It is a cute and practical concept for anyone that just maybe isn't comfortable with tents or needs something for a night or two. I would feel a bit more secure in this than a tent.

Thanks for the video. Nice to see it done before trying it myself. Question: In my Pahaque 5 x 7 in each corner about 4 feet off the floor there are 6 inch elastic loops with a small black hook on the ends. Do you know the purpose of these elastic straps? It's not obvious to me.

Looks very comfortable

Do you need to register this thing?

Pretty cool!

Can you extend the shelf in the closet where the water is stored to utilize the whole width of the closet?

Nice, what is the music at the beginning of the video. To me it sounds similar to "Frankie & Johnny" by Byran Ferry.

My wife owns a Scion xB which is about 2” shorter than this vehicle. I guess if you’re short like her this will work for ya! ✌🏽

"is this the best camper van build ever?" No, but its a great build, though! I would suggest ventilation under the mattress so you dont get mold. Overall, its lovely and creative ☺️

Can you sitdown on it upright?

Velcroing the containers to hold was a good idea. Thanks.

I got a similar bed for my Element. The head part can be pulled up like a sofa for sitting. The best is: lots of storage space.

Nice! Everyone is coming out with the kind of camper I was looking for a year too late.

How do you get out the back when your 2011 element doesn’t have any access handle latches

I can't imagine Cosmo Weems wanting one. "Where's the Kitchen!"

What about the bed?

Love it!...just ordered one!...thanks for video!

Brilliant. I have been trying to imagine a thing like this for several years. This is so thoughtfully designed. I particularly love the fold down for hauling wood, the bokie rack attachment, ane a place for STICKERS!!!!

I'm planning to camp in my Element during a two week road trip soon. I am not up for the extensive building that I have seen others do. This set up is so simple and useful. Thank you for sharing! Happy travels!

One of the best builds with an excellent narrative. Thank you.😊

Never thought about sleeping with woolen sox on. Somebody once suggested to have a hot water bottle in your sleeping bag. Or one of those rubber water bladders. Finally I came across a vid about a guy who made a candle heater. Here is the link if you are interested. ua-cam.com/video/6ZnayOUQN28/v-deo.html

Hey @campmymy I have this same bed however the end towards the passenger seat doesn't extend all the way out due to the middle glove compartment sticking oui. are you having the same issues?

FUCK CHILD SUPPORT

Do you use the mattress that came with the cot, or do you use memory foam cut to size?

There’s definitely wasted space in that water cabinet, but overall it’s a great lil build.

What is the vertical inch height under the frame to floor? I own an Element and wish to use milk crates for storage under cot..

Great tips. I have a heavy duty wool blanket and it's kept me nice and warm, along with a comforter and my furry baby 🐕, in 27° tent camping! Even in my tent I vent the windows to minimize condensation.

Gotta order one of these! Very convenient 👌

This is a pretty cool product, and we just bought one two days ago. The evening after buying this product, we found that one of the pols' elastic chord had been broken at one end and the segments of one of the longer poles would not stay together. So, after some work, we were able to tie a small nylon chord to both ends of the broken elastic chord. We contacted Kelty and got a huge argument from them about replacing the pole under warranty. They gave us zero options until I threatened to review them negatively on the internet. They then told me to destroy the shelter (cut it up and break the poles) and send pictures that we destroyed it, and they would send a new one. IT WAS JUST THE POLE! Why destroy the whole thing? After contacting a customer service (CS) manager, the CS rep offered to replace just the pole, but asked for a proof of purchase (which we had already sent them) along with pictures of the damage. Unfortunately, we didn't take pictures of the damage before we tried our own repair. Now, the damage is hidden in the pole segment and we would have had to break it to get to the damage to take a picture. So, we'll just wait for it to break again. Not sure I would purchase another Kelty product after this CS experience.

thanks for the demonstration, it is super helpful to me!

Way to go Myra!

Very useful information and tips. Thanks for posting.

I tried to post this yesterday. But, it never showed up. This is Brian's video on caulking the trailer, including his recommended caulk and tools. ua-cam.com/video/XJuORpQXpKQ/v-deo.html

looks like fun

I always enjoy your videos. I am a SUV camper now. I have been looking at Teardrops (T@G or Bushwacker with Brian Smith) or Squaredrop (Hiker Trailer). My head is spinning as I think about all of the options. You have tried many of them. What are your thoughts and comparisons. You should do a video on the pro's and con's of each, and why you are going with a Squaredrop vs.SUV (Honda Element) & T@G? Thanks.

Here is his video on repairing the Lap Sealant around the fan. ua-cam.com/video/UAyR1eCm6AA/v-deo.html

Here is a great video on how to reseal a teardrop or square drop by Brian Smith. He has many, many DIY repair videos. ua-cam.com/video/XJuORpQXpKQ/v-deo.html

Great concept, exactly what I am looking to build. How did you build the doors? Any help would be appreciated. Thank you

Just what I was looking for! Link to shelf would be sweet.

I like it simple

Nice

Simple and smart escaping places. Thank's for sharing. Greetings from Germany.

Finally, after a thousand camper van videos, someone is finally making sense. Simple lighting and electrical system. Can I get an amen!

why is this better on passenger side?

we ordered this for our small teardrop - the only worry we have is height between ground and bottom of window/door is 23 inches - one inch higher then 22 inch max allowance specified in specifications - will this be a problem?

I would like to see how people get out of bed in any of these transit connect conversions.

I’ve seen someone fit that little power bank in the back part of the cupholder console perfectly.

thank you for doing this video together, it was just what I was looking for

Can you tell me what the listed length of the cot is, so I can see if I'm looking at the right thing?

Can 2 of them cots fit?
