Ahahahha ya having the hangar to work in while on weekend duty is pretty nice. $60,000 tool boxes with aircraft grade tools at my disposal and a wash spot that I can wash my truck or trailer with 120* water.

Truck and trailer are both looking good. Is there a way to bypass the reverse gear and turn on the camera while driving so you could monitor the trailer if wanted?

ya there could be but i would have to add in a switch and power from a different spot. But it is possible I have scene a couple other Tacoma guys do it.

Got my Insulation put in yesterday, I used sheets of Reflectix that I got from home depot. I didn't need anything more than this since the coldest it gets where I will be using it the most is into the 20s. I already have a 15* sleeping bag plus the mr buddy propane heater. I run that a little bit before I got to bed and when I wake up as needed. I put it on the walls, ceiling and rear ramp under the plywood deck, and all of it was put up with 3m spray adhesive to hold it in place. Still kinda in between on whether or not I will put some under the floor of the trailer..... I guess I will have to wait and see what it is like when it is cold out.

Looks good. I'm still working on insulating my aluminum topper on my tundra. I got styrofoam installed and I also picked up a roll of reflective sheets to help even more.

Even for being so thin it works pretty dang good. I know with one or two people putting off body heat and mr buddy it will be ice and toasty in there.

Well I can work on my junk but I have to bring my own tools. Ya one of our tool boxes is $60,000 without all the special tools that we add to it once we get it.

This where I ran the wire up from under the floor

This is where it comes out so I can mount it to the fuse panel

All the switches. The white one is for the dome light that runs off of the trucks battery while hooked up

One is just a 12v socket and one is USB

Nice work. I want an enclosed trailer for my RzR so I can double it as a camper. Only use the rzr a few times a year. Other times. I rather not pull a trailer for my adventures. I do want to build up an enclosed trailer but I just won't get much use out of it. So far I have been having fun building my topper on my tundra.

Got my interior lighting in today. With two 6 foot sections, if I need more light all I need to do is attach more with the special no solder connectors that I got.

So I finally got around to mounting my lights. They come with double sided tape and I mounted them to the roof ribs. Now they are bight but not blinding which is perfect.

This is one strip only, you can see that they put out a very good amount of light for only being 3 feet long
