2005 F-450 4x4 Utility Body w/ Starcraft Pine Mountain Lonestar Pop-top Camper

Took advantage of some wasted space in the aux fuel storage compartment. Added a 6th 3 gallon Rotopax, giving me just short of 50% aux fuel to main tank ratio. Total of 58 gallons. I plan to remove the electric fuel pump station setup on the shelf, and use the available power for something more useful.
Before and after:

A cancelled Oregon Coast camp trip turned into a few morning project completions. Self-leveling sealed some front roof edges, and cleaned-up wiring to the National Luna (found a damaged/broken power wire) for some nice cold results. After 24hrs, battery voltage dropped .1 volt, with no solar assistance. Fridge should be able to run indefinitely, even with minimal solar charge.

Kelderman Front Air Ride Leveling Kit installed. Drives awesome. Smooths out rough road. No diving front end under braking. More stable side to side sway.

Leveling Kit gives 1.5" of lift, and includes Rancho RS9000XL 9 position adjustable shocks.

Best profile photo at the moment. Will get better rake photo soon.

So, I use a GoalZero Yeti 1400, between my Jeep GC and the truck, for powering LED awning lighting, charging ********, etc. Wanted a clean way to carry the GZ in the truck, without putting it inside the camper.

They said it couldn't be done. Whoever they are. I removed the false/rear panel of the center console to allow for a perfect space for the GZ to rest. Easy access to all controls, charging and output ports. Simple removal to move to the Jeep or house.

1st pic is looking forward from the back seat, at the rear of the center console. There was as bulky rear panel, that is strictly cosmetic.

With GZ in place. Charges while driving via inverter, while camping via solar.

Had a cracked factory plastic step. Replaced with Iron Cross HD Step Bars.

Finally got the front air ride height and pressure dialed in. She now sits 1.5" taller with the leveling kit. Ride is very nice.

Looks good! That is quite the rig.
