VIDEO DESCRIPTION:
Andrew and Ashley spent 2 years building this adventure vehicle from the ground up. They worked out of their friends garage and literally built the frame, the box, the interior... Everything. They initially hoped it would take 2 months of 16 hour days... Always give yourself more time than you think it's going to take. They have a beefy solar system with lithium batteries, tons of storage and the ability to travel on absolutely any terrain with the truck they built on top of and the additions they made. There's so much good information in this video about a small, functional layout including a bathroom, how to take care of moisture under beds and solar, so if you love adventure and life on the road, this is the video for you!

Earthroamers have taken off over the last few years. This has lead to people building these awesome DIY overland rigs! Is this something you are considering?
If I was their age & had the money.... in a heartbeat.
Most definitely yes!!
Yes but on the smaller NZ Ford Ranger
Absolutely considering
No.
I can’t watch stuff like this because it makes quitting school and traveling the country a way too enticing option 😂
I agree, but it will come true. If you can dream it, you can do it🌎🚐
Do it
The irony is that quitting school is probably the best thing for you. Although you won’t realize this until just after graduation when you realize that now you get to teach yourself how to make money while holding down an assistant manager position at Starbucks
Everything in moderation. Finish school, get a remote job, save a few years, and work out of a vehicle like this.
@@TheDude_Abides_ getting a remote job is the only way this is possible.
This is THE best laid out arrangement I’ve ever seen. Your use of space is fabulous. One of my biggest complaints is the waisted space, particularly in small units. Drawers & cabinets leave so much space unused.
Thank you Linda! That was our biggest complaint as well so we knew we needed to design enough storage for ourselves.
@@the_watcher_ with the air conditioner and WeBoost on top the vehicle is at 13'6. Without those it's at 12'.
@@AndrewMuse what's a WeBoost?
@@richbenson2431 It's to boost cell signal in remote areas. We were able to pick up LTE in the desert where we typically get 1x
@@AndrewMuse Could you let me know the over all dimensions like the length x width of the camper?
I've watched over 500 trailers, RV, campers and tiny home videos. I simply adore the concept of living small but with luxury. And this truck camper of yours is by far the best one I've seen. Congratulations.
This is one of best uses of space I've seen in a tiny home. Nice work.
Thank you! We had so much gear we really had to maximize the storage
this dog his living his best life.
Seriously, i envy this dog so much
That’s our goal! 😂🙏❤️👊
Ragnar Lothbrook, you must be a Vikings fan??? 👍
And he has a dog too
I was just about to say this !! ha ha
6.0 with arp studs and egr delete are actually bad ass imo.
It's hard to believe this was a pickup truck. Amazing. It seems so big in the inside, considering. Really awesome.
AWESOME. COMPACT AND COMPLETE. LOVE THIS ONE INDEED. WHAT A GREAT LIFESTYLE.
EVERYTHING LOOKS EXPENSIVE BUT TITLE SAYS CAMPER ON A BUDGET.
Good point! I guess the budget is whatever they can budget in? Def not typical for the average joe.
I think they are comparing it to if you just bought it instead of built it
you already know that this is THE BEST looking DIY RV on the planet. No question. I had a 6.0 2003 stolen out of my driveway that was bulletproofed etc but I replaced it with a 2012
You can do whatever you want if you have a good soul mate. Sharing the life together at the nature with your wife,kids, dog and this great vehicle, do not make you old. I am so jealous now.
Great job guys!
Please, make a video talking a little more about how do you afford to work remotely? How can people that what to have that kind of like start working remotely?
We were SO close to being full time RVers with our 6 kids (we’re a blended family), but it was held up by changes in our custody arrangement with my husband’s ex. We had renovated the whole thing and had even moved out of our place and were preparing to get on the road in a matter of days. Anyway, as far as work, my husband is a front end developer (a type of web developer), so he was just going to continue his work as usual. That’s one option. You should check out the website rootless living. They have a free magazine that gives lots of ideas on how people live this lifestyle.
