I would use the tied own hardware where the bolts come inside to mount a shelf for both sides. Just use bolts long enough to secure the shelving then you could put the AC up there and be able to keep stuff off the floor.
You should get a cot to put that sleeping pad on. That way you can be off the floor, have room for storage underneath where you sleep, and possibly have somewhere to sit while you're in the camper. I've already got mine all planned out. Hey, how much space is there between the floor and ceiling at the very front of the camper where it slopes down? It looks like about 24 inches. I'm asking because I still haven't decided which 12 volt fridge/freezer I'm going to get. I want to be able to have it all the way at the front, but still be able to open the doors on top. Will you measure it when you get a chance and hit me back? I liked and subscribed
Are you still able to pull the covers on your outside stash bins on your deck system? Thanks for your videos. BTW, insulating the exhaust hose on your eco flow should make a huge difference.
I wonder if anyone has mounted one of their 5' x 6' blinds into the back of a truck or onto a trailer? You could actually stand up in it. They could make a tall version with the camper windows with the screens, the vents, and accessory cord port. Just eliminate the hunting windows, especially at the front end. I would also imagine the hunting blind version on a trailer could serve as a camper AND a portable blind. One concern would be the type of glass at the front window, in case a flying rock hits it. Just my thoughts.
That’s a good idea! I haven’t heard of anyone doing that but it would give you the ability to stand up in it. I’m not sure if either of their blind models are long enough to lie down in however
about 5 years ago this con was going around. this crap may last a year . the foam is weak So let the bedliner crack . look at all the bs spam you can get real hand-laid fiberglass pods that can last a 100 years for less AND LIGTER. When this crap comes into the shops. though is how big a fool pays for this You can get glue and go also trailtop pods real fiberglass foam for less COST AND WEAGHT. t5 years ago this con . What would change It costs under $400 to build and $2000 to start you see no one other than these ### doing it
@@ronisom1714 it seems like it will be better insulated than a Topper so it's warmer and if you are at a noisy truck stop or Campground it will be quieter inside and it seems like it's nice and waterproof

No, you can’t get to the stash bins with the hitchhiker installed.
@@powerstrokemaintenance Thanks
Nice

What happens if someone closes your tailgate on you...?
Nothing. I latch and lock my tailgate when it’s open
seems too small, confined and limited as opposed to a topper.
Depends what your priorities are
Poly what?
Poly urea

I don’t follow
Horrible video unless u need a lesson on tiedowns!
I don’t follow 😂
He clearly only watched about the first minute.
Great concept, only issue is it looks terrible. Also, how is this better than my topper?
Ya it certainly isn’t a looker 😂

@@ronisom1714 this is easily much more affordable than a topper camper
