When the wife says you’re on the couch pssssh I’m goin in the truck baby 🤣🤣🤣
😂😂👍🏻
I still have my boys intact so I don't do what I'm told😁👍
I appreciated the simplicity and attention to detail. Keeping it uncomplicated keeps the stress away.
Are you from IL??

I have a small off-road camper, so I'm not sure why I watched this entire video other than it was totally cool! Minimalist and efficient...well done thoroughly enjoyed it.
Thanks👍🏻
One of the coolest 'minimalist' builds that I have seen. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks Bruce👍🏻
There is so many creature comforts in this, I’d love this setup! The heated blanket idea is genius!
Thanks👍🏻
This is a very smart design for 1-2 night stays and provides safe, dry sleeping without messing with a tent, ect. Thank you.
Thanks Kenneth👍🏻
A long way from tree houses and forts we built as kids with scrap wood. The feeling of freedom still remains. You did an outstanding job on this rig with craftsmanship and thought process. Its always an outstanding night when a new BWO and CrazyQuady adventure pop. Enjoy that rig to the fullest.
Thanks👍🏻👍🏻
I'm right there with you with the idea of "less is more". I plan on using my tent as much as possible but have the option of staying in the back of my F-150 if the weather is terrible or I don't feel safe enough camping outside alone. I will watch these other videos with elaborate setups but just to find that small, little detail that I could use for my setup, like Quady's cot organizer, that was a genius idea! Awesome video 😁
Thanks so much👍🏻👍🏻
Totally agree my friend, I live in new brunswick Canada and we have bears truly big bears and lots of them I use to tend a fair bit but not no more it's gotten to risky given the high bear population, Brian did an awsome job with his truck and so much safer.
I love the simplicity and the cleanliness of your build. Awesome job! I want to build something like that for my F150 soon
Thanks Carson
Absolutely 💯 LOVE the streamlined build! Functional without all the fussy fluff. Also, love the extra room for PIG too. She's gonna adore the new setup. Can't wait until you post a camp video in it. Bravo well done. ✔.
Pigs gonna love it👍🏻👍🏻
The CamJam/paracord combo was a great idea for securing the truck cap back window. Thank you.
Thanks Jan👍🏻
Awesome....common sense approach to a pickup camper. Well done Sir.
Thank you Daren👍🏻
No walk-in tub? No ceiling fans? Come on Brian! Sheesh!
I know. I got lazy👍🏻😂
this has to be the most simplest and most useful truck bed sleeper set up for a weekend getaway.
👍🏻👍🏻
Brian… what an awesome build! I am so excited for you and I can’t wait to see all of your adventures with the new truck and camper! Enjoy brother and thanks for sharing with all of us! ❤
Thanks so much Jay👍🏻
The “carpet” on the tailgate makes it homier, not homlier🤣
Love the work👍
I had a Z71 with the bed rug and lined camper shell. Absolutely wore it out. loved it. You did a great job. Love it.
Thanks so much👍🏻
Fantastic build, I really appreciate the details of the build and your reasoning for each detail. Thanks as always.
Thanks👍🏻
This is such an amazing build, I love watching the ingenuity of peoples builds but always ask myself "why" when it comes to stuffing them to the brim with features as clever as they are. The simplicity to me is what draws me to your builds.
Thank you👍🏻 I hate clutter and feel unorganized with a bunch of stuff back here👍🏻
The ball's licking Truck's Ford
This really brings into perspective to build it as you intend to use it. I'm 100% guilty of this having watched way too many videos and way too many designs of how am I going to fit everything in it when in actuality I'm like you.... 1 or 2 nights doesn't need too much or to be fancy. Great job!
👍🏻👍🏻
Great functional build. Love the thought you put into matching the install to your needs and uses.
Thank you Rory
I've been thinking about building a truck bed camper system. I appreciate how you "dummy'd" down some of your build ideas, ie the carpet isn't carpet. Knowing what other builders have used or changed out with what works better for areas of the overall build is so very helpful and yall express that it's perfectly OK to copy yalls ideas that work. Thank you and you'll be seeing my own video once my build is done along with upgraded air suspension kit on my 2014 F150.
Thanks!
