Hey man, your car looks really cool! I wish you luck on your journey. A tip: install wind deflector on the car windows, this makes it possible to open the windows slightly and let out the moisture (from breathing during sleep) that will condense and leave the car with a bad smell.
Thank you so much man! So inspired by your build! After rewatching your video I noticed the wind deflectors you have, so you happen to remember where you got yours?
Fellow Suzuki SX4 lover & owner, sending you so much love and light on all your journey's!! I'm also soon-to-be 30,happily single & w/o kiddos so watching your video helps me to envision my travel dreams as a potential reality and I'm so excited to keep watching your content! Thank you for making this awesome video! Bon voyage and safe travels my friend!
I'm a fellow 30 yo Suzuki SX4/ fiat 16 owner! Best car I've ever had! I'm planning to convert my SX4 in a mini camper and your video is a great start! Thanks for sharing your project
Awesome video dude I have the exact same car, same year, same color, and everything and was looking to make some of these modifications myself glad the Suzuki is getting the love it deserves!
Your Video quality is on point, you're interesting to listen to, and you have a great story/journey ahead of you. I am very excited to keep up with BMO and you!
I just found your channel from researching camper/overlanding conversion inspiration for my own SX4. Thanks for all the inspiration! I'm excited to watch the rest of your channel and follow along on your adventure! Happy Trails my friend!
Very excited for you. I think you’ll be glad you did this now instead of when you retire. I’m in Washington too. Looking forward to watching your adventure
Bmo looks amazing! This is the video I needed to see tonight. I am also approaching 30, and have talked about taking my Suzuki on a long journey for years. Started by taking the seats out a few weeks ago, but that's where the plans became plans, and it has been hard to continue. This really inspired me to get granny blueberry up and going. 😊Thank you for the great resources and inspiration. I wish you the best on your adventure!
Yay!! This is all I ever hoped for is the process of this video! I was determined when I first decided to go on a trip, but it truly wasn't until I saw M Minamoto's design that I knew this was possible! So glad I can share the same inspiration!! Bounce over to facebook and check out the Suzuki SX4 group. Lots of amazing info and some super knowledgeable people!
Loving the production quality. Looks like a solid build that'll be able to tuck into all the tight places along the way. I'm thankful to know that the entire series will have good music. The arcade fabric is definitely a cheery bright inclusion. I relish the possibility/probability of running into you down there along the way.
Really inspiring stuff. Firstly… well done choosing the go-anywhere SX4. The most cost-effective mountain goat out there. Secondly, with two small children at home I’m a stage late in gipsy life but I look forward to living vicariously through your travels. Looks like you’re in for an amazing trip. Cheers!
I love this!!! I thought about going the roof top tent route, but was way too stoked on M Minamoto’s design, had to go for it, and so glad it did! Send updates!
@@BoondockingwithBMO First update!!looll, cant figure out how to get those damn backseats out but still working on it! updates and video coming soon!:)
@@boondockingwithvincent4912 There were more clips than I actually thought there would be. I eventually just pulled it apart and had to unscrew the backs from the frame. once you get the cushions off it's pretty easy.
@@BoondockingwithBMO it's all done! no more back seats! tomorrow a good vacuum and cleaning and then going to start working on the bed frame!:) more updates to come! Cheers!
@@boondockingwithvincent4912 yesss! It’s a big step, but once you make it, the ball starts rolling! Can’t wait to hear how this goes! Good luck and have fun!
Love this!!! Thank you so so much for showing me that I can convert my Misfitsmobile hahahah. (I also have the Suzuki sx4 crossover 😉) She has around 140,000. So fingers crossed she’ll make it across the country. Enjoy your travels ☀️
found this video only because I am considering buying an SX4, but I subbed to see your journey. Good luck man. Also a PNW native, born and raised in WA. Also, you are way better off with the SX4, subaru may rule the PNW but they are not reliable. The SX4 wopuld drive circles around the 2004 forester I had.
