Adding additional height means you'll have to contend with extending a set of steps to enter the camper. Having to store them when not in use could prove problematic.

That is exactly what I thought of when he mentioned having all that space under the camper. Air Force One has one that extends out from under the side of it for when there are no roll up steps to use.
I was thinking a cross ways tray for the steps to slide out of but your slide out patio is a nice feature. Gives a person the side of the truck to use as sort of a handrail.
Well done Sir!

Even still I think it's exactly the solution and I applaud you bringing up the Video.
Being a Designer and a creative kind of guy, I will spend hours typing up a response to a question or problem, just so people can get a mental picture what it takes me a split second to design in my head.
You saved me a LOT OF TYPING.
Not to mention it's a Great Idea.
I may have to build one for my Class A Coach. I'm finding that as I get older I'm having more difficulty descending the 3 steep steps I have to use to exit my Coach.
Three on the automatic steps and two inside the coach.
I have a Basement compartment made to hold snow skies that I don't use to transport the steps inside.

Got the box painted today. Used raptor bedliner with a custom color match. It was metallic. Never again! Very difficult to get an even coat with a roller. Results are acceptable but not great.
Began the subframe construction this afternoon. This project thus far has been completely solo. Nice to have my friend Bill volunteer for the next few days!
Worlds biggest blood blister! (Second in as many days

I had always thought of my "Fido" project as of the same caliber as Air Force One..... Thank you for confirming my delusions!!

I think the Raptor stuff cures too quickly to be able to roller it.
We sprayed it using the splatter gun that comes with the 4 quart kit. It goes on thin but pretty even. I learned you don't want to build it up thick (more than about 2 or 3 thin coats). I tried to build up a section to 1/8" thick and it cracked and shrank when drying. It is pretty durable though when thin.
