    Your the second person I’ve seen retro-fit their Jeep as a year round Mobil home. Out of all the vehicles to choose from as far as turning into a Mobil home, the Jeep is probably the most difficult but also one of the best in my opinion. You really can’t beat the compact size and the off-road capabilities of a good Jeep. Your set up is very similar to the other person I was talking about except he doesn’t have a bed or any sleeping quarters inside the Jeep itself. He solely uses a roof tent. I think when it comes to living out of a Jeep you absolutely must have a roof tent. I just don’t seen any other way around it especially when it comes to comfort. It’s pretty amazing that you were able to squeeze a bed inside the cabin of your vehicle considering how tall you are. Overall I’m extremely impressed with your build and you definitely have everything you need. Great video and I look forward to seeing the next one! Cheers!

    Very interesting setup, my compliments to your creativity. We travel with an ARB fridge, powered during movement via DC from the vehicle and when parked AC from a lithium power bank with attached solar panels. On a full charge, the power bank will run our ARB (I think we have the 50qt) for about 24hrs. During movement, we charge the power bank from an AC port in our jeep. One thing on your fridge and I'm saying this because it was hard to tell from the video; you have to keep the side fan ports clear so we're very careful when we stack gear around it. Don't want it over heating. While we saw the propane for your heater, it wasn't clear if you use the small bottles for your stove as well. If you have space, you can get a small 5lb cylinder or an 8lb slimmer but tall cylinder (I saw those in an off road magazine) and then a long connector hose. Will save you money in the end not having to buy those small cylinders. Agree with you on water, but we always use a popular and expensive water filter. I am curious about everything you have. We found that after a week on the road we had over packed. When we had a chance we ditched half of the kitchen stuff and half of the stuff like shoes, boots, etc., that we thought we needed but didn't. Now, we are not full time as you, so our clothing load is adjusted by climate but we found on a recent three month trip from FL to AK and back that we basically stuck to four sets of clothing each. Did you upgrade the jeep's suspension when you added the roof rack, tent,, etc? Travel safe

      @@am_i_sam_i_am not sure what you are arguing because the entire point of the comment was that calling a "JK" old makes me feel old. You are proving my point. The only thing I got wrong was it was his uncle not his dad. He said, "when I was a kid my uncle had an old 2 door JK". Comment had nothing to do with his age, his uncle's age, who owned the car, etc.... Its as simple as this - "JK" and "old" dont belong in the same sentence and when something that has only been around for 13 years is considered old and I've been around for triple that it makes me feel old. Not confusing. Pretty sure most adult Jeep owners would agree with my tongue in cheek statement.

    But, that's not how your battery works. It's more durable and will recover better, but if it's dead, it's dead. If you don't have power for lights, it's not going to magically have power to start. Lol

    Yo can't the propane heater build up carbon monoxide in a closed space
    *edit
    I did a little bit of research, there are a couple of videos testing this and it wasn't an issue in either a tent or a well ventilated rv. I didn't see a test for a more confined space but people commented pointing out he uses the car heater in the car, not the little buddy, so it's a moot point!

    • @CWafflin
      @CWafflin 4 роки тому

      Thats what I thought too but he said he mostly uses the heater for when he's in the tent which has plenty of ventilation. Im sure he's used it inside the car too since he installed that vent thing for his window.
