Just got back from PIB campout, almost 300 miles{ NO TRAILER} driven in two days. Did great until about 6 miles from home started having a little miss in the engine but it got me home. Took the back seat out and slept in it last night, pretty comfortable. Good time at PIB, and got a lot of thumbs up on the road. :D

Great idea. You made a "Sleeper Cab" out of it -Just like the Big Rigs. ;)

Ask him about that super heater he uses, I think it caught his right pant leg on fire on the way home :lol:

It's a Mr. Heater, tough buddy, dual heating elements and a battery operated fan. Route 20 on the way was a little rough and kept tripping the heater to off. By the time I got to Toledo I was warmed by the sun, and my happiness of finally driving this thing. :D

Wow, don't know how I missed this before.

I seem to have a "thing" for Bay double cabs. I are realty looking forward to seeing this on up close. Excellent work on this project! I couldn't have done any better that's for sure :lol:
