Very nice job. Thank you for sharing and showing how that model can be built out.
Great job on your Rouser, a 2 yr update on your camper build would be great! I plan to do a similar build except L-shaped fixed beds (no set up) for two adults that is also a couch with a swivel table where the two beds meet and small kitchen in the front like yours. Thanks for sharing.
Awesome build out
I haven't seen a better build out of this camper👍
Thank you. Now, I need to put it to the test. Ha
@@BenLaurenzi looking forward to your next video
Very excited to follow your Rouser adventures, as that's what I have decided on...so glad to have found your channel, have fun with the Rouser...
👍
That's awesome!
Excellent build on your camper. Thanks for sharing. 😊
Very well done !
Looks ready to take out for an adventure!
Looks Good👍
Fantastic job!
You did an excellent addition. Thanks for posting.
Ben, Wowwwww man! AMAZING job on the video and the build!!! Let's GOOOOOO!!!!
I had to watch this video over and over to cool 😎
It looks great! I like everything about it.
Thanks so much!
Very cool design. Can tell you put a lot of thought into it.🙂
Great video on your Runaway! I like this model and especially that I can fit it out the way that works best for us. Can't wait for a trial run!
Thank you!
Really beautiful.
Thank you! Cheers!
That looks pretty cool. Nice job!
👍
That makes me want to run out and get a Rouser. I really like how you upgraded it.
Looks great Ben! Enjoy all your adventures in it! 🙂 (We watched all the ads too 👍)
You're the best!
I love it! Nice job! Mine is on order, should be here soon. Can't wait to customize.
Congrats! Have fun with the customization.
Dude!..........you got another youtube channel??? Cant wait to see this at a fly-in!
Great job Ben. I have been working on my new cargo trailer for a month and hopefully a few weeks away from finishing but you have definitely given me some new ideas to possibly implement.
Thanks. Glad to hear that. It is the type of project that can be fun and at the same time exhausting. Hope to see you soon.
You could likely run the 5000BTU A/C with a decent portable generator. My son and I played scenario paintball for years, travelled all over the SouthEast and lived out of a 18' utility trailer (on the weekends) that I setup much like your outfit. A generator makes a welcome addition to a setup like that.
You did a fantastic job. Very impressed by your electrical system. All the wires are nicely concealed. Amy at How We Roll RV... We are the TN Runaway dealer.
Thank you Amy!
Good. job Ben. We can have a Runaway corral at the next fly-in.
We would love that!
HI Ben, well I have watched this twice. Best thing is no ads!!! I know that doesnt help you out, but I like when there are no ads!! You mentioned NC, where are you exactly? I am in charlotte and would love to come check it out before i order one from Fla...thanks and great video
Thank you for sharing your build journey! Can you tell me if you have weighed the camper with your additions?
How does your Roser tow? What was the starting weight and the finished weight? Love your series of upgrade videos.
Fabulous build! What is the height of the bed, and would you consider building out the interior of this model camper for other people??
Awesome job! If you ever decide to sell this beautiful camper, please let me know.
Hey Ben!
Any future vlogs taking the camper out?
I am really loving this build!
Yes, I would like to share some future adventures. So far, we have just had a few local trips to test everything out. I have considered making a trip to Florida in January. But my 2022 goal is to do quite a bit of exploring in Western North Carolina in the camper!
You did an aswsoke
Simple set up with kids . There not out there for a family . I love the bench / nice uo to an bigger bed idea
Hey Ben it has been eight months since your last post in regard to the Rouser. We have one on order and should be picking it up in August 2022. Any new insights now that you had the chance to test it out on the road as well as camping? Anything that you would have done different? Anything that you really enjoy about this camper? We really liked your build and are curious how it has worked out for you and your family.
Very clean and organized set up. Curious to know where you purchased what looks like a thermometer and what brand it is?
