3 years later and this video was really awesome for my needs! It’s been 19 years since I had a pickup truck and I’m finally back in the game. Thank you for being specific about each piece, down to the straps!
I'd slip a trash bag roll in between and thread it through one of those spaces in order to have easy access because you always have to bag something up whether it's to throw away or something else.
Ummm. They're allot of places online that have 9 and 5.56 and it's on the shelves of alot of the box stores I've been into. I just prefer to buy online in bulk. That's were your going to get the best deals. Good luck ammo hunting. I buy reloads from a friend of mine that are very affordable. I use those on the range. So go make some friends. It might solve your "ammo problem".
What is the Canadian Prepper channel? It is an excellent presentation, with honest reviews of innovative equipment and prepping ideas. I am continually amazed at all the quality videos and wealth of knowledge presented
I have a love-hate relationship with storing things in my vehicle. Primarily due to seasonal temperatures. Fire extinguishers, bear spray, first aid kits, certain electronics, ...Etc. So in the most extreme parts of winter and summer,… Carrying my truck bag in and out of the house is unavoidable.
@@teacopem When parked outside in the elements… Let’s say in winter… Temperatures can drop below recommended storage limits for many items. In summer, of course, just the opposite. Vehicle temperatures can exceed safe storage limits for even fire extinguishers. Same for bear spray… Etc. Various salves and creams within a first aid kit can be frozen or rendered ineffective by heat. Adhesives on a Band-Aid can become worthless even. Etc. etc.
Friend: Hey Cp will you help me move my couch to the new house? Cp: Sorry can't not enough room in the the bed I'd have to take out all my survival gear. Friend: If you don't want to help just tell me.
Nice video, you need six USB C charging points, for your torches (flash lights), ham radio's, plug in light and phone charging. Keep up the good work 👍
This comment doesn't involve the topic of the video, but more so of the channel. To be fair, I honestly believe you deserve more hype. Really coming strong for 2021 with the new and updated videos. You continue to produce quality and in quantity clear and dynamic content. I thoroughly appreciate it, as I am sure so many others do as well. Thanks, I wish you continued success. 🤙
This system looks interesting and very useful for my area of Alaska. Having tools and survival gear at the ready in a winter storm here can literally mean the difference between life and death! I'm planning to add bed drawers to my Ram for recovery gear like tow chains, tree straps, tire traction cables, etc., so this would allow for additional storage solutions.
The first time I get a large paycheck, I’m gonna be getting my prep stuff in line, organized, and maintained. Watching your videos are so helpful and inspires me to keep slowly getting the hang of things. I’m a relatively new prepper and your videos are so helpful!
Reminds me a bit of my old WORKVAN organizer, or campervan with Bins and shelving. 😎👍💯🌟🌟🌟🌟 All i am using; is some heavy duty bins with wheels, from home depot..and ratchet straps, I think I am up for an upgrade, soon. 11:21 , My wife , loves her bug out roll in the vehicle...for her work trips...thanks Nate for all your good products and fast delivery system.
I would suggest tinting the windows of your camper shell. Use as dark of a tint as possible that way someone does not see and thus tempted to steal your gear.
Use that 3m anti-shatter window film, makes it extremely difficult to bust open the windows. You see guys pelting a brick at it in videos leaving just a small mark or crack.
I like the idea. One of the things I was thinking during the video is to organize based on need, and groupings of things that you might use together. For example anything that you would need in an immediate emergency should be loaded in a way that could access them the quickest; fire extinguisher, pry-bar, radio etc. Good video.
I lived in a customized Honda Ridgeline Overland roof-top tent awnings shower bathroom everything completely off-grid one-year organization is the key to success always great information sir thank you🎥📰☠🇺🇸🍺
It would be nice if the side panel was mounted on slides so you could pull the whole panel out and not have to crawl onto the bed to access everything.
You need to make the suggestion to the manufacturer. But I suspect they already tried the rail system and it is either outside of a normal price range or it would require adding a weight limit to the system as the rails pulled out would put additional stress on the mounting brackets. As it stands now, you have practically no weight limits other than whatever the mounting brackets are rated for. But with all that said. I like your suggestion. It was also one of the first things I thought to myself as I watched the video. CP is younger and more agile than I am. By the time I got inside my truck and got to the gear I stowed on the rails, the emergency would already be over.
or alternatively mounted with a hinge that allowed it to swing open and use the narrow space between the tool wall and the side of the truck. i know it is not much space but I would load that with softer gear like tarps etc.
Custom cut some black cordura nylon covers, and put neyodium magnets around the edges. Quick to pull off but covers your gear. A thief can look in your window and see lots of juicy items to steal right now as is.
I was thinking along this line as well. Instead of covers on the gear I would try and find some one-way window film to put on the topper instead though. That way everything stays accessible but shielded from wandering eyes.
We call those a camper shell here in the South but yes they do come in handy. Especially if you're hauling off the dead bodies and don't want folks to notice. 😂🤣😂
I would add Tint Film to the windows. Black Film is always available at the Auto Parts shops which provides reduced visibility from the outside in and good visibility from the inside out. The Big Box DIY stores have Frosted Film for light penetration into the truck bed, but poor visibility out.
