    16) Tailgate storage mod: I wanted to buy the Huracan tailgate storage mod solution but it was more money than I wanted to spend. Having more time than money, I made my own for like $30 with a piano hinge and some sheet metal I had lying around. I did splurge on some awesome lockable push-button...

    13) Insulated Curtains: I recovered some woven fabric from my cousin's house when he was replacing curtains. I bought some Temptrol fabric, which is basically a radiant heat insulator. I added a layer of blackout material for a combined triple layer curtain. I sewed them to leave a gap from the...

    Discount code for Inergy Flex portable power station - Vanlife, Off-grid, Overland etc

    Hey all, I figured the following was worth sharing. The folks at Inergy gave me a 10% discount code to share with people -- if anyone is considering an off-the-shelf battery system which can support solar and a bunch of other features, I recommend taking a look: Discount Link here -- or I...

    Hey @cruzinfj1 I got the Viewsonic M1+ on Amazon. I got the entry level 480P version cause I'm cheap. The quality is quite good, but I am a movie stickler and I have to admit that I sometimes wish I got the 1080P version or perhaps even a different model with 4k resolution. But again, it's still...

    Vanlife / Overlanding off-grid battery solution(s) with solar

    Personally, I'm a big fan of the Inergy Flex 1500 unit. I investigated the Delta Ecoflow, Bluetti, Jackery, and many others, and ultimately landed on the Inergy Flex. I did countless hours of research and built spreadsheets comparing all the specs (charging options and speeds per type, battery...

    Wow last update was 1.5 years ago! Time flies. We spent 9 months living quasi-nomad life in the Pacific Northwest, and I stopped posting when I got busy doing finishing touches on the truck before departure. We took her up to Canada, fun driving her onto ferries up there in Vancouver, visited...

    10) Fridge Slide: I initially had a vision for a fridge slide that would: 1) slide out, 2) be angled towards the driver's side to increase sleeping space, 3) tilt down, 4) lock in place but also unlock with just one hand, 5) have minimal footprint beyond the fridge itself, 6) and lift up above...

    @thatcabledude Thanks, that Exped MegaMat Duo pad looks like a good product. However, it won't really work for my application as I had to cut away the corner of my mattress foams to make room for my fridge slide. I'll post more on that project later. 9) Cupholders! As with all of you it was so...

    8) Drawers: using 1/2" plywood I made long 48" drawers, at the height of the wheel wells so about 8" tall. I like to engineer security into everything so added heavy duty locking latches. I shellacked all the surfaces of the drawers, and polyurethane on all the surfaces of the bed platform to...

    Added some quarter panels to complete the sleeping surface, and scored some free carpet from my cousin's house (this refrain will keep returning as my cousin is building a house and offloads used or extra material on me for free towards my build hah). I double layered the carpet for extra...

    @FMC80 Yeah got lucky there for sure. It's also my favorite iteration of the 80 interior personally, that fuzzy houndstooth pattern in brown which makes you feel like you're in grandpa's living room or something.

    Added aluminum rails on the right side drawer for a retractable table. Bought HDPE plastic strips instead of drawer slides and screwed these into the floor and under the drawers so they would slide against one another. In retrospect I partially regret not going with big industrial drawer...

    4) Bought a big cargo box for $320 on craigslist-- a Packasport made of fiberglass. 5) Got a free hammy-down awning from Mac Demarco through a mutual friend (famous musician these days). In general I'm trying to keep costs low and get creative as much as possible... ;) 6) Bed Platform...

    @FMC80 Thanks! We started easy at first to test out the waters. Trips along the California coast down to Big Sur and up to Mendocino. Here we were testing the experience of sleeping in the vehicle in a simple manner using inflatable camping pads between the wheel wells with all the rear seats...

    Nice to be here. Finally finding the time and the nerve to post my 80 build progress here. Bought my 1993 with 127,000 miles a bit over a year ago. Paid $11,500 which seemed like a lot then, but seems like more and more of a bargain as time goes on. Signed up for IH8MUD the same day I brought...
