That’s what we did. We would pack all camping gear in totes and milk crates. After each trip- replenish what was used so that it was easy to throw everything in the truck for the next trip. 🥰
I kinda dig it!
That would be perfect for a young couple wanting a small scale rig for remote adventures. Definitely more room than I thought in there.
Ha ha thoughts what we got it for 😊
@@isaacturnerit no doubt, we can't wait to watch your adventures.
Isaac, not everyone, especially us older folk, don't understand some of the modern lingo, such as "rad", "super rad", etc. So what does rad mean? Just trying to keep up. Love your videos, especially one's with Jaylena & beautiful Ember. Merry Christmas! 🎄 🌟
@@par0104....it means ....good ... awesome.....very nice ......short for radical....63 here so I don't get some lingo either lol 😂
Get you a nice pop-up screen tent make it your kitchen and living space outside
Thank you have looking at this camper.
I would like separate videos!! I have been sold but was trying to figure out which one to get. You answered so many if my ?
I part time live Tennessee & live on an Island off California. So don’t need a truck here plus can’t have anyone on the island.
So you answered most of my ?
I am very greatly you did this total discussion about why !!!
Thanks again looking forward to your updates on the build out👏👏🥰🤗
Another nice show and tell. I hope the camper people appreciate your videos on their camping gear. Most of us would never know about the features available or what these campers can do! Have a wonderful Christmas with the fam!
Ahhh thanks for watching
Appreciate your commentary.😅
I wasn't thinking there was that much room! I REALLY love the idea that you can stealth camp in there. That's a huge plus for me. plus you still have your daily driver! I really like this entire rig Isaac. Wanna trade for a half completed skoolie that comes with everything to finish it ?? 😉😂🙃
Ha ha ha way more room than most people think
Great choice Isaac -love all the reasons why -again agree with you about quality in all around components-fans, unfortunately in my option as well the inside materials resemble the old camper decor materials which looks dated and cheap -don’t like the cabinets at all specifically the old style hinges and door style -could be more sleek and modern with nicer countertops -that’s why I’m excited if come up with something like sliding cabinet doors saves space rather than open up -your ‘laundry cubby could’ve held the batteries instead of taking all that upper reachable space for basic kitchen storage-could you do a hinged flip up baby proof wall for the upper bed for little Ember ? Anyways so happy for ya looks like a great unit for your all around rig and purposes -could be a mini indoor cabin for your guests if needed in the ‘storage bay ‘ without having to build or take over your studio area when it’s off season times -less weight carried around ? Just ideas -love your developments on your channels too ❤🎉😊
hugs to the fam
Thanks for watching!
Isaac I think you did the right thing buying the camper and the upgrades that you are going to incorporate sound like a good idea. It will meet your requirements and not add much weight.
Thanks for watching :)
Great video. Even though I'm not going to build out a camper or a bus, I think this would make a fun series to show all the upgrades you decide on. Thanks!
Thank you for watching
I love the tote idea. Just move them to the shop. Definitely would want the fridge.
Got one coming!
Looking forward to see your ideas. Do video per project. . By the way you cracked me up going through the middle of each puddle without knowing it could have deeper ruts 😂 Merry Christmas 🎅 🎄 ❤️
Ha ha ha merry Christmas
Isaac, you can get a Max Air fan cover. We have 2 on our trailer and one time while driving through town, on the side of the highway I found one that flew off the top of someone's trailer. I guess they never checked to see if it was screwed down tight and off it went so I picked it up and we have an extra one. You can leave them on rain or shine. Check into that. You can also get a portable kitchen you might be able to set up when camping and take it out when you're done. Just some ideas. Merry Christmas to you and your family.
Really I’ll look into it!
Have a wonderful day you and yours. Heavenly. Father Bless. All of you. For all your days.
It will be fun for you all with this and the house. Great times ahead.
Fosho!!!
Hey issac, thanks for the tour, reaally like the concept, long time ago i had a int 4x4 with A cabover camper, went campingalot at lower gila River, hell of a road to get in there for extended stays id unload the camper, didnt have a frige so had to go to town about every 4 days to get ice in the summer sure was easier drivin the truck to town without the camper not to mention the gas milage. Then also with that big camper off you were free to do some 4wheelin and exploring without tearing up the camper really has some advantages,then you get home take the camper off your back to your daily driver and hauling workhorse! Hope youall have a beautiful christmas ,give ember a peck on the cheek!❤❤❤
My opinion do both. Do one with all the how to items and do each one separately. So any one has a choice
Thanks for watching!
