    Hi Dylan
    Just saw a couple of your videos, so I subscribed . I see your subscribers list is almost at 1,000! Congratulations! this is truly an awesome achievement with such a short time being on UA-cam! Keep up the good work. Most people don't realize how difficult it is to film and edit these videos, and you're doing an awesome job on both of them! I would say your next step is to open a paypal or patreon account so people can help support you on your adventures. Anyway, congratulations on a cool channel, and I look forward to seeing your next adventure!

    What did you use for insulation on the softopper? I may try that. I have a 6ft bed Colorado and use the same setup you have. I have 12V blanket that keeps my really toasty at night, I use a $200 600W power station that powers the blanket and kettle for that first cup of coffee. Liked the video, subbed.

    At that point it seems like the heater is a waste if you got the sleeping bag. especially since because of carbon monoxide you'd have to ventilate the soft top which will lose more heat.
