Hi Nate, I think I've been with your channel since its inception, and I LOVE the fact that you've had such a variety of camping/living type dwelling vehicles. It shows that you're not a stagnant person and the experience that you're gaining is priceless. You think outside the box and allow yourself to truly experience what life has to offer. I love this truck camper for you, just as I've enjoyed the last 10 vehicles. LOL! Keep switching things up as you see fit and continue to enjoy every moment of your life. Even the frustrating ones. Safe travels and all the best to you and your family 🙂
Look how far you've come from a Honda Element camper to a truck camper!! Wow! Life is good! You inspired me, way back, to get a Honda Element and start camping. I upgraded to a VW Camper then a Ford Transit Connect Minivan and most recently a Ford Transit! Lovin' the places I've been and things I've seen! Thank you for getting me started. All the best to you and Shannon!
That's a big gap above the cab
Very nice Nate...congrats! Word to the wise, I'd recommend removing your lift jacks when you get back to NM. One slight accident (particularly in parking lots with the rear jacks) and a hit on those jacks can do severe structural damage to the corners of the camper. The bonus is you can drop 100+ pounds from the rig. If you want to keep them with you, better to remove and store them in the rig. You only learn this lesson the hard way once. ;-)
So happy for you, Nate! I'm really looking forward to what's up ahead. Best to you and Shannon.
Giant like. The new camper is a complete upgrade from the old one. Two thumbs up..
Very cool! Being able to do things yourself is nice but sometimes a turnkey solution works really well.
YAY a new camper! You definitely deserved to upgrade from the leaky one, so you can sleep comfortably, safely and with no water leaks. All the other features seem nice too. You have had such interesting vehicles over time, starting with the Element back in the day. Keep on having fun and we will still be here for your latest adventures! All the best to you.
Definitely run the fridge on propane when you don't have shore power. Those absorption fridges are a huge power hog. The 12 volt is really only for when the you are in motion and the truck's alternator can provide power for it.
Congrats on that camper! I hope you snugged down those tie-downs, I saw a little slack.... Pro-tip 1 , put the hooks to the inside of the hold downs, keeps that edge from being a hazard. Pro tip 2, make new holes in your hold down legs, get them tighter into the body... Pull the pin, slide them all the way in, mark and drill for new hole and presto... Nice and tight.
God created the longboard so that the truly gifted wouldn’t rule the world. - wiser man than I . Cool video man!
Good to see you surfing again. Very therapeutic
A new camper is so exciting, and this looks really nice! Congratulations. I've enjoyed living vicariously through you as you've tried these different camper vehicles.

Hey Nate! Happy for you! Watching these videos is very inspiring, I’m still catching up with your videos when you had the element. I own one at the moment and started to live in it, thanks for the inspiration 👍

Congtrats! That’s a sweet setup.

WOW! I’m looking at aRouge this week. I like the fact that it is attached at the front, easier to put up and less likely to get out of alignment. Great video !
Glad to see you following your bliss again:)

I love the New Camper.....
You've Earned it.... You've built-out your own & made do with so much less...
This is a Nice Reward for all you & Shannon put into the Tiny Home....
Good Going - Enjoy...
At 8:35. My first TC was a palomino bronco. When I bought it I had no idea that the MFG did NOT recommend being inside the camper when it was supported only by jacks(not on truck or supported by something like sawhorses). The joint between floor was not designed to be strong enough for use without secondary support. No idea if this is the case with your rogue, but you might want to check before trying it out.
Congrats
Cool rig Nate! I'm glad you finally got something that fits your needs better.
Take care!
-Jon
Awesome video enjoy your new home
Love the new camper.
Very nice camper! This purchase was an excellent move! Have a great Thanksgiving!
👍good luck new camper
hell yeah~! looks like a nice rig!
this rogue camper is hella dope, looking forward to your upcoming adventures
Nice upgrade!
Stoked you bought something new and did your best trying other options before doing so.
That's a sweet setup!
comfort is good. Enjoy!
CONGRATS
life is short make yourself happy. nice rig friend
a heater really changes everything. i actually like traveling around in the cold more than the summer. easier to stay comfy, fewer people around haha.
It's awesome!
been following for a couple of years. coming up on 100k!!! nice nice nice
sick setup! what an upgrade man. enjoy! -Matt (The Freedom Van from OC)
Nice setup and some tasty waves Bro
BOSS setup!!!!
It looks fab.
Looks nice! After the leak video I was like yeah he’s gonna have a new camper by next video
So yeah it's sometimes happens when you work and sweat and think that you're doing a god one and then some corporate one shows you where wrong ☺️ I'm with you for a long time and I'm very happy to see you happy with this new setup. Hope will stick with it for longer and make more traveling. I now you want it... 🤫
Best of luck.
That's one funny looking element!
Super nice!
Very kool, i might go this route too 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Bought my EA1 in 2020. Love how lightweight it is. I live in Colorado and have taken it to Yellowstone & Grand Teton, Montana & various spots here in Colorado. Also enjoy the simplicity. I don't need nor want all the bells and whistles. All that extra stuff gets heavy and costs more. Enjoy your travels.
Nice camper! Just saw your last vid where you took a loss. Get out here to CA and do some camping and surfing this winter!
Very nice!
It looks good! I'm jealous, Nate. :)
Such a sick new setup!
Great to see your new rig.. a fellow UA-camer told me the engine and transmission in your truck is good for over 300,000 miles. I know you like the Browns. I'm going to the Bills vs the Browns in Detroit MI on Sunday. Wish you were going with us. Bye for now.
looks like a good setup. Thanks for the tour, I have been wondering what the Rouge would look like with that wedge top up. And how the standing room would be.
Living large! You deserve it. I for one am stoke for some traveling content and less of the diy stuff. Can't wait to see where you end up.