It's so true!! Originally I was sold on Subaru, but once I started seeing all the timing belts go bad I started to reThink. Thats when a family friend showed me the SX4. A fraction of the price, cheaper to work on, and honestly more reliable. LoveLove Love my SX4
How about to work at each place like a gardener, restaurant, painting for 2 weeks e make money to keep your jorney going to throug the word. This is my goals too! :D
What I did was I bought some black plastic film rolls from amazon. I stapled this black film to the reflectix. Now people from the outside just see a complete blackout. It just looks 100% tinted from the outside. Worked great. Also, where is your spare tire now, I did not see it? Wish you all the best. The time is now, not when the time is perfect, because the perfect time never comes... My 2009 SX4 says hi to BMO.
I love that Idea! I really don't like the look of the reflecitx. Do you feel the black absorbs the heat and sun? I guess you're not really sleeping during the day, but the early sun might raise the temp a little faster? Thanks for the suggestion!
My spare tire is currently at home, atm the don't have a good place to mount it. Now that the weather is warming up I'm able to start preparing for the bumper builds. I'll be adding a swing arm over the rear hatch that will allow me to mount my spare tire, but for now, it lives at home.
@@BoondockingwithBMO The layer of reflectix helps keep both the heat and the cold out. I did notice the outside black does get hot in the sun, but that's against the window and the reflectix stops the transfer of outside temps. I splept inside in Florida during the day a few times, it does get warmer, but not like outside. I also had a curtain blocking the front from the back. I also got water drip things on the outside so the rain doesn't drop in. I just crack the windows an inch or two and get outside air. If it's not raining, I have misquito netting that I put in the windows. I have a 3 to 4 foot roll and just place it between the door and car - I shut the door on the netting, and wala, I can have the whole window open and the netting stays in place...
Hey Bro! Thank you for this video! I am JUST buying my (2008) SX4 DDiS GS 4WD and I am super excited about it. And I'm planning the same kind of adventure with it together with my girlfriend. We live in Hungary, Europe and in the next following years we would like to explore the "Alternative Silk Road" from here to the Himalayas in Nepal. Through the Balkan, Turkey, Caucasus, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan and Pakistan, through India to Nepal. From there we will hike to reach the Mount Everest base camp in high altitudes by feet. We also love trekking and mountaineering so this is also a motivation to visit these places during an expedition like this, with the SX4. So I will follow your journey very happily and I am really curious about your findings and experiences through your big trip. I wish you all the bests for this and I am really happy that I have found your video here. In case, may I ask you for your experiences and hints in the future when I will get there to start the modifications on my car? In case of this I would happily contact you on Facebook or so. Best regards, Andras from Hungary :)
LOVE this! I have the same car and i really like it. I am not planning for an epic trip like yours, but i would like to be able to sleep in my car sometimes and have a cup of coffee. Your video inspires me to not buy a van, but try this first. I would need a toilet though. 😊 And where do you keep your spare tire? Would be gruesome to have to remove everything when you have a flat.
Oh man can I come with you?!? the panamerican highway sounds sick!! I happened on this video because I'm looking at replacing my Hyundai accent - which I'd converted into a camper before driving around Australia... I called it my coffin cuz it was so small hahaha this time I buy a car, Im actually spending time to figure out which one I should buy instead of just beating the shit out of any old car that absolutely does not have the ground clearance necessary for where I'm driving :P anyways, cheers for the vid :)
I also second the post by minimoto saying have wind deflectors on the windows... I didn't use wind deflectors but got mosquito netting so I could actually sleep with my windows partially open because it gets really hot here.... Don't know if you've left yet, but if you're still planning on leaving north America this fall, don't forget that it's summer down there! and it'll be wicked hot in some places... Chile was 40+celsius when I was traveling there a few years back.... Also, what I would do next time with my car that you might want to consider: make it so that I can comfortably(ish) convert it into a sleeping arrangement without actually opening my driver side door. The flies/locusts/mosquitos are absolutely BRUTAL sometimes and I have had to wait until sun went down completely to avoid stepping out of my car into swarms of biting flies only to then be swarmed upon by mosquitos because it was now their time of day
