Hi there,
Im new to the forum, but have always watched this site for ideas. Over the years Ive had a number of campers, and currently have a big family camper for the kids. But I needed a mini camper for trips without them. I just cant see rolling down the highway at 20k lbs just for one person. Also, you're greatly limited on where that rig can go.
so here we go:
This all happened in the last 6 months or so.
I have an older Chevy Colorado, had it for years, great vehicle. 4x4, 5.3 V8, 4 dr, you get the idea, and can see the pictures.
step 1: removed the bed, they are such a waste of space
Step 2: built new bed. Eventually i will build some storage up under the fenders, toward the back. I forgot to take a picture of the completed bed before i started on the vamper frame, but all i did was slap some grey implement paint on it, and used some pressure treated boards to make the deck. Also painted.
some of my phone pictures are too large to upload. Not sure what to do about that
