Beautiful conversion of the jeeps. I can well understand your motives. Since we ourselves have been traveling for 25 years with a similar roof conversion, I can tell you that it opens up a whole new range of possibilities and raises life in the vehicle to a very pleasant level. We love your inspiring travel reports. Stay healthy and share many more of your impressions with us.

I can't help but wonder...................................if I had the money, could they put one of those pop ups on my mini-van or would the weight be too much for the walls of the van to support? I guess I'll never know,, I can't imagine how I co8uld come up with the money for one of those,, much less have it installed. But WOW!!! What a great idea! My mind is working overtime just thinking of how I would be able to travel places. Maybe even put in enough solar power to power my oxygen. Until then, I will continue living ou8t my dreams binge watching all your videos. As a great-granny, my heart will forever be young and on an adventure, even if it is through other people's journeys. Thank you for sharing your adventures, your family, and the knowledge you attain as you go. I am so amazed at the many talents each of your children have. and use!!! You all are so very blessed!

Hi Y'all. This is a great idea to gain a LOT OF SPACE enclosed in warmth. Setup and get going in the mornings would also be less time. Certainly there's a few compromises. But at ALL still a GREAT idea. There are some really nice bike trailers that weigh almost nothing ideally for off-road conditions. I'm very excited to see the next few episodes how "OUR" home evolves....🤠
