Clayton Balabano and his wife, Theresa, have been in the news for converting a big truck into a modern mobile home for themselves.
The man said it has always been his dream to have a mobile home to travel around when he retires, but he could not find anyone that suited his needs, Insider reports.

"We needed solar, recycling water, and things like that, which would leave a smaller carbon footprint, making up for the amount of fuel that the truck uses."
Since he could not afford a new truck, the man bought an old one and started to change its interior, Yahoo News report.
The man stated that he did most of the conversion himself. His wife assisted him in getting every material he needed to get the job done. Clayton gave the estimated cost as around $181,100 (N83,396,550).
Kitchen and Starlink for movies
Everything that makes a good home was in it. The kitchen was well done, with cabinets fitted in. There is also a stairway in the truck.
Apart from the rooms and library in the truck, there is also an office. They have a movie theatre with a 75-inch TV. To stream content, they have Starlink installed in their mobile home. The man, however, regretted spending five years working on the conversion.
