DIY Mini Truck Camper | Road Trip up the California Coast

Thanks for watching, luv u :)
S/o to Allen for tagging along, Go follow @oyedood on instagram!!!!!

[@ThalassTKynn]

I bet those McLaren drivers are checking out your kei truck, though.

[@blandbull]

was thinking the same thing!

[@dontthroworanges]

If you haven't found out already, the reason you don't have a working radio is that Japan uses different frequencies for terrestrial radio. Best to just replace the stereo.

[@Jared_7071]

ryan if you ever go to sell that thing you better announce it on your youtube first so we can have a chance to buy it XD

[@lexingtonsodyssey]

Forreal i thought the same thing when that dude asked him if it was for sale haha

[@lildoughboy2085]

Legit

[@CuzmicTarot]

Okay!! ❤❤😂🎉

[@Cabin365]

Do a raffle for it -- $10 buy in, multiple entries allowed. My friend does this for old school cars and they make 3x what the vehicles worth (minimum).

[@nursealexkim]

im buying it

[@mikeminard4115]

I love Alan's dog. Glad you also figured out the most effective way to use your camping stove. Another awesome video - what a view over Malibu!!! Thanks, Ryan.

[@thetravellingpicker5096]

Looks like San Clemente-Malibu region. I spent a summer in my 69 ford van down by the beach back in '81. Was a magical summer. Beach showers. a part time job in a local burger stand. Thanks for taking me back Ryan, with your simple style of living. Peace.

[@user-oh9tv8ul4c]

At 11:21 is exactly why people love these things. Although they seem small and the engines aren't that big, they continue to exceed expectations and they're just so full of charm and character. If i still lived in the states I'd be interested in getting one!

[@maineman337]

Ryan you should make a 1 hr video once a month and the regular ones you already make for the rest of the month. I’m speaking for all of us, literally all of us 😊😊😊

[@Huevos_Rancheros]

Agreed. Please and thank you sir

[@ryanbrown5214]

I was thinking the same thing. I really get bummed out when the videos are over. I just love watching his stuff.

[@LondonHasFallin]

Hold up! That doesn't sound like a good idea... 🤔 I think 30 minutes 2x a week is great.

[@LondonHasFallin]

If he only posted once a month, his channel's foot traffic would drop significantly.

[@KarinK-wt7mh]

Yes, ageee, 3 weekly and 1 hour long each month😂

[@lasvegasoutlaw13]

Alan seems super humble. Cool dude to have on your video 👌🏽

[@angiebfromthed7325]

You seem so down to earth. So chill and easy to talk to❤

[@jmac217x]

Glad to see the stove working out today! As often as you cook that's a must! Probably turned out nice to have a carryout pizza for a change in any case. I love to see the build working out so well with only minor adjustments!

[@jameslewis2635]

It looks like an electric pump for the sink would probably be a great upgrade for that little camper. With the power bank there and the tight space, it might be an idea to get an induction hob so you don't end up smoking yourself (and everything else) out when you cook. As far as personal hygiene goes, it is pretty easy to have a sink wash with just a wash cloth, some shampoo and a bit of hot water. I would suggest buying an electric kettle for the latter part as it doesn't take up much more space than a jug and as such can be tidied away easily enough after use. It would also allow you to make tea, coffee or even instant soups/ramen on the go.

[@EzaneeGires]

Great and practical suggestions

[@annchargualaf4990]

Hello Ryan your RV is beautiful I started watching you since last year but. am so weak and sick going through chemo just almost kill me thank you for sharing your journey safe tràvels can't wait for the next video take care love that pacific coast highway we always go the scenic route am a 62yrs old women and I love to travel I've seen so many places just watching your video my favorite one is when you went to alaska and the artic I watched that video twice take care Ryan and be safe see you on the next video n☮️☮️

[@DenaInWyo]

They make USB rechargeable ones even, bet he could modify something to put that in.

[@tinachana132]

Love watching your channel Ryan.Keep them coming. Be safe.

[@thomasroy1032]

my day just got 100% better now that ryan posted

[@stacies5605]

I love your vids! Nice to see a pupper in your vid, looking to follow your friend and his adventures too. Thanks for a fun vid! Safe travels!

