    That's grim. Should have been condemned and torn down years ago!
    I own a house stick built in 1950. The hardwood was covered by carpet which I despise, but I do have elderly dogs. I don't want the hardwood damaged by my dogs, so I've been agonizing over what to do with the flooring. Finally decided to have the carpet pulled and sheet vinyl installed. Not necessarily pretty, but it will make cleaning accidents easy AND protect the hardwood for a future owner.
    The house is small, but solid as a rock. No reason it wouldn't long outlast me!!
    Thanks for ya'lls content!

    You are single-handedly giving this lot the best advertising money can buy - for free! Have any of their employees taken notice of what you’re doing for them? I’ve been a youtuber since 2007, and I’m enjoying this content more than anything I’ve ever come across! Seriously!

    If done right, you can have a wood burning stove/heater in a mobile home. We did for years and years. This one - was not done right & probably not correctly cleaned out each season.

    Pretty crazy how people trash their mobile homes and give these types of homes a bad reputation. I grew up in a 1974 Horton Single wide and when I demolished it in 2007 it was in 20x better shape . It held up very well and still had it's original furnace and A/C unit that worked.

    • @mybrotherdonnie

    10:14, interesting how the illustration matches the way the frame of the trailer is built.
    13:22, if those mirrors could talk, but I don’t think we would want to know what they would say, lol
    19:40, why wouldn’t they put the hot water tank down by the kitchen where it’s needed the most or in that space next to the furnace.
    This house is a bit backwards.
    Can this trailer be saved??

    The mobile home I am living in and my mother brought it brand new in the later 1980s, she got it from Clayton it is still a nice beautiful home. It is truly sad to see this mobile home yall are showing ruined. There shouldn't be any mobile home flooring built with OSB .

    There's no reason Why these mobile homes aren't built with 2x4 walls, and you are not adding enough weight to even make a difference, even if the whole thing had 2x4 structure 1000 pounds is no big deal, Donnie as many of these home's you buy Spend 3500 go buy a used Band saw mill and cut everything you Need to fix them, I,m sure you have a ton of tree's on these Property's, You 2 would save so much money. You can make all your trim wall studs header beams, baseboards Hell You can make some Beautiful wide board flooring. think about it, 1 day your Carpenters can mill everything needed, in 1 day.

      I'm not against them but they absolutely don't last as long as a stick built home.these things are built more like a camper than stick built home. I'd rather live in a small trailer than my house (I only need a small bedroom, kitchen and bathroom honestly. ) I'd rather have shop space to work in or land.
