This incredible truck camper was built to fit into the lives of Becca & Jason perfectly & it couldn't be any cooler! Adventure loving Jason lived in his Jeep when he met Becca, who decided she wanted to give life on the road a chance, but felt like they needed a bit more space. Enter their awesome truck camper, "Yld."
Yld features a functional kitchen with a deep sink, a sliding pantry & closet, a hidden indoor shower, a California King sized bed, & an ingenious electrical system. On the roof of their camper is a wapping 2,200 watts of solar panels built using a layered, slide out, electrical system. From their epic use of space, to their massive battery system, this truck camper has it all.

I’ve never seen a truck camper so we’ll organized and so gorgeous! I really like this. Fantastic job!
Especially with young people involved.
It's amazing to see what all you managed to fit into that little pickup camper.
The best part of this video is the dog being silly on the bed and they are oblivious. lol
"Dog Park Tour Bus" - love that quote.
Cute couple and extremely well thought out and designed camper! Love the pop-out stove top, and that so many things are controlled by the phone. It's a smart house compressed into a camper! Thanks for a great tour!
Absolutely beautiful.
I think this is a very smart layout and efficient use of the space. They put a lot of thought into this and it really shows.
I been building tiny homes, van homes etc for years. This is impressive, i give them props for this. Youngsters being active is also nice to see.
We love the layout too! Becca & Jason nailed this design and build. 😊
So compact, but perfectly built tiny home on wheels ❤ This has "everything" you need in such a small space! Well done!!!👏👏👏
Here from the great Truck Camper Magazine article. You two and your camper are incredible! Some of your genius ideas are sure to be adopted by the industry.
This is like the Swiss Army knife of truck campers. They have thought of every single thing!
All of the above and love the dog that looks like he is having a party.
You both did such an amazing job designing it, love it!
Great build, amazing layout, lots or thought went into this. Nice, clean and functional. Enjoy your travels😊🌍🙏
Stunning built. Weldone. One of the neatest I have ever seen. Love your pegboard
Anytime i can watch r. v. r's experiences, the more i learn. Thank you to you!
Can’t believe this couple built this van. Amazing. Best wishes on your adventures.
Super impressive guys, hats-off to you both.
Best SetUp!! EFFECIENT. 🖤💜💙💚💙💜🖤
This build displays so much talent. Kudos to you both. Peace - John
Great build. Everything needed is there, and don't looked cramped.
The sliding solar panels are genius. Great build!
La la la love. ❤ Thank you for sharing your build.
This is a great build! Congratulations and safe travels!
Very well done. Well thought out and great execution.
Impressive build! Well done.
Absolutely incredible. Wishing yall safe travels and God bless you both
This sure looks like a Total Composite camper (and a very well executed built up).
Thank you for this video.
Beautiful!!!!!
Great mature young couple. Proud to have seen your channel.
Very ingenious use of space
What a creative build. Well done on your decor. Watching from Dublin Ireland 🍀💚💚😺💚🍀🍀😺
All that good stuff heh ! Very nice camper guys. Congrats.
Awesome video Great work!
Love your camper and you guys are such lovely people!! All the best for lots of amazing adventures!!💛😊
really nicely organized and sleek looking
Awesome design
So beautiful
Impressive build! Safe travels.
I was at the HEB in Buda Texas this morning and swore I saw this camper parked there. It looked awesome, by the time I walked out of HEB it was gone !!! Sure wanted to see it up close !!!
Excellent design and tech utilization
This is genius absolutely so practical and awesome for you as traveling bravo guys
This is not your average truck camper, to say the least. Some very interesting design and tech details. Pretty smart in various senses of the word!
The truck camper is so amazing 👏 😍.
Wow, you guys thought of everything!
that is a cool build. it look's great. i like all the tech in it.
Great build
That is a mega build really smart
What an amazing build, an such a beautiful couple. ❤ Peace 😊
Very impressive.
This is so nice.
Great video guys, thanks!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Impressed by how the kitchen and the bathroom is all compacted in the same space
Ooo good job 👏
Great Segway, making a lot of smoothies after using the compost toilet.
This build is so cool. The track system you guys added is amazing, and the lazy susan idea is great! I love the sleek design. You obviously put a lot of thought into this build. Very impressive.👍🏽🥰
Ohhhhh this thing is sweet !!!!!!!!!!
very good your videos. I'm building a camper and the information is very important.
I cant believe how roomy and airy this seems!!
It's a masterpiece.
(And the couple speak in normal voices - bonus!)
Grate job enjoy. And good luck
Finally, people that understand that every extra pound of weight is a detriment. Extra weight leads to worse gas mileage, faster tire wear, more wear and tear on the engine which ends up costing more money. Good job guys.
Fisher & Paykel offers a single drawer dishwasher that only uses 6.85 liters of water per cycle, Bosch's German website has several countertop, single drawer, or slim dishwashers that again use less than 8 liters for a full cycle, it is impossible to hand wash a full load of dishes with such little water and your dishes are truly sanitized.
I want to congradulate you on the work you have done on your camper. I have a question about the oval burner . Can you tell me the make and model number.
Wow!!! Top notch you guys can start a company making these! Well thought out, with quality interior. Arctic Ternd door and windows? Looks like Total Composites Black Bear shell.
I would really like to know what cameras they use on the outside of the rig. I have struggled to find the right thing that can handle highway speeds and weather.
Great build and I hope she is feeling better, she was sniffing thru the video and sounded tired.
I love this build! I would definitely like to have an adventure vehicle like this one!! As a smart-home enthusiast I’m wondering; For your floodlights, did you connect your truck’s aux switches to an esp32, so you can also control certain things with the aux switches as well as the app? As I’d say that’s simpler when driving?
