Trudy the Troopy (2 Viewers)

About to pick up my first troopy out in California next week. I have now plowed through every digital troopy build out there and I think I might be the first person come up with a different way. I also might be a dumbass. I want to do a bam bed style platform on top of jump seat verticals at rear window height. Three boards that sit on top with a return piece underneath so they don’t slide side to side. For reference I’m not living out of this troopy full time. A week tops on bird hunting and fishing trips. Trying to keep it as stock as possible. But minimalist functional. Photos of the troopy because I’m in love. And a photo of a bam bed for reference.

I don't know what all that is, but you're gonna have the headroom of a coffin if you take the platform up to the window bottom. My interior has a pretty standard layout with central aisle, and the bench seat on the left side is well below the window bottom, and I still can't sit on it and raise my head up. The original bench seats are very low, that picture may give you the wrong idea about interior space. But as long as you know that there's no reason this couldn't make a useful and versatile interior. Troopys are, or should be, super modular.

Welcome to the madness. That looks like a very nice, clean truck. Love the color. What year/engine is it? You driving it back to Asheville?
