House Trucks – One way forward…

They allow you to set up home anywhere your wheels can get you.

I like the freedom. Just make sure its a good spot before the oil runs out…

This is one my friend built in NZ a few years ago from an old short wheel base truck.

This is his new project…you can follow the build here and see more photos of the old build. Its pretty snug inside.

The new one is pretty ambitious but I think it will be epic once its done.

This is another one that a different friend saw in NZ…looks pretty permanent but I guess once you have found your spot why would you need to move…

Loads more slightly ridiculous looking bastardized trucks here…

We drove 5 1/2 hours north to Christchurch (the biggest city on the south island) to buy our wedding outfits. The route went through the heart of the south island, past massive lakes, lush farmland, wide open arid plains with arrow straight roads, and wiggly mountain passes.

The next morning, we went shopping…it was an extreme shock to us both to be back in a large hectic city for the first time in a year but we finally got our outfits, and then escaped for the night to Banks Peninsula, an hour away but a completely different place with huge rolling hills and small fishing ports.
