      Troy used 18 guage steel flat stock screwed to the wall studs behind the sheeting.

    Something for people to think about when building their camper.
    I noticed this gentleman has mounted his spare tire on the driver's side, biased towards the rear. Side mountingis a great solution for people building a trailer with a reqr ramp door. However, if one were to get a flat while traveling on the highway, interstate or even a 2lans road or highway, they likely need topull off on the shoulder of the road. The shoulder beimg on the right side of the road. Having the tire mounted on the driver's side when cause a person to have to stand in the lane of oncoming traffic to het the spare off the trailer side. It would be much mich safer to hang the tire on the passenger side. Along with that benefit, a perso could fabricate a device to hang on the tire with a shelf or whatever. Giving additional usable built in space on the outside when set up at camp

      Makes sense, but what happens when your flat is on the drivers side , your there anyway.
      The right side of camper is where you entertain, and it would look bad and, in the way,

    • @billanddeb
      @billanddeb  2 месяца назад +1

      Changing a flat tire on the hiway is dangerous no matter where it's mounted. We just had our first blowout a few days ago, on the drivers side. Our spare tire is mounted on the back. It would have been much better if the blowout had been on the passenger side, but obviously, the tires had a mind of their own. 😃

    I’d like to buy a 7’ X 14’ all aluminum trailer with 7’ high roof so that I can raise the bed when not in use.
    Having a “V” nose is a must. The extra 2’ of the V would be a great place for the kitchen, or at least most of it.
    Having a shower is a must and I’d prefer a cassette toilet.
    I’ll equip my trailer with the ability of both Shore power and Solar power.
    I will definitely be insulating it very well, as it our winter daytime highs are around 15-25 degrees F and hovering around zero at night.
    There’s only certain places that I can camp during our winter months because we get 5-7 feet of snow.
    But during the summer we can go almost anywhere.
    The trailer needs to have a torsion axle for higher ground clearance. I can install the grey water tank under the trailer and store the fresh water inside the trailer.
    A Mini Split heat and A/C unit would be great for our needs.
    My wife doesn’t like to camp like me, but I’ve got some good friends who also like to camp and having a “Guys weekend” is fun. Our wives have “Gals nights” and weekends, so us guys enjoy getting together for hiking and fishing trips.

    Like# 908 - I wasn't able to get an extended tongue from the factory so I hired a welder to do the extension. I think I paid $100 and that was the best $100 I've spent yet. I'm going back to have him make it removable for another layer of security against theft!
    Love this Build, definitely one of my top 10 favorite builds!

    Hi Bill & Deb. We’ve been watching for years and subscribers for years or so we thought!!! Was just watching this video and much to my surprise we were NOT subscribed. Not sure why I checked but was completely flabbergasted that it showed we were not.
    Suggestion you may want to ask people to check their subscription status they may be shocked like we were!!

      We watch every video and thankfully you are easy to find. I don’t think we’ve missed a video since the first time we watched. It was the walk thru on the red trailer and we don’t plan on missing any videos you put out. Love the good next door neighbor feel of your channel.
