I'm not a pack-rat - small is fine. I work from my laptop. I don't know where i want to live yet, and I have two horses, and more an more I'm thinking of buying a used gooseneck live-in horse trailer, and changing the interior to fit what i need. This way I can travel to the national parks to ride in, have my home and my office with me - and my horses. i can also unhitch my truck if I have to go places. Has anyone done this before me? Big question...how can I keep my internet connection? (all else I can do off the grid, already figured that out) But the internet.. :-( I lived in a 560 sq ft home before and loved it.

I was curious as to how tiny of a house a person has or is considering to build. Maybe in 50sqft. increments or so; 1-50, 51-100, 100-150..etc. ~Dan I was just thinking of an idea for another poll..

I'm not looking so much at recycled building materials, rather, looking for good quality materials to begin with, such as, Denim Insulation, pine interior, Low-E windows... Right now, I'm overseas so my planning will change between now and when I get back home. (decided to add my so called blog. Not much on it but it's a start) ~Dan I put down $10K but with my current planning, Its closer to $12K.

Good poll though. It does not surprise me that most people see that paying $45000+ for a "tiny house" is absurd, especially hen you can buy or "recycle" and old RV for so much less and have more ammenities...
