After she's done, get her lifted on a car lift and spray the underneath of the living space with Rhino or any other type of heavy duty liner. If this is going to go the distance in all places you will need it. Maybe even a foam spray insulation.

If you still have it, the part you cut out for the sink. You could use that as a sink cover and a cutting board. Router for making a lip to lock it in place and a small hole to lift it out.

I’m my opinion the bench next to the sink is wasted floor space. You already have a bench/bed, so why 2 bench’s. A vertical closet in the corner would have been a better use of space there and then put a tv mount above it. Just my 2 cents.

I'm now an adventure motorcycle camper so I wouldn't get much use from a kei truck camper, but after watching this series and the kei camper videos from Mike Festiva and Olympic Overland, I'd love to build a drop in camper for my 4WD Hijet. I'd make it 7 feet long so there was a generous cot on one side with a small propane two burner stove in front on the other side. I'd make it from 1" rigid foam with fiberglass hand laid over the foam (aka a Foamie). I'd keep it super simple with no windows, but I'd max out the top with solar panels and might even make a pull out solar patio roof. No windows, but maybe four cameras on top looking out in all directions and a large TV inside with the ability to have a virtual window or split screen security view of all cameras at once. Most of the weight (LiFePO4 battery, inverter, water, propane) would be in the front to keep it stable. No cab over design. Just a simple low rectangular box to keep it simple.
@josephdover198
@josephdover198 Ай бұрын
Yeah I really dig what Mike Festiva and his brother did with their Carry and Acty. 7 feet is interesting because the beds are 6 feet long. I'm sure you would have a plan as to how it stays in place while also being able to remove it. Personally I would want at least one window.
@Liberty4Ever
@Liberty4Ever Ай бұрын
@@josephdover198 - I'm 6'2" so I'd like a longer cot, but I'd be careful not to hang a lot of weight too far off the back. I'd remove the tailgate (one 10 mm bolt) when the camper is installed. There are four convenient tie downs on the outside of the bed sides on each side so it'd be easy to strap the camper down and toward the front, much like any other load. With enough solar power, it might be possible to have a refrigerated cooler or maybe even a small RV fridge/freezer, but an ice box would probably suffice for my simple needs. Speaking of needs... I need to stop thinking about a mini truck camper before I spend a lot of time and money building something cool I'll seldom use. 😀 If I get the urge to go kei truck overland camping, I'll toss my Hennessy 4-Season Explorer Zip hammock and other ADV motorcycle camping equipment into the truck and go!

Here's an idea for your table.... the design on your counter as you walk into your van (I'm sorry, I can't remember the name of the place it is from) would look beautiful. You then have that element from your van in your mini build. Just something to ponder 😊 🤷‍♀️

I'm absolutely stoked, great to see this little thing really getting into the final shape, can't wait for the ride-alongs you'll take us with it. For the gaming, I'd probably avoid going full xbox + display setup and just get the Steam Deck instead, but I'm not really an xbox guy to begin with. Great choice of music btw, greetings from over the pond.

Well Ryan I think it was probably a fun project. Impractical is the first thing that comes to mind,,,but it’s all relative. That rig might be great for a week long trip to limited locations. Small and stealthy. But if you have the money and it was fun,,,good on you bro. I hope it didn’t’ take too much of a dent into your finances. Your sweet spot, in terms of popularity, is in the travel videos you make. I can’t speak to the sweet spot for making money. You have been to a ton of places,,,fortunately, this country is VAST,,,and there are so many places few have been to, your playground is almost unlimited. I hope and look forward to more travel videos,,,find those unique spots that many of us travelers don’t find or know about. Be that inspiration that so many people need to pick up and go.

you're right about te relay for the indicators Older cars use thermal one that use heat to make the "on/off" sequence When you put a led insted of a bulb, less power is consumed so the relay heat faster and goes of faster (i'm not really good in english ud i think you should understand haha) You can put a resistor to consume a but of power or replace the indicator relay by one that is "led friendly" thanks for you vids Geoffrey, from France
