Awesome video! I liked most of your mods, definitely nice to get something more affordable so you can adapt and change anything to fit your preferences and make it work for you guys! I liked how you were able to just drive that thing onto the beach!
Been there, done that in our Spirit Deluxe! Best beach camping you can do! There wasn’t anyone around us for almost a mile either way! Gorgeous!
Enjoyed the video! We’re 5 months away from delivery now. You’ve definitely made us want to take our Casita to the beach!
Get all the options. People who don't get the furnace or canopy always regret it later. Cheers!
It’s sooo worth the wait 😃
I’m always impressed with your dedication to mods on your Casita. A bit jealous actually! Great to see y’all eating and drinking like kings and queens on the beach. And the video was compelling enough for me to watch the entire 37 minutes!
Guns, flashlights, and more guns. I approve this message. 👏
I just bought a 93 Casita Freedom Deluxe used today. It's my upgrade from a Honda Element for camping on Cape Lookout/Davis Island NC. Beach camping is the best!!
@@johnnymoran180 your 1993 Casita is proof that the Casita holds its value. How many people can say they have a 31 year old camper that still works great?
I noticed you reinforced your refrigerator door, we did the same. We have a 12 volt fridge too, it’s one of our favorite purchases for our Casita, no more ice runs. Thanks for sharing your mods, we are always looking for good ideas.
Your vid is so helpful. I’ve been to Port A twice already this year and I live in DFW. Going to Rice next week to look at Casita’s. Thanks for taking your time to do these vids!
Thanks so much for the video! We pick up our Casita Independence in January 2023. So fun to see all the mods. We are also planning a composting toilet. My husband really liked your tailgate storage.
Great Video, along with the Padre one, very nice. We ordered our Independence Casita in August 21, expect delivery Dec 22. Your video will definitely help me plan out one of our initial trips. I love the coast but living in North Texas just can't afford extended stays. Now with the Casita it's on. Ive had them wire ours for the External solar connections, lots of your mods are very nice can't wait. Surprised y'all haven't been fishing didn't see any tackle set up. Thanks for the Great videos keep em going.
When we ordered our Casita it was a 15 month lead time. Ive been told it's well into 20+ months now, and yeah, we got as many add on's as we could. especially the furnace.
WoW! Love your DIY mods. ... especially the truck tailgate storage trick. Kudos! Also, I enjoyed listening to your free style narrative ... no fake actor skit.
thanks cheers!
Thanks for leaving the vid rolling. Loved the beach!
So you guys drive down from Decatur, we are from the Roanoke/Keller neck of Fort Worth, and drive down to NPI 2 times a year. We made a huge mistake this year and went to Galveston for our April trip, it’s far to windy and Stuart beach was closed (might have been good to know) will try Galveston another time, but for our 2nd trip we take the end of August we are going back to Port Aransas, Mustang Island, White Capped beach etc. because driving on the beach is so great for anyone with a rig, or like in our case, there is a person requiring forearm crutches, walking on wet sand is far better than shuffling 200 yards thru hot, soft, dry sand!
Our last trip to galveston we took the ferry to the north and camped on that beach, and it was awful, everyone kept speeding past us up till 5 am blaring loud music. We weren't able to get any sleep lol.. thats the summer crowd for ya.
You are really smart and handy.
Love your mods.
I’m honestly jealous of that rig.
WOW! love the mod you have for the truck. Awesome!
Just started looking at Casitas. Been an Airstream lover for decades but they have out priced my dream of being a Bambi owner. Casitas look to be more durable and quality built without the fancy price tag. Thanks for the down to earth video on all the great mods you have made and how you enjoy your Casita. I have already saved half your Amazon links to my future camper purchase list.
Thanks for the kind words, happy camping!
Casita prices have dramatically increased since 2018, when we bought ours. Perhaps the demand will decrease along with prices due to the current economy
I watched your whole video because you accidentally gave me a detailed view of the stock Casita. RUclips is currently locking in that a bit.
Thank u for the beautiful,ocean view. I appreciate that.
Wow! Loved the Casita Mods! The food looked so yummy, and the beach was Amazing. I have a 2021 Casita that I bought from a Lady in Northern CA. I have not used it yet. I bought a new 5th Wheel Grand Design 310GK a couple months after I bought my Casita. I had several things that needed done in new Rig. Can't wait to take my little Lady Bug out to Oceanside to my favorite RV Park called Paradise By The Sea. I have my Special Need Son that I do everything for, and I have the packing, planning on my own. I think once I get it down like my 5th Wheel it will be easy. I bought a matress that they make for Casitas that is round on one side, and a matress for the little table area for Josh. I am leaving the full size matress up all the time. I also have a Clam that is like an extra living room. Looked like a Fun vacation.
