    Bullfrog ver. 3.0 2001 Ford Excursion

    Still working on the charge controller shutoff, the fridge does have a shutoff, however for testing it is set to highest consumption rate and lowest voltage shutoff. It was originally installed in my 250 that had dual batteries , may still go to dual batts in this one, fun workin progress...

    Bullfrog ver. 3.0 2001 Ford Excursion

    I got it on amazon, it will fit TIGHTLY with both armrests, but I took the passenger armrest off for more clearance. Sits at a great height for an armrest. I did remove the center console and the 12v outlet that resides there was used to power the fridge. Install isnt complete yet as it is...

    Bullfrog ver. 3.0 2001 Ford Excursion

    On the third coast! So learned a couple of things, While solar and the singular battery will run the fridge 24/7, whodathunkit?, the solar panels actually require light !!! Seriously though I was testing and knew it was going to be pretty overcast for a couple days, and parked in the...

    Bullfrog ver. 3.0 2001 Ford Excursion

    Well bullfrog 1.0 was a converted silverado with toolbed/popup that was fun but to short for me to sleep in comfortably (sold it to a wildland firefighter who was significantly shorter than I am). Bullfrog 2.0 was a 2020 Ford F-250 7.3 gasser that I tried to make as close to an excursion as...

    Covert Camper, or Bullfrog 2.0

    Quick update, accordion boot ended up not requiring exactly matched cutouts and fit properly after removing the rear window from the truck and the front window from the topper. Enough space that you can transition between the cab and the bed fairly easily (Im 6'3" 190 lbs for comparison)...

    I guess prices have come up a bit, Might check on tax sales as well if you’re interested. Though getting 5-10 acres for 2500-3500 still isn’t so bad .

    It was a trip sponsored by the missus company, and it was a ton of fun. Been there a couple of times, first time was the Nissan Truck rally several years ago. My preferred area is Big Bend. As an aside to that, if you buy some acreage out on the Terlingua Ranch you have access to all the...

    2019 Honda CRF 450L

    I like that much more than the lock and load system risk uses. Tried the LAL on on of my trailers but it was a pita to try and work with...

    When i was at hidden falls on an unfamiliar bike (the rest of the group went with quads) the rekluse was a gamechanger, no worries about stalling, great throttle control, etc. That said, i installed the first one on the missus wr250r (she loves it) , and havent yet done mine. It is in the plans...

    2019 Honda CRF 450L

    Ok , in an effort to help you spend your money , have you looked into these ? https://www.uswe-sports.com/motosports/backpacks/off-road I keep tools on the bike, but fluids for me, snacks, tubes, etc go in the bag (anything that wont become a bar against my spine if/when I come off the bike)...

    Oh the WR250 is no 450L for sure. The 450L is in a class of its own in the factory street legal department and Honda reliability is well known (my first bike a 77 z50 is STILL being used by kids in the family out on a farm in East Texas). However, for me comparing what I would try on the 450L...

    I'm replying very late on this, but in reading I didnt see that you added a Rekluse clutch yet. This is one of the best mods out there IMHO. I rode one crf 250 in marble falls, Ive been a rider for over 40 years and this was a gamechanger in that I could focus on the trail and simply use...

    Covert Camper, or Bullfrog 2.0

    More to come as the build progresses. Having dual batteries and 397amps of alternator will probably preclude the need for solar, though a third battery may go in the bed box and get ties to the charging system. Still have to test a few things. When the passthrough is done (waiting on the...

    Covert Camper Buildout Base Vehicle 2020 F-250 XLT 7.3 Supercab 4X4 6.75 bed. Dual battery, dual alternator, locking rear diff (3.55 gears, as I coudlnt find the rest of the specs with the 4.30s) I looked at used Excursions but finding an unmolested one was tough and I wasn’t keen on the...