You are welcome. You showed up. Not accident. I have been looking at trucks. I am a truck person. Not cars. Also at camp over campers. My uncle had one when i was a kid. I did not know they existed. Any more. Saw 2 of them on road. They coming back. Today saw your vedio. Keep it up. Others will tune in too. Its will be a cheaper way to live. Cant afford houses. People ketching on
@@theresahaws9827 wow awesome! Thanks for letting me know that
Good tour, advice, and plan. I searched for a used Toyota 4X4 and struck out so far. Still looking. We have Ford F150 & F350 crew cab 8'bed. I'm thinking about replacing the F150 w/a Toy 4X4 and adding a camper on the back. We have a trailer though it would be nice not to pull it. The 4X4 is my goal to go off road. Thanks Isaac!
Ayy those fords are great!
Great tour Isaac, I enjoy watching all your videos no matter what you do. ❤
Thanks for watching!
We are jealous can’t wait to finally get our overlanding rig on the road!!!
Merry Christmas Eve homies!
@@isaacturnerit merry Christmas Eve!!!
The problem is the canvas, will eventually dryrot. You will get a lot use out of it. 👍👍👍
These things have been around since the 70s
The canvas is made of fiber reinforced pvc. It takes a couple decades for the uv to break it down.
Merry Christmas to one of most favorite Families on the tube . Love U Guys. Happy Safe n Blessed New Year To Ya'll Always. Mucho Love from your friend in Michigan Tam ❤️ ♥️ 💕. P.s. love the camper truck
Merry Christmas everyone :)
The rollover couch and the thermal pack seem to be quite expensive. I think I would leave them out if I was on a tight budget. There are less expensive ways to do the stove and the heating. I like the base unit, though, for the price it is at. Thanks for the helpful video.
Thanks for sharing man. Great ideas and looking forward to your future mods
Thanks for watching!
Merry Christmas to you all. Nice rig for sure. Roomy looks comfy too.
Merry Christmas!
Great video, I'm thinking seriously about purchasing a 4 wheel camper for my 2014 Ram 1500 and really like what you've done and what your planning. I'm 6'3" and are a little concerned with interior height and bed length. I will need to see them and get a feel for it. Thanks and I look forward to seeing the mods.
It is a nice unit but still a lot of money for the unit. Other than standing up and the space for the family, I don't see a lot of advantages over a good truck cap with a 6" raised for a single guy or two people camping. Especially, if you are just basically sleeping in it. The daily driver is a good point. I had an 8' bed and I loved the cap to haul materials inside in bad weather. But then I never built it out. A cooler, air mattress and some curtains and I was good to go.
On the cook top area, I would put a shelf that folds down or attaches to the side to give more working counter.
Good video with good reasoning for your needs.
Thanks for watching! You could always go with a used one too!
You are correct but I guess at this stage of my life the topper just fits my needs better. It is all about choices and needs in everything. Here in Ohio, we are mainly a seasonal camping. This could never nor do I ever plan to camp on the colder months. Glad this is working for you and being open to other views. Hope you all had a great Christmas.
@@feathers352 we did! Have a rad holidays!
Love it perfect for you guys one concern l have does were the shovel and axe have a lock not me thinking l would have to bring them inside while l sleep love watching you guys but nope l dont camp 😂😂
Got a lock!
Couldn't you put together a portable sink/water tank with a hand or foot pump? I would like to see that. I've seen other people use a portable 12v fridge/cooler on the shelf. That's all you would need for a full kitchen.
Hey Issac, that’s pretty nice. Enough space for you and the fam. ❤❤
Def!
I was just wondering if there would be a way to put a shower in there my idea is making a box out off wood waterproofing it installing everything and then covering the top with fabric and attaching it to the top so that once you expand the top the showers top expands with it and is still waterproof. I just want to hear if this is possible?😊
Merry Christmas Issac,Jaylena and sweet Ember. Have a wonderful day. Love to you all.❤️❤️
Merry Christmas!
That's pretty nice! Now you can get to more remote camping areas. 👍
Def!!
Wow I love that thing Isaac, suuuuper cool, SCORE, great overview thank you.
Thanks yo! Love it so far
It is a very nice camper Isaac. Great choice. Have fun! ❤
Thank you for watching
Good points, dude. The FWC folks should take notes, IMHO.
Maybe I’ll try making one some day :)
@@isaacturnerit Sounds like a plan. 😎 Marry Christmas!
Look at her!! Beautiful brother! Merry Christmas times ❤
💗💗
Merry Christmas ! You’ll have a lot of fun in this rig!
Merry Christmas!!
do a series so you can go in depth for the DYIer
Awesome vid. I'm looking at the Hawk and Raven for a Ram with a 5'7" bed. How long is the bed in your Tundra?
