Saw this Modded Prius Today

I moved to Southen Mississippi a few months back. I was on my way to get some groceries when I saw this modified Prius parked by the beach. I believe the owner is stealth camping so I didn't want to disturb them too much. Anyway...2 pictures...I hope.

I think the owner was sleeping in the car. On the return trip home, I noticed it had rotated a few degrees in its parking spot. Most likely trying to avoid direct sunlight. It has been there for a few days.

It does have a lot of mods.

It's this person. Based on his Instagram, he lives out of the car.

That's cool, it looks like he has been doing a lot of traveling.

On an unrelated note, maybe I should sign up for Instagram.

Whatever he's doing, it ain't stealthy.
