  • This video is a complete breakdown of my living space as I travel the US. I designed, imagined, and constructed this entire setup!
    This will be my living area as I continue my travels. Take a look at how I have optimized my ability to live in a truck.
    If you have any inclination to follow along my travels via social media I will post my tags below.

    You could always get a tarp and a couple of extension poles and attach it to the truck topper door for a canopy.

    Well done, I got the same idea with the long drawers on both sides and a full bed on top.
    That’s a good idea on the little table at the front.

    • @zach_horowitz
      @zach_horowitz  4 роки тому

      Thanks James! How has your full bed been? Do you like the full?

    • @jameschristian2966
      @jameschristian2966 4 роки тому +1

      I like it better, because I am 6ft and need to go sideways to be able to stretch out completely.
      I am needing a little access hole for putting my shoes in the bottom easier.

  • @jannezack
    @jannezack 4 роки тому +1

    Love it! I’ve been planning something like that for my truck only the bed would have to be on the other side due to a Thule bike mount that needs to be in the isle way (already mounted on the left side). That is the perfect configuration though! Thanks for sharing!
    Do you have it screwed down to the truck bed? Or do you have some other way to keep it in place (and not tipping) when the drawers are extended?

    • @zach_horowitz
      @zach_horowitz  4 роки тому

      JZ WakkiZakko No problem at all, glad I could help. The floor has a layer of plywood on it, everything is screwed in there. Nothing has moved yet!!! Hoping it stays that way. Good luck with your build!

    Thanks for the tour. I am close to retirement and bought the same model of Silverado last year and would love to do the same. Fortunately and unfortunately at the same time, I found a really good deal on a cap but it is a cab height model so I don't have as much headroom as yours but I think I could do something similar for sure. :-)

    • @zach_horowitz
      @zach_horowitz  3 роки тому

  • @michaelpellegrino3220
    @michaelpellegrino3220 4 роки тому +2

    Just subbed after watching this. I really like your simple and functional build. I too was wondering about your power setup. The new gen power stations are definitely a good solution. Just add a portable solar panel for those times that you are going to stay put a little while so you can charge without having to run the truck and burn up your fuel. I like your cap as well. I'm curious on how much room you have when laying down in your bed above you. Your bed is a little higher than most. Can you move around without hitting your knees on the roof?

    • @zach_horowitz
      @zach_horowitz  4 роки тому +2

      Thank you Michael! I appreciate it. The new gen power stations sound like a great solution. Always a possibility I may install one myself. Not planning on it, but ya never know. My bed is much higher than normal. I did this for a few reasons. It allows me to store my fridge under my sleeping area and it gives me additional storage space. I did sacrifice some head room while sleeping but for me it wasn't a major priority. Im not in my bed too often anyways. Really only in there to sleep. Repositioning isn't tough at all. Knees rarely hit the roof.

    Awesome well thought out set up. How do you lock your camper top from the inside when you sleep at night?

    • @zach_horowitz
      @zach_horowitz  4 роки тому +1

      Thanks Ed! I have rigged up something that allows me to lock form the inside. Cant "lock" the latch but the system I use essentially prevents anyone from opening the door from the outside. My tailgate locks via key fob.