@@dmsjt5181 I’m a freelancer translator, but my income it’s not enough for full time! I will check it out for sure, thank you! And don’t give up, if that is your family dream and goal, I’m sure you guys will find a friendly agreement where you can achieve that! 🙌🏽
@@Mari0ana5 it’s just not going to be possible until all my step kids are 18. Their mom won’t let them do online school, so there’s no way to make it happen. But in the future, we will most likely be doing it with our 3 younger kids.
Andrew, you are truly a genius. You are truly innovative.. You thought everything through cleverly and put safety at the top. The pass through and bulletproof is the perfect must have..... Great job 👍!!!
Nice. That's smart putting the bike up higher. Makes it safer. Pass through for safty. Like that the bed is not so close to the ceiling.
Thank you! We're so glad we did the pass through!
I love the pass through. I have been pricing out doing this, but can't afford the van/truck. But U-haul trucks are cheap, so with the passthrough, it makes a U-haul conversion on the table. Thanks!
That is a great idea!
0:41 FAIL! hahaha. Hope the wheelie guy is ok
It did look funny but very painful.
i want your lives!! i honestly feel like this is what life is about, there's no better way to live life man, this is amazing and damn beautiful
Thank you again for taking a tour and sharing the MUSEROAMER! We're so stoked! 🤘🏻😊
Andrew you should’ve said “wooohoo” at the end of the video 😂
Very cool build 👍. Awesome use of space
@@chrisludwig9783 Thank you Chris!
I just found this on CZcams. Awesome cuz!!!
I got hooked on videos like this. One of the best designs I seen for a truck. I think they have every thing they need.
FilmiDrishtikon I would have done a diesel heater vs propane “moisture” also mini split ac vs roof mount, more energy efficient JMO
@@leoblumhagen644 yeah, I was really surprised that with all the work they put into it that they did not use a mini-split system, you can run those 24/7/365 off of a good solar/battery setup
Euro Fritz just listened to Goneboondocking his new 5th wheel he’s not going to have solar panels at all. He’s going with a 2 unit mini split 4 to 6 BB lithium and a dual fuel (gas or propane) generator, mostly relying on propane to power he feel he can recharge with 3 to 4 hrs and it’s cost effective over the additional hardware for a full solar setup. Interesting to see how that works out.
@@leoblumhagen644 , the moisture goes out the heaters exhaust system. So unless you vent your exhaust into the vehicle, I guess, but who the hell would do that?
Just great, what a beast. Respect to you and your hard work! Bulletproofing the 6.0 at about $6k (by a pro) is a burden, but once done, the 6.0 is reborn and amazing.
WoW I’m so jealous. I’m 50 yrs old and I just wished I would have thought of doing what you 2- are doing. Great job with the build. The truck looks amazing and the camper/tiny house y’all built is a solid place 👍🏻👍🏻good for you both for going for it. By the way mate you should seriously think 🤔 about marring that Beautiful Lady . Ok thank you for sharing your life 👍🏻👍🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
🇺🇸Friend from Georgia 🇺🇸
I’m from georgia!
Using SIPS (Structural Insulated Panels) is a natural for these RVs. Glad to see you went this route. The beauty of them is they can be made up to 8'x24", and various thickness. They are inherently stiff/strong and bear all sorts of load. And of course, it is completely insulated. You can cut windows/doors, etc., and within reason, not endanger the structural integrity.
I love the retriever 😁
Me too! He’s the best! We take him on all our adventures!
Wetsuits hanging in the shower was an eyesore. Overall, this couple has done an awesome job.
Thanks for featuring some tiny house designs. People who consider living in this type of house would love this. We will send this to our customers to get nice ideas.
I think all the people for sharing their homes with other people and their ideas their values if what you have going there Works keep it going but someone says if it's not broken don't fix it if it works for you it works for you I think it is a really really great idea what you're all doing it shows other people how to do it cuz there's some people just walk into smaller house if they want to live in and it's like what do you go from there but people like this young couple here and other people showing them I think it's really really great that work you don't need a big house and a big apartment and big mortgage payments and Rental payments and Lisas and and that I think it's wonderful what you're all doing cuz it's giving me ideas thank you so much for sharing your camper there it looks really great yet and it's organized
How the hell ... ?