Wtf the recommendations!! i just got this car yesterday in a last minute! :o I didn’t know it’s was great for this I wanted a mini van :o damssss the coincidence life give me AHAHA
Hey! Great work! I have the same car and I want to do the same kind of conversion. Can you send me the dimensions of the frame? I could probably figure it out but I’m not a carpenter lol.
Well, I searched this on purpose. Because due to no fault of my own, I'm being forced to live in my car. And guess what I drive? Same color except 2008. Suzette only has 79K miles and is a good girl. I keep her maintenance up. But I'm screwed. I can't do this. I can sew cushion covers but I don't see me taking out seats and cutting wood by myself. You think you can send your brother in-law to help me too? 🦋
This is hectic! I just learnt how to drive and took over my sister's 2007 SX4. I'm gonna see if I can try this without removing the back seats. maybe they could even fold backwards ? Great video thanks
Currently, I am not traveling with one, BUT in the next couple weeks to a Month, Ill be building a swing arm for the rear bumper that will hold the Spare tire, Propane, Gas, and extra odds n ends.
It is impressive! I own an sx4 myself, now you have inspired me to build something similar. I l also live in the northwest and was wonder if you won't mind meeting me where you live before October so I could get a better view of your car and compare it to mine. This would help me to get a better idea of what to do when building mine that way. Thank you for sharing your project, it is awosome,. One more question, how many miles is your car has?
That's friggin rad. I have an SX4 also and I love it. How are you finding the gas milage? And any extra strain on the engine with all the extra weight and less aero dynamics?
I didn't actually keep any of the measurements I took to build the Plywood bed frame. However, I do plan on taking the plywood frame out to seal it. When I do that Ill make sure to take the measurements and share them. I wish you luck on your build! Its the best thing I've done in a minute!!
hey dude! you got a neat setup there! I'm about to buy this car. what I wonder is what's the width of back side in full sleeping mode? wanna know if I can throw 2 person 145cm width sleeper. thanks.
Damn dude! I am so pumped I found your channel in its early growth. I just bought an '09 sx4, I am loving it and want to make some of the mods you've already done. I definitely have some questions for you. I love this idea and look forward to following along. Consider me subbed 🤜🤛. What's the best way for me to reach out with Questions?
Man, I really really appreciate this!! I'd love to help in any way I can! Shoot me a message on Instagram @boondocking.with.bmo looking forward to hearing from you!
@@BoondockingwithBMO Thank you for your answer. Are the tires 195/65 / r15 recommended by the manufacturer, do your 195/75 / r15 tires fit under the wheel arch? What would be the best tires for the highway? Can I use 195/55 / R15 tires to lower the center of gravity?
@@jankowalski-lg4zx I know nothing about any other tire sizes. I have only used the 215/75/r15 I had to do some cutting in the wheel well to make room for them in turn. Anything else I wouldn't have the slightest idea. My apologies.
What is it that attracts us to this underdog? In the UK the sx4 isn't that popular. The Audi's, BMW's, and VW's are cars of choice for ya 30 year old. I honestly don't get it. A well priced, spacious 4x4 that has a lovely 2L diesel and is reliable. I've carried super king-sized mattress and a single bedframe on my cross bars. I have a roof bag for week trips away with 2 kids. It's more fun than I remember my grand Vitara being to drive (although that is a very good looking vehicle). To others mines just some weird looking Suzuki with zero cool factor and better suited to a middle aged woman. I think it's great!
Hahahaha This is great!! Growing up everyone always had a Subaru, and over the years it became all I saw on the road, but when I started seeing one or two of these little guys in all the same places, looking just as good, I knew I wanted one. Especially after seeing the price tag. It's a no-brainer for me.
Hey man, your car looks really cool!
I wish you luck on your journey.

