!
Ants should be more feared than spiders.
Excellent budget breakdown!
That’s cool you have your residency in SD. I’m from SD.
Just subscribed.....love your videos. You are smart and creative.
Thanks for your transparency. How many miles do you out on your car monthly to change your oil so frequently?
Wow! Such a good video. She talked about sooo many expenses I never even considered! I wish I could do this but I just don’t know how I would make an income from the road 😭
It aint easy

A lot of people are doing this now because the cost of living is so damn High
Homelessness is on the rise.
Yup and alot dont even own a vehicle
@@frederickmuhlbauer9477 people using terms like houseless as opposed to homeless aren't accepting the fact that they're homeless and that their highly skilled jobs don't even provide them with the basics of life EVEN at pay above minimum wage. It's deplorable.
Yup
Hi, really enjoying your videos. What is your healthcare insurance? You said Marketplace? I’m not familiar with that.
First time watching. I enjoyed your video and subscribe
Thank you! 💜
Awesomeness! I have a thought of doing on road living!!
Just discovered you . love your channel!
Where do you park and sleep at night? Most cities don't let people sleep in parking lots or on the street. Don't cops ticket you for loitering in public areas.
There are apps that tell people which location is good. Some Wal-Mart stores do not mind.
Interested to know how much u make.. love how organized everything is
I love watching your videos and I am drawn to living tiny so I can live big and experience the world. But the work thing is the issue cause I work from home and need hi speed internet. What do you do for internet?
Hi Brooke I'm interested about what you said about health insurance. can you tell me more?
My dogs trachea is collapsed too does your dog start coughing like three or four times like she’s choking? I get so sad when she does this I know it’s not pleasant. I have an extremely close relationship with my Westie Sookie because I was bed ridden for two years I’m just now feeling great! I want to do what you are doing, but I’m scared to try, lol. Good luck enjoy!
What kind of medicine do you give your dog for her collapsing trachea? How were you able to get her diagnosed? I was just asking cause I'm not sure what my dog died of a few months ago but me and my wife suspect it was because of that. We took her to the vet 3 or 4 times in a span of 5 days. Each time we brought her in, she would act fine in front of the vet and didn't show any symptoms but at home, she would constantly gag I think. It seemed like it was hard for her to breath. She would make this weezing sound. She was older but we are not sure if she had a bad heart. The vet said her heart was fine. The night before we took her to another vet and they put her in a box with a dehumidifier and I actually think it made it worse for her.
Very interesting, 11 years ago I purchased a house in Arkansas (for about 20k) and my monthly expense which included all the utility bills, water, electric, trash service, property tax, insurance for home/vehicle, food gas, everything combined was around $200 a month and I was working remotely and due to down-sizing of the company making about $214 a month.
Yes I was spending about $30 a month on food and had to use old shower water to flush the toilet, but was able to pull it off.
Hi Brook surprised to hear your having oil changes so often ? Surely cars don't need oil changes so often these days.Luv your work
I do it about every 5,000 miles lol. I drive a lot?
@@BrookeandPippa Gosh.im in Wales UK have just put my car thru conversion I still to get electric sorted. Here free camping is more urban, but for summer I'm over to France and October I will be in Spain so enjoying watching how you do things.. Bonne Route
Oh yeah that makes sense, I think people from the UK forget just how large the US is. It’s easy to rack up the miles without even trying
How much does it cost? Now that gas prices have skyrocketed it costs a lot more and as a result it isn't practical for most ppl anymore.
they dont go straight off your driving rate since 1997 they started going off your credit score, which really has nothing to do with driving, its just another way for insurance companies to rip people off.
I dont mean to be rude but how do you support yourself? I know you mentioned having a busness. ,,I m possibly going to need to live in car and curious
Happy that this works for her but it definitely wouldn't for me. I can understand how the van/tiny house living for some can improve their lives, but for me this would totally lower my standard of living. I like having elbow room, bathrooms, and space to put my sentimental items. Not have this would make me feel depressed.
What do you do with your dog if you want to say go to a party or a dinner or shopping..
Do you report your mileage to your insurance company, since insurance companies require it
Why would you not just buy or finance a $5,000 SMALL camper. The payment and rent for camp groups would be the same as gas? Or cheaper.
Are you able to put some funds monthly into a savings or retirement account ?
How do you get internet? What about ur mail? Doctor and dental visits?
New sub here. :) We have some things in common so I thought I’d ask if you’ve ever considered renting a room somewhere? Might be cheaper than the cost of gas nowadays. :)
God bless you for caring for your pet.
You dont that up your grocery food? What do you normally eat?
I DON'T KNOW EXACTLY WHY...MY HEART GOES OUT TO THESE KIND, BEAUTIFUL LADIES THAT LIVE IN THEIR CARS... I PRAY THAT GOD OF THE HEAVENS WILL SEND THEM A KIND, LOVING, CARING, GODLY MAN THAT WILL TAKE GOOD CARE OF THEM. ... THESE LADIES THAT LIVE IN THEIR CAR DESERVE ONLY THE BEST💞💞💞💞💞💞 GOD BLESS YOU ALL...💞
Amazing. Great ideas for sure.
Very thorough thank you so do you have all your Public media under your LLC that’s intelligent if you do
All of my income, even through social media goes through my LLC
200 every six months! Wow! Girl how did you do it? Great record for sure 👌
Pawp is like 14 to 19 a month with 3000 coverage for an emergency once a year, and they claim to cover pets even with existing health conditions.
