As a retired Marine, I love that paint job!

I am going the same route in my ambo. The price is right and I didn't want a propane catalytic heater in mine. To Bob's point, I used a ton of them throughout my career in the Marine Corps and found that carbon really only becomes an issue if you run them on low for long periods of time. We...

Looks Like 1300w. What type of solar controller are you going with for all that beautiful sun power?

Welcome and look forward to following along your process!

I'm too cheap for an awning haha. I just use one of those pop up 10x10 canopies. But that is a great point for someone to consider!!

Glad the solar worked out. I like the mounts you used. I saved it for when I install my solar down the road.

It is not removable, but it does not protrude further than the mirrors, so I should be able to keep it attached to the truck haha

Thanks, it does work perfect as a hand rail.

Well, I did not get around to installing the back up camera, but I did get my ladder cut, assembled, and installed...

I think that is a great idea, creative thinking!

Looks good scooter. I like the large screen.

Thank you, I am happy with how it came out. I went with a 6" memory foam mattress so it is comfortable for sitting and sleeping. One more mod I need to make is foot rest for the kids while sitting on it as a bench as it is a little high.

Pat, modifying the door is a good idea and a possibility, but was not really a concern for me as the plan is the back doors being the main entrance. But if that changes, your idea would be a good one.

I insulated the top of the inside and wired a small exhaust fan to draw out the heat. I may increase the fan size if it becomes an issue. Right now the fan is wired to a switch, but I will probably wire it to the ACs circuit so when the compressor engages the fan will come on.

Correct, it is the interior bottom cabinet, and yes, the door will remain open when using the AC. I isolated that 2/3 of the cabinet that has the AC in it, and cut through the bottom of the truck for the heat exhaust from the AC to go outside. Hopefully that makes sense.
