    outstanding, you guys are a cut above. Love what you've done. The fact that you're completely electric gives you freedoms that propane wouldn't allow if you're off the grid for extended periods. Well done....

    No other channel has this amount of RV Nerdism and Geekiness --- I am super impressed now. "Let me just 3D print up some latches and hooks and a roof liner right now" - wow. Top to bottom geeked out info like nothing else on the YT. Thumbs up.

    One of the best {by far} Self build Overlander Rigs on CZcams ! You have managed to design and Build a Large enough comfort wise living space yet not too large to hinder your Deep Back Country OffRoad abilities. I appreciate that you built your rig for you and your tastes and needs rather than for the style and impact that some people seek through affirmation. If your rig was any larger it would hinder your offroad capabilities and if your rig was any smaller you would loose your comfort levels significantly ...IMHO... I would do things differently but this is what is great about our lives in that we can be individuals but still respect and admire others who seek an Experience driven life rather than a mundane and couch potato existence. Again...IMHO ... kudos to you both, and I hope that maybe in the near future our paths might cross so we can compare and share...until then Good Luck and Enjoy the Show this Universe has in store for us all !!!

    Hi guys, one of my first comments on CZcams to tell you are my HEROES. Your build is more than inspiring, RV/Overlanding companies should be learning from you. The level of automation/analysis detail and practicality is jawdroping.
    1. How do you feel about a 'cooler' type fridge? Is it annoying to have to look for something thats in the botto? Would you consider having a standing fridge where you have the storage.
    2. How long can you go off grid? Whats the first thing to go, water?
    3. The shower you are planning, would you consider making it in the nature head corner? You could make the toilet hide in the side with slideouts and the shower space could be hanging storage that you tilt out when you need to use the space.
    4. For the cabin wouldnt you prefer another screen for the vehicle sensors (Turbo oil etc) something like a Motec dash control.
    Again, you are amazing, please continue to share your videos and ideas.

    • @Everlanders
      @Everlanders  Před 6 lety +5

      Wow!! Thanks! Comments like yours really make my eyes pop out of my face! And so many have used the word "Hero" lately. It blows my mind - Heartwarming!
      1. A top opening, chest cooler/fridge/freezer will always be much more efficient. This is because the cold air is more dense, it wants to sink to the lowest spot. In a chest style cooler, this cold is contained when the lid is opened. In a standing side opening Fridge, All your precious cold air all falls out the side when the door is opened. Getting to the bottom is not too hard with the removable baskets. This of course has drawbacks for accessibility, (you must enter from the top) which I tried to address with that sliding box.
      2. Weeks! The stainless kegs can be connected in series for longer periods away. We have 2 or 3 kegs normally, but have room for up to 8. (20L each) This would last us about 14 days. Another reason we like these kegs is that they can be removed and carried to be refilled at non-RV spots. We've topped up at small town diners, public water fountains, etc... For much longer trips we will have one keg dedicated as "dirty water" collected from lakes and streams and then we can treat it and then pressurize it and push it through a filter system and into our main kegs. If the water is from a pretty clear stream, we just heat it up and shower without treating too...
      3. We considered it, but no... The aluminum entryway pan was welded to collect the water and so if we need to shower indoors (ie, below freezing) it'll be there. Another reason is height, The roof is only 2cm taller than me (Jason) So the entryway will have more room to wave your arms, washing hair etc. The curtain will wrap 360º around you and the rod will be modular so it can also attach on the outside of the truck (near the utility door) to have a curtained outdoor shower area too. But most of the time we are a long way from the next human anyway, so we really enjoy the outdoor shower...
      4. Not Really... I have a bluetooth OBDII reader that I use with Torque Pro on my phone when troubleshooting or when I need more data than my physical gages provide. I could also just toggle this onto my overhead screen, but haven't had the need yet.