Exactly what im looking to do once I can find the Topper for my 2017 Silverado. Just to do my short travels. This is a GREAT Idea…..THANK YOU
Thanks👍🏻
Detail City. Great ideas everywhere! Clear & precise on equipment. Thank you
Thank you 👍🏻
Love the simplicity of the build, for a good washroom idea try a hunters loo, its a 5 gallon bucket with a lid designed as a toilet seat, toilet paper fits on the carry handle, and they make custom heavy duty double sealed bags. (Best option for comfort, privacy and hygiene (numero dos only imo) considering you can rock a leak against a tree. When done, seal the bag, place it in a garbage bag with the rest of your trash, and keep it all stored in a trasharoo for the easiest convenience. Wish my Jeep was long enough to sleep in the back, but ive grown comfort with having separate sleeping accommodations, roof top tents seem great until you want to go for a quick rip for firewood or to a neat spot
Thank you👍🏻
This would be perfect for me, especially since I don't need to add the bed--I have always slept on the floor at home. I've been looking at RVs, but this makes so much more sense for the kind of short hiking / climbing trips I take. Thanks for the pro tips!
Thanks👍🏻👍🏻
I just started my build and I’m so excited I worked so hard to buy the truck now I gotta work harder to finish my build. Built my bed today and tomorrow I’m installing the storage system
👍🏻👍🏻
How did it go🤔
This is all i need for a nice weekend of fishing
👍🏻👍🏻
Excellent build Brian! Looking forward to seeing your continued adventures in it.
Thank you sir👍🏻
Brother, this build is sick! Love the aesthetics and clever use of space. I hope to have one like it someday! Thanks so much for sharing!
Thanks man👍🏻
I live out of my 2014 f150 5 to 6 days a week right now, decked bed system, xxl teton cot matress, set power 45qt refer, bluetti solar generator 716 watt hours, scheels foot locker for auto tools and canned goods sitting on a rubber mat to keep from sliding around, my truck is the 5.0 supercrew 36 gal tank and 6.5 or 6.7 bed. 3 go bags 1 with clothes, 1 for shower products, the misc. in the backseat. Works well for me. Do need a higher watt hr generator and panels. Figuring 2 yrs living like this to get back where I was before SITF.
👍🏻👍🏻
Fantastic build! The best I've seen in terms of simplicity and function. And looks sharp!
Thanks Rick👍🏻
Love the set up inside cab all flush organizered love the lights along the sides ,simple and that foam carpet in bed plus...👍
Thanks Roman
Good job, Brian. The truck and your equipment look great, look forward to your future videos!
👍🏻
Well done Brian! Awesome build. I am planning on doing the same minimalist layout. Thanks for the inspiration sir!
Thanks👍🏻
Well done, Brian. It looks great. I can't wait for all of your new adventures in it.
Thank you
Love the comfy carpeting and all of it. Looks awesome.
Thanks👍🏻
Love what you did with this build. Super simple, super clean. Looks pro! We'll done 👍
Thanks👍🏻👍🏻
Most excellent build. A far cry from stuff at home & walmart. That's what I had to use. Drive safe. 🤠
Thanks👍🏻
Very well thought out. I agree with you about toileting and personal hygiene - fixed plumbing is not necessary. I also agree about not cooking in the car. It's smelly and greasy and unnecessary. I love the bed and storage ideas.
Thank you!
I was wandering around UA-cam and came across your video. I have an F-250, same camper shell, same BedRug, and I have sketches for the same layout, only my bed will be on the driver's side because of how I sleep. We must be on the same wavelength!! I want a clean, minimalist setup. Years ago I built a teardrop that I love, but there are times I head out into the desert to join friends on our outdoor adventures and I don't need to drag along a trailer. Great video!
Thank you 👍🏻
Super simple and very clean. Well done, brother.
Thanks bud👍🏻👍🏻
Looks great! I saw someone else ask in the comments and your answer about the a/c when it gets nasty hot. Excited to see the solution when it’s needed. Plenty of room to stretch out the toes.
Thanks👍🏻. Yeah, a much improved a/c solution (hopefully) soon to come
Minimal, clean build that works. With the right supplies, you could easily do a week if need be. Nice, build. 👍👍
Thank you👍🏻
Man you had some good ideas. I like how everyone preps even if they aren't prepping. The truck looks awesome. Good Job! ❤️
Lol. Very true👍🏻
I like the simple stuff when camping...nice design...I'm retired and now living in the Philippines
Thank you👍🏻
To each their own regarding truck builds. I like them all whether bells and whistles or simple.
👍🏻👍🏻
I have the full Bedrug and Leer carpet in my F250 8’ bed truck conversion!
Enjoyed your content...
Thanks!
Thanks Joel👍🏻
Simple and clean build! My only "complaint" would be the goal zero, but everyone has their preference and needs, I just think you can get better for the money. Solar battery tech has come such a long way and goal zero is the dinosaur now. As long as it works for you though that's all that matters, happy camping!
