Somewhere around 7'3" depending on if you have the extra bedding option. I'm 6'3" and have plenty of room to stand with the extra few inches.

I'm planning on doing something similar also using 1050 extrusion. I figured I'd drill through the studs and put a bolt that'd get me into a TNUT in the channel. I wasn't planning on putting 8020 on the inside but that could work too. Looking forward to seeing how it goes for you if you beat me...

If you're not building campers, you should at least have time to answer emails and phone calls. There are excuses for not delivering campers but there is no excuse for not communicating with people who have already handed over a large sum of money for a product that hasn't been delivered on time.

Also seems special that you couldn't comment on their post.

Tent insulation is something you can add later or they can ship later. I don't even know if they're doing Front Runnner doors any more. They haven't proven to be super reliable and they tend to cause leaks. The Tern stuff is definitely higher quality. I switched from a Vagabond order on my truck...

My bed is 65x80". I'm 6'3 so it's more of a N-S setup for me. With that said, one of the perks of the OVRLND is that it's built for the truck so there's no excessive overhang on any sides and I appreciate that when wheeling (my truck is already big enough)

I use a Kenwood D710G. It's an excellent radio for overlanding because it's got APRS, crossband repeat and a digipeter which can extend my coverage to repeaters/igates when I'm hiking. I also had a Kenwood TS480HX in my old rig for HF with a Tarheel screwdriver antenna but I'm still trying to...

We used 3" HD36-HQ foam. It's pretty supportive and your hips won't bottom out. With that said, it's comfortable but not the most comfortable. Far more comfortable than sleeping pads or any kind of ground sleeping. I don't think I'd go any thicker for closing the top. We have the extra 2" and...

It's roughly 24" and I'm pretty happy with that width. It's wide enough that I can use it to store things, it's wide enough where even my German Shepherd can lay there. It feels like it's enough room for people to sit on each side and still have room, although in the 8 days of camping we've done...

The benches are definitely strong enough to use as a shelf. The shelves (as I've built them) are not strong enough to use as a step. For one, it's just 1/4" plywood. It's also pretty tall with minimal support structure (keep in mind that the entire part of that structure that faces the rear of...

I had custom mattresses made from Foam Factory.

Maybe that didn't answer your question. The wood on top is attached using concealed (european) hinges. The wood on the sides is 1/4" plywood that slides into the extrusion channel.

I built a floor/baseplate that is mounted to the bed using the bed bolts (well, actually they're somewhat longer than the OEM bed bolts). From there I use hammer in tee nuts on the bottom of the board. It's pretty solid but I'm not a huge fan of the hammer in Tee Nuts. A few of them failed after...

It fits nicely underneath the mattresses above. Originally I figured we'd leave it up there until bedtime but now I'm more inclined to leave it up there until the weather deteriorates so we need to go inside. I built this as an outside-first camper (think glorified tent) where the only reason to...

It's been a mad dash to get the camper ready for some of our bigger camping trips of the year. I rushed to get things in a pretty solid state for a trip we planned to Rocky Mountain National Park this past weekend. This meant a 2nd bed for the kids/dogs (we're crazy trying to fit 2 adults, 2...

I was hoping to find one at the local hardware store but I had to settle for a manual tap. That is painful so I have two 1/4-20 combo taps on the way already. Definitely planning on going easy on the bits but figured I'd get a second one just in case.

The regular camper looks like the cabover portion is attached to the box of the rest of the camper. The AF camper is more like a bigger top is attached to the top of the camper that goes all the way from the cabover thru the bed. The AF cannot have extra bedding height but you can do two tone...

I'm in the thick of my interior build out! There's more in my build thread here: https://expeditionportal.com/forum/threads/the-blue-06-tundra-dc-limited-backcountry-camping-build-adventure-thread.217522/post-3028006

Which brings me to this week. The OVRLND camper comes as a shell. There's really nothing but a platform for a bed in it. This was part of the allure to me. I look at it as an awesome blank canvas to build out the adventure rig of my dreams and that's exactly what I'm working on now. I mocked up...

Let's fast forward a little bit more than a year. It was a busy time with a newborn kid and not as much time for adventure. Any adventure we had was via airplane and mostly to share the new baby with the family. But in late 2021, I sold my spot for my Vagabond Outdoors Nomad wedge camper. I just...
