    Bed platform with storage underneath, LED strip lights, deep cycle dual battery setup, fridge, fan, etc. It's set up so I can sleep in it when I tow my dirtbike out to ride loops.

    how did you get your LED strip to stick? I used Velcro tape for mine and it looks a little tacky. Yours looks very clean! love the setup

    Thanks, guys. It's really comfortable to sleep in. The fridge will run for several days without recharging. I used Reflectix to make window covers and it helps to keep the shell cooler.

    I used a curved needle to stitch it to the liner with black thread. The sticky back of the strip didn't stick worth a damn.

    I pretty much live out of mine when I'm back in the States so it stays loaded with camping gear most of the time. It's actually pretty clean in this picture; no clothes, food, packs/bags, toys (fishing rods, etc) or stuff like that. The curtains are stowed in the cabinet to the side along with tools, recovery gear and other camping gear. The side box is attached to the plywood floor which is also carpeted with the same indoor/outdoor carpet. I've got a piece that fits at the head of the bed also; it's nice to not bump against the cold plastic when it's cold outside. Depending on where I'm going and the weather I put either the cooler or refrigerator on the platform behind the passenger seat.

    I've tried full and partial platforms and do not care for them as much since you can't sit up in them or move around as much. Not as big a deal for a weekend but when you spend more time in it it's really nice to be able to easily change clothes or sit and read/use a computer/cook/whatever when it's raining or otherwise bad weather or you're trying to be stealthy. Having the full height available makes loading other stuff easier too.

    I just went topless. Trying to keep it off for a month. It's all good until I put tools back in it.

    That's true. With a cab height shell, there isn't enough room to sit up. You really need a high top shell to use a platform comfortably.
