I put a cutting board in my pillow case so I can angle it against the door without the pillow folding, then I can sleep in a recliner position

[@pv4669]

Who the heck sleeps in that position? They come in all flavors.

[@wesventures6426]

That is definitely a good idea that I never would have thought of!😁 I might have to try that sometime! I greatly appreciate your comment and thanks for watching!🙏🏻❤️

[@Sunny22445]

Your videos are awesome. Love how kind and honest you are to your viewers .

[@wesventures6426]

Thank you so very much for your kind words❤️ That truly means so much to me!🙏🏻 I greatly appreciate your comment and thank you for watching!🫶🏻

[@yungbman]

Honestly ill end up probably doing this too if I don't find a topper for dirt cheap lol

[@wesventures6426]

I hear ya! They are not cheap lol and this seems to work fine for me and possibly you!😁

[@zReignYT]

I also prefer this method. I have a hard top and use my bed for storage

[@wesventures6426]

Awesome!😁 It’s definitely nice having all that room for storage and keeping everything dry! I greatly appreciate you leaving a comment and thanks for watching!🙏🏻❤️

[@randy1203]

After spending the night in my drivers seat. Your video enters my orbit today!!!! I have a 2001 gmc sierra/with a topper also. After I decluter I'm going to give it a try. Those bug zappers do work!!! I enjoyed this video and eye opening content. Thanks for sharing!!

[@wesventures6426]

Thank you so much for the kind words!❤️ That’s awesome! I have also spent a few nights in my front seat as well. I used to have a 97 sierra single cab long box with a topper. I miss the heck out of that truck and wish I would have started the channel way back in the day with that truck. Eventually I’d like to get another one like it! Definitely give it a shot and let me know what you think! Thanks for leaving a comment and I greatly appreciate you watching! Cheers and safe travels!🙏🏻❤️

[@zReignYT]

Imo if you can do this. Its the best method. Just way better.

[@wesventures6426]

Agreed!👊🏻❤️

[@Ratman444]

Amazing in depth look my man. Very Organized and cleaner then most Truck campers I know. Also got to love all the stickers around the truck, Makes it unique and interesting to look at. Great Vid!

[@wesventures6426]

Thank you so much for the kind words brother!❤️ Definitely not the cleanest but I also put the truck through a lot! I love adding more stickers here and there! I feel like I have a little addiction to stickers in general and it just adds character. I appreciate your comment and thanks for watching!🙏🏻❤️

[@maggiemae1969]

I have a plywood platform on top of the back seat of my F150. Covered with an egg crate pad and a kids size memory foam pad that fits in the space perfectly. Love being able to just hop in the back and sleep, lots of storage underneath the platform. I have a hard top tonneau cover and most of my gear goes in the back. I do put one seat forward where my feet go and that allows me to sleep flat and almost completely stretch out by putting my feet in that space. All other options I have looked at are very expensive. I also like the peace of mind that I could just hop into the front seat and leave if something made me feel particularly unsafe.

[@AustinOkeefe-sm5jx]

i tell you brother. i really enjoy watching your videos. you do what you think is best. only change something because you want to. screw the negative comments there just words. screw them. keep going with the great videos brother!

[@wesventures6426]

Man thank you so much for the kind words brother!❤️ I don’t let the negative comments get to me anymore. I have way too many people supporting me and enjoy the way I camp which makes my day! I greatly appreciate you leaving a comment and thank you so much for watching! More videos to come!🙏🏻❤️

[@tamarataylor5063]

Love this. Trying it this week

[@wesventures6426]

Thank you so much!❤️ Awesome! I wish you the best and hope you have a great time!🙏🏻

[@tamarataylor5063]

@wesventures6426 it was awesome! That set up is a keeper.

[@dave22959]

Luno make s screens that fit over door, so that you n roll the windows down. keeps the bugs out and you can still close and lock the doors.

[@wesventures6426]

I will definitely have to look into that!! Thank you!😁 I appreciate your comment and thanks for watching!🙏🏻❤️

[@wendelclements6448]

Hey man you be you. This is why I watch you is because you camp the way you camp. I get it. They have some magnetic screens that you can use for your windows for the summer. I do enjoy and good kayaking trip catch and cook as I know you like to cook. Keep the vidoes coming man they’re awesome. As always man safe travels

[@wesventures6426]

Thank you so much for the kind words brother!❤️ I definitely need to look into those or something to let some air flow in. Definitely plan to do many more catch and cooks in the future! There will be a lot more videos to come! I greatly appreciate your comment and thank you so much for watching!🙏🏻❤️

[@jcricket-vr5xr]

