2019 Taco with easily removable platform.  
This is boulder mode but my wife and I fit perfectly along with all gear for extended trips climbing or developing.  The pole brush doubles as a fishing rod to grab gear way in the back up by the cab!

Thanks brother! Can’t take it nowhere cause a carburetor is pretty much open heart surgery to my dumbass. But my friends love it as the guest room when they come visit, so that’s cool.

Carburetors are pretty cheap these days and are actually pretty easy to install

A classic little home away from home. Half stealth brag, half a reminder I need to get out in this thing more often now that it’s running well again.

If you hate nature I highly recommend one of flextrek’s backpacks

Somehow this thread ended up over in the politics thread when there was a MP shuffle years ago.  Anyway: https://www.mountainproject.com/forum/topic/115347172/tacoma-shell-camper-plans-and-pictures-2nd-gen

Illegal to do so in California unfortunately unless it's CARB certified and CARB certified carburetors don't really exist anymore. 

I appreciate that California is taking climate change seriously but some of these laws are batshit insane.

I had a nice little build for my taco but now just have a forester. All these builds are making me want a truck again!

Easily switched between coffin sleeping and floor to ceiling sleeping

nothing stealth about my rig but it's a really nice home on wheels. 

the kitchen, fridge, sink and porta potty are a game changer and really make rain days more tolerable

I have just enough power to be comfortable but if I ever build another rig I will go with 400w of solar and 400amp hr of battery instead of the 200 that I put in this rig. I have never actually run out of power but the peace of mind of having more power on hand would be nice. My batteries are 5yr old AGM so I suspect they are on the tail end of their service life?  14gl of fresh water in two 7gl tanks. As soon as one jug is empty we start looking for a good place to refill . That gives us 4 to 5 days to find a good refill.

Nick, what do you use for a porta-potty? I am trying to figure out which way to go.

I use something like this from wall mart. Not sure the exact brand. I got it for Isa.  it was a game changer for her. we time things so we never have to use it for #2 though knowing you could if you had to is nice. https://www.walmart.com/ip/Costway-5-3-Gallon-Portable-Travel-Toilet-Outdoor-Camping-Toilet-w-Piston-Pump-Flush/848611106?from=/search

Watch out, I hear those builds can get top heavy!

It ain’t much, but it’s comfortable enough to live in months at a time

This is my work / camping / regular life set up. Drawer pulls out with storage. Right side folds over so I can push a bike or lumber in there. Then I can sleep in the left side or down in the hole or really stretch out on top of it all. Table saw fits underneath. Still gotta build some screens for the windows and insulate the cap. 

Guideline #1: Don't be a jerk.