[@peytongallaway2568]

so glad your mini truck has worked better than anticipated! good thing you kept working on it despite the negative comments. it’s adorable!! looks like a little toy car lol

[@theathjr]

Ryan the Dad in me is yelling at you through my phone to move that fake plastic plant away from your stove area !!! 😳

[@emptywig]

"Comfortability?" Dude, you're killing me. Can't wait for the next episode. Safe journeys!

[@kfeldinAZ]

California looks just beautiful! I’m absolutely loving your mini truck adventure!

[@desertoasis2024]

It's nice seeing you making new friends. Your minivan is awesome, btw.

[@tamcrafts1]

Ok. More details about Alan’s favorite snack, please? What kind of cheese and jam?

[@carolynbiggianibieber1453]

Ryan- those clouds are The Marine Layer. Early mornings & early evenings it rolls in. Can’t believe you made it up the canyon roads of Malibu 😮

[@reallove5349]

These trips look so fun I really do feel as though it is important to be able to see the world or just travel as much as possible

[@MericanAdventures]

Hey Ryan, there's a guy in Arizona (Larry "Workless Enjoy Life More" youtube channel) who built a truck camper for his Geo Tracker, you guys should try and do a mini truck camp video. His video of it should be up tomorrow, it would be seriously funny seeing you guys rolling around with ya's small campers.

[@Stang-qb8vf]

Yo Ryan, you're probably going to pass through my hometown, Oxnard, CA. I moved to San Diego, CA nine years ago. I love your videos and the mini truck!

[@johncaballeros]

805!!

[@sherryreinhardt3845]

You're a very intelligent man, I knew you could figure it out. I love your little camper!

[@bickbick_]

you are a monster for putting ketchup on that sammy

[@lucyj7688]

Thanks for your latest update. I'm glad you got your gas stove working. That dinner looked yummy. That golden retriever was gorgeous. The views of the beach are amazing. Well done Ryan.❤❤❤😁🇦🇺

[@etrimbleable]

Ryan, you are a master at making the most routine activity interesting. Looking forward to your next video.

[@Martin42944]

FYI, you can get 1# propane to iso-butane adapters. Doesn’t work as well, but really nice if you’re in an area where it’s easier to buy propane vs isobutane.

[@Thisisuzfam]

Dude… you will never forget them low clouds … what an amazing time to be alive 😮😮 never regret what your doing as a creator! Great job!

[@maineapple52]

I love this camper. You did an awesome job with it. For the bed, I would of cut a sheet of plywood in half lengthwise and put them together with a piano hinge. Other than that, I think it's great. Nice job!

[@pamartin]

It's a shame your friends dog is so shy😂😅 Keep on!

[@KMandreit95]

How weird, was at work here in the UK earlier today and thought when is Ryan gunna upload a new KZbin video, get home from work and load up KZbin and here I am, what a treat. If you see this comment Ryan please know you are genuinely the best content creator on this platform. Keep crushing it mate. 😎✌️

[@johncaballeros]

The dog unleashed next to that busy highway stressed me out so much!!!

[@enjoylife7030]

In your next update let us know how the mini-truck is doing on fuel? Love the trip up the coast and seeing the MD license plate on that awesome little camper on the opposite side of the country! Makes me wonder what a similar build would be like on a simple half ton extended cab truck chasis.

[@NavyOmen77]

7:23 - dunno why, but that knife making van gave me serious GTA V gun van shop vibes. pretty cool.

[@TooLazyToFail]

That cave was cool, and it's great to experience it with a new friend!

[@undraxis]

i find it amazing in any video...a dog can steal the show in an instant. Sorry to say i almost forgot this was a camping video for a sec >.

[@rrosario4657]

If no one said it yet you should put your KZbin QR code bar on the corners of the camper. 😁😎

[@sergiovega8664]

Making your bourbon chicken for dinner tomorrow night. Looks awesome.

[@shottingham]

Just to note; the cooker knob spark needs to be held continually to make it catch, and butter has the lowest smoke point, which is bad for high temps. Try using something (cheap) like vegetable oil. Nice build, man. Enjoying this series.

