Fantastic help! You really have a supportive community and I believe it's because you are so kind. Showing each step is cool because a lot of watchers seem to be building out their own so can learn from you and your expert friends. I think that's yet another way of paying it forward. It's also super cool of you to take the insurance money to HOWA when it finally wanders in. I know they will be thrilled to get it whether it's July or september. Folks are always in need, as you learned the hard way. Just think, when you lay your head on the pillow in your completed trailer, of all the steps you've taken to get there. It won't take as long as the step van, I'm sure but all you've learned will be part of the completed project. I hope you find a reliable truck that makes you feel safe, confident and happy. Every time you put the key into the ignition, you will remember all the amazing folks who donated, suggested, helped and cared about this awful situation. Best wishes.
"...we won't talk about how out-of-square the trailer is." gaps in the floor, gaps in side-panels. Thanks for showing us how bad they made your custom cargo trailer.
I was hoping to get alternative ideas for floor insulation here. Having 2 subfloors increases the weight too much for our build. We aim to reduce weight for better gas mileage (with the price of gas!), and also distribute the weight evenly in our build. That means batteries on one side, water tank on the other, kitchen split into a galley so weight on both sides, etc. I read about a van build that had all the weight of their floor plan on one side and it was worrisome to drive around corners! So much to consider.
Awesome as always Seven thank you although the knowledge I may never use it is still so entertaining. Thank you for keeping me entertained and I always wish you the best bless you again and again.
for the DC to DC converter - sounds like you need a 24V to 13.8V DC converter. Most auto alternators put out 14.4V or a little more for nominal 12V auto electronics.
Hello and thanks for the interesting info! You had a video on a truck with active air insulation via *'holes in 2x4 walls' via a fan on top and holes in the back'.* Anyone recall the title of that video? *THX!*
Sev, you are a rich man to have friends that are willing to help in a crisis. Not many people are able to say this.Build is coming along just fine. Have you though about a gas engine truck? Diesels will me mega expensive to work on and repair,,,
I can’t agree with your endorsement of how well built your trailer is. In your last video you showed the gaps along the bottom where the walls joined the floor. You said that the trailer was originally built as a cargo trailer and you seemed to think that made the gaps acceptable. I disagree. Regardless of what use the trailer is being built for, gaps are not acceptable and certainly aren’t a sign of quality craftsmanship. I doubt that anyone using that brand of trailer to haul cargo would like water and other containment’s getting into the trailer and damaging their cargo plus causing corrosion. After seeing this video and the extra work you have to do to fill in the gaps with caulk I would never buy that brand of trailer. Also I doubt that applying caulk in the gaps will be a permanent fix. Caulk will not replace missing metal.
Funny how many people are jumping over the build quality of this cargo trailer. My friend has had bumper pull, 5th wheel and motor coaches his whole life and you'd be amazed how piss poor they are built. I've helped him on and off repair his campers and NOTHING is square or plumb and depending on who is working wires are ran in any direction and these campers cost $50,000-$275,000. The latest is a motor coach that costs more than my house and it's built so poorly I can't imagine owning it. The gaps and you see on the metal skin will continue to grow and shrink with the heat and cold weather. If you look down the side of a cargo trailer in the early morning it will look totally different if you do the same at 2 in the afternoon in full sun. The simple fact is this is a utility cargo trailer and if you are expecting an engineering wonder than you will be disappointed, but with that said imagine your disappointment if you spent $250,000 on a motor coach to find the same thing.
Mmm, the cynical in me says it’s an insurance write off, ending up at a local breakers where the perps will buy it, replace missing parts and it’s all legal..
Strange channel, one video guy is in tears needing financial help and now he is a Forman on a job site. I'm so confused about this guy. No credibility. Straight up hustler
You might try getting to know someone before passing a sweeping judgement based upon seeing maybe 20 minutes of their life. Imagine if we all judged you based upon this one comment?
Thank for showing us the bad quality work Renown did on the trailer, regarding you're using it for. For sure I'm not ordering my trailer with them. Thank you.

It's good to have good friends.
I GOT A FEELING SEVEN HAS HANDLED BIG CAULK BEFORE...
looking good. Nice flooring and hope the wall insulation went up today!

Nice to have friends 👍
And a Go Fund Me Account also.

Nice shirt Ron!
Seven, what about the VAPOUR BARRIER? Without it, condensation will build up between the walls causing all sorts of undesirable issues.
Good start and good friends.
Simple stuff from a simple guy!-!

What's the status of the stolen truck?
I guess you have money now
Is that foam board better than spray foam insulation

I will never buy that brand now that I seen the lack of quality. I am in the process of buying a few cargo trailers.
@@KikaWaiAlae interesting that Seven never has mentioned or replied to that issue.
@@anthonypirrello2473 he’s being sponsored by them that’s prolly why…

Blindviews is clowning you.
Hey Seven, I am in denver, if you need some man power for help let me know, be glad to give you some time.

Way too many ads. You’re going to lose views.
He does not control all the ads RUclips can ad them at will. so he might add one or 2 but RUclips will add on top of it.
Ok it was just annoying but that’s life I guess.
Get yourself knee pads, you’ll thank me later 🙂
