The intro is professional grade video and your narration through the tour top notch. Amazed at how efficiently you have the MY setup. I hope you are successful in getting your channel going and living in the car works out for you! Good job.
You're a legend dude, super impressive! I hope you continue to get more views and subscribers but ultimately enjoy your time in the car and on your hikes. Definitely got some great pointers from your video. Adventure on!
Where’d you get those suction cup privacy partition. Right now I’m using a giant Tesla Wool Blanket with Clothes Line Pins clipped to the ceiling Material where it meets the glass. But what you’re doing looks better.
The one I'm using is the Tesmat privacy screen. It's supposed to cover all the windows but I modified it by cutting out half of it, so now I can just the the suction cup portion.
1:45 sorry have to say that the air intake is right next to the frunk storage space. I have put take outs in the trunk and smell it easily. Ofc, with recirculation off.
I wasn't conformable enough to remove them because I didn't want to expose the motor and the high voltage plug. Also I don't have a place to store the seats if removed.
Do you use/find free wifi to do you editing or do you hotspot your MacBook from your phone and it you do how much hotspot data do you comes with your plan? Also how do you make money living out of your car, remote work? Thanks :)
I go to the library for intensive internet needs and sometimes video editing as well. Some other times I go to a food court in a mall. I do freelance video work from time to time, but mostly living out of my savings atm
Lots of nice solutions. How much did you end up using your cooking gear? Lived in my car for a month this summer, but I used my cooking gear zero times. Ate precut bread, raw fruit and veggies, snacks, eating out/takeaway, etc. Ended up prioritizing other things than cooking. Just felt sort of like a hazzle to unpack everything, cooking, then cleaning stuff.
Thank you! I use the system pretty much everyday as I do enjoy the process of cooking and it does make my meal more enjoyable because of the efforts. However in rainy weathers, which is petty much everyday here in PNW winter, I find myself eating out all the time or just quick bread/ simple foods.
really enjoy your videos... could you please do some videos about daily cleaning (yourself :D) how do you handle small and big toilette ? Thank you so much for inspiring :)
So cool. Last week I found a way to re-used my handmade Model X camper-units to serve as a temporary kitchen unit in my new home, as I'm still looking for a new kitchen. It feels like camping, but then in my own house :-) Its that I have a school-going kid and need to finish my house, but otherwise I would have been building my Y-camper now and head out for the summer, and travel Europe unplanned. Man, Jealous with a capital J is how I feel ;-)
Thanks Khalil! I do save on rent but that money goes to the car payment instead. Absolutely best thing is being able to travel anywhere! No, I haven’t made a pro and con video. Will put that into my notes and do one in the future 👌
Hey there, really nice setup! I was wondering what kind of lights you use that attach to your tailgate? I know they are battery operated but I can't seem to find them in any of your gear lists. thank you for the help!
Very inspiring! Thank you for sharing, I also live in Ontario, northern part and I'm actually looking for a model Y. I would like to get in contact with you for more questions but Instagram doesn't let me. Looking forward to meet you on the road somewhere!
I'm looking at getting an inverter for my Model 3, why did you decide to get the 300W one? Do you worry about it drawing too much power? The power socket should provide 12a * 12v (or 16v for newer cars) from what I can see, 12a*16v = 192W, isn't the 300W too much? Thanks in advance
That’s true, the 300W has way too many watts, i didn’t realize that. At the time, I was looking for one that has 2 AC plugs and the lower watts only has one.
The front unit is super fast ~3 mins to remove. The back is gonna be a pain because of its weight, most likely need 2 people to lift the whole thing out. If you down size the thickness of the wood, it'll probably be much easier to remove with just one person.
I’m using the Tesmat Privacy Screen but modified by cutting it in half. A better and cheaper way to do it is probably buying two suction cups and attach it with a black cloth.
Damn bro! You have amazing content!!! Is it long range or performance??? I do have two Y long with my wife. How is your battery over time? And when can you do over all review with miles driven in snow climate?
Where do you park at night to sleep? Have you been vandalized? Ticketed? Harassed? If you had an EV6 or Ioniq5 you could plug right into 110v for your microwave or induction plate and get rid of that propane. You could even us it for a small heater for your tent.
Sometimes I park on the street, sometimes at parking lots, sometimes at free L2 chargers, sometimes in the wild. I've gotta a ticket when parking on a zoned street and got kicked out twice at semi-private parking lots. Yes! that's a really nice feature on the EV6/Ioniq5, wished Tesla had one in the Model Y.
@@LivinginTesla I would feel uneasy parking on the street overnight, especially since some people hate Teslas and vandalize them. Do you have a gun on board for self-defense?