Thanks. Happy camping!
man camping on the beach with nobody around, thats too cool!!!
"LIFE IS BETTER IN A CASITA"
You speak the truth
The only way to live. Thanks for the video.
Nice mods. Great video. I'm picking up my SD in August I got some great ideas, Thanks!
Awesome vid, came to check out the Casita, but really enjoyed the cooking, nice work.
The Airhead composting toilet… 👌🏼. I just line the toilet with a bag when dry camping. However, I don’t discard the idea of replacing it one day with an Airhead. You made it sound easy. I wouldn’t add the urine diversion. So, that would be one less step for me. Thanks for sharing.
when you line the toilet do you use saw dust? cant you put 1 and 2 in the saw dust? and does it stink?
@@l.p.boudreaux1548 I’m using cat litter 😆 🐱. I strategically place it where it will grab liquids. I don’t tend to leave the bag in there. I do my business and get rid of it.
Love the tailgate mod ❤️❤️❤️
awesome
What a cute couple❤ I so want a casita...
You need one!
Dang! Love it that you were able to get a compost toilet in the casita!! Did you do it all yourself or needed to have the Casita makers do it?
Installed ourselves in driveway. Wasn't bad at all
You said Little House Customs installed the Monroe shocks. I want some! But I live 2500 miles away and have to have a local shop install them. What is the Monroe shocks number that fits a Casita? Thanks for sharing all your mods, your camper is really great.
Thank u for a great presentation! Your wife needs a few safety utensils… looks yummy. You guys r livin the life…
Great video, thanks! What time of year was this filmed? Love the weather!
Great mods 👍 what were all your components for the portable solar panel ? I see there's 2 prices 219 or 186 which one did you get if you don't mind me asking.
you need the one with the controller, its the 219 one, the controller is the smart computer needed to monitor and change charge settings, and you need to tell it what chemical make up your battery is, ie. agm, lithium etc.. click on the video details, i put links to all the components for you. cheers!
@@rwallaceiv Thank you for your immediate response 👍
Y’all are living right!
best vid on casita living, mucho thanks cuz just what I needed. 11:50 where did you get that awesome tailgate mod?
hfabusa.com/ for tailgate mod
Great video. Can you tell me what brand composting toilet you have? Did yo7 8nstall it or Little Home on the Road? Thanks so much.
AIR HEAD composting toilet, and we installed it ourselves, but little home can do it for you. have them plum the urin into the black tank, thats a good option.
@@rwallaceiv thank you so much.
Your pot probably holds about 2 gallons
Do you have enough storage for 2 weeks of food and cloths? How much water storage?
1 week is ideal, for 2 weeks you would need to bring a water bladder in your truck bed to refill with. Speaking of boondocking of course.
SWhat brand is the tailgate storage on your pickup?

I worked picking blueberries for a company and they rejected any berries smaller than a nickel, so your blue berries would've been rejected, any berries that were rejected the owner would just give to us workers 😋 yummy
What size auto do you have to pull your cute trailer off what size is your...length
I tow with a chevrolet colorado, its 18 foot length vehicle, if thats what your asking.
No I said that wrong.. When they say Kent of trailer is that the hitch included?
Howdy from Fort Worth!
I'm in Decatur! Cheers!
Just an FYI, your link to the fridge on Amazon is the same as the gas can 😁, I want to get 1 of those fridges, can you correct the link or just tell me the brand, thank you
amzn.to/3QZDnfz lion cooler by aco power be sure to get the one with the battery
@rwallaceiv thank you brother
I see no sway control hitch?? I am guessing not necessary for this camper, my 2022 colorado has a 7000 lb tow rating
No sway, she pulls straight.
@rwallaceiv I've been looking at a lot of videos of this brand of camper, everyone seems to love them, we live in Florida by the way
i have nothing but great things to say about it, and the price is cheaper than others, and the fiberglass will last forever . cheers!@@woofman4796
@rwallaceiv yup, I agree, you and your wife stay safe, thank you for replying back, Texas is beautiful, I'm a retired truck driver, good night sir
We pull our Casita with a Chevy 1500 Silverado. We bought the Anderson hitch when we picked up our camper. May not need it but we're glad we bought it.