Thanks. I kinda agree on the GZ being that most of these are lead acid. This particular one is Li-Ion and still not lifepo4 though. But, the inverter on it is extremely solid and puts out a solid 120 volts at full load. I also like the 30amp dc output. I have quite a few power stations and will prob swap out soon to an Ecoflow River Pro to test out, but this is cutting it for now👍🏻
Man I love what you have done with the place. Very nice and great ideas for space saving. Very cool!
Thank you👍🏻
“simplicity is the ultimate sophistication” love it ❤
Thank you👍🏻
Very nice Truck Build!! Brian I own a small Foam Fabrication company in North Carolina. You are correct about electric carving knives. For small jobs at home they are the best thing to use. I hope you enjoy your new rig!!
Thanks Steve👍🏻 good to know I was t too far off base using an electric carving knife😉
This is my dream build. Don't sound defensive about your battery setup. I honestly would have less. As long as you got water and you are dry, this is a very comfortable rig that you could easily live in.
👍🏻👍🏻
Your build is great. Super clean and very practical. I’ve never smoked, never drank, don’t have any tattoos and yet I love watching CrazyQuady
👍🏻👍🏻
I like your setup. U can still haul tools as well pull the bed if you need more room. Thanks for the tour.
Thanks👍🏻
Looks great!! Very clean looking build. Bed rug is a great idea.
👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you. One of the best builds I’ve seen for simplicity and function. Im getting ideas i want to build a setup that is easy to install and remove because i still want use my truck bed when not camping
👍🏻👍🏻
Amazing job. I take it, you have woodworking experience. I saw all the clamps hanging up in a past video. I'm learning so much from these vids.
Thanks Steve👍🏻 it’s a hobby of mine😉
My truck is similar. Same grey interior😀 tho I added very high quality turf to the floor of my 8ft truck bed. It ensures that the Bedrug does not get worn out and the turf is so thick it holds on to stuff that get put back there. It also insulates it. Being an 8ft box I had room to build an storage shelf at the front of the box about 18 inches deep. The shelf rest on the top ledge of the bed rail. It’s mostly used to store tools for work but doubles as storage for camping. My wife and I have used the truck to go to summer music festivals and avoid the $350 min per night hotel cost. Plus it’s fun.
👍🏻👍🏻
Looks great. Super clean and functional !!
Thanks Kevin👍🏻
Dude!!!! Looks great, simple and has a purpose, very very cool man love it!!!
Great job! 😎👍🏻👍🏻🔥🔥
Thanks my friend👍🏻👍🏻
Simple, clean, design. Looks good.
Thanks Johnny
What a slick job you did, love it! Everything in its place, neat and tidy
Thank you👍🏻
Great set up, simple yet ready to expand on.
Thanks James
Can’t wait to see you actually using it. Love the design
Thanks👍🏻
Awesome build, thanks for taking the time to show us .
Thank you David👍🏻
Thanks for the great video. I’ve got the same leer topper and I also have the bed rug in both of my trucks.
Thanks👍🏻
Heck YEAH! So glad I found your site! Smart , .... Is SMART ! ! ! I pushed ALL of your buttons , and hope you make many more !
Thank you👍🏻👍🏻
OK ! Here is the deal ! I'm bringing my Tacoma over to you next Monday, I want my tuck to look exactly like yours in one week. Thats ample time for you to complete the job ! I will fly into DFW the following week to pick up my truck. You must pick me up at the airport BTW . I hope this isn't going to be any problem for you ! See you Monday afternoon ! Have a great weekend ! 🤣
Hey man, I was about to call you to tell you to bring me your truck. I’ll even get some dinner cooked and some beer in the fridge for your arrival 😂👍🏻
Great minds think alike !🤔
Yes sir, it looks awesome ! I look fwd to your overnight adventures in it.
Thanks George👍🏻
I put mine on the right too. Keep it simple!
👍🏻
I've just discovered your channel today Brian, and will be watching your other vids. Thanks for covering your setup! It renews my hope of doing the same/similar with my F-150. I sort of gave up after watching others YT'ers and 99% of them have either permanent or semi-permanent camper cap builds. My issue was, like you, wanting to still be able to use the bed for hauling, etc. Your system seems to make it a breeze.
Thank you👍🏻
I really like the K.I.S.S. principle and you definitely nailed it..... Give this a shot and it may work for you but i took out the center sliding glass in the cap to make it bigger and a bike tube blown up between the cab and the bed to keep the elements out....... I weigh 195 lbs 36 waist and i can get through it if needed. (06' Dodge Ram)
Just a thought 🙂
Thanks? In these newer Fords the sliding glass on the cab is just about the same size as the cap sliding glass unfortunately
Awesome build. I found this through watching Mike the past couple of years. I can't speak as if I'm anymore organized than Mike but you really thought this one out. I don't have the carpentry skills nor am I staying out for long so I went even more simplistic and economy. Old 99 1st gen CRV real time 4wd. Rear seats pop so the backrests fold completely flat. I kinda just throw camping mat, a backpack and there's always stuff that just stays in there and I'm off. lol I would like a nice rig like this but the price of even 10 year old used trucks is out of control the past few years. I do have a 3rd gen daily driver but it's worthless because rear seats don't pop. Therefore the cargo area cannot be made completely flat.
