you are a breath of fresh air in this community, instead of saying "check out this affordable thousand dollar tent that you HAVE to have" you girl are not weird, your great.
Yeah, too many channels with $60,000 truck with a $15,000 suspension, $5,000 in tires, $5,000 roof racks and tents, $5,000 in solar panels and batteries to power $3,000 in lights and a freezer.
@@jeffreypark call it the "minimalist" Van life with their built Mercedes Benz sprinter.
@@jeffreypark nonsense. Not even a king suspension costs that much. A good tent costs 500-600 dollars. Why do people make this so hard. Is this a deficit in some people’s intellect? I have no other explanation. Get a fucking tent and normal camping gear. Get a roof rack and a cargo back and stuff it in there. Then on the bed put your tools and whatever else you need. Done. No one needs all the fucking overlanding gear for a camping trip. Like a 6000lbs heavy truck with 35s. All nonsense.
The tonneau cover gives you a convenient shelf in your tent!
I agree with you: Don’t binge mod! Mod in moderation. A couple mods a month is good for the heart and soul 😀
Youre not weird, its called being responsible with your own money

I hope every1 reads this! You can make it happen and sometimes it takes some time. Stick with it and you'll have an "expensive" build in 5 years.

Also, the third mode for the Scosche jump starter/power bank is S.O.S. emergency mode.
It flashes S.O.S. in Morse Code.
Was gonna say, the slow blink looked like S.O.S

Chloe! There are a lot of us in the same boat! That’s why I love your videos, very realistic for people like me.
I had this tent . Just sold it too. This tent is pretty easy to deploy and traveled across the country with me. the bed matresses that have wheel well cut outs is Ideal for sleeping two people. awesome video.
Heck ya I can totally relate, I've been building my 4runner for over 10 years. Keep the videos coming.
This is awesome. First I was just looking for some led taillights, then all of a sudden I’m discovering channels that do camping in their Tacoma’s!
Hey chloe, i think this is the way to go not only if you are camping on a budget but if your truck is your daily driver, with all the stuff mounted on the rack (bed or roof or both) you cant really go everywhere or keep mounting and unmounting everything and everytime you are out on the street. Love your tent, got one myself and works great. Keep it up!
Another great video Chloe! used to Love my Napier truck tent for my old Canyon its lasted years and I still have it
Glad you like your TACO, I just picked one up two days ago and I love it. Any recomendations? I have a 5ft bed
I'm impressed. Especially with the monster power bank. It is a must have.

Cool gadgets Chloe! Great survival kits to have. Love your Tacoma. Enjoy 😉 your camping 🏕
I have a similar jump starter and I love it, I've never had to use it on my Tacoma, but I've helped out other people!
Yup it's come in handy
Love the ⛺️ design! Great add to your taco mod video!
I’m liking the leaf blower hack 😬. I can’t wait to go camping and enjoying the great outdoors.
Awesome additional to your Tacoma! Thanks for sharing! 🙏
great job chloe... for sure you gonna enjoy camping. thanks for sharing 👌
Using the leaf blower.....Genius! I like the way you think👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Just used my Napier truck tent this last weekend in the short bed of my Colorado. Perfect for one or two people. Very happy I made the purchase, it’s going to get a ton of use around the state here in Michigan. Will have to look at the other things you recommended.
Thanks, Chloe! I couldn’t stop laughing at the leaf blower; I’ve totally lost the battery powered inflators too but have never thought about using a leaf blower to inflate hahaha
Your best video yet
I’m enjoying watching your channel
Keep it up
Thank you young Ms. great information.
See you on the trail.
Thanks for the awesome video. Really like the car jumper. I might purchase it 🤞
Lol. I do the same with my Ryobi leaf blower. I grabbed a pvc pipe reducer and a cone shop vac attachment to get a more direct inflator. Works well for kiddie pools and rafts. Great vid.
I have a similar truck bed cover. I was wondering if I could keep it while using the tent. So I’m glad you touched on that
That’s a cool tent and budget friendly 👍🏻
I actually used a leaf blower on my channel to hack drying my Tacoma and forerunner quicker when washing it by myself 😂
Hi Chloe, the booster box’s third light option was actually an SOS morse signal sequence. A great idea and handy to have. 😊
That “slower blinking flashlight” is a SOS mode. Great video. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🇺🇸
This is so cool! Am following you now.
Great Video! Super impressed with that battery pack!! Just a tip though. You missed a step on the tent install. There are straps on the inside that allows you to cinch the whole thing up higher on the side of the truck and makes it fit a bunch better. Hope you staying safe!
Great video Chloe🤙 That’s a cool tent
That hook at the top is also great to use to hang a tent fan, when it's 90 degrees at night, air rotation is huge!
Lucky find; I just got a new truck and I'm interested in a slow overland conversion. Never heard of Scosche before. Gonna check them out, thanks for the tip.
Keep up the Great work, it’s awesome 👏
Love your channel, got a lot of great ideas from you, and I m also “weird” when doing mod
Awesome I’m just getting started with my new Tacoma
The stock Taco is a thing of beauty. My 2020 has some minor functional mods and that’s good enough for me.
I have a truck bed tent and LOVE it! My Tacoma is not built up too much, because like u just don’t have the money. But I did put a Bilstein 2 inch lift and completely covered bottom with skid plates. But honestly for where I go I don’t need anything too crazy. It gets me in some very remote and hard to get to places. Love your videos!
Great stuff, Chloe!!
Wow, awesome products, I will definitely look in to getting those for my 3rd Gen. Taco. Your truck is beautiful just like you, I love seeing girls building Taco`s, I think its supper hot, keep up the great work and looking forward to that rebuild of the damaged Taco...
Refreshing to see a "overlanding" rig that's not a $40k-60k rig. Real people have budgets. Don't shame yourself for holding back on mods due to finances. I've been working on my truck build for over a year,. AND to see someone who isnt just a digital nomad living that life. You seem normal, and thats what made this video worth watching.
She’s so sweet! I love how she promotes the other UA-camrs!