Michael Hearne -sounds like fun. Do you barbeque them? We have some wild hogs just starting to invade, but it's so far north, I expect smaller herds and "eventually" bigger animals. Do you hunt at night?
If your looking to save TIME then look at the secure tool attachments that are mounted inside Fire Trucks. When ever they started coming out with those black rubber grip ones (that you have) everyone on the trucks complained. Those metal springy type of brackets that hold poles.shovels and axes worked best for quick use, but the black rubber ones still will get the job done-just with more fuss.
Clearly CP is walking on his hands, he have guns the size of my thigh (okay not that much, but close). Was thinking about a custom rack for my car, seems like a great product. Take care!
I haven't read the comments so I don't know if it's been suggested already. You could put your bed at the top of the cap (truck topper or whatever you call it) so it can be pulled down. Then you can keep other things in the bed of the truck and still have room to sleep above it.
There are several vids on modifying your FatMax tool to make it more useable. I bought a few and modd'ed them and being the king of finding/rolling up on car wrecks both on and off duty, the mods the thin the pry points a bit and cut off the spur are well worth the effort.
Great set up! Only real problem I see is that people can look in the windows and see everything you have. Maybe hang some nylon covers over the stuff at least. Grate system over the windows, alarm system. Etc. It needs something to protect access to it.
And a P.S. for those of us whose knees are damaged or getting old: A pair of "hard cap" knee pads (decent-quality ones, not the $4.99 foam junk), tucked in under the taillight housing, can save a lot of pain. Good ones can be had for $15 - $25. It's worth a few bucks extra to get the 'waterproof" ones lined with closed-cell foam. You don't need the multi-part hinged "all-day" tyoe. It may seem a small thing, but a set of these that stay in the truck box can keep you mobile, and that can be important. They're useful whether crawling into the truck bed, or changing a tire. Your knees will thank you.

It's nice to know I'm not the only one that carries around a full-size Stanley Fat Max Fubar in the back of my truck. My canopy windows are glass, tinted, but someone could still see inside. I would be a little concerned about having nice tools on display. If it were me I would cut a piece of black fabric that would cover the panel of gear that could detach easily either with grommets, snaps, or Velcro.
Just a thought for those of us handy folks. ...I have numerous flat perferated steel. In older cities you can find old cast iron radiator "screens" that protected curious little hands from being burned. ...those are 1" squares. Also, have some perffed round holed material from old dozer rad protectors.
Good timing, just Installed the diamond back cover, looking forward to truck mod videos. Thanks for the effort and time you put into this channel. Long time lurker. ✌
Great video thanks for the ideas. If you want to save $400-$700 though just get some wood and paint it black and drill holes in the wood and buy some bolts (likely m6) that will attach to your bed side and you can have the same thing basically for under $100 total.
I really like the idea of carrying gear on the truck bed wall. We keep some gear in our truck because we’ve had experiences that led us to be more independent and ready for anything. For instance just three weeks ago my 29 year old son saved an elderly lady from what could have been a burning car after an accident ruptured her gas tank. Her door was smashed shut and my son had to use brute force to get it open. That Fat Max bar would have come in handy. I just couldn’t stand it if I was in that situation and couldn’t get someone out of a car. EMS was in route but things still can happen. Nice to be ready!
Nate, every wrong has a right. I mean the fact that this unit doesn’t allow you to easily remove an item can be a benefit as someone breaks into your truck. It can also hold more securely while you’re going over big bumps. I like the way it looks and could see that in my Yukon.
That bed cover is a MUST in SHTF. Tip- if you are getting vibrations/noise from any accessories you mount try using a foam or rubber roll of gasket. Rubber washers on mounting points help too.
Hey I was down at my local recycling center (tiny town) and they have a "fee stuff" shed and while I was browsing the books it occured to me, I've never heard you do a video on entertainment after the apocalypse. In an age where most of us get our entertainment from movies, TV or just browsing online, people need to make sure they have a nice library of books for SHTF. Maybe you could do a video on this because lots of people may over look having things to keep them busy in a grid down situation. I realize mere survival will keep them busy, but all work and no play... you know.
i have owned many different trucks, all of them with canopies. i recommend insulation or a headliner inside. if you shelter inside during cold weather, it doesnt take long for the condensation to start raining down on you.
Often better than a shovel in sand and snow (for you Canadians)... mount a long handle Garden Hoe on your vehicle. It's far faster to unstuck a vehicle. Also, mount light weight stuff like sleeping bags, bed rolls (or yoga mats), blankets, trash bags, etc to the underside of the roof of your shell there. And while you are adding all your gear, might as well also try and add some bulletproofing to keep you safer.
Without a doubt, add a full length handled pointed shovel and a sharp Pulaski, for digging, chopping, clearing, cacheing, and for burials. If you should have to dig in the Earth, you will wish that you had a big boy's shovel, instead of an abbreviation. Trust this old digger. Thanks for the video.
Really good idea, I just got into a vehicle accident and my SUV was totaled because of a person on their phone and missed a stop sign. How ever I was thinking already about upgrading to a truck. This stuff is such a great idea. Thanks!!!
