Give specifics please. Looking at the bed. Is your kitchen at the front of the bed directly behind the cab? Are you using the bed slide or does it lift up somehow? Also love the asymmetric barn doors! How long gave you had it?

Yes the kitchen is directly behind the cab to keep the weight as forward as possible. The bed slide functions as normal with a gap of about an inch to the countertop. I slide it out at bed time, the rest of the time it is slid forward and I simply fold the Exped mattress over out of the way providing access to the kitchen.
The camper was installed in July and I completed the build by September. The build includes 18 gals of water with a sink and 12v water pump. The 10 lb propane tank feeds the 2 burner stove top and Propex heater. A 275 AH lithium battery supplies the 12v system which includes Victron DCDC changing from the alternator, Victron DCAC inverter and Victron solar charger (no panels yet).
The barn doors are a must have for my usage profile. Love them.

Where's the water storage at? What kind of tank did you go with?

The water tank is the big white box in the second pic of my first post. All the heavy stuff is pushed as far forward as possible, as the basis for this build was to be “light weight” with a CG that was in front of the rear axle. I ordered the tank from Tank Depot.

Wouldn't mind some specifics on how you plumbed that propane through the door.

It was simple enough. Just drilled a hole and installed a propane bulkhead fitting. I sealed up the surfaces also to avoid water leaks.

Got a close up picture of it?
Also do you find that you get a lot of splatter while cooking inside?

A week ago I camped out and when I went to bed it was 17F out. I set the thermostat to 55F. The heater cycled for 10 hours and kept me cozy warm. I then went straight to the propane filler to see how much I used. They only put in 0.3 lbs. the 10 lb tank really only holds 8 lbs but that gives me a good idea on how long the propane will last when it is cooold out. Happy camper!

No pics of the fitting sorry. And yes the stove top can splatter bacon grease, but I just wipe it up from the countertop after. No biggy.

I found the fitting online that I used.
