  • In this episode I begin the interior construction on what will become my living quarters and the garage space. I install insulation in the rear section of the habitat that we fabricated to match the insulation properties of the forward military section. Plywood walls go up to divide the garage from my home and provide a solid wall to mount all of the electronic components that will power the rig.
    I also christen the truck with a new logo that proudly displays her name- Baobab, and add more Drive The Globe logos to the exterior.
    Follow along as I completely outfit and custom fabricate my home on wheels. In this video series I will detail all of the components and build steps that go into completing the ultimate overland expedition vehicle build.

      It would be cool if you share the weight at some point to have a better idea! In Costa Rica they will let you drive with 12T.

    Wont all that alloy create thermal bridging?

      @drivetheglobe  5 месяцев назад +3

      In theory there certainly could be some. However, after traveling in a similar set up full time now for almost 4 years I think it is a topic that is highly discussed but in practice is an insignificant issue. Admittedly I tend to travel in scenarios that this is less prevalent IE; I hate the cold. In reality, with great insulation and a cracked window for ventilation hasn't been a problem down to say low 20s F.

      @Ear,
      2003, for our ExpeditionVehicle, we insulated with:
      * adhesive-back acoustic against the inside of the wall and ceiling, a gap, then
      * one-inch pink-board, another air-gap, then
      * two-inch foil-side poly.
      .
      Our heater is a Wave 3 catalytic heater.
      With our obsessively excessive insulation, we rarely use it above 40°f/5°c... and always on 'LOW'.
      .
      Our windows are 3010 (three feet wide by a foot tall) dual-pane sliders designed for a stand-still house.
      We mounted these at our eye-level standing inside, about eight feet above pavement.
      Small targets for branches and jealous by-standers.
      .
      Over two decades full-time live-aboard.
      Twenty-four months twenty-four thousand miles around South America.
      Alaska, Panama, all over North and Central America.
      Summers up rough logger tracks to remote mountain lakes.
      Winters on isolated Baja beaches.
      And none of our caravan chums have factory RecreateVehicles.

    Hey Michael, as someone that's newer to your channel and to the concept of building a tiny home on a rig like this, are you able to point me to any resources that are good for researching what it costs and what it takes to do something like this? I am genuinely interested in this type of thing. Thanks in advance.

    • @drivetheglobe
      @drivetheglobe  5 месяцев назад +1

      Thank you for the support, very much appreciated. Honestly there are a lot of sources, including a number of youtube channels, facebook groups and discussions like on Expedition Portal or Overland Bound. Attending Overland Expos is also a great resource. I have been working with a number of folks on my Patreon Account as well.

      One side effect of these windows is they can and do scratch- especially if you really use the truck like I do.
