Our New Camper! 1973 Hunter Compact II (Fiberglass)
Просмотров 3,1 тыс.3 года назад
Hello Viewers! In June of last year Marinn and I officially sold our Truck Camper Phil, bought a house, and had a baby. However after a full year of living in our fiberglass truck camper Phil, we decided it was time to get going on our next camper project. We decided on a pull behind fiberglass camper that could be light enough to push around our house, and small enough to be stored in our gara...

Living in a Camper during Quarantine!
Просмотров 3,9 тыс.4 года назад
A lot of folks have been asking us what our life is like as Covid-19 has swept the country. Our last 2 months of college have been moved to online and we have been restricted from travel outside of our county of residence (Utah County). It's been a challenge to find wifi for school projects, and a bummer that we've had to cancel travel for the next while. Fortunately we have awesome parents who...
DIY 12 Volt Indoor Camper Projector
Просмотров 12 тыс.4 года назад
As we've now been in Quarantine for over 2 weeks, we decided it was high time we added some entertainment to our mobile home. With a few hooks in the ceiling and a stretched out sheet, we got it done! Our camper of course runs completely off of our 12 volt battery system, meaning we couldn't use the 110v plug our projector came with. We did our research and found a projector that although uses ...

Phil Goes To Brian Head
Просмотров 7144 года назад
Friday night at 10pm we decided, what the heck, lets head down to Parowan, Utah to shred some powder at Brian Head ski resort. We arrived at the resort pretty late, but were lucky enough to park right in the resort parking lot. We woke up and had the whole resort to ourselves! It sure is lovely not having to worry about finding a place to stay! Musical Shout Outs (Courtesy of Audio Library - Mu...

Living in a Truck Camper During the Winter
Просмотров 297 тыс.4 года назад
While attending our final semesters of college, we have now lived in our truck bed camper, Phil, for over 5 months! Most of that time has been spent during a cold and snowy Utah winter. We get asked every day how we are managing in such a tiny space while living in such harsh conditions. Here’s our list of Pros and Cons: what makes it really suck, and what we really enjoy. As always, thanks for...

    I saw one lady on RUclips prop up her mattress with soup cans during the day time in order to vent the underside of her mattress. I don't know if that solved it for good, but it seemed to work for a time.

    Good gifts for you two would be a shore charger for the batteries, and a honda generator. Or new batteries :) You both are amazing for never giving up your joys and braving an unconventional student life. I love all of your videos!

    Sorry you had the mold problem. Started watching this hoping to get tips on how to prevent this frm happening in our truck camper. Pausing to say the volume goes from normal levels to suddenly blasting my eardrums. Would love if the volume didn't do that....

      A tip from a podcasting friend: put more distance between you and the mic before sneezing, coughing, whooping it up, yelling.....You can see singers on stage moving the mic away from their mouth when belting it out and bring the mic back close to the mouth for the quieter verses.

    The best thing is to buy a usb fan and every morning i put a small piece under mattress to hold it up and then leave the fan running under mattress too keep it dry and then remove it back when I am sleeping in it

  • @nathanbenton2051

    very cool. much cheaper than a coir bed cushion. so with your solution, you never got mold on the underside of the mattress after this?

    I have a 2001 2500C10.6E on a 2007 RAM 3500 dually and love it. The storage is terrific and you have shown me a couple of ideas that I might incorporate. The only quibble about your walk-thru is that the bed is NOT a full queen, but an RV queen. If you are under 6'2" you won't really notice. Once you hit that height, though, you become the same length as the bed. It is the only feature of the Northern Lites series that I prefer, but have learned to curl when I sleep. I travelled solo across Canada for 30,000 km in 2014 in a 9.6 (biggest difference is wet bath vs dry bath) and am thrilled with the ease of using the toile compared to the smaller unit.

Ours works it just looks scary, we want to re-do it. We're wondering was the crappy wood board of switches original? Also what kind of paint did you use? Thanks!

  • @pedalingthru2719
    @pedalingthru2719 Год назад

    The only down fall on the whole set up is that the truck is not rated to haul that much of a payload. Bigfoot recommends a 1 ton dualy for that camper. After 12 years of travels in ours we broke down this week and ordered a new f-350 dualy and a new bigfoot 10-4

    • @MSB1080

    BEAUTIFUL TRUCK CAMPER! ALL FIBERGLASS, THE ONLY WAY TO GO! WAS PLANNING TO BUY A NEW/NEWER VAN BUT AFTER VIEWING SOME OF THESE TRUCK CAMPERS, IT MAKES MORE SENSE AS TRUCKS ARE MORE RELIABLE. DOES THE BIGFOOT OFFER PASS THROUGH WINDOW TO THE PASSANGER COPARTMENT? (SECURITY IS IMPORTANT TO ME.)

    Interesting idea but I sure hope you have unlimited data plan on your phones. Otherwise that will be a humungus bill at the end of the month for the data used on your cell/mobile phone. Please tripple check with the telecom provider your using. Also if your at a site sometimes these camp sites have free wifi. You could just connect a router to the wifi spot and then have your laptop connect to that.
