Tyler's #VanLife on 37s Four Wheel Camper Build & Tacoma3G.com Shenanigans

If anyone was interested in following the camper build/our whole journey on YouTube, I honestly don’t know if I’ll ever make another video.

I cringe at the idea of trying to film almost everything we do instead of just experiencing it for ourselves. On the contrary, having the videos to look back on would be cool.
 
This is the only picture I have from when we were taking initial measurements and such.

I’ll take an updated picture later on, but currently we have our dinette area mocked up with the plywood cut.

We will be sitting to the left and right of the window, on top of that sheet of plywood. We’re sitting on top of 25” wide by 18” deep boxes, which gives us a good amount of storage under our butts. And that’s in addition to that huge cubby of storage to the right of the toilet.

Our dinette table is going to mount directly off the bed frame above the window but it will have a quick disconnect so it can be out of our way when we don’t need it.

That's my biggest hurdle to filming. Either I set up the cameras and it doesn't look right after or I spend 4 hours doing something that should of taken 90 minutes because of trying to wrangle a camera and saying something intelligent while the camera is on.

1000% to both of those, especially the second one.
 
Made some progress today. In the center of the two seats, detachable from the bed rail, will be our dinette table. On the left side of the divider at the bottom will be our toilet that slides out. Under the seat cushions is storage. (Everything in the photo is staged and not actually secured yet.)

I’d like to meet up. I’m in Austin finalizing some things for the closing of my house, then all I have is a big pot of cash, and a shit ton of time. Still need to remount my spare tire carrier and rotopax/maxtrax mount on my rear swing-out. Ever thought about rolling into Canada? I’d like to get a photo with the “attic circle” sign up by Yellowknife. Hit me up is you’re interested. Maybe we could meet up in Yellowstoned. 🤷🏽‍♂️

We’ll be exploring Canada on our way up/down to Alaska. Not sure when that will be due to the border crossings though.

It really gives 3.2"? Was that from measuring the shock or actual height installed/settled?