Great setup with all the automation, however, most of us would want a bit more space. I always wanted to build a cabover box truck but we ended up towing a 20' camper which is great to unhook and make day trips or even tent camp if we choose. The truck has a hotspot in the computer set up so we can watch and control things from the truck.
Thanks for watching Kenneth! I can see how a family might want more space, but for the 2 of us and our dog this camper is perfect! We opted for the 8ft truck bed and with the tall ceilings on this camper it feels plenty roomy for us.
, Talking about being afraid of running out of water when you have 30 something gallons I think you said. I use a spray bottle lol a 32 ounce spray bottle one has dish soap and water in it, the other one has clean water and just a little bit of white vinegar. It’s just me but doing my dishes with those spray bottles last month lol
So many people operate with less but with just the 2 of us with our dog we drink almost 75% of our water every week! We used to have 32 gallons in our last build and now have a 20 gallon tank with a 5 gallon backup that we rarely use!
Very impressive! Especially since you've done it on an F150 platform AND that you've really maximized your solar intake. One suggestion I have is to ditch overuse of the word "like" during your narrative; it's somewhat annoying.
that wins for truck builds,and Ive looked at a lot lately
The combo kitchen/bathroom turned me off at first, but the longer I watched, the more I liked this buildout.
Not having a proper wet bath is definitely not for everyone, but the extra space and storage space we have was worth it for us!
Hi I like your camper.i am sure it's hard living in a small space and sometimes privacy is needed. I wish the best . One comment is the air draft in the front given the top is not meeting the truck top, have you thought about adding wind deflectors or maybe a slide out storage compartment to fill the gap ,I bet it would increase gas mileage. Safe travels
Thanks for watching Paul! It's not something we've felt we needed, but not a bad idea at all.
Please provide a link to the EHV shown in the kitchen segment. Thanks in advance.
Brilliantly designed! I'm curious about the brand of the toilet. I didn't hear you say what it was or see anything about in the description. Thanks! : )
Had the same question. Seems it's the ogo toiliet.
I greatly admire your attention to detail in planning and executing on your build. I'm in the planning stage of my own build using the same platform, 22 F-150 RCLB HDPP. Before seeing this video, I'd not seen any using this vehicle. Great job with your new home and hope to see you on the road someday! Do you have any build videos or posts somewhere? I'm always eager to learn and improve my plan. Best Wishes! PS. Curious how your camper affected MPG.
I’ve got a similar thing going in a 21 f-150 Powerboost. Currently, I think the plan is to keep the battery system small and recharge it using the hybrid power train.
You have an awesome build! Very organized with lots of cool features! I live in Wisconsin. What part of Wisconsin are you from? Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for watching Karen! We're from the Waukesha area!
The shower/bathroom setup is a no go.. but this little setup would be good for a weekend or day trip.
Thanks for watching! A camper without a divided wet bath is definitely not for everyone, but we love the extra space we get inside in exchange! Plus we love the extra workouts we get when we go to the gym for our showers :)
very nice quality build. would love to know more about the manufacturing techniques. dont know how you do all this and inc a dog in that space
Throw pillows stuffed with clothes...Ingenious !!
Where do you find all the components to make the structure of the slide in?
beautiful! but how lightweight is it???
Who makes that little heat recovery vent? It’s brilliant.
Lunos
I would like to know more about the mister faucet please.
Thanks for watching! The mister is a nozzle attachment for the faucet and it's from a company called "Altered Company"
Which tiles are used in the bathroom in the motor home?
Did he do all the coding for the esp32 micro processors ? Or is there an off the shelf option that he used
Thanks for watching! Yes, Jason did all the coding for the micro processors himself 👍
Well done! I take it that this is a mini-split A/C? What is the brand and are you running it on 110VAC?
Thanks for watching Nicholas! Yes, it's a Gree Comfort mini split (the smallest residential one we could find) and we're running it on 110VAC
Forget home is where the heart is, home is where you hang your coat, no way, everyone knows deep down that home is where you poop!
I assume your camper shell is that kit that you can buy from a company in Canada? I can't remember their name but it looks exactly like what they sell
Yes you are correct. It’s a total Composites shell
Can we get the name?
@@inspirecreateandnevergiveu7683 It's a shell from Total Composites
what is the brand name of that wall mounted air circulator she used in place of maxi air fan
It's a Lunos EGO ERV-we cut out the power supply to run it on 12v directly and hooked up the control board to a computer so we can adjust it from our phone 👍
Hi, nice layout !! Question, what is the name of the Air circulator ?
Lunos EGO ERV, we cut out the power supply to run it on 12v directly and hooked up the control board to a computer so we can adjust it from our phone
Oh nice, this is really helpful 🙂
00:57... What's the name of the air circulating unit? Curious about that single burner as well. Please share links?
Lunos EGO
How much did the final project weigh in at
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🎉
Very well designed for the intended purpose.
It doesn't look like the camper is ever removed - while that would be possible, it has no jacks, for instance. Why keep the pickup box, instead of removing the box to save weight and provide more space?
Thanks for watching Brian! We do have jacks for the camper actually, we just remove them when we hit the road from our home base in Wisconsin. That way we have a fully functioning vehicle to drive around when we're back for the holidays with our families. A flatbed truck camper was something we strongly considered before starting this build so definitely pros to going that route as well 👍
what are the walls made of?
Who made the shell of the camer?
Wanted to see the bed, but they didn't show it.
Info on the truck camper shell please
Total Composites
I would likely forget to retract the solar panels and hit the road or something else😅
We honestly have so much solar that we rarely need to put them out so it's never been a problem remembering for us! That'd be a very expensive mistake to make haha!
Good job! Next time I might describe the actual truck a little more.
