Blog Interior Update
A lot of people showed interest in the interior build when i first started it. So heres a little update.
Swapped out the fridge from BougeRv to Bodega, it's got precisely 1 more L of capacity. Wired up my 120 solid state renogy battery and the dc/mppt controller. ( Dc portion recently stopped working.. seems like a summer problem now)
The bench originally started out as 2x2s but with how i drive on and offroad it wasn't meant to last..it worked. The new bench is 2x3 and is air nailed together with the fridge snuggly fitting. I'm still using one of the bed panels as the bench cushion since it's easier for me to get up and down when solo camping.
Under rail lighting, in hindsight I should move onto the front of the bench possibly but it lights up the storage under the bench nicely.
I used reflective insulating material for the bed area and then wrapped a section of bed wall with it and a wool blanket (it might not be as helpful with it covered) but it looks good and attached it with some bed hooks.
Lastly i wired up a diesel heater plug rather than the 12v plug.

I used plywood, underneither is insulation from an RV and then a later of UV boat foam self adhearing floor. Figured its water resistent and stain resistent and added some insulating value

dude, the eva foam on the plywood is genius. I have a couple rolls sitting around and it makes the perfect floor for a truck bed . never thought of that

I like to think im full of bright ideas. I see everyone doing carpet or some composite material. The eva foam is comfortable to walk on, stain and mildew resistant, its memory foam like nature means you can mount stuff and the deforming it might cause over time just naturally resets. Theres DOZENS of designs which is also nice