Just discovered your channel and I guess I’m here to stay😅 I like this kind of content since We’re around the same age and I experience the same dilemma when it comes to modding my rig (rip to my savings😭)
Yet another great video!
Easily the best Tacoma channel!

I too, modify my 2019 Tacoma slowly as money permits. I drive a 2019 Tacoma SR 4X4 Long Bed. With my truck being the SR (base model) it is like working with a blank canvas. I really do love my truck. Why? It meets ALL my needs. I'm looking to buy a 1980's Toyota truck 4X4 to refurbish, however these trucks, in good condition, cost almost as much as a new truck. I feel my search for a good truck at a reasonable price will be a long one. I really like your truck as well.
Nice budget friendly, build!
Great content! I'm planing on upgrading to a jeep gladiator someday and a lot of your ideas are applicable to other mid size pickups too.

Thanks for the great videos Chloe! Me and my fiance are about to pull the trigger on a 2022 Tacoma TRD Off-Road and your videos have helped tremendously! Have you gotten a chance to use the tent for camping yet? What are your thoughts on it?
The leaf blower is very innovative. Whatever makes it easy.
Great build
That power bank is a must have. Even if your not camping. Everyone who has a vehicle should have one. I bought one after I went camping with a friend and his battery died. Even for road trips in case your battery dies in the middle of no where. I have a DBPower's highest rated unit. I would also suggest a air pump and some sort of tire patch kit in case you get a puncture.
awesome video!
I was already sold on your channel(just got a 4runner) and moding it also. But if i wasnt sold before that leaf blower action 100% win XD. Thanks for the vids!
Awesome content.
You had me at "bottle opener."
Definitely need all of these camping gear for my sr5!

You so right. Others put a lot stuff on theirs truck that they don’t even use . Is better little by little and enjoying aventuré of life
That tonneau makes a nice shelf for things too
Great truck bed tent. I have one as well. IMO I didn’t want the hassle of driving around 24/7 with added weight of an RTT. Great video as always!! Stay safe. Truck is looking awesome 😄👍🏻

Great video and nice truck👍
Thanks for the blindingly good guidance you always share. Here's a coupla hopefully helpful thoughts on this topic: Of course it's important to gauge your needs and equip accordingly. Lots of extreme back-country winter activities in Northern NM, Colorado and Northern VT made the tent and air mattress concepts unworkable for me.
I bought an ARE MX bed topper, which can be equipped with a roof rack for gear (or a roof tent) and is totally blizzard/deluge/hail proof. It also provides a bit more protection from lions and tigers and bears, oh no!
Yeah, it's price point is quite a bit more than that nice very cool tent, but it also serves to provide a bit more security for gear. Some folks don't like the look of Toppings on their Taco, but imho the MX looks sharp and in addition to the other bennies mentioned adds some useful weight over the back wheels to enhance traction in the snow.
I also prefer to use memory foam type sleeping pads, a 2.75"er and a 1"er together are super comfy. Stowed they do take up more space, fer sure, HOWEVER, and I speak from experience, there's always a puncture risk and, even worse, single digit or sub-zero nights and blow up mattresses DO NOT like each other.
In very cold temps the vinyl compound in the mattress gets stiff, rigid, hard, brittle, and... shatters. Irreparably. Suddenly you're sleeping on a hard, cold deck and all your snowboard buddies with memory foam who crashed in the lot to get 1st tracks with you on a pow day are saying, "Word, dude, sux to be you."
Also, the air mattresses get annoying for some because they can be a bit like you're living on a kids' birthday party inflatable moon walker. This is especially true if you're sharing space with a partner. The foam strategy is every bit as comfy, and gives a bit more peace of mind.

