After one full year living in our truck camper, we decided it was time for a review of the lifestyle! We used our most frequent asked questions as a script for this video, and hopefully it doesn’t seem too scripted because we wanted to cover everything! We cannot thank our viewers, subscribers, and patrons enough for supporting us on our journey and we hope this next year is even more adventuresome!
If you’re considering truck camper living and have any specific questions, feel free to ask in the comments and I’ll do my best to provide our insight!
Hope you have a LARGE day!

Lowes has better Wi-Fi than Walmart. Lowes Wi-Fi works from the parking lot. Walmart Wi-Fi only works inside the store.

I've lived OTR now for nineteen years and am currently living in an Artic Fox 811 with a built in generator, solar, DC to DC charge controller and a Dodge 4X4. Of all the rigs I've had over the years, this is the best and most versitile set up I've had. You guys are on the right track for mobil living or living on the move. Your small enough to get around and big enough to park for a while. It's nice to be able to take the camper off during a seasonal job and reload it and move on. I love this life style.

My wife and I have had a truck campers for about 12 yrs now, and as retirement has arrived are doing more extended trips. The game changer for us and off grid was a simple DC to DC charger. A few hundred dollars will keep you charging whenever the truck is running. I thought about adding solar panels, but with the DC charger there is no need in the type of travel we do. Combined with 200 Ah of Lithium batteries takes care of our power needs quite well. That would be the first upgrade I would recommend. You won't regret it. Happy travels....

Well done lots of good tips! I just bought a 08 Lance 825 and went west with the dog (Steve) from denver. No camper experience whatsover. It was rough at first but coming together after maaany youtube vids. This one is really good because we have a very similar setup. Finially got the torklift installed, almost setup with solar/batteries, and a ton of little upgrades. Not sure how people lived this life before amazon pickup. I 100% agree with sweating the parking at night situation! Currently roaming through Marin and Sonoma county 🙏

Good job! You two are personable, informative, and fun! My husband and I are sometimers in a 2018 Ford Transit van, with a Quigley 4x4 conversion, that we built out ourselves. We have all the things, composting toilet, solar, too. We are retired and usually take one long trip out west in the fall of every year and then we camp a lot locally, in the southeast, in the fall and winter. We did the northeast in the early summer of 2022. We love it! Truck campers seem to be taking over!:) Enjoy!!

We have traveled extensively (49 states and most of Canada) in our 2005 Lance 1010. I built a set of 3 doors for the overhead compartment with 3" vertical stiles at the ends and 2" between the doors. It is a real game changer for accessability plus a shelf across half of the former bed space. We run 300 watts solar into 2 100 watt LION batteries. Enough power to run the refrigerator on 12v daytime and a 1500 watt inverter to run small AC appliances. Check your power from the truck. Lance power systems are designed to input 40 amps from the vehicle. Most have a power separator so as to preserve the chassis battery when the engine is not running. The power cord needs to be wired with the 12 volt lead through a #8 or #10 wire direct from the truck battery (fused). There is a special recepticle for Lance campers which is designed to utilize the 40 amp power. This uses the truck alternator to charge while driving and if sitting in cloudy weather an hour or two of idling will bring the batteries back up. Easier than adding a second alternator just for the camper. Quite often even the dealers will not do this and wire to the 12v trailer feed which is usually only capable of providing 6 or 8 amps and not enough to support the needs of a camper. We considered switching to a "residential" style refrigerator which is only 12 volt input but then found out the door to the camper is not big enough to remove the old unit or bring in the new one. You might also find an additional storage space in the platform under the table. I removed the carpet and cut the plywood off 1 1/2 inches out from the table pedastal then attached a piano hinge and re-installed the carpet. Great little space for shoe storage. I also installed a temperature control in the shower plumbing which sets the hot water temperature to around 110 degrees. Saves a lot of fiddling trying to regulate and waste water when taking a Navy shower. Outside shower also conserves waste water space. Hope these experiences help. Enough for now, happy motoring and thanks for sharing your adventures.

