In the fourth and fifth picture you will see a brown shelf. This shelf holds my solar panel. It is attached to the cap with all thread coming down from the internal track off the roof. This cap has so many mounting options.

man its been over a month since somebody posted on here!

It was 70 degrees 3 weeks ago, 30 degrees 2 weeks ago, 70 degrees last week and now freezing at night and 40s during the day. I think our fall is officially over in Wisconsin.

Anyways, all of my Alu-Cab door handles were frozen this morning. It rained last night and must have froze. I made a video for Team Alu-Cab.

alucab sells a latch cover that will keep water and dirt out of the latch.

i didn't know that. i'll look into that.

EDIT: they sure are ugly. but maybe worth it. Think i'll just buy a Milwaukee M18 wireless heat gun for the few times this happens.

I was going to say you could just use your 12 volt hair dryer!

Would anyone like to buy a tray for the ammo boxes? I ordered it because I didn’t want to wait if I thought I needed it but I am reconfiguring the bed layout and do not need it.

Anyone interested in buying my canopy? Comes with two cupboards and ammo box slides. My wife has decided now that she wants the alucab camper. Which I’m ok with. Lol

I’m glad I decided on the Canopy Camper, was worried I’d do the same thing.
You’re going to love having the flexibility.

Do you have some pictures of what you have done on the inside? What size is the sleeping platform, is it comfortable? These are her questions. Lol

Next is the Dickinson heater and AluCab water tank.
our lower part is mainly open until build the base cabinets. Plan to do a horseshoe shape even with the door opening.

we did swap out the stock mattress for an Exped duo 15, this thing is awesome. Just leave a little under inflated. The top area we leave the small door open when we have the mr. heater on and keep the dog up top.

WD40 is also good to keep water out of the lock.
my issues weren't with the lock but the little pocket below thehandle, it freezes in there and then the handle wont open.
