I live across the street from Jim believe me he has worked on this for some time BUT it was well worth it this is the first time I have saw it since he finished it... LOOKS GOOD JIM
Looks great.. i remember when i went through my mid life crisis around 20 years ago. 2 Harleys, a nice tent, and a motorhome.. now I ride my couch watching other people go through their 2nd childhood.. good to see you are having fun with it..😊
@jimkaraok on the shower scene is that just a residential shower you get from lowes home depot etc etc as well as your grey tank is it mounted under the trailer? Nice ctc im going this weekend to look at trailers myself to convert into toyhauler for my harley
I am feeling better. Keep in mind, this video was shot back in June when I was not sick, just fat. Lol. But yes, the antibiotics are finally kicking and I feel a little better each day.
This little place is a real cutie! I love the decor and the layout! It looks so cozy and comfy. Awesome tv set up and I like the openness and simplicity of the drop down tables. They also show that if you have a good eye and sense of style, you can make anything look great!
That is very well thought out. Only thing I saw I would add is a half self in the little cupboard over the fridge. Nice job. I use throw rugs over cold floor and roll up to dust mop out trailer and shake rugs outside. The floors are always cold in cold weather. Happy living
Yes, I am feeling better. Keep in mind that this walk thru video was filmed back in June at the Tiny House Adventures Rendezvous in Missouri. But yes, the antibiotics are finally kicking in and I'm feeling better everyday.
@@billanddeb I figured you had to prepare it for upload which takes energy and time. However, you are probably a pro and it doesn’t take you much to edit.
The very best thing to show you someone went above and beyond is that they built out that front wall to hide all the cables and a/c lines so they run down to the bottom.
I love the whole setup, but especially the large shower, kitchen and the whole solar electrical combination….you did a great job. Curious how much everything costs? I am still trying to decide what I want. Thank you!
I’d imagine if that floor isn’t insulated, that airbed would be rather cold in the spring and fall. Certainly not a complaint, just an observation. Very nice build,bye the way!
My husband and I wondered what underlayment Jim used on the ceiling and we assumed you Glued it??? If so what kind of glue and was it a pain to do? Thank you!!
We've covered this subject in the past. Private campgrounds generally do not accept Cargo Trailer Conversions. However, Deb and I have found a couple here and there that do. That's why 99% of the time we stay in US Army Corp of Engineer campgrounds and State Parks. No hassle there. In fact, we prefer these types of campgrounds for a multitude of reasons. First and foremost,,,,,,,price. If you're 62 and over, you qualify for the America The Beautiful Senior Pass which gets you a 50% discount at all federally managed campgrounds. A typical COE site is rarely more than $30 per night, and with the Senior Pass that equates to $15 per night. Most have water and electric at the site, and some have sewer at the site. In addition, you're not crammed in like sardines, and, most of these campgrounds are next to a beautiful river or lake.
Interesting videos. I don’t see any of them mention or discuss the main # 1 feature of any build That is torsion axles and Vault Hubs. Pulling these trailers all over the roads, leaf springs that break and old school packing bearings is never fun I may need to do a Cargo Conversion instead of those over rated expensive RVs..
A few of our walk thru videos have featured those with torsion axles. The biggest issue I've seen is inadequate ground clearance. I have yet to hear anyone say they can be adjusted for higher ground clearance. Low ground clearance creates a multitude of issues when it comes to sewer drains, etc. In addition, those torsion axles I have seen on Cargo Trailer Conversions have the same spindles and bearings with quick lube hubs.
just upgrade the axles to 7000 pounds each torque flex , eight lug , will ride same ,hit curbs all day ,go off road , never get flat , i switch my landscaping trailer to this ,and haven’t changed a flat tire since clipping curbs
They seem to be okay with it. Everyone has their own preferences. That's the beauty of building your own. You build it with the features that are important to you. 😆

Great layout, multi use, ....excellent design Jim and Linda!!!
A very nice interview. Thanks for showing us what you have done.
New sub! Thanks for showing us all these exceptional camper builds! Sooo interesting!
Thank you for watching
I love the inconspicuous nature of the build. Retaining functionality with ingenuity, very nice build!
Great 19yr old car hauler! The window made with shower curtain is beautiful.
❤it's a blessing that you are feeling well enough to put a vlog together for us all. Thank you, God bless ❤
I love what they did with the shower curtains genius.
I thought that that was going to be very complicated and it turned out to be very simple😊
Thank you
@@jimkaraok also like its a camper & can b a toy hauler. Neat.
@@jimkaraok hi Jim!!
@@BernieKathie hi😊😊

