i found this pretty cool. it reminds me of that old book "the box car children."

i've been working on containers/trailers (and tractors) for the past 4 years. the only issue i can see with this is insulation issues. when it's hot out...containers/trailers turn into ovens, and refrigerators when it's cold. regardless, this is still a damn good idea...especially for the working poor.

i've been following this for some time, and it is a great option, but they are primarily building for housing in mexico.

I have known one of the guys since I was 5 (Pablo Nava) and he and his family own hotels in mexico and have family that live there, so they are trying to help out wherever and however they can!

It doesnt mention it, but Pablo was also Notre Dame's kicker on their football team