How is your SX4 recently? I still drive my 2008 SX4 to work.
Hey. How do you find the Suzuki for replacement parts? Easy to get?
Wtf the recommendations!! i just got this car yesterday in a last minute! :o I didn’t know it’s was great for this I wanted a mini van :o damssss the coincidence life give me AHAHA
So... you don't have a spare tire in your mobile living situation??
You make me really want to do this to my sx4
Love it man, go live your dreams. I'll see ya when you get back. :)
Hey! Great work! I have the same car and I want to do the same kind of conversion. Can you send me the dimensions of the frame? I could probably figure it out but I’m not a carpenter lol.

Same car same color but front wheel drive 😢😢😢. I wish I can make it AWD but don't know how.
But I like this car
Salut ! Ce dimensiune au roțile ? Mulțumesc
so where did you put the spare tire?
Currently, I am not traveling with one, BUT in the next couple weeks to a Month, Ill be building a swing arm for the rear bumper that will hold the Spare tire, Propane, Gas, and extra odds n ends.

Hi, congratulations on the conversion! How tall are you? do you think someone 6'3" has enough sleeping space in the SX4?
I'm 5'10'' and it's tight. I would say 6'3'' would be too tight, tho if you sleep small, I bet you could make it work.
It is impressive! I own an sx4 myself, now you have inspired me to build something similar.

what kinda mpg do ya get?

That's friggin rad. I have an SX4 also and I love it. How are you finding the gas milage? And any extra strain on the engine with all the extra weight and less aero dynamics?

Hi, great vid! I’m looking at converting my own 2008 SX4 into something similar, do you have the dimensions on the plywood frame at all? Thanks!
I didn't actually keep any of the measurements I took to build the Plywood bed frame. However, I do plan on taking the plywood frame out to seal it. When I do that Ill make sure to take the measurements and share them. I wish you luck on your build! Its the best thing I've done in a minute!!

Damn dude! I am so pumped I found your channel in its early growth. I just bought an '09 sx4, I am loving it and want to make some of the mods you've already done. I definitely have some questions for you. I love this idea and look forward to following along. Consider me subbed 🤜🤛. What's the best way for me to reach out with Questions?
Man, I really really appreciate this!! I'd love to help in any way I can! Shoot me a message on Instagram @boondocking.with.bmo looking forward to hearing from you!

Hi What's your tire size?
215/75/r15 with 15in by 7in wheels with a -6mm offset. I recommend a 0mm offset if you go this tire size.
@@BoondockingwithBMO Thank you for your answer. Are the tires 195/65 / r15 recommended by the manufacturer, do your 195/75 / r15 tires fit under the wheel arch? What would be the best tires for the highway? Can I use 195/55 / R15 tires to lower the center of gravity?
@@jankowalski-lg4zx I know nothing about any other tire sizes. I have only used the 215/75/r15 I had to do some cutting in the wheel well to make room for them in turn. Anything else I wouldn't have the slightest idea. My apologies.

What is it that attracts us to this underdog? In the UK the sx4 isn't that popular. The Audi's, BMW's, and VW's are cars of choice for ya 30 year old. I honestly don't get it. A well priced, spacious 4x4 that has a lovely 2L diesel and is reliable. I've carried super king-sized mattress and a single bedframe on my cross bars. I have a roof bag for week trips away with 2 kids. It's more fun than I remember my grand Vitara being to drive (although that is a very good looking vehicle). To others mines just some weird looking Suzuki with zero cool factor and better suited to a middle aged woman. I think it's great!
Hahahaha This is great!! Growing up everyone always had a Subaru, and over the years it became all I saw on the road, but when I started seeing one or two of these little guys in all the same places, looking just as good, I knew I wanted one. Especially after seeing the price tag. It's a no-brainer for me.
