Even with the propane tank hanging in the back, it looks like a commercial vehicle This is a fantastic job, sir I can’t believe the ingenuity that went into creating this
This is brilliant! Eric, you thought of everything! Beautiful, handiwork, amazing and you are just incredible! I love it! Wish I could have something like that.
Amidst all the "stunning" comments, no one seems to notice there are no windows. What is the point of camping if you're inside a tin box and can't even see the Earth?
We typically back into the view and then use the French doors to enjoy the scenery. We spend most of our time on the back deck as it is really comfortable and so get the full view. The skylight and connection to the cab add more light. When it gets dark, we close up and rely on the cameras to see what is going on around us. The lack of additional windows has not been an issue for us.
I dont even know what to say, wow, something so natural about travel and this combines travel experience with HOME. Home is usually somewhere you return tk after a journey...but home going with you? Every night? So beautiful
Between the double bagging and the cat litter, as well as the use of a contractor collection bag there is little chance of any problem. I am very careful to throw away the collection bag in a dumpster where noone has to deal with it.
This is such an incredible, well thought out home. Instead of cat litter, consider using pine pellets designed to be used as horse bedding. A 40-pound bag at Tractor Supply Company is $8.00, much cheaper than cat litter. The pine pellets absorb the moisture from feces, making it a dried solid and urine causes the pellets to break down into sawdust and absorb the fluid. No dust, no smell. I use it for my cats and every few days, just dump the entire litter pan in the garbage and start fresh. There's no need to scoop daily.
It is very tall 13' 3" which has its disadvantages. However, it has an eight foor ceiling which is nice, no wheel wells to work around, substantial space under the truck bed for tanks etc. and full size tires which are more efficient. So pros and cons. Good luck with your build.
@@DrDuze-se5cx the other trucks will have the same size box they have smaller wheels and tires and lower suspension I drive a bucket truck from time to time and is very nerve-wracking cities are supposed to be clear of the height but a big rain or a low branch can still crush the bucket or controls
Not meant to tow the truck; he wanted it for being able to go down steep hillsides (personally, not the truck), say to a lake or river, and have that mechanical assistance in getting back up the hill. (In several trips, we haven't used it yet!)
Very nice amazing job. I don’t know if you’re a smoker or an ex smoker. I noticed it seemed like you were having a hard time breathing while you were talking suggestion is Mullen tea helps with your lungs and USA Irish CMOS
*I LAFFED SO MUCH, WE REALLY NEEDED A LAUGH TRACK HERE. IT'S AKIN TO THE WONDER OF WATCHING WILLY WONKA AND THE CHOCOLATE FACTORY FOR THE FIRST TIME. ❤*
Wow, you did an amazing job on this. Pretty much all the comforts of home, and so much storage! You're definitely talented and creative! Thanks for sharing!
I've always admired mechanically-minded people who see what they want, imagine a plan, grab some tools, and then go about hammering reality into a shape that fits their needs. The type of mind that could engineer complicated cabinetry, wire up cameras and electrical systems, and then dream up something as simple as zip-ties to ease an unpleasant situation. Your 98 year-old dad must be so proud of you!
Thanks! I am not sure if I included the description of how the toilet seat was made so here it is. I unscrewed the seat and cover and switched them so the seat was on top and the solid cover was underneath. Then cut the hole in the cover slightly larger than the seat opening. This lets you hang the bag so the lip is under the seat and does not get soiled. I then added a spring clip made from a piece of steel tension spring from the hardware store. This is attatched to the underside of the seat at the front and clips the two parts of the toilet seat together so the bag does not slip. Good luck with your project!
@@DrDuze-se5cx Thanks for that description, Makes perfect sense. That saves so much money on the fancy toilet systems. I too struggle with cleaning out the toilet. I'm not sure if this system would pass out rules for self-containment here in New Zealand. They are crazy with their rules here.
Forgot to say: couple of my favorite things are: your USA Map, and the awesome back porch! I love the tailgate lift, awning, porch swing and retractable steps! 😊 Thanks again!
Just awesome sir. I love everything about it! Thank you so much for sharing! You are very gifted and talented. The fit and finish of your cabinetry is perfect. How long did it take for you to build it all? If the price is right, would you sell it to me? I will make you an offer you can’t refuse.😊😂. I’m retired Army, retired long-haul trucker been everywhere in USA, retired construction. Money is not an issue; just might not have the time. 66 years young, but have 8 grown kids and 19+grandkids. Would be hard to find the time to build that beautiful camper. Thanks again!
I am glad you enjoyed the video. It took two years to build after I retired. I am still enjoying it, but if I get to the point where I want to sell, I will be glad to let you know.
