    Ski Bum Truck V2.0, F450 Rough Road RV

    Hi! Yeah we have a maxxfan that is over the cooking area. And yes, the screen on it does get nasty much faster than the one in the rear. This size is big, but it's manageable. The height is the biggest issue for me. I'm just under 8' wide and 26' OAL.

    Insurance for truck converted to RV

    Revising this..... Hagerty won't do rv. Period. Doesn't matter if it's a custom truck or not. Even if it's not registered as an rv. They won't touch it Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

    We were on a weekday, so it was empty but I would say probably no problem. School busses make it in and out. Apparently if you park in the other lot there is a power pole with hookups too! Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

    The best stuff! No damn leaky threads! I'm a general contractor, so I borrow from there, not so much the rv side of things. Pex rocks. Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

    Nope, we tow the boat occasionally. The previous owner dragged a 26-foot enclosed trailer around though. Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

    How about penetrating epoxy for the lower wood section? I put some EZ cool over my cab-box gasket, not sure it does a ton. I throw a moving blanket over the hole when we are stopped, kind of isolates the cab. I want to say I have seen an h shaped extrusion that will go over the ply and leave...

    I think I do well with deadlines..... My wife mentioned that the microwave would be a nice luxury to have. So Microwave it is. Inverter will run it, barely. Pulls ~85 amps, microwave makes odd noises, but it works! So I made a little shelf for it to sit on, drilled small recesses for the feet...

    Yeah that would have worked well, if I had not gotten a super deal on this radio... . The mic cable comes off the head, not the body like the Icom. I didn't want it flapping by the rear view all the time. Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

    Also got the Ham radio nearly installed. Just need to finish running power..... Picked up a cheap ft7900 For as big as the truck is, there is no where on the dash to put a damn remote face plate! I settled on this, its low, not going to be adjustable while driving, but should work ok. Also...

    Floors are cold, really cold. So before the last trip I bought some cheap carpet and cut it to fit the kitchen/eating area. Had to lift the fridge a bit to clear it. I spray glued foam floating floor backing to it so it doesn't scratch up the vinyl flooring. That way it can be popped out for...