Great video. Next month will be my first full year in my sunlite skyhawk pop up camper. Had some good times and some crappy times but it’s all part of the adventure. Coldest my Shepherd and I went through was -43 here in Maine. Definitely go with the alternator charging. I have 200ah of lithium self heating batteries and when the truck is running it charges at 30amps. Haven’t added any solar yet but it’s a dual Input controller so I just need to wire in a panel. Also recently added a 2000 watt inverter to run an air fryer. Definitely an upgrade from only having the stovetop to cook on

I outfitted our 865 with a 150ah lifepo4 battery, replaced the original battery with another 100ah lifepo4 battery (make sure the camper's charger can handle lithium), 200 watts of solar on the roof and 3x100 watt portable panels, a 2000 watt inverter, a renogy 20a DC to DC charger and carried a Champion dual fuel inverter generator. I stored most of it in two storage containers straddling a center mounted porch on the rear. When we boondocked, I plugged the camper into the inverter like shore power. This recharged the main battery and powered the 120ac plugs (our camper had a microwave). We used the portable panels when parked in the shade or wanted extra charging power. We could place them out in the sunshine. Also, they are more efficient because they can be aimed towards the sun. The generator was used on rainy days when the batteries got too low. We chose a dual fuel for more flexibility. On the dc to dc charger, be careful not to over heat the alternator (it needs air flow to stay cool). Even though our camper had two propane tanks, I could have carried a spare in one of the rear containers. In regards to extending the small black and gray tanks, I used a maserator pump to fill dedicated 5 gallon jerry cans (again stored in the rear containers). It simulates the European style of handling waste. I hope this gives you some ideas and hope it all works out. GOOD LUCK!

It's vastly cheaper than paying rent. With my solar setup, I rarely need the generator and I avoid RV parks like the plague. I stick to the western US as it's too crowded back east and there aren't enough dispersed / free areas to camp.

Chest freezers work good, I fill the bottom with a case of bottled water keeps it cold on cloudy days. It's a small freezer.

this is the first video i’ve seen from this channel - nicely done. if you don’t have an instant pot, you should get the mini duo. if you’re okay running the blow dryer, you should be okay running the IP :-).

What do you do with all your stuff? Things you want to keep from family that you've inherited, tools, just things you don't want to get rid of.

I hear you I'm living in my truck camper too I'm out in Colorado was my first winner staying around Grand Junction High Desert area where they don't get much snow so far it's been a piece of cake there's not really anything to it fat having a truck camper you got a tear down if you want to go to town not supposed to leave your camper set out on the jack stands cuz it's hard on the frame so it kind of leaves you stranded unless you have another vehicle

Really enjoying y'alls videos and thanks for the info and insight! Have y'all already made a video discussing truck requirements for hosting a truck camper? My wife and I are heavily considering trading our cars for a truck but want to make sure we've checked off as many requirements as possible in the process. Thanks again!

We’ve touched on it briefly but not in detail. If you’re new in the market for both, I’d advise to go with the largest truck you’re comfortable with. For us, that was a one ton single rear wheel since we didn’t want the added width of a dually. But, we also knew we wanted a smaller truck camper and that it would be on the lighter end. As far as gas vs diesel, we have no regrets going with the hemi engine! Plenty of power and we get 10-11mpg consistently

FUN video, you appeared more natural more relaxed NOT scripted, keep up the good work. As an electrical engineer and long time dry camper I can advise you YES get a DC to DC Charger maybe 40 to 60 Amp that can be set for Wet Flooded, AGM or LiFePo4 batteries, I chose Renogy. If not already done, install a house/coach LiFePo4 at least 100 Amp Hours or 200 if you can find the space. I chose SOK, they make a single unit 206 Amp Hour. Next a 2000 Watt PSW Inverter will power your AC devices, I chose a Renogy. Of course when plugged to shore power a Charger suitable for your chosen battery chemistry or a combination Inverter/Charger does BOTH the two above, it's easier to wire and requires less space. An Oxygenics shower head can save water. Finally to extend dry camp time you need more fresh water, consider maybe a 20 to 30 gallon extra tank with a 12 VDC pump somewhere in the rear of the truck cab ???? FWIW I enjoy some video of the road while driving, parks, scenery, hikes, destinations, dry camping, all while delivering descriptive narrative. John T Electrical Engineer and 50 year RV owner

Glad you enjoyed this style of video! We’ll likely install the alternator charger in the coming months and it should solve our power issues!