You guys are freaking geniuses.
That is poetry in motion.
thank you for posting this. I just found that earthroamer thing and figured someone would have a decent diy. very cool. I'll post mine in 3 years :)
keep being on the road....love that you have a close circuit TV and dont forget your Gun
Congratulations for your lifestyle and for the truck camper...life is beautiful, enjoy it !
Thank you so much!
This is such a luxurious truck tiny home this is so cool
Thank you! We're really happy with how it came together
Hope the smoke in the PNW isn’t cramping your travels! Once the fires die down it will be gorgeous again.
Oil cooler, EGR cooler, head studs, fuel injection control module and water pump, that's what you gotta watch for on this 6.0L engine Ford used.
Am so jealous of ur dog, he or she is lucky to have u guys
Better than any mass-produced RVs! 😎👍
Thank you so much!
Wow! That is the best build I have ever seen! You can see that you enjoy life to the full! Enjoy guys, and yes I am so jealous! 💚 Safe travels love Jackiex ❤️
Thank you so much for the love Jackie!
Good lord that battery bank cost more than my bus 😂 dope build, I hope I get to a point in life where I can spend multiple straight months building a $100k passion project. Good work!
DAY IN THE LIFE OF KICKER!!! Gotta get the sub woofer sponsor... no more sound bar.
Killer!! Hit the North East!!!!
Andrew, it's great to see you on the Tiny Home Tours channel! Excellent tour, thanks guys!
Superr wat a lovely way to live life u guys are living the the life to the fullest .
Best vehicle/house design I ever seen
This definitely is professionally done, this guy must be a carpenter
Thank you! I had experience building out some other vehicles before this.
Thank you! I had experience building out some other vehicles before this.
that guy on the bike at 0:41 defiantly fell 🤣🤣 i love it !
Wow, it's a professional job!
Thank you! We worked super hard for it!
This project is in incredible and it reminded me why i got addicted to this vids in the first place, great job!
Thank you Jace!
really a huge project converting this truck. Nice and amazing!
Thank you Frank!
6.0l is by far my favorite engine by far. My 250 has a 5.4l gasser in it when it dies i might drop a 6.0l in it or im gonna get a excursion with the 6.0l and make it my overland rig
Cool 😎 meet me near the end of the year when my Earthroamer SX is made
Simple beautiful life you can dream it for keep it up great job guys 🚍 ❤️ 💙 💜
Great design! I am curious how the interior reacts to the flexing of the vehicle in an offroad situation, looking at the furniture, drawers, doors, everything looks so tight with barely any gaps (not criticizing just curious).
We've rallied this thing and thankfully haven't had any issues! The box shouldn't experience much flex at all with the way the mounting knuckles articulate.
Wow. That's the safest and most comfy electric cushioned chair in the world so far?? Who's with me?
Nice build you two! Enjoy your travels and stay safe!
I couldn't imagine wanting to drive one of these things. So many great places can't be reached with this because of how big it is. I drive big vehicles for a living. But I don't wanna do that overlanding.
Love your rig. Happy trails!
😎✌🏻🤙🏻🤘🏻😎
I Love your rig👍
Kudos ....You are Living life to its fullest 💖
Wow 🤩 it’s beautiful you should make more and sell them .
Thank you so much! We thought about it when we started, but with the time it took we would have to charge about the same as EarthRoamers.
Nice Greating from Switzerland.. The Camper its sooooo good... Thanks for the Inspiration
Fantastic build
September 2020 Tiny Home Tours has tons of great ideas here for almost any living space here: Tiny Home, conventional home or apartment. Love the wall of shelves with the flat buttons instead of handles (used on boats). Maybe you should paint the name of your You Tube channel on the outside of your truck. Tip: ideally more AC for your dog. Maybe someone out there has good ideas for more AC (hopefully at a reasonable cost). This information on AC's could be helpful for all pet guardians and builders. G'Day
Wow this is a totally amazing fantastic build. They have thought of absolutely everything. Why would you want/need a house/flat/apartment when you got one of these bad boys/girls. Great well thought out build guys. I would love one of these for sure 👌👍💕💕👏👏

Aloha everyone. Have a good day and stay safe 🙏..
