    I get what you are saying, I never put in a bed in the back of my first Tacoma 4x4 with camper top because I had to haul different loads in it. So, I slept on the truck bed with a backpacking mattress. Not too comfortable. I did have to laugh when you put your cooler in the heated space. I hung mine on a big, flat metal S hook that I hung over the tailgate and could close the top window/door over. But, you are right, if you have milk or dairy in it (me, milk for coffee) you have to make sure it doesn't freeze. Your sleeping bag reminds me of the down one (that I still use) that I bought 45 years ago for 2 and a half weeks salary. Some things have to happen whatever the price. It is good to see someone that says "Why can't I go camp with what I've got?" Be safe!

    Hey man! Just to let you know I laughed out loud when you "kissed the cap", on the beer. I too have done that on many occasions. I like Mickey's malt liquor. Resealable caps save beer!
    Rock on bro.

  • @Charles53412
    @Charles53412 3 года назад

    A little helpful tip for you. You can take a heater core, a small fan and mount them in the back. You can heat up the back while your driving. So when you arrive it's already nice and warm. or in case of emergency just start up the truck. They can be hooked up, to be removable during the warmer months. I use mine when I have no access to power. I've never used a gas heater using this system.

    Great setup! I have something similar but with an 8ft bed/cap. Mx series Windoors and headliner. F150 supercab 8ft bed. My setup gives me so much room that I have a 24 inch shelf at the front laying across the top of the bed. Storage or another sleeping platform.

    The best thing to do when get burnt (put tooth paste on it) it really works I use it all the time keeps it from blistering. Hope you are ok. Take care and be more careful. I work in an assistant living facility I'm the cook so I get burnt a lot and sometimes it's really bad But my tooth paste saves me. So please try it next time

    Lol binge watching today since it's raining and cold in Wisconsin, place your thumb in the snow to bring the blood flow back to that part and the burning feeling will ease up.. I'm good at getting burnt fingers, steam burns suck too.. so far all the videos I've watched are awesome.. thank you!! From Wisconsin, we're close enough to being nieghbors..lol

    It has been cold here as well in Kansas. I thought about truck camping in it, but said not this time lol. Dang that sucks burning the finger and spilling the water. I've burned my finger many times. I think I need to start eating more salad. It's starting to warm up here and I'm near Kansas City. Thanks for taking me along on this cold truck camping adventure. Stay safe and have a wonderful evening my friend.

    Mate, I live in Brisbane Australia. I just googled the conversion when you mentioned you'd reached temps as low as -24 f & it equates to -31 celsius. Brisbane is a subtropical city our max temps during Summer months normally reach 30 to 35 degrees c & the humidty is the killer up around the 70-80 %. During our winter months our days are lovely around 25 degrees celsius & our nightly min around the 5-10 degree mark. I feel cold at 20 degrees c and that's when my trackies go on.
    Yeah I know I'm a sooky lady lol