I have a power adapter in the bed of my truck, this makes a lot of sense, im thikning about getting a tent that mounts above the bed, for more storage
Lol! I always use the leaf blower method on my air mattress 👍
2nd gen 🌮 owner here... living in Colorado, one gadget that is useful is a cellphone signal booster. There's a company based out of St George UT called WeBoost that makes a wide array of devices. The cheapest setup is $200 but it'll greatly improve your cell coverage. I have them in both my personal & company trucks and I was able to call 911 in a dead zone when i had pulled up to a scene of an accident.
I was watching David Odell from Odell Complete Concrete, pouring a concrete circle pad. And he mentioned the concrete pour was for a truck builder Chloe Kou. I was like I’m subscribed to her channel too

Great idea!!
Hands down, best part is the leaf blower mattress inflation!
The 3rd light setting on the power pack where it flashes at different rates is the Morse Code SOS distress signal, FYI
Awsome Chloe 👍😁
Nice! I'm subscribed to Jesse Rizo as well.
My buddy runs with a similar setup with the Rightline tent. He uses a self inflating mattress, no batteries needed.
Loved the video, I’m in a similar situation, I’m not set up for over landing, I was looking for more of the quick set up tents that are out there, did you look in to those?
Thank you! I have a tent that takes like a minute to set up and I love it! Maybe I’ll make a video on it in the future. The reason I got a truck bed tent is because I like being higher off the ground sometimes.
Super awesome !!!
I’m happy with my 6ft bed and canopy shell :)
A cot and tent that sits on top of it, is a great setup that is budget friendly way to camp. Plus you are off the ground and do not have to climb up and down.
Great video, you should get your front windows tinted to match the back.😎
I put a canopy on both my Tacos. I can Lock them which is more secure of course. I am 6’1” my bed is 5’ so yea there is that 😝. Oh and they do make air compressors that plug into your truck to blow the mattress up. They are a little slow but work great when you are out camping.
Not sure if you had the tent fully set up or was just up for display purposes but you can get rid of that sagging and buckling in the front of the tent if you pull the orange straps with the buckle on the end into the truck bed and connect it to the hooks in the bed. Pull that tight and it will make the tent tot (not saggy or wrinkly) which makes the front higher and flush with the top of the bed and easier to zip open/close
Looking good CK your looking good and your truck nice GBU and Family CK be safe always
I like to do one project at a time too. Very wise.
just ordered mattress for my short bed tacoma. hoping it fits
Don't fall into the trap thinking you need to spend tons of money to go over landing. A friend and I did the Mojave Trail in a stock 60's VW bus lol. I can't recommend doing that but, you see my point.
Really enjoy your channel.😋 ( 2002 Prerunner)
You do, though. You need essentials from GPS to first aid kit. The little things are what eats up the money. You don’t need monster tires and all that, though. That’s more a lifestyle than necessity.
Just last weekend, while out at Ocotillo, my entire camp ensemble (tent & canopy) was taco'd by the wind. May have to go to Rightline or maybe Napier.
Where do you recommend on getting floor mats for this Tacoma?
That gap all the way around and between the tent and truck looks like the perfect place for snakes, spiders, and rodents to squeeze through. SWEET DREAMS. LOL
Nice use of the leaf blower! Lol
I’m interested in the truck tent.
Which model number did you order to fit the 5ft short bed?
Have you tested the truck tent in the rain? If so, does the truck bed stay dry ?
Hey i just came across your video, AWASOME! are you still doing this camping stuff or did you move on from this scene?
Cool vid! I like the power inverter, my old one is huge! Haha! You should look into a soft topper! When you need bed space for hauling, the soft topper can be folded back just like your tonneau cover. And it’s way lighter than a hard topper. Something to look into, but keep the vids coming! Aloha!🤙🏽

I have a similar air mattress, came with a plug-in pump. Taco bed has a 110v outlet... 🤔
Yes thats me savoring everything that you add. I bought and trd non slip mat for my dash and i was exciting and proud of that hahha im weird asf
Hi...Chloe, I have a 2014 tundra, I never mod my truck. And it works fine..off or on road
Good job
Cool tent ive got a tri fold tonnue cover also, pretty cool option, roof top tents are cool, but very pricy!!
Amazon gave me one for free from vine, I cant wait to try it.
Awesome
