Yeah, that’s some smart planning. Nice rig! The drone in my rig drives me nuts sometimes. 3” exhaust, and the exhaust manifold was ported/polished… too loud! 😂

Slick rig! 9:06 regarding the Buddy Heater. I’ve got one and have used it sparingly inside the Blazers (‘88 K5 & ‘85 M1009) and in our camper at deer camp. Maybe in the blind too. 😂 Getting to be a puss the older I get and hard to keep myself warm after I dropped a hundred lbs. Being cold can put a big dent in a trip. Have you messed with any of the diesel heaters? Lot of people call the “chinese diesel heaters.” Man I got one and I dig it. Able to run it outside and just pipe the blower hose into the cabin. Some folks will do a tire-step and put the heater unit on it but you’d have to build a custom one with them big ass meats. I’ve seen people put the whole unit inside and just run a hole to route the exhaust pipe out. Worth a try…and they put out some big heat just sipping diesel. I want to eventually tie into my M1009’s diesel fuel tank and run the exhaust out. The one I have doesn’t take up much and gets real hot. Only no louder than my Big Buddy Heater and just a clicking Sound. What part of CA are you in? I’m in Eastern Oklahoma and we get that damn 110+° heat and -20° cold at times but nowhere near the snowfall I saw in some of your videos. Worst part is we usually get a layer of ice before snow around here My uncle grew up in Marysville before moving here and would tell me stories of some of the Northern CA snow wheeling his ‘71. And adventures working as forest fire fighter. Subscribed and gonna check out more of your videos. I may have to pick your brain some on the 6.2 and the turbo route. Mine has blown head gasket (at most hopefully). It’s the military J-code 6.2 and it seems to have a little more pep than the ones I’ve ridden in before. One day I’d love to Cummins swap it but that’s a project that’s gonna have to wait on funding. My neighbor parts out Cummins rigs so should be able to find. Funny 😄 happened to catch this video because I carry everything in those 27 gal totes. Mostly yellow lids and some red. Been thinking about spraying the lids black to not catch the eyes of a passing crackhead as easily. You’ll love that manual rear winder. Thought I’d hate it but it’s far superior over the electric. My rebuild on my Silverado packaged K5 will be milder so I plan to tear the gate apart and replace the components. I do miss getting to roll it down going down the highway in the manual rig but it’s not a bad trade off for reliability. Shit sorry I didn’t realize I wrote a novel. If you’re here on Chapter 21 now then my hat is off to ya. I’ll let you get back to doing livin’! Have fun and be well, man 👊🏼
