    1. Build material is not a building. My lack of engineering and construction ability does make them a better option for me in some cases.

    2. 8x40 does not equal 100, nor does it equal 200. What does level ground have to do with anything? You are really bad at math.

    3. You are just making things up.

    4. They look pretty tough to me with tons of bridge girders on them. I cant imagine your house holding up to that.

    I don’t know you but you sound like a Luddite and a complete fucking liar incapable of reasoned discourse.

        God I hope not. I don’t really see a future for housing at the moment.

        I do think container homes have a place at the moment. There are reasons I would consider one in the future.

          Why did you say he sounded like a luddite then? I’m honestly a little confused.

          Why would you get one, instead of a prefabricated house or trailer? Every time I’ve looked at the idea a prefab or trailer would just be better.

            I call him a Luddite because he resists any redesign.

            Prefabricated houses dont move very well. A container can be moved with a flatbed and a forklift. I think it is most likely that I will be living on leased property rather than something I own.

            I would prefer to be on someplace that is considered unbuildable for most construction, like a steep hillside. A pole building would probably work but the time for construction is pretty long and expensive compared to setting a container.

            I hope to live there part time and a shipping container is about as secure as you can get when it is closed up.

            Contrary to what others have said here the ones I have been in are pretty comfortable in the heat (which came a s a surprise to me.) I don’t have any experience with them in the cold. I suspect this is due to a high thermal mass.

            I trust these people more than the opinoins expressed in this community.

      Ok you convinced me please go live in one of these death traps that would actually be great you dumb sack of shit. I’ll be praying for a heat wace.

      Youve repeatedly admitted you have zero knowledge experience or skill and you’re still arguing with me about it. I do this shit for a living.

      Do you really not understand the difference in internal and external dimensions and how it affects living space calculations?

      Who am I kidding of course you don’t.

      Seriously are you like an actual child who’s still in high school or something because that’s about the only way this much of a lack of practical knowledge would be excusable.

      If your like 10 sorry I was so harsh, if not holy shit you’re the dumbest person I’ve crossed paths with in a while.
