Episode 129: Our Hiker Trailer Mid-Range XL 5x10 Interior Tour!

[@TakeAHikeToday]

Nice walk around as I begin the building process with Hiker. Love the build and almost exactly the way I would configure with one addition of the A/C unit as I live in the Southeast!

[@PinayAndtheWhiteGuy]

We had thunderstorms later in our trip, the Hiker handled it perfectly. We're in Arizona but we usually do our camping in northern AZ during the summers, which is usually cool enough for us. Keeping fingers crossed. The building process is the best part, Hiker and Danielle were awesome with us. If you have any questions, drop us a message and we can try and show you on our trailer Thanks for the comment!

@@PinayAndtheWhiteGuy That's the beauty of camping in AZ. You can camp year around you just have to look and see where it's cool

[@PinayAndtheWhiteGuy]

We are blessed with a lot of camping areas here, we're trying to visit as many as we can to find new favourites. Thanks for watching!

Look into Plasti-dip for spraying your clear elbows black

[@PinayAndtheWhiteGuy]

That's a great idea, thank you!

@@PinayAndtheWhiteGuy your welcome. Love all the hikers vids. Everyone who owns one has some great mods. Making plans to get my own

[@PinayAndtheWhiteGuy]

@chipdr911 Thank you. We got our trailer last year during their end of the year sale. Think it was $500 off at the time. They have a couple of new models out now too

Ha ha ha, it is a good one! Thanks for the comment, have a great day!

Nice video/set up. I want one of these, the other day I went on their website and configured the one I want. The wife wants a pop-up trailer. I refuse to get a $10k tent.

[@PinayAndtheWhiteGuy]

We love our Hiker, the nice thing is if she hesitant about spending a lot; you buy a budget friendly Hiker and mod as you go. Thanks for watching and stopping by for a comment!

[@kcon084]

Where did you get your baskets for the front overhead cubbies? Also the hanging pocket organizer beside the door? Love it! Thanks for an awesome video!

[@PinayAndtheWhiteGuy]

Hello, sorry for the late reply; we were out camping and didn't have cell service! If you're asking about the grey boxes we have in our cubbies, they came from Home Goods and they come in a pack of 6. The hanging pocket organizer we bought on Amazon, we are using two different sizes. www.amazon.com/dp/B0BMTJT21P?ref=cm_sw_r_cso_sms_apin_dp_ET1XKGMC28B67S0J90BA&ref_=cm_sw_r_cso_sms_apin_dp_ET1XKGMC28B67S0J90BA&social_share=cm_sw_r_cso_sms_apin_dp_ET1XKGMC28B67S0J90BA&starsLeft=1&skipTwisterOG=1 www.amazon.com/dp/B0BVYV1XVF?ref=cm_sw_r_cso_sms_apin_dp_BP6KQTDSZX3EWRTN9K6J&ref_=cm_sw_r_cso_sms_apin_dp_BP6KQTDSZX3EWRTN9K6J&social_share=cm_sw_r_cso_sms_apin_dp_BP6KQTDSZX3EWRTN9K6J&starsLeft=1&skipTwisterOG=1 Hope that helps!

@@PinayAndtheWhiteGuy welcome, my hiker is being built, so love watching what works for people and doesn’t work. Great suggestion on the RV cap screens & also how you heated them up to work! Thanks for dropping a link…

[@PinayAndtheWhiteGuy]

@Spyderzax1 It's an exciting time waiting for your build, this was our first trip in ours. I'm still putting together our camping video. If there was anything else you were curious about on the Hiker that we missed, we'd be glad to show or answer anything for you

[@doughalldorson8663]

New subscriber ,great video we are between a teardrop and one like yours ? Any thoughts ? Oh and I love the Sasquatch decor 😀🦧

[@PinayAndtheWhiteGuy]

Ha ha ha a fellow "Squatcher"! When we started looking we were between the Hiker and Bean trailers. We settled on the Hiker because it seemed to fit a lot more of what we were looking for. If you're still in the research phase, we suggest watching Where's Wiseman (they have a tear drop). Matt Dewitt, if you search Hiker they will be most likely the first videos you see. Playingwithsticks camped with a bunch of different style trailers. If there's a question you have on our Hiker, please ask and we will do our best to answer that for you. Thanks for subscribing!

@doughalldorson8663 Congrats on your Hiker! We were counting the days down until we got ours. We have a couple of Sasquatch flags, we got them from Amazon. The sticker on the door, came in a set of them, like 6 or 8 I think. They have Hiker meet ups, would be fun to meet you there someday!

[@NeilDorf]

Is that the 17" galley, or 24"?

[@PinayAndtheWhiteGuy]

Hi Neil, we have the 17" galley

[@NeilDorf]

@@PinayAndtheWhiteGuy Thanks couldn't tell for sure; was trying to judge how much max floor space there would be at the foot of the mattress for a small soft dog crate. The notion crossed my mind about completely deleting the rear galley to maximize interior space, since we have all the space in the bed of our truck.

[@PinayAndtheWhiteGuy]

@NeilDorf We have a full mattress in ours, but it would fit a queen. Boof (our Doodle) has a little bed at the section in front section. She's about 80 lbs and fits up there pretty comfy

[@peterdement]

You are both big people is the width of the bed (54-56") too narrow and uncomfortable. I do not mean the length of the bed or the comfort of the mattress.

[@PinayAndtheWhiteGuy]

Hi Peter, we used the 6" thick mattress, and that was very comfortable. As for the width, we still had a lot of room to move around and not feel cramped. Boof (our dog) even climbed between us a little while during one of the nights, and it wasn't bad. Hope that answers your question