Thanks👍🏻
Excellent I use pouches also for everything
Great minimalist setup
Thank you 👍🏻
I like that set up I really do. It’s a real good job. Thanks for the video. The only thing I would do different, but I would understand why you might not do it as it would put some more weight on your truck. I would’ve used a different canopy. I would’ve went with a smart cap. I like the negative pressure vent which prevents dust from building up in the back of your camper when you drive down Dusty Roads. I also like that it is marketed as weatherproof and not just weather resistant.. I like the fact it has small little windows or you can open up the entire side panels and of course it’s made from stainless steel so it’s strong and you can put a roof rack on top and store some significant weight. The downside to this is it is more expensive and it is heavier. But really enjoy the video. I like watching what people do.
👍🏻👍🏻
You could always put a seatbelt from the top of the rail of your truck to the bottom of your bed to keep you from Falling out of the bed like they have a big trucks
👍🏻👍🏻
Some really good idea's in your video! Been thinking about building one for a while now. I will for sure use some of your ideas on mine. Thanks for posting the video!! Look's awesome!
Thank you👍🏻
Great, clean design…. Been looking to do something for my suburban…. This is pefect. Thanks for sharing
Thank you👍🏻
Love the blanket and pillow@ looks so cozy I'm jealous
Thanks👍🏻
there's a bathroom behind every tree LOL it all looks great and very comfy.
Exactly👍🏻👍🏻
Man that build is clean and simple, I know you don’t NEED it, but man, you gotta throw a kitchen in there!
Lol. Thanks! I’m good with my Jetboil and propane stove for now 👍🏻
Great build. I'm going to use some of your ideas for my rig. Thanks a bunch
Awesome👍🏻👍🏻
Great job! Love it. Thanks for Sharing 😊💕
Thanks!
I liked your video SO much that I had to subscribe. I have watched so many of these videos to give me ideas for my Ranger, but they are all so crazy. Your awesome clever build is SO COOL !! I do not want a kitchen, shower, TV, toilet, etc. I just need a place to lie down on any future road trips so as to not waste money on hotels. Thank you for showing me your pickup.
Cheers from Montreal, Qc.
Thank you👍🏻👍🏻
We're on the same plane!! I have only what I need for max 2 nights out. Very neat setup.
Thank you👍🏻
Thanks Brian for the tour...well thought out plan.... happy adventures take care
Thanks Trey
That’s awesome you really thought it all out. Very clean looking build
Thanks👍🏻
Finally, someone who thinks like me. I too am a side sleeper and sleep on my right side. I see all the build outs with the bed on the left side and think nope. Anyway, great set up.
Thanks👍🏻
I camp like how he does except I have a porta potty. I LOVE having a campershell with a bed/porta potty in it. When I’m tired on a road trip, my dog and I park in a parking lot and take a nap. When I go camping, I just back in and that’s it. No setting up anything. The only thing I don’t like is when I go camping I feel like I’m wasting $50 a night because all I do is park my truck in a campsite. Other than that, I love camping out of the back of my truck.
👍🏻👍🏻
Sometimes less is best.
Looks top notch for solo outtings.
Thanks Richard👍🏻
Looks like a relaxing weekend of fishing here😊
👍🏻👍🏻
Thanks for your video, its always good to learn from people.
👍🏻👍🏻
Simply Perfect, hats off to ya!
Thanks Darrin👍🏻
Great build. I enjoy watching your videos. Put my camper shell on today but sure wish I had a 6.5 foot bed.
Thanks Tony👍🏻
Nice build Brian, thanks for sharing 👍
Thanks Will👍🏻
This is simple and elegant. No muss no fuss.
Thanks!
Awesome job Brian! Thanks for sharing!
Thank you👍🏻
Very good ideas you put into this build. Enjoy many times ahead in this.
Thank you👍🏻
Very simple yet practical ❤
Hey there looks like a nice clean job hope you can keep it that way. I remember truck camping back in the day (late 1970’s) in Colorado,Nebraska and Wyoming and driving on those dry and dusty back roads and even though my shell was fairly well sealed up it inevitably had a coating of dust on everything in the back of the truck. Not sure how to avoid this except to not drive on dirt roads. Cheers and good luck.
Thanks Tim👍🏻