It’s amazing how little one really needs to live. You’ve done a tremendous job outfitting your Y. Keep it up Jimmy!
Thanks Jason!
I’m envious of how well organized you are 😀 Also full respect for doing all this in a Canadian winter. 🥶 I bet you can’t wait for Spring ☀️
Haha thanks so much Bryan! Spring is very close by, really looking forward!!!
Really cool to get a look inside your home on wheels!
Everything is so purpose built, love the organization.
Thank you so much Jeremy!

Thanks so so much Ben!!
Haven't watched all of your videos, but the ones that I have seen have been of very good quality and very informative. Thank you!
Thank you Paul!
You could add a rear cargo holder, maybe Yakima for extra storage.
This is just excellent! The opening was superb. Great job!
Thank you!!
I saw a short video on tiktok and was very interested. And then I found your channel. Thank you and greetings from Montreal
Great vid and giving me lots of ideas around stealth camping as no-one suspects a CAR, rather than a VAN! Keep them coming 👍👍
Great setup. I love it. Simple, convenient, complete. See you on the next video. Nicely done.
Thank you! Less is more!
just wow man all the accessories
Recent subscriber here I love your videos!!! Mahalo from Hawaii 🤙
Aloha🤙 Much appreciated!!!
I'm already convinced by the video, there are simply more materials in the Tesla than I have in my caravan, I love that☯
Interesting! You must have more space in your caravan. Maybe the Tesla is smaller and it just looks like there are more stuff in a tight space
Wow amazing setup! I’d love to do that one day. Thanks for your videos!
Thank you!
"The road are realy bad. They need fixing" is Montreal brand!
Love your Tesla Y build.
Haha, thank you! Quebec deserves better roads!
Зимой ...жить в машине....незабываемый опыт наверное ..👍👍👍
This is very cool. A kinda new subscriber but have watched slit of your vids
Thanks Oscar! Welcome to the channel!
Bro is living life!
Good
Love your cinematography. I'm surprised you don't have a storage box on the roof of your Model Y.
Thank you! A roof box knocks out too much range, it's best to keep things inside.
Where’d you get those suction cup privacy partition. Right now I’m using a giant Tesla Wool Blanket with Clothes Line Pins clipped to the ceiling Material where it meets the glass. But what you’re doing looks better.
The one I'm using is the Tesmat privacy screen. It's supposed to cover all the windows but I modified it by cutting out half of it, so now I can just the the suction cup portion.
Great detail. When I get a Tesla I hope to follow your example for camping.
Awesomeness 😃
1:45 sorry have to say that the air intake is right next to the frunk storage space. I have put take outs in the trunk and smell it easily. Ofc, with recirculation off.
This is pretty cool. Thinking f getting a Tesla & driving all over US
That'd be really awesome!
Can you show how you do daily living such as restocking your food, water supplies? And a laundry day?
Wow that's a really nice build you have and so brave of you to start such a big adventure.
Thank you so much, appreciate it!
Have you thought having a 12v water boiler instead of a gas one?
No I have not, I don’t think the 12v in the car is powerful enough for that
@@LivinginTesla It is powerful enough, it just takes more than half an hour to boil water
Awesome setup! What were those three batteries you had that were near the inverter? I checked your gear list and didn’t see what they were.
Thanks Ashton! Those are the batteries for my DJI drone. It comes with 3 with their “Fly More” package.
Why aren’t you viral. You should be all over the internet like the girl living in a van with a snake was
Hey have you thought about a 4-5 Kw inverter generator and a jerry can to top up your car?
This all seems very thought out. Do you have a parking place or something where you have a guaranteed place to stay? I wish you good fortune!
Thanks Doob! I’m staying wherever I go now, sometimes parking lots, sometimes streets, sometimes in the woods
awesome video. funny to have fuel bottles in the EV though xD
consider putting a cargo carrier roof box
I’d prefer putting everything inside as cargo box will give a range hit. Used to have one a year ago 😄
do you use the car's heater?
Great video nice setup, I camp in my tesla model y performance all over florida. It just doesn't better 😃
Great video. Where did you buy the white rollable table I saw in your other videos? Thanks!
Fruble? frunktable.com
@@LivinginTesla Not the fruble. There was this white table that you assembled where you can fold it. Thanks.
@@busyfeet7197 hmmm, I can only think of the home-made frunk table before it became a product. This one? ua-cam.com/video/lo1UkuA-YF4/v-deo.html
NICE license plate too haha
Did you consider removing the backseats for the build? And if so, why didn't you?
I wasn't conformable enough to remove them because I didn't want to expose the motor and the high voltage plug. Also I don't have a place to store the seats if removed.

