Wood or metal?

[Prepaday]

So, I'm thinking about getting out of here and moving to somewhere with some sun, Shipping containers look great and I think will cost less than a wooden house/cabin, plus a lot less work, Metal will eventually rust and wood could cause probs..look at Spain and the fires.
Transporting a shipping container up a mountain could be a problem, What do I do? any recommendations, pros and cons about wooden and metal houses please
Hope to fix solar panels to the outside of the house and would like house to be raised ..1.for water storage and disposal and 2 in case of flooding as would like a house near a river,stream etc. Also have to consider a cooking area, so maybe 2 shipping containers needed?