That's what i have.
For basic health issues and checkups i just pay out of pocket because its cheaper than paying any monthly fee.
I have a great medium sized apartment in Mid Town Detroit for only $800 a month. Dog friendly, clean, great neighborhood. 👍
@Kaci It's much better than what it used to be for sure, and the number of renovations and other projects like the River Walk and Joe Louis Greenbelt are making it a great place to live and work.
There's work to be done still...the neighborhoods outside of midtown need more help, and unfortunately the majority of the high wage jobs are out in the suburbs, but that's changing.
Majority of the crimes here are targeted IMO..you always get random break ins and theft of course, but most of the violence stems from interpersonal relationships vs random victim crime. Just use common sense like anywhere else, and your cool.👍
$40 a month for nhealth insurance at South Dakota standard means: they will cover the cost of your hospital bracelet if you are sick, everything else is on you.
40 a month for hospitalization is dirt cheap
Who do you use for pet insurance?
how do you keep warm in the winter?
Health insurance?
This is very interesting. Thank you!
How are y’all dealing w this heat?? Much love from Texas ❤️
Hi Brooke love your channel and pippa
Hello 👋 how are you doing?
My question/s is/are: 1. if you choose a climate friendly place, how do you manage the heat? Cars or vans wear out fast with constant sun and heat. 2. How do you manage moving locations? Assuming that the whole purpose of this new living is to not pay rent etc..? Are RV parks getting pricey?
Yes like everything else
Top of that you not paying other necessary things like basically when you live in Brent you paying rent you paying bills and top of that all that money then one month right but if you come to compare whatever is the cost of living in a car not paying bill was not paying rent well basically ass up less than what you pay and living and rent okay so regardless however you think is less than you save up more money and if the car goes wrong of course you have to repair it and then keep on and keep saving and keep having money then in the long ride you will have eventually what you want to have or how so whatever it is that you want to achieve sooner or later so that's no no kind of that's a sacrifice that people has to go through just to see what they want or what you want to have or what you want to do
What pet insurance do you recommend for my Jenny?
Just what we all gonna do when stations are out of ⛽ gas??
I pay in Toronto over 1350/year for insurance
what kind of places do you park at to sleep
How often do you go threw tires 🤔
That's so on the low end.. great job
How do you figure out where to stay? And how do you stay safe?
With gas prices so high in California just taking kids to school, doing shopping going to doctor appointments. I was seriouslywas being carreful. payed 200.00 for 8 days and needed gas on the 8th day
I paid 198.69 for all of April for gas and camped in 3 states, even with high prices I came in under budget.
@@BrookeandPippa How much is gas where you are. The Low is $ 6.20
You’re all ready way over my monthly income! Lol!
Where do u shower, use the restroom ex.? I would be scared of vehicle breakdowns or flat tires,and safe places to stay,good luck with your adventure!
I tried several times to leave my husband. Vehicle break downs get me all the time.
Ya i usually call a cab when that happens
How do you stay warm or cool as needed?
God bless you and Pippa.
You are an amazing gal. My kinda fren 🤗🤣. Love your candor and nothing funnier than the truth right??! 🤣🤣 Speaking of awesome restroom vid. I'm obsessed with mobile living, even if not constant just a leisurely push across country would be a dream come true. You are a bright light and the land is happy to receive you! (Hopefully you know what I mean if not me sorry 🤗)
I would love to hook up with frens out on the road thru out years creating reunions every few months... 🤣🤣
Quick question: what pet insurance do you have for her?
150 month phone ? U can get phone for 50 dollars a month with about 15gig of hot spot ... also dog insurance 65 a month is too expensive.. u can save that 75 dollars a month as an emergency fund it will more than cover any vet bill when time comes
Did you say Marketplace for health insurance? What is that? Is it specific to South Dakota?
The marketplace, like healthcare.gov. You can apply from any state, it’s the public health insurance option. I’ve used it in TN, IN, AZ, and SD. It’s what most people have to use that don’t get insurance from their employer. I’ve never had a job that provided benefits so I’ve had to use plans on there since I was dropped from my parents insurance.
Best wishes from Cornwall England 🌳 🌷
Would tou be able to share the name of the pet insurance tou use?
I have it linked in my Pippa FAQ video!
Hi Brooke! I’m moving into my Honda CRV in June, and your videos have been so helpful to me! I had a couple questions that I was hoping you could help me with? I saw that you put reflectix on your flooring, do you think it’s actually helpful? And did you do it to keep heat in or keep it out? And do you think taking your front passenger seat out was helpful in giving you more space? Thanks so much for your help!!
Hi! I only used reflectix on my floor to help level it out because I took the carpet and seats out in the back while I was already living in here lol. I needed a cheap, easy, and fast way to do a ‘sub floor’. I then just covered it in duct tape so it was relatively waterproof for spills and such and so Pippa and I had something smoother to stand on. I don’t think it makes a difference at all in temp. Yes taking out the front seat allowed me to pull my bed forward enough to accommodate my fridge in the back so I can have a bit of a trunk kitchen. I have a video coming out on Friday that shows all of that!
Thanks for the reply! Very helpful! ♥️
I wanted to ask what you will do with your things once you no longer have the storage unit?
I decided to keep it!