[@cabeirwin1565]

Good life lesson, people’s doubts should never effect your life choices. The rig fully performed and then some! Love these videos brotha, keep it!.

[@Tzippi]

Yay! I’m so happy for you, Ryan! The little truck is strong and mighty! I’m going to be in SoCal in a month and I can’t wait for the views. I have not been back in 50 years. ❤

[@shannonking2126]

Great job! Am so enjoying sharing this drive up the coast with you. Also started following Alan.

[@TheCanineHomestead]

Smoke means your cooking surface is to hot, that is the fat reaching the smoke point. Love the vids!

[@FabienBoulay]

I was browsing amazon and found those folding tablets for RV'S that looks like a storage door latch, but when you open them it actually is a tablet that can hold up to 50 pounds, pretty cool. I feel like this would be perfect size as well for your cooking top. cooking outside and not having cooked food smells in your living space all the time. Also a small deployable awening feel s like would be a super cool upgrade!

[@dianegomez5845]

What an awesome day! Smiling the whole vid, The Kei is epic and love to see you guys having a good time! Thank you as always for making our day better😊

[@JubileeValence]

Ryan! 2' step ladder will be your best friend lol!? (for back door...) Cheers!

[@boyerfitness]

Hey Ryan, I don’t know if others mind it but I know my girlfriend cannot stand when people clank a metal fork on their teeth when they eat.. she says it’s a bit like nails on a chalk board. I wouldn’t ever ask you to change your videos in any way but just thought I would let you know in case that bothers other viewers. As always thank you for the great content & documenting your travels so well!

[@philip8232]

I watched your truck from Allenn's perspective on his instagram and on the street it looks like it's a running portable toilet haha but I like it

[@cameljockey2586]

yo what up ryan! js wondering abt the update for the breakfast seasoning mix... i think we all sorta forgot abt it 😅

[@EddieArafa]

your friend Alan seems like a very chill dude, I like him, please make more videos with him! All the best to both of you, stay safe!

[@itsmiafrench]

It is always a good day when Ryan uploads. Fact.

[@user-mr1yl6xj7o]

Ryan have you tried flipping the pot rack? upside down over the flame on your camp stove? Ours has ridges to hold in place different size pots or pans. I’m sure you have but, like you said, the pan was sketchy sliding around till you switched to the griddle to place your skillet.

[@calfolk7381]

I’m keeping my eyes peeled as I live in the next beach town north. btw those low clouds over the ocean is the “marine layer” 🤙🏼

[@jonthorpe2824]

Been beautiful in Ventura yesterday and today if you passed thru. Safe travels.

[@Defianthuman]

If you light the stove and then cover it there is no way for the flame to blow out. Also, I know you didn't ask but the reason the turn signals flash so fast is because of the led lights in the rear, the flasher(hardware) is designed for halogen and incandescent filaments. The reduced resistance cause a faster flow of electricity and build up of heat.

[@lukeschmidt]

Awesome video, love the van! That knife is a nakiri, love them.

[@lyndontim]

A Ryan x KITH crossover was not something I had on my Bingo card

[@tphotographix]

DUDE - love the new build!!!!!!!! - super cozy!!!!

[@thescouch]

Ryan, your videos are absolutely awesome! The new van is incredibly cool, and I'm loving this content. Please keep up the great work!

[@ohhidave]

another great video ryan. did I miss alan's socials somewhere? i want to check his photography out!

[@user-xn3ks1tl1f]

Ryan I loved your video. Loved your unusual van too, a simple but workable set up; I’d love one like that. I have subscribed to your channel which was delightful to watch, and so un-fussy. Only thing I’d change is …. go easy on the garlic !

[@B-ce3hx]

If there’s a big gust of wind it looks like the little truck is going to go for a flight. I would be so scared 😂

[@stephendelacruzone]

That's the life! 😌 Central Coast California... 💎✨👌

[@Callsign_Ronin]

Back at it!!!! Loving this series!

[@nathocky]

Make "look at that" Ryan Twomey stickers!!