Man, Jealous with a capital J is how I feel ;-)
AMAZING, I like how resourceful you are. You may be able to modify that for your Y build eventually as well! I'm sure you can get to it soon!
@@LivinginTesla Thanks, with your ideas and inspiration I hope I will.
I also think we would get along pretty well :-) Just half a globe apart, haha.
@@TalkingTasman I’d love to go backpacking in Europe at some point!
Great vid bro , cant wait to upgrade my 3 to the Y when we get them in New Zealand
Thanks Graeme! There's so much more room, you'll love it!
Very nice. Question. Are you concerned about the propane tanks in the frunk if there is a collision? Is it safe?
That's certainly a concern and definitely not safe during a collision. I have since removed it and switched my cooking system to induction
DOPE build out
Thank you!
Im thinking about doing this too! Looks like it saves a lot of money and also allows you to travel a lot! Have you made a pro and cons video yet?
Thanks Khalil! I do save on rent but that money goes to the car payment instead. Absolutely best thing is being able to travel anywhere! No, I haven’t made a pro and con video. Will put that into my notes and do one in the future 👌
@@LivinginTesla awesome! I’ll be on the look out man! Bell notifications on!
You need to add a few more seasonings on top of salt and peper.
Haha, you are right and I have more seasoning options now :)
Amazing set up my guy! Awesome channel idea and life style. Do you have like a day job or just UA-cam?
Thanks Zach! I do have occasional video editing jobs, hoping to turn YT into an income source. We'll see how that goes:)
You deserve more views man...
🙏
Have you considered a roof rack to store some stuff outside the car?
I had one when I was traveling in the model 3 but the box is quite a range hit so I decided to move everything inside instead
@@LivinginTesla yeah that’s true. I have one on my Y and it definitely hurts the range. I wonder if anyone makes a more aerodynamic roof box for EVs?
@@james.a hmm I’m not sure James. I think all boxes are probably not efficient, maybe the smaller the better?
I wonder if you would be able to do this in a regular diesel car.
Sure you can
Excellent video!
Thanks Chase!
Cool vid! What were those gray blocks plugged into the power bar? Battery packs for your drone?
Yes! They’re the drone batteries.
How do you cook in heavy snowfall or rain? Would a tarp solution be possible to protect you a bit from the elements?
A tarp will be very helpful if you're in a forested area. In heavy rain or snow, I usually just use my Jetboil and cook simple meals inside the cabin.
When you live in a car, a very strong unpleasant smell appears. How do you deal with it?
Great setup Jimmy! I love Montreal. Enjoy! When are you planning on coming out west?
Will be coming after exploring some of the out east!
I think it makes more sense to use an electric cooking stove since you already have that inverter.
Hoping to switch in the future!
Hey there, really nice setup! I was wondering what kind of lights you use that attach to your tailgate? I know they are battery operated but I can't seem to find them in any of your gear lists. thank you for the help!
Thanks Andrew! It’s an awesome light and it’s under the camper build list, here it is: ohjimmyfilms.com/modelycamper
@@LivinginTesla I see that now in the list, apologies for missing it! thank you for doing such diligent work!
Great video and thanks for sharing what’s inside! Some useful insight!
Thanks Brian!
Very inspiring! Thank you for sharing, I also live in Ontario, northern part and I'm actually looking for a model Y. I would like to get in contact with you for more questions but Instagram doesn't let me. Looking forward to meet you on the road somewhere!
Thank you Patrick! My Instagram should work but if not, please feel free to email me jimmy@fruble.co
where did you get the side trunk pockets?
Those are directly from the tesla accessory shop
Nice. Cooking using GAS. 😊
How funny, I also store chopsticks in my driver side door 😅
Haha, that's a convenient spot for them!

t-Y!
What do you reckon how fast this is removable and re-installable if you need the rear seats or cargo space for day to day?
The front unit is super fast ~3 mins to remove. The back is gonna be a pain because of its weight, most likely need 2 people to lift the whole thing out. If you down size the thickness of the wood, it'll probably be much easier to remove with just one person.
What's the total out of pocket cost for this setup? How about the total time to build it?
My total cost was close to $1000 CAD with one month build time.
@@LivinginTesla Thanks. Pretty good. Can you sit up in bed without hitting your head?
@@wooac nope, can’t sit up at all which i have now gotten used to. It serves solely as a sleeping area.
Hello may i have a link for the curtain that divides the front cabin n back cabin? thank you
I’m using the Tesmat Privacy Screen but modified by cutting it in half. A better and cheaper way to do it is probably buying two suction cups and attach it with a black cloth.
@@LivinginTesla oh wow thats very smart. Thank you very much sir
Keep up the great content!
Where do you brush teeth, especially rinse mouth inside the car ?
Usually just outside the car, on the ground or in the woods.
may i know how do you take shower?
I go to the gym mostly, but sometimes when the weather is warm enough, I just use my portable shower kit.
where do you charge?
Usually wherever I can find a free plug.
Dope!
🔥🔥🔥
Very strange to see a video that only has 360p and 1440p choices...

Damn bro! You have amazing content!!! Is it long range or performance??? I do have two Y long with my wife. How is your battery over time? And when can you do over all review with miles driven in snow climate?
