So much good! Thank you choosing us to do your build.
I'm sure I'll be back for more goodies 😌 😋 ☺️
Ultimate😂😂😂 yeah set up for the weekend worrier!
Talk about a perma-grin!! 😊
For sure.
Thanks for the walkaround and ideas.
Really awesome set up. Between the truck and the van y’all are living the dream. Also really good questions you asked and Dyllon did a great job explaining how everything works. Looking forward to seeing in it future vids.
I appreciate that. Yes, we have a blessed overlanding family kit. Dyllon did a great job. I tried to ask the questions that would help others make an informed decision.
Watching this dude fumble around trying to use stuff is hilarious.
Congratulations sick set up ! Enjoy your time outdoors!
Thank you. I appreciate that.
I need to go visit them. I'm working on the build spec for my 2016 Tundra double cab. I haven't finalized what order I will do things in. I suspect I'll do suspension (except rear springs), wheels, tires & bumper first. Then add the rear springs once I'm ready to put the cabin on. Since I will be full-time, I've decided to go with Webasto Evo 40 heater - I don't want to mess with constant propane tank changes. I may go with a floor mounted water tank to get the weight lower - and I wouldn't mind an extra 7 gallons if I can fit it in. I debated adding a water heater but I think I'll use the Gyser System shower - just hoping 95F is warm enough - guess I can test that at home.
I'll be doing my own electrical, plumbing, and cabinets - the only way I can afford to do this. I'll also do my own suspension install, along with the compressor & air plumbing.
As much as I like the Red Arc system, I'm going to do a hybrid Victron/Red Arc/Egon system - I'll use the Red Arc BCDC2040D charger and the Victron MPPT controllers so I can run my portable Solar panels in series at around 40-60v (depending on how many panels I end up with) that'll let me run about 60' of 10AWG cable with only about 2% voltage drop. The Red Arc MPPT controllers would require I run in parallel (max 30v, which is too low to run 2 panels in series) - and I'd have to keep the cable runs much shorter or go with a much bigger wire.
Save the tax and go to Tualatin, OR
Nice rig. I am in the final stages of pulling the trigger on a similar build but will be using a Jeep Gladiator Rubicon. I like to get into some rather remote and rough areas and I prefer the solid front axle, lockers front and rear and the sway bar disconnect for some of the trails I tend to seek out.
If I hadn't already had my Tacoma I was considering moving to a Gladiator. That said, I'm not much in to "True" rock crawling. So the Tacoma is great for how I plan on using it. Congrats on your future build, I'm sure you will love it.
I was unaware that Mitsalloy is available in the USA. Would they also do frame extensions? would be nice to have a 200 or armada extended.
Awesome rig!! 🔥🔥 What rear bumper are you rockin on this build? Thanks in advance for your response, much appreciated! 😀
This is a pretty great video it’s too bad it sounds like you’re in a fish tank.😂 otherwise great content!! Awesome job!
What color and type of paint is your truck? Thank you!
Big hassle to transfer that to another vehicle if you buy a new truck?
I'm not planning that. I would rather have a new engine or transmission added before moving to a new rig.
Nice rig, just got an Alu Cabin myself. Do you know if the flame king 11lb propane tanks on Amazon will fit good in the EE propane tank mount you have?
According to their website it shows flame king will work. ua-cam.com/video/PfVIhzriCTU/v-deo.html
@21:55 In case you think he'll breakdown the cost here, save your time. The cost won't be revealed until a future video.
Maybe a bit of grace from you? After all, I'm doing this for free, and my cost breakdown video is the most authentic you will find on YT.
@@seandawnvantures2001 It cost me 21 minutes and 55 seconds that I won't get back.
Nice build! What size fridge are you running?
Thank you. 55l is the fridge.
I’ve been looking for a fridge that will still let me have the goose gear system with the planks across the middle for someone else to sleep. Do you think that your fridge would still allow the planks to fit flush across? If so what fridge is that. Thank you for the content
I have the Dometic 55, and the Goose Gear platform will fit over it.
@@seandawnvantures2001 Sir thank you for the response!
11lb propane last alot longer than 2 or 3 nights
For sure. After using it for a bit, I realize how it sips propane.
And that would be around 11000$ if I'm not mistaken...or 15.000$
🙂You will have to wait for the video, there are several things not easy to see, like upgraded power brakes.
This is pushing $30k if not more with all the add-ons
Which location did you get all your rig worked on at ?
Issaquah
beautiful build. can you fit a second solar panel up there ?
Thank you. Yes, with a 3rd cross bar, I could mount another panel in front.
@@seandawnvantures2001 thank you for the response! i amm looking to order the canopy camper very soon, and have been considering getting 2 of the panels. only downside is no room for other storage. has one panel been sufficient for you so far?
@@jhelie4732 Yes, so far, it's been just fine paired with the Redarc system. We just got back from a weekend trip in the PNW where it poured and we never had a power issue. I do typically take a Jackery 1,000 which I use to power my Starlink. If you want to see more of our unedited stuff like this, check out our IG page at seandawnvantures. I will typically story stuff like power and other thing related to ownership.
@@seandawnvantures2001 thanks i will give you a follow! and i was planning to get the complete redarc system as well. just going to decide my solar panels now!
@@jhelie4732 Awesome! I can't wait to see how your buildout comes out.
i noticed these Alu Cab Canopy Campers...are on 5 ft bed mid size pick ups. Will they 'fit' on a Full size ( 5 ft. bed )..Tundra Crewmax?? cheers from Canada!
It's my understanding that they have that option for the Tundra.
@@seandawnvantures2001 ..encouraging to know. considering an Alu CAB!! (.but i admit...i do like Hard sided pop up walls...)..i feel more Secure in it..& a better deterrent..on wind noise! no flapping.... Cheers!
How do you keep water from freezing.
It's garage kept. When camping, I just leave the heater on.
Cool units. I have one on order. Only problem with this video. The dweeb that bought this one!😂
Congratulations, I'm sure you will love it!