6.5ft bed :)
Loving the content lately! How tall is your setup altogether? I have an 06 Tundra too but wondering if I'll still fit in my garage 😬 probably not but I can dream
Ha ha thanks! And great truck! I can’t fit in my garage!
Thanks for sharing awesome review of your camper i love it .
Thanks for watching
'Hmmmm I see lots of videos coming;;;but just can't get the bus style builds out ;;;;lol;;;;like that little thing;;;;the only problem I have is that I can't fit one on me old tricycle;;;; so I will just wish you and your two girls a very MERRY MERRY CHRISTMAS
Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas to you and your family! 🎄 🙋♀️🇨🇦💜
Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas to lovely family 👍🙏❤️❤️❤️
Merry Christmas Eve!
How easy is it to raise it up? Is it easy to get inside it? Where are the Jack's stored when its on the truck?
Honestly it’s not bad. Jacks are in my garage
@@isaacturnerit thank you. Is there a place to store the Jack's when traveling? I'd want them w me just in case I had to take the camper off when away. I bet your getting better gas mileage than the big bus.
Great video Isaac! Merry Christmas to you, Jaylena and Ember Wild!❤️❤️❤️✨🙏🏼👍🏼👍🏼✌🏼🎄❤️🐱🐱❤️
Merry Christmas!
Thank you!✨💕
Great video!
Thanks yo!
Love it..Merry Christmas to all
Merry Christmas!!
Happy Holidays to your family from mine!!
Happy holidays!
Hey…wondering what that stainless piece is in corner next to the stove? My Hawk doesn’t have that. Or atleast I don’t see it since I have a fridge.
How does the 4.7 do with the weight? I’m wanting to find a 2007+ with 5.7 but they are not cheap.
What about Composting toilets and an outdoor Kitchen and Shower?
Adding stuff! I just wanted to do a tour before I start building on it!
This is cool, Issac👍👍👍👍
Thanks yo!
Merry Christmas! 🎄
Merry Christmas!
Nice camper!!!😊🎉❤
Thank you!
I think you should break up the videos for anyone who needs a quide on how to do it themselves. You're so good at explaining things and it would be more beneficial to a viewer doing it for the first time. I guess it would also depend if you would have enough to film for each segment. In the end, do what is best for you.
Wishing you, Jaylena and Ember Wild a very Merry Christmas!! ❤
Great tips! Thank you!
Cool camper
Thank ya!
How does the tundra handle the weight? Looking at the same exact setup for my 2006
what happens when it snows ? , does the snow crush the pop top ?

I will keep an eye out for the new video series "WATCH ME PIMP MY RIDE" with Isaac Turner!
Swag bro
Following your build.
Thanks yo
Any roof alignment issues? Thinking about windy days and possibly bending the struts
Not yet so far
How are they for holding heat? I like winter camping
So far great!
@@isaacturneritthere not alot of square footage to heat so I would guess it wouldn't be hard to keep warm, in the summer I'd obviosly would be looking to do the opposite, I have a 2023 Chevy Silverado 1500 so I have to look into what my truck can handle weight wise, thanks for the response.
@@TonyRIKKIthe camper has r5 insulation in the ceiling and hard sides only. The floor pack, bunk area and soft sides are not insulated. The arctic pack addresses the windows and soft side only. A furnace will make it warm but drafty because of the thermal bridging. I have camped in my hawk over 400 nights in Temps as low as teens to 100s. These campers perform best in mild temps.
Merry ChristMas🌲🌲🌲⛄⛄⛄💖
Merry Christmas
Need to check out fishing with Becca
I watch her!
How is 17500 budget?
What size bed is that?
King on top twin on bottom
Hi! I enjoyed your video. I went month to month on my apartment because I’m intending to get a truck and camper and live in it while I travel looking for a new place to settle in and call home. Can I really get a truck for $7,000??
One hundred percent I would recommend an older tundra!
@@isaacturnerit Thank you! I’ll look into one!
Maybe install hydraulics and drop the truck when needed. lol What a great camper!
They make them with hydraulic jacks now!
@@isaacturnerit but isn't that only to raise? You would want something to drop the truck and to open and secure the clamps. We had a 4way hydraulic drop on our car. I'm just thinking that would be great for your situation. 🙂
So no more building buses?
Not at the moment. Need a break
Issac did you take that kitten moewing in the video home??
I didn’t even hear it!!
👌
👍
budget??

GOOD MORNING BEAST ISAAC JAYLENA CANADA ONTARIO UA-cam VIDEO MISSISSAUGA TRANSIT 🇨🇦🇨🇦☃️☃️🎅🎅❄️❄️🎄
Morning!
I personally would not pick this kind of camper. There is no personality and it is just ugly. I am curious what you do with this.
Fosho I feel that!
He camps in it
