    First, LOVE IT!
    I'm actually doing a VERY similar build (once my truck shows up, the canopy camper is waiting, passenger side Goose Gear (same setup) on order, doing a RedArc TVMS with the Manager30). A couple other differences, but damn close. My question for you is..that last shot of the electrical setup, can you take a picture a bit zoomed out from there? Perspective just has me not quite seeing it right I think. Thanks!

    How do you like the bed slide with this set up? I was looking at either doing this or the decked system.

    Can anyone provide a link for the connector that takes the MC-4 from a solar panel and connects it to the built-in receiver on the roof of the Canopy Camper? Thought it was an Anderson connector, but neither of the ones I ordered fit. I can't seem to order the right connector online.

    Thank you.

    In case anyone has a similar issue in the future, you will want a 50A Anderson connector. Amazon sell them.

    This is what I used:

    Build out coming along nicely. Waiting for mounts for solar panels, the alucab water tank and spare tire carrier. Using an ecoflow delta for my power source. Will be adding a shore power plug on left rear to connect to ecoflow. Power is already ran by tinyrigco.com for this stand alone unit. Just have to hook up the solar and it's ready to go. Trying to figure out how to make a connection for the propane tank so I can have an inside outside system.

    Very nice. You’ll love that combo. I see you got it from AVO as well.

    Mine is getting built this week as well...but I don't have any pics yet. Can't wait to be a contributor to the thread rather than just drooling over it! Looking good!

    In reference to the Camper on the floor to the right. It looks like the new units have the zip up rain fly. Super happy to see that!

    Congratulations man, you're gonna love it.

    Camped in the snow down in NC last weekend, cozy as hell inside the alucab

    And, if anybody is interested...height for a stock OR with a canopy camper on it (so, this is on stock suspension, which probably has a little sag, but not a ton with just the camper on it...once the awning and shower cube go on...and some of the other stuff goes in, I am betting on a big more sag).

    Post 274 of this thread, on version 1 right now, it's getting rebuilt this winter to incorporate a more comfortable lounging spot (for when I wake up on cold mornings and let my wife sleep in). Also swapping the sliding the doors that hold the kitchen on the right side for drawers, adding some vertical storage in the back driver side corner, with a sink on top.
