    "Here is the bed...and here is the DISHWASHER, two burner stove with an OVEN, here is the TRASH COMPACTOR, and the AIR PURIFIER........and...." hahaha..AMAZING! This was FABULOUS! 😁 WAY TO GO! I saw in another comment you said you didn't want to look lazy or wasteful. Dishwashers are actually very water efficient. And..you are in an SUV..so please do not feel any guilt over your VASTLY lower water consumption that 99.99% of people here in the U.S.! What an amazing setup! Super fun to watch! This is without a doubt the ONLY SUV I have ever seen with ANY of the above things included, and I imagine I have watched a few thousand of these videos. Kudos!

      Yes I do and there is a great story why! I used to own a magical sink, I kid you not! Ever single time I would put dirty dishes in the sink only to come back later to see them gone. I tried to explain this magical sink to my girlfriend but she didn't understand and just screamed at me. For the longest time I would put what ever I wanted in there no matter what it was and it would vanish. It was the most amazing thing to have, until disaster hit. My girlfriend must have been to close to the magical sink or something and she has now disappeared!! Its the only resendable explanation. Having a magical sink that will clean up all mess was the best thing in the world but knowing how dangerous it can be and may take another life I will forever now always let the machines handle it.

    • @suvlife7187
      @suvlife7187  2 роки тому +3

      That is a problem, I charge them when at destination in outlets and I get power to them when driving from the vehicle. I do want to buy solar panels here one day to extend the time I can be out.

      @@suvlife7187 how much solar would it require? I need this. But, jackery products are expensive. I may have to go the battery bank, inverter etc route.I wonder if I omitted the dishwasher and trash compactor if my fridge and freezer would fit inside vehicle.

    Love it! Especially the dishwasher, who wants to wash dishes when they can relax?
    Have to mention this, if you find mold or mildew growing in tight spaces (white, green, or other colors growing on surfaces, and off smells including a milky, or woodsy- earthy scent, not just moldy & musty) you can clean it up using UVC bulbs with or without ozone, fairly cheap on amazon and a clamp light fixture (less than $10 at wally world). Sometimes the problem needs to be exposed to the light for a 1/2 hour or longer to get the job done, be sure to leave the area, don’t look at the light, and if using ozone then don’t breathe the fumes. The bulbs have to have a quartz glass, not plastic, also look for the ones that have passed inspection and are returnable in case they don’t work (sometimes they don’t). This is a quick and painless way to deal w/moldy issues and not mess with bleach or other chemicals (I use them a lot living in an old house). I mentioned this because it looked like there was some white stuff in your computer storage area…tho it could have been reflective light ☺️…your set-up is too cool to let it pass without mentioning it, just in case it is.
    Many safe travels and have fun. ❤️

    The dishwasher made me giggle 🤣🤣🤣 What a dude will do to get out of washing the dishes❗BRILLIANT. Really good job. My only change would be instead of the dishwasher add a cabinet to that area for storage. ALSO, add DAMPRID to control and get rid of moisture, you will need it.

    I have watched 100's of tiny house builds. Off-road teardrop builds and so many suburban camper builds its crazy. This is the most equipt suburban I have seen. I built a off-road teardrop trailer from the ground up and a lot of people refused to believe it was a DIY. I am now building a 3/4 ton suburban for overlanding/off-roading/camping. I hope you dont mind but I plan on using a couple of your ideas. Great build. Thank you for sharing