Obviously you’re feeling better Bill.
We’ve been praying for you and Deb
I am feeling better. Keep in mind, this video was shot back in June when I was not sick, just fat. Lol. But yes, the antibiotics are finally kicking and I feel a little better each day.
Yeah, Jim and Linda!! Awesome people we met in Missouri!! Love your CTC!!
Thank you Bill. I love your videos especially the walk through stuff. I’m glad you were able to post and I pray you heal soon.
Cracked me up when he said "Murial". Big difference from us southerners
Nice clean build. I really liked the finish on his tables and counter top.
Thank you

The most impressive shower I have seen. Nice video.
Really nice rig. Thanks for sharing Bill. Glad you and Deb are on the mend.
Great conversion! I like how he thought it through and came up with practical solutions ❤
My aunt was named Muriel. Nice rig!
Simple but lots features… really nice … yall enjoy
Very nice trailer. Great build.Nice meeting y’all in Greenville. Keith and Patty.
Nice trailer y’all!! Really enjoyed meeting you at the rendezvous in Missouri!! Always friendly when y’all road past our tent!
That’s really nice, they did a great job.
Thats a great build
Nice rig Jim and Linda! Very nice!
That's awesome Lil trailer
Awesome build! Lots of thought and time I hope you get a ton of use out of it.
That is very well thought out. Only thing I saw I would add is a half self in the little cupboard over the fridge. Nice job. I use throw rugs over cold floor and roll up to dust mop out trailer and shake rugs outside. The floors are always cold in cold weather. Happy living
I love this! They did a wonderful Job!
I am praying this means that you are feeling better Bill.

@@billanddeb❤stay safe bro
Lol. I was suffering from fog brain,,,,,,,,,,just a little. 🤪
@@billanddeb glad you both are doing well.
How discrete! I love it!
This size trailer might be the only size house I'll ever be able to afford.
Man that’s a awesome setup❤
I lived in a 7X14 trailer once while hunting.
Had 3 beds, no lights and no heater. And it rained for 6 of the 7 days.
But I got my moose
They did a great job!!!
😲 wow beautifully creative design
So unexpected, but so pleasantly surprised!
Great idea. I could live in that year round. Especially with the cost of housing being so high.
Simple, but very efficient!!! I love it💞💞💞
Love the walk thrus
Beautiful indeed . . GREAT JOB‼️🫵🏼🙂👍🏼
Iwould want at least one window to look out and for more airflow. Other than that this a really nice build.
Very nice setup.
highlights! You look awesome.
Very nice well thought out
Shower curtain?! Fantastic!
Yes a great, simple idea
That is FANTASTIC! Great job!
Great job.

Nice rig.
Thanks for sharing!!
Love ❤️ the tiny house community
Nice 👍👍
Nice job
P.S. I am so stealing the shower curtain thing 😊
What is the toung weight? Very nice build.
Nice.😊
My buddy has a 7x20 with 8 foot ceiling he’s actually thinking about maybe putting bunkbeds in his I said that might be kind of cool lol
Nice!
Bill, I hope you and Deb are doing okay. ❤️
I’d imagine if that floor isn’t insulated, that airbed would be rather cold in the spring and fall. Certainly not a complaint, just an observation. Very nice build,bye the way!
Nice toyhauler, where does the bed go when the toys are loaded?
It looked like an inflatable bed to me.
We never really talked about it. Sorry.
That is an air mattress that we just roll up and put out of the way
How do you fit the side by side in?
Cool.
My husband and I wondered what underlayment Jim used on the ceiling and we assumed you
Glued it??? If so what kind of glue and was it a pain to do?
Thank you!!
It's called Luan
Can I ask where the 2025 meetup might be. From Tampa . Thanks
We always announce dates and locations of our Rendezvous around 6 months in advance right here on the UA-cam channel. Stay tuned.
Looks great. But I need windows
👍👍👍👍👍❤❤❤
Is that an air mattress?
Yes. I have a double height queen like that one. Very convenient and a bit easier on older knees than single height.
I don't understand about what's so stunning about the interior?
Guess it's all in the eyes of the beholder. Different strokes.......
This is a man cave which speaks more to his marriage than camper life.
Bill I am finishing a 8x20 trailer, is there a reason why I couldn’t put a residential toilet in it except for weight
I can't think of any reason.
The shaking back and forth is hard on the tank seals. You have to take the lid off when you are traveling. I had one and the tank eventually broke.
I wonder if they are having problems getting into RV parks. A lot of parks have a requirement that the RV have an RVIA approved certification.

When you get drunk just walk over and fall into bed.
At 5:15. The Devil will like that too ???

Love that awesome shower!! 💦
They like to drink 😂
I mean why not install a few small windows. It be worth it yes.
A window is nice, but remember, every small space is important. A window space removes storage space, so everyone's needs are different.
all that was cheaper than buyin one?
Most likely, yes. In addition, if repairs need to be made, they can easily do. They built it.
That guy has no idea his wife is desperate to have a voice.
You have no idea the people that refuse to talk on camera
That trailer needs windows.

Couldn't they find a "bigger" TV?? Ha Ha