[@rangovanlife]

It is always nice to watch, simple, genuine but still with diversity 😊

[@kaylagassaway9953]

I think your next build should be a small bus

[@theathjr]

Ok Ryan I am really starting to love this Tramper ! (Truck Camper) haha. I call it that now.

[@oyedood]

Let’s gooo! Such good times man, gotta send it on another adventure soon 🤙🏼

[@daschawk]

I was thinking for the fold out shelf, what if you turned the entire surface (or replaced it, maybe?) with cutting board! Save ya some room, and stuff wouldn't be sliding around everywhere when you're cutting! Love watching the journey, man!

[@declandouglas9602]

These vids are so genuine and wholesome I love it

[@baconberries8097]

I've been seriously considering doing this whole van life thing full time. Idk how tall you are, but being able to stand up straight in a vehicle with that small of a footprint actually seems super appealing to me, as a guy who's not very tall (5' 7") and self conscious about driving big vehicles on the road lol

[@carolynbiggianibieber1453]

RYAN!! 😮 I can’t take it! I can’t believe you were right here in Malibu. I’m right around the corner and love driving the PCH in the am! I would have passed out if I saw your rig!

[@user-db4yp6uz4c]

Great video. Great mini van, the perfect short trip camper. Be safe👍

[@tortyvitai]

You should get a QR code sticker and put it on the van that way people can scan it when intrigued and it takes them to your page🥰

[@Chriss-gq4ke]

U , Mav and out door boys would be such a sick collab !

[@StunnafulPhotography]

Going to try your chicken dinner tonight bro. Just bought all the ingredients, and I'mma add a few extra items to it cuz I'm bougie. 🤣 Also, after a few months watching your vids.......subscribed! 👍🏽

[@JesseHdez]

the vibes were great in this video, ima go ahead and hit that subscribe button and lurk👀 around the channel a bit

[@MrDoinemdirty]

Solid pick-ups from KITH bro!

[@motothelissa]

I was def the awkward girl that waved to you at a stoplight today! Fun to catch a glimpse of the truck in real life! Looks good!

[@jtaggs100]

Should definitley get a good carwash after parking up on those beaches. Great vid!

[@bgsumo40]

[@crudiddyhmb]

ZYN sponsorship is needed dude 😂

[@user-rh7xe6pz1l]

Thanks for taking us along😊

[@davidfritsch6211]

Can’t believe I missed you in Malibu! Love the videos, keep it up!

[@pantallicaaa]

9:29-9:59 gta 5 got this spot on point. Jus a bit bigger in game than real life apparently 😂

[@Suzl4]

You did your dishes!! 😂😂😂😂

[@chrischau8403]

Love the view. Nice video!! I would prefer the camper van much more lol😂. Essentially you do half the thing using three time the effort

[@trevorlane]

This is pretty close to my in-laws. The canyon roads (like Kanan) are a handful to drive on. Feels crazy to see this from your POV.

[@kingalmighty3847]

You’re living the dream Ryan

[@DenaInWyo]

I love so many of the Kinder's seasonings. I've got a cupboard full. Also the cherry chipotle wing sauce. I love cheese and jam...but tapenade with it? I guess I won't knock it till I try it!

[@crazycurtis28]

You need to get some ear plugs to help sleep at night. I have a pot of them in my camper. Perfect for blocking or drastically reducing noise. Takes a while to get used to them though

[@yosino4760]

Hello Ryan I've been watching for about a year and half now and I love your videos man I am 17 right now but when I get a lil older I'll try to get my self a camper van and start making video I just want to say u inspired me to wanna make vanlife videos

[@markwilkins9048]

Give you credit bro,,,cooking on that tiny grill in that tiny space. Good on you

[@MattSkiDooFord]

Got the Tony Soprano Summer shirt!

[@ChristoBenong]

Are those rice? As an Asian, Please was the grains and dont wait for the water to boil before you put the rice grains 🥲

[@TSLAaddict]

Ryan, use bar soap (Ivory) on your wood for sliding your bed in and out. It’s like using grease.

[@erick1261]

This dude just runs into his homies everywhere.
