Very useful and thank you for sharing! Love your videos.

Great video, very helpful and thoughtful. Glad I stumbled across it!

Collaspible water jugs are a good choice, you can fill up more than you can in a water bottle. And when empty they store excellent.

Great video, not planning on getting into van life but I love your input

This is so helpful, I’ll be on the road soon and needed to see this! Thank you for sharing!

But Tory, Expenses are just half of your monthly budget.What about sources of Income? Savings? Patreon? Monetized KZfaq? Ideally you should have a safety net/Emergency Fund of $2500 put away. Thanks for showing us the practical side of van life.

Thanks for the video Tory!🌸 It was very helpful!💐

Always love behind the scenes!

Very good info & great video!

I was lucky enough to get your video when you installed your underfloor heating. Great solution and I really hope you get a chance to tell me how it works. And now I watched your video on costs and I must say you make a great presentation. You should be proud of yourself!!! I'm mostly interested in technology, so maybe that's what I watch the most. But I wish you the best of luck with all the content you have in your KZfaq channel. Best wishes from Sweden!

Congrats on 100K. You definitely get the assignment! :)

Hi Tory : Loved the Video So glad you have figured cost wise to live great life out of your van

You're a wealth of knowledge! Thank you! Starting in my car with a 1 year goal to buy a van ❤

I spend $750 for rent,$55 for internet and $65 a week on groceries. I'm super frugal and my son takes me out to eat every other week which is enough for me. I usually get a couple quarter pounder patties from McDonald's and just get ice water from my frig to drink. My Social Security is $431 a month but I have savings.I'm 66 yrs old.I couldn't live in a van. Have fun if you guys do! Be safe!

Thank you so much!! This video is so helpful. You have a new subscriber.

This was amazing. Thanks so much. I am not on the road yet, but am planning in advance and can rarely find videos on van life budgets. Most are about how to create a camper van on a budget, but I want to know the everyday expenses. I just found you tonight and just subscribed. Thanks again!

Congrats on 100k subs! 🎉

Ooh nice, surprise Tory vid! I could use this after being kept awake for hours from siding renovations on my apt building. Days like this where I wish I had the van already lol! It'll be cool to see your expenses & whether they line up with my estimates of mine. Congrats on 100k!!

👏👏👏👏....this is very informative, its not that cheap, especially for us here in South Africa, where prices are just bladdy mental

My RV insurance is only $65/month with roadside assistance, low deductibles, $15k in roof damages, $5k in rodent damage, etc -- Progressive. And I just bought a Verizon hotspot for internet (zoom meetings, downloads, uploads) only an extra $10 on my $100 phone bill I already had.

It seems that van life can costs proper folding money. Thanks for sharing an honest reality check. Congratulations on 100K; onward and upward. 👍

Your living cost disclosure was given in a very clear, concise, and orderly fashion with a minimum of verbiage A+++ Well done!!! Flying J and LOVE truck stop showers, according to my understanding is that shower credits on a rewards-type card can only be accrued by buying DIESEL (No gas) How about buying "baby water" at Walmart for $1.00 a gallon?? When the weather is nice and in a rural area, laws notwithstanding, suggest cooking in a safe spot, over a fire with dead twigs and branches?? I am not a road person but I do love to dream!

Congratulations on 100k! 🎉

You are such an inspiration for me. Thanks!

My brother and I built a sprinter van - I wish I saw this video before!! Keep going!

Congratulations on 100k subs 🥂

Ayyyy congratulations on 100k subs!🎉

Wow that is awesome ❤❤❤❤❤

Thanks for sharing Tory- ..

Budget Princess gives the best advice

Nice to hear how much it costs right from the get-go. Thanks.

$244 a month for food?! Dude, I go through, like, $244 a week. Maybe instead of getting a van I should convert a refrigerator? 😂

Thank you for that info Tory. As I compare this with living as a single man in Belgium Europe, my food budget is about the same : some 250 euro a month + 50euro going out for drinks etc. BUT, and I guess you will know this, my health insurance is... 151 euro a year compared to your 5160 dollar a year! Good luck with your travels.

I love your colour scheme...

you are beautiful Tory always be aware of your surroundings hope your doing well I love you please be careful if I was there I would protect you you are so brave thank you God bless you.

This was fantastic information and on to the next adventure. Have a fabulous day Tory.

Tory, something to,put on your bucket list. Based on what I’ve seen you doing a trip across country taking “Route 66”! Anything and everything you want to find, investigate or what ever, even para normal. It is truly a most rewarding trip where one sees how at one time this was the iconic way to travel across country! Luv your videos, you and the life you living…stay safe, healthy and just enjoy while you can! 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹

T y Tori good info

Gas buddy app is your friend. It can literally save you. It can save you thirty to forty cents a gallon because stations change so quickly. Three miles down the road may save you that much.

I thought of a shower in your house lol. I was shy and didn't want to come over and ask you

Cool. I wish i was watching a year ago when you were in Boston 😢❤ but yeah idk if i told you yet. Across the country are campsites that are cheap called aot i believe and have a plug to charge your phone. I used to work painting in maine and i believe they were the cheapest campgrounds like 15 bucks a night.... I hope that helps u. I live in a trailer. So i kinda live in a van but stationary 😅😅😅😅 but yeah id have tried to help if possible 🥺lol its so cool ive always wanted to drive across the country. But yeah check out the aot's i believe they were made for bikers who were traveling cross country . Also theres these little stoves that my korean mom and aunts use. The can of fuel is the size of a can of spray paint... So they are very easy too use compared too propane or Coleman stoves. Heh, enjoy ❤😊

🎉 Congratulations Tory 🎉 100 k😮🎉

7:29 Looks like allergic reaction. I have similar on my fingers after eating too much oranges or contact with phenol-formaldehyde or latex :)

If there’s two planet fitness’s in that location you’re in you Can go to both 10 times a month .. you can go to any gym multiple times just only ten times per gym ( former employee) plus paying it in full most gyms can do and it’s like $400 and I think they skip the annual fee because of that

Almost every gas station. Has a watertap on their parking facility somewhere around the parking lot? You can always fill up water cans or hookt hose up to your Van. just asked them most of the time they'll just like to do it.

