From a fully built camper van, sports car, and now a Chevy Suburban, he's lived out of different vehicles for the past few years in an effort to find which is best for a home on wheels.
"I hate paying rent so today I'm going to show you how I secretly live out of my car," he said in one of the most recent videos posted to his YouTube channel,
The video shows how he cooks, sleeps, bathes, uses the restroom, and changes clothes inside the SUV using clever devices to make his life easier.
One of the first things to consider when car camping is where to park.

Arslan initially paid $5 to park his Chevy on the top floor of a garage in Denver, Colorado, because he liked the view.
By finding parking spots that don't post signs against overnight parking, he's able to sleep in his car without violating any laws and often doesn't have to pay for a space.
He stays off the grid and out of view of police officers and security by utilizing Google maps to find a place to park overnight.
As he considered leaving the rooftop garage spot, he showed how he found a public park in a small suburb where other cars were parked, which is preferred so he can avoid having his vehicle directly in front of someone's house.

When considering where to park, he looks up the average crime rate of the neighborhood that he plans on staying in to make sure he will be safe.
Arslan has electricity in his car via two large solar panels on the top of his SUV that power a portable bank.
By using solar energy, he skips having to pay an electric bill.
He keeps all the electrical components under a platform that he built his bed on to stay organized.
This also allows him easy access to power to use electrical devices in bed.
In every video uploaded to his channel, Arslan shows how he's able to make himself meals using an electric stove, and then cleaning the dishes with an electric pump in a small sink.
He makes custom window covers behind heavily tinted windows for privacy, which also help keep the car cool.
It also helps keep prying eyes from finding out he's living out of his car.
In another video, he revealed how he goes to the bathroom while living out of a car.

He showed off a gallon-container that he referred to as a urinal and was even able to wash his hands inside the car after using it.
Arslan has never stated how much money he's saved by living out of vehicles but it has to be substantial given the rising costs of living and rent.