Very nice design. Enjoy👍
I like the guy biffing it on the wheelie
Kicker is living his best life. 😁
Very nice. Travel safe .
Tiny..home
Dios los cuide a los tres
Bendiciones para esta familia.
I am in the process of converting a 26 feet U-haul truck into a tiny home/RV. I'm a retired and disabled veteran and would love to get some input from you. Your cabinets are amazing! I feel that my 26 footer would be a great conversion, specially since its paid for and I already have an awesome handicapped bathtub/shower, an electric macerating toilet, kitchen cabinets and an idea for a queen size raising bed (using garage springs instead of a Happy Jack). I live near Clear Water Beach Florida and will provide full accommodations and boating for your help!
Awesome ride . Very user friendly .
Hi, thank you for your wonderful videos. 1) What is the overall dry weight of your camper ?
2) What is the interior height?
3) What is the exterior height just to the roof (not including the roof rack, etc?)
Thank you 😊
Wow nice tiny home and cute dog
Great couple great work
This video was posted on my birthday
Excelente.... Ese estilo de vida es lo máximo. Felicitaciones
This is really really nice ...the first thing I would've thought of would've been the pass through ...LOL!!! ..you guys must have had an awesome wedding .....
safe travels💞
SO cool we met at Bonneville salt flats when we were out there on the salt flats with our Tiny Home >:) Now I see the photos they got at the front of this video >:) Awesome to see this home done >:)
I just saw it in la ventana Mexico sick ride
I always wonder how these people afford this wonderful life
Hard work and lots of saving.
Amazing! Amazing! 😍😍😍😍 You did a great job! This is one of the best campers I’ve ever seen.
This is cool! I've never seen anything like this.
Heck Yeah ! I'm down with the Muse / Ashley , cruise ..~peace~
Lucky couple..........may u live long
That dog tho.... great video
Great job guys. Jealous. Have many awesome adventures.
Thank you Jim!
What was the total spend on the build? Also working on the road is a must. Well if you want to be out there awhile. What type of work do you guys do? I am looking to reinvent myself and flexibility is key. Thanks and amazing rig and video work!
Sweet rig guys! Looks awesome!
Thank you!
Comfortable and spacious, very well done, I like it 😊👍
AMAZING! This is my dream truck :)
Thank you Brandon!
Pretty cool build. I was surprised you didn’t go with a composting toilet since you are definitely set up for off grid living. Don’t know much about cassette potty’s so maybe I’m missing something! Many happy travels and stay safe!
11:18 Pier 4 of Donner Lake! That's Home!
Very interesting settings
A 41" wheel & tire on the roof over 10' off the ground !!
Drop it to the ground and stand back !!
Tell us how you got it up there ?
Cheers .
We built a custom tire crane on the roof to help get the spare up there!
Awesome, awesome and awesome. In french, we tell GÉNIAL. I want to know how much it cost you to build it.
Thank you! I go into detail on the cost in this video czcams.com/video/rnkzmGhsLfo/video.html
Love your place
This is better than my house....
AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!
Qué bellísimas imágenes!! Muy bonita su casa rodante! Lindo perrito!!
The dog is like..."Yeah, my humans carry me to all the great spots; at zero cost to me, right? Like, I've got them working like...um...dogs, man."
Great car, fun times for you both ... Greetings👑👑👑👑
Utah in the house!👍
Love this but how do you drive under bridges? Seems massively tall.
Judging by the height when he was doing the exterior walkaround, this looks to be 11 or 12ft tall. Nearly every bridge/overpass in the US is 14ft minimum.
13'6" is the average height for overpasses and all utility lines so that semi's can go under.
With the AC and WeBoost on top it's 13'6 so we fit under most overpasses in the US!