A lot of rest areas have free dump stations and free water

So what was the cost of your van, then what the cost of the conversion?

How about start going to different Churches ...they are very generous and giving.

$1153 per month is a lot more than I would have expected. Have you considered moving to an S.E. Asia country like Thailand, Malaysia etc. or to Mexico? You could live quite well there on that budget! Anyway, thanks for sharing and stay courageous. 💪 💪 💪

Unfortunately, Starlink RV has gone up to $150/month. If you really need it, it can be worth it, but it is pricy.

Were you in Vermont in the winter time??? I wonder about staying in my van in winter time because I still have to work.

Do you know how much your van weighs? My Travato has a curb weight of 7,800 pounds and it seems like independent builds don't add as much weight as everything Winnebago does. I'm curious as I get about 16 mpg too. You're doing pretty good at under $1,200. I had one month last summer where I spent $1,700 just on gas. Thanks.

Come to wilmington Nc

Its 2 am were i am at

$1,100 a month is high, but it also brings to the attention of, what kind of job do you have where you can afford that type of living? I know youtube isn't paying that much to live comfortably, but as I looked through the comments, you didn't reply to not one. So, that honestly speaks for it's self.

2nd biggest expenses is Health Insurance.... US at its best....

❤

May I ask how much is your van DMV tags every year? is your van considered commercial in your state? I have an 06 full size truck, in California trucks and Vans are considered commercial even if it's a personal vehicle, and my tags are $450.00 every and I have to smog it every other year about $65.00 + $10.00 for DMV certificate. thanks for sharing

Ah yeah, not watching for the van You know. Good Job Lady.

I don't understand... why wouldn't you just dump grey water somewhere in the grass? I seriously doubt anyone is going to get mad at you for that, and its not bad for the grass.

btw, I hope you're using a VPN on that laptop! browsing on public wifi is dangerous enough, but Windows 8 support has ended, so that makes it even worse. At very least, upgrade to win 10!

Tory?! You lived in Vermont?! Where about? I lived there for 15 years! I was in NORTHERN VT. St. Jay to Newport. ❤

Really nice video, and very precise information. & please🙄 never have hair cut

Have you gone hiking anywhere?

Do you excersize or just take a shower ? Thanks

Why not have your own shower? Or an outdoor one?

Just take a sponge bath or like my old boss would say a Puerto Rican shower.

So impressed that she can change her own engine oil! And knows how to budget and finance! Where I am from, That's hot! Very insightful video for Costs of living on the road! I need to bookmark this and take notes! - scratch that. A very helpful screen shot at the end of the video! Smart! Thanks for the great content Tory! You Rock!

It's 1am where I'm at...

I would like my whole house to be a fridge

Um you have to pay to dump water ? Can’t you just dump it anywhere and ride off ? lol

P.o. Box....$200 annually. 🙋‍♂️

You might be the perfect woman - low maintenance and not materialistic!

Notice how she doesn't include the COCAINE costs. 😂

😇❤️🧁☕️🫖

Hola de nuebo me en canta ver tus videos graciassss per doña me solo ablo es PAÑOL 👌👍😘🎉

SMASHHHHHHHH

Revelation 12:17 17 Then the dragon was enraged at the woman and went off to wage war against the rest of her offspring-those who keep God’s commands and hold fast their testimony about Jesus.

Bikini try on haul? 😂😂

The best thing about doing this is that not even Biden's 87,000 new IRS agents will be able to find you.

Just wondering why u don't ask ur parents to financially help u with ur student loans. Stay safe, girl

I have to correct her on the loves truck stops. The loves cards are for diesel not gas. You get .10 off per gallon. I know because we are currently truck drivers. The cards are mainly for professional drivers or any diesel vehicle

😢 what's wrong with you😅 are you like a hippy or something? It makes me worried for you. Now your popular and maybe you will have stalkers. You seem like a nice lady. Park it all you want in my yard I'll plug it in the ☃️

I dump my grey water where ever I want, and I dump my piss jug in the McDonalds parking lot sewer after I get my morning coffee. I refill my water at Walmart or windmill express stations with quarters. I go to food banks and tell them I'm poor to get food and say I have 3 kids and a wife so they give me more. I use Roamly for full coverage of the camper and all equipment. I don't ever pay for medical bills, I give them a fake name. I did sim card cloning to get free phone service and 5g, and use a repeater to steal wifi. I have no college loans, if I go to a coffee shop I don't buy anything. I use the washer/dryer of the next chick I am bumping. If not, I pay for it. I hardly use a stove, I've gotten used to eating dried, canned and food cold. I often use my dashboard to heat up food in the sun. I don't buy national park passes, if they catch me I just say "oh I had no idea I'm not from here" and get away with it. $1000 a year on fixes isn't bad. Mine is even lower. The only pet I have is my girlfriend.

I pay half of what most people do at cor of eigners