Definitely a great set up thanks for another awesome video Wes hope all is well with you and the family

[@wesventures6426]

Thank you so much brother!❤️ Same goes for you my friend!🙏🏻

[@fx45slow16]

Awesome video! Awesome channel! You gotta come up and do some camping fishing, exploring In Idaho! Shout out from the Treasure Valley, Idaho 🤙🏻🤟🏻

[@wesventures6426]

Thank you so much for the kind words!❤️ Man I’d love to come and fish,camp,hunt out in Idaho! It’s definitely on the bucket list that’s for sure! I greatly appreciate you leaving a comment and thanks for watching!🙏🏻❤️

[@douglasrykerd6266]

I use a dog hammock and a Coleman inflatable kid’s mattress that fits perfectly filling all the way to the back of the front seats. A small cooler on the floor of one side and a tool bag on the other side keep everything from sinking into the gap. The mattress top is even with the top of the center console so it’s easy to slide back from the front seat.

[@brenfrees2812]

I do the same but perfer the front seat ,dont need to.keep re adjusting the front seats for more room

[@wesventures6426]

I have also done that as well and seems to work just fine!😁

[@courtneysmit38]

Awesome video! I have been following you for a while and you have inspired me to get outside and camp! Just did two different tent camping trips last week! Love the content !

[@wesventures6426]

Thank you so much for your kind words!❤️ That is awesome!!😁 Get out and camp while you can! I wish you the best on your upcoming trips and stay safe!🙏🏻❤️

[@brenfrees2812]

Im.way too old now and a little larger,used to sleep in the the back of my truck topper and climb through the topper window and cab window and drive away,never needed to walk around to cab

[@MountainAjar]

Keep rocking it

[@wesventures6426]

Thank you so much!🤘🏻❤️

[@jameskilburn4456]

Ever thought about a rear seat delete and building something?

[@wesventures6426]

I have many times! The only problem with that is I have 3 daughters so if they ever need to ride in my truck it wouldn’t work…maybe someday though! I appreciate your comment and thanks for watching!🙏🏻❤️

[@jameskilburn4456]

@@wesventures6426 totally understand, just curious because I have the same truck, love the videos man.

[@VirgoBoi88]

Nice😊

[@wesventures6426]

Thank you!😊❤️

[@scottjohnson6173]

OK I get the jest. It’s just a personal preference that you like it. The way it is that’s OK I have no qualms with that. It’s just who you are.

[@gunnerthomas9723]

Come up to minnesota and camp on an island at west two rivers campground

[@wesventures6426]

I might just have to do that sometime!😁 Looked it up and it looks like a pretty cool area!🤘🏻

[@phantp78]

Do you ever think about taking out the back seats and building a bed platform?

[@wesventures6426]

I actually have but I have daughters so I haven’t just in case I need to throw the car seats in. I appreciate your comment and thanks for watching!🙏🏻❤️

[@zReignYT]

Neeeeed that bracket 😭

[@wesventures6426]

I have a link in the video descriptions of me installing it since I made it myself😁

[@mariahjames2395]

🥰

[@Big_Adv3nturer]

I have no choice but to sleep in the bed of the truck or in a tent being 6’8 350.

[@wesventures6426]

You are tall my friend!😎 I just barely luck out with my height lol

[@JoeT-re5ro]

Same problem I’m 6”3 I can sleep in my rav4 if I bend my legs

[@daynadiggle8169]

One thing you haven't mentioned is what do you do if you gotta go poopy and don't want to leave the truck ? Say there's a bear hanging around outside ? Please answer .

[@wesventures6426]

Crack the window & shoot the bear then continue on with #2 out of the truck😂 Just kidding!😉 Honestly 99% of the time black bears are more scared of humans than we are of them… I’ve never had any issues luckily and I feel like when I unlock my truck my LED lights are so bright it would probably scare them off. Thanks for the comment and I greatly appreciate you watching!🙏🏻❤️

[@potlickerhound7262]

I have a gmc2500hd 4x4 etended cab with small back seat area...ive slept there on fishing trips and also a leer top w/bed setup. Have you looked at truck bed tents as a option? Where did you get the interior overhead rack from thx.

[@matb9784]

clean in the inside your truck thats dirttty

[@Wilderbliss17]

Make it make sense

[@Sunny22445]

Its a hunters truck not a mall crawlers

[@davidbeutler7665]

Why don’t you do breakfast then hit the road.

[@wesventures6426]

Unfortunately most of the time I film it tends to be on sort of a time crunch since I have 3 daughters at home. I will try to start making more breakfast in my videos! 😋I greatly appreciate you leaving a comment and thanks for watching!🙏🏻❤️