Build a platform out of plywood that sits on top of the wheelwells, use a pair of 2x8" on their side as supports. Now your bed is up higher and you get more storage space underneath.
The head on that shovel should be rear-facing. If you get smashed from behind that thing could become a cab-piercing spear. Anyone in the back seat could be impaled.
If you want to go crazy you can look for the Jeep Wrangler JL chasetruck build on youtube. It is an extreme modification (wranhler turned into a bigger version of the gladiator) but the bed bins are accesible from the outside and that is like the best for easy and quick access tools on a truck. If not, you could get into the packout system from milwaukee and mout it on the tail gate.
In real SHTF, you will probably suffer from degraded physical condition, so anything that helps conserve energy would be helpful. This molle system, the BOR, a good knife, saw, stove, etc may be lifesavers.
Side Doors upon opening can hold small items. most used items on driver side and passenger side can have an extra Bob. Anything your imagination can come up with. Good Video.
I have my RamBox setup in the same fashion, but I dont have a shovel. I do have a get home bag, sleeping bag, small tent, an AR with extra mags, yank strap, and a lot of other stuff. My point is, the RamBox can fit a lot of stuff, to include ice and beer if you want. If you are in the market for a truck, the RamBox is a great system for preppers.
I made something like this for the trunk in my camry. I use the truck bed for hauling dirt, mulch and firewood so it wouldn't work there without being quickly removable
nice organiser, a velcroed vinil cover would help with the low profile( and i would flip the shovel) super concept, a gun rack on steroids . keep it up, 🔝
Can you direct me to a video of how to use the molle panel? For example, how to attach the quick fists? Are there other methods of fasening gear? What are they? Which ones are popular or good value? Do you need to modify your panel to use these mounting methods? How do the panels mount to the truck? Whats invoved with assembling the panels to your truck bed, etc? Cool show and tell of your gear!
My first thought was why not some V-shaped slots the shovel and similar items would slide down into with heavy bungee cords to hold things tight. If you want fast access, a single bungee may secure multiple items almost an "X" or webbing across several things that quickly releases several... Drawback is in turn resecuring before motoring. For security I use large Pelican cases secured with u-bolts, braided cable and locks. Items like shovels get bungee'd to the cases. Most truck caps are too vulnerable and/or overlooked to integrate with vehicle alarm.
The new add on at the back of your is great. Your vehicles are so big in America it is unbelievable. Nice knife btw :)

In Australia the best places for draw systems are ARB, TJM or 4wd supercenter. 👍
The head on that shovel should be rear-facing.
If you get smashed from behind that thing could become a cab-piercing spear.
Anyone in the back seat could be impaled.
Great material 👍
CP ... love that Silky saw. I'm adding it to my wish list. That thing is a beast.
congrats on 500k followers CP!!
Very cool idea.
If you want to go crazy you can look for the Jeep Wrangler JL chasetruck build on youtube. It is an extreme modification (wranhler turned into a bigger version of the gladiator) but the bed bins are accesible from the outside and that is like the best for easy and quick access tools on a truck.
If not, you could get into the packout system from milwaukee and mout it on the tail gate.
In real SHTF, you will probably suffer from degraded physical condition, so anything that helps conserve energy would be helpful. This molle system, the BOR, a good knife, saw, stove, etc may be lifesavers.
Really enjoy your channel, such important info
I have my first aid and fire extinguisher attached to tail gate… tail gate becomes a table and quickest access
Side Doors upon opening can hold small items. most used items on driver side and passenger side can have an extra Bob. Anything your imagination can come up with. Good Video.
I have my RamBox setup in the same fashion, but I dont have a shovel. I do have a get home bag, sleeping bag, small tent, an AR with extra mags, yank strap, and a lot of other stuff. My point is, the RamBox can fit a lot of stuff, to include ice and beer if you want. If you are in the market for a truck, the RamBox is a great system for preppers.
I made something like this for the trunk in my camry. I use the truck bed for hauling dirt, mulch and firewood so it wouldn't work there without being quickly removable
I like this video. Thank you!
Reminds me a the gear item box from resident evil the way he has it set up.
nice organiser, a velcroed vinil cover would help with the low profile( and i would flip the shovel) super concept, a gun rack on steroids . keep it up, 🔝
Can you direct me to a video of how to use the molle panel? For example, how to attach the quick fists? Are there other methods of fasening gear? What are they? Which ones are popular or good value? Do you need to modify your panel to use these mounting methods? How do the panels mount to the truck? Whats invoved with assembling the panels to your truck bed, etc? Cool show and tell of your gear!
My first thought was why not some V-shaped slots the shovel and similar items would slide down into with heavy bungee cords to hold things tight. If you want fast access, a single bungee may secure multiple items almost an "X" or webbing across several things that quickly releases several... Drawback is in turn resecuring before motoring. For security I use large Pelican cases secured with u-bolts, braided cable and locks. Items like shovels get bungee'd to the cases. Most truck caps are too vulnerable and/or overlooked to integrate with vehicle alarm.
All you need now is an air mattress.😁😁😁😁😁😁
