I have to both agree and disagree. I've been living in my converted bus for about 3.5 years. It's harder and more complex than living in a fixed location but it depends a lot on the setup of your vehicle and how you use it.
If you have a low end conversion with no shower or toilet it's a lot more complex, especially in COVID times with limited access to public facilities.
If you have an RV or something like my bus with a full conversion it's not bad. I have to refill my fresh water every 2-3 weeks, that's it.
The hardest part is dealing with repairs. Typically when something in your home needs repair you don't have to move out.