Thanks for the not Jim. Here is the link. www.amazon.com/Humidity-Thermometer-Hygrometer-Temperature-Greenhouse/dp/B07Z77FK4C?th=1
Nicely built. I'm presently building a camper; can't wait to see the outcome of it. Where did you purchase the door?
Thank you. I did not build the camper, the door came with. But I did do the modifications inside. All the best to you on your build!
Once I found your videos, I had to watch them on your modification of the Rouser. Great job!!! How has the Rouser held up as a camper? Any issues on the axle, tires, body, etc.? I had heard some negative on them but still would like to consider one. Thanks Ben.
So far, so good. No issues with the Rouser. But to be fair, I have not put on tons of miles. I'm very happy with it though.
Thanks a lot. I think the electrical might give me some challenge. Never done any of that. Nice to see someone has done the exact same thing I want to do tho with a campers interior. Thanks again! @@BenLaurenzi
Fantastic and impressive build out. Being 6' tall do you have room to sleep side to side? Also, did that door/screen door combo come with the trailer? Or did you add the screen door after the initial purchase of the trailer? If so where did you get the add on/aftermarket screen door? Safe and happy travels to you and your family. Thanks for sharing.
Yes, I do sleep side to side with my legs bent. The screen door combo came with the trailer. Thanks for checking out the channel.
Love what you have done!! What is the weight of the trailer after your improvements?
Thank you. I really need to pull it up onto a industrial scale. But it started out less than 1000 pounds and I guess it is still under 1400 pounds.
Ben, Great build out, what was the total added weight, did you measure that?
I never did get the total weight. I should just drive onto a scale at a landfill or similar. But the original trailer was less than 900 lbs, and I would guess that I must have added 400 - 500 lbs.
Hello Ben, After watching your videos several, several, several times, I'm very much considering buying a Rouser myself. How is it holding up after 2 years? Do you still have it? Any wear and tear? Any problems? I greatly appreciate your response. Thank you and have a bless day.
Hi Jonathan, thanks for reaching out. Yes, the Rouser has been holding up great for me. No issues with the camper. Some of the 3m tab that I used to secure hooks and conceal wiring has fallen off the walls. I will fix in the spring.
I looked through all the videos trying to find the SketchUp files. Can you post those somewhere?
I dont want the tall runaway I would like the 5 x 8 with only AC and three doors with windows. The rear must have a large door for hauling stuff when im not camping. Must be light so a small SUV can tow with little decrease in MPGs. I do like some of your additions but they wont work on the lower ceiling campers. My SUV can have a gally and keep the runaway for sleeping. 73
I think having a rear door would be awesome for hauling stuff and access.
What is your tow vehicle? Nicely done.👍👍
Thank you! In this video I was using an Audi Q7. I have also pulled the camper with a BWM X3 which has a tow rating of 4,400 lbs (I think the camper is less than 1,400).
@@BenLaurenzi thank you. Looks really nice 👍.
Ben, have you ever seen a "Disco-bed" in a Rousser ??? Cajun
I have not but that is a good idea, if the dimensions work out in your layout. - Ben
How wide is the top bed? Can two adults fit? Amazing job.
So the bed is 6 ft by 4 ft. We intend to fit two adults sometimes. I image that would be a squeeze for many.
@@BenLaurenzi Is it a standard full/double size bed? Based on those dimensions and with it being 6 feet long, that won't fit according to Runaway's website that has the interior dimensions
Very cool but is it stable on the roads most of the weight 60% should be at the front...
To be honest, I have not broken down the weight distribution. But so far it has polled very nicely. We’ll see what happens over time.
Wow! You could sell that package. You're sleeping sideways?
Thank you! Yes, sleeping sideways. - Ben
Hey Ben would you do this for my camper, how much would you charge for this mod?
Hey Mark, I am honored that you would ask me. But I’m sorry I’m not able to do any more modifications. I just don’t have time for it.
Are these still being made?

shore power ? bogus... buy a nice small honda gas generator. They are super quiet and run a long time on a full tank of gas
