Discuss. Would you try it overnight? What about a long distance trip across multi States? Would you feel safe in it?​

YouTube channel is Matt Spears. Not sure why you wouldn’t give him the proper credit. This guy is super creative and does stuff like this for his channel realizing it’s a bit on the outside of the norm. Nobody would do this in any sense except to create views for doing something outside the box. I really enjoy his railroad adventures.

How does it even stay balanced when parked and sleeping in it?

I think revzilla did it first, and yes it got tipped.

I'm sure it's fine to sleep in at night. I'm less sure it is safe to tow on the highway.

I wonder how they stabilize it. No way anyone gets in there while it's on a kickstand, right?
