No, not at all. The truck is a diesel so it's not super quiet anyway. It's only higher than the truck cab by a little bit and I do plan to build a roof rack over the cab with a wind deflector.

It should be quite simple to fabricate new mounts to allow the driver's seat to move farther back. Any decent custom shop should be able to accomplish this.

I've been going through this same debate. My needs are a little different though as it is just me and my dog traveling and I'm doing shorter trips through the USA (maybe 30 days max). Because I already own this truck and have built it up over the years, I will be sticking with it. I will be...

I have a forklift and used it to load mine on. I was going to suggest trying to find someone with a forklift but I guess it couldn't have worked out any better! (y)

I have not installed it yet. I'm pretty sure I'm going to cut the back of the cab and build a full height passthrough instead. I think having just an open window will be too much of a pain to have to crawl through. I'll most likely sell the Breezer.

Had to google it as I had no idea what you were talking about. Here is a photo for others to see. While I think it is cool, it is way too big for my use. May be fine for what you're going to do with it though. I hope your windfall is significant because you're going to spend a ton of $ getting...

Wow, you've been through a lot! Sounds like you have a great attitude though. Please update us as you can. I have a '79 that will be going through a rebuild soon.

What kind of trailer are you pulling? Can you mount it on the trailer somewhere?

I'm a big fan of a pass through so here is my silly analogy: Do the bedrooms in your house open to the inside of the house or do you have to go outside to access them?

I posted this in another thread not too long ago. This one works well for me as it is just me and my dog traveling. Don't care what anyone else thinks about it. I bought it used on CL and got a great deal on it. Had been looking for a while but 6'6" bed models are hard to find and they are...

Yes, it is aluminum. Don't know what it weighs though. I did have to use my forklift to set it on the truck mostly because it has a 6" lift and sits pretty high.

My camper is lined with 1/4" cedar planks, t&g. They are very light weight. The truck is a Duramax that has been deleted and tuned so it is quite powerful. I did not notice any difference with the added height of the camper. I do plan on putting a rack on top of the cab and will probably have a...

I picked this up on CL last year for $350! Lined with cedar and insulated. Had a crappy bed/storage box with it which I removed. It is perfect for my needs as it is just myself and my dog. I am still debating on whether to keep the factory bed or convert to a custom flat bed. With a flat bed I...

Hey, I recognize you from the Corvette Forum! Great video, like most of yours are. Not sure how cool my truck is but it is a work in progress. I'll be making a trip down to Vegas this month or next. I'm just south of Carson/Tahoe.

Hey NVWill. Your truck is looking good! Love the rear bumper build. I'm down in Smith Valley. Here's my in progress build. Still debating whether to stay with the stock bed or build a custom flatbed. I got my H2 wheels from Jack @locrwln. His rig is amazing and also a big inspiration. Maybe...
