    Are you going to live in that setup? That is one heck of a setup for sure.

    Yes I live in it now! Well it’s currently getting the bumper installed so it’s in the shop this week but the plan has been to live in it and drive through Central America while working. Broke in the full-time setup through a few national parks the last couple months and heading south soon!

    many more photos coming.

    That is a piece of art over there. congrats. can you send more pictures please?
    few questions if you don't mind, how is the inside camper looks like, how many people can you fit there? adults & children. what is your average gas mileage now? do you need wind deflector on the truck rooftop?

    Hi! Yes happy to answer questions! :)
    I will be posting more on my IG: https://www.instagram.com/jesmor3/
    Are you on Instagram? I will make a story for all my truck videos. I made a lot of huge upgrades so I'll wait to post something for you until I have new photos!

    Avg mpg is a flat 12. Wasn't the priority, and I think I got everything else I wanted in the truck so far :)

    I have not installed a wind deflector but maybe I will later using a roof top rack if it fits under the camper.

    You can fit two adults on the queen bed, and one adult on the dinette when converted to a bed (I've taken a nap on it when I didn't want to pop the top, and I'm 6'1". I suppose maybe you could fit 2 kids and 2 adults. It's hard to fit 2 adults next to each other at the dinette when eating, but someone usually sits on the front bench by the cab window.

    Here's a photo at Toyota to get the alignment done after the ICON suspension was installed (and the shop had her detailed) :)

    Do you feel you have enough engine power?? I am interested in similar build,
    The SR5 has a payload capacity range of ~1,800 Lb and the hawk flatbed weight ~1400 Lb? that leaves around 400 Lb for passengers, water and groceries.

    PLENTY of power with the twin turbo! I'm actually really impressed. I can pull away on the highway no problem at all. I was expecting less.
    I have not weighed my GVW yet but maybe this month.

    Sorry to hear about the bureaucratic hurdles and hope all the paperwork gets sorted soon. Looks like you’re putting the extra time stateside to good use!

    I imagine there are endless places to see and things to experience in Central America. What’s on your list?

    Hey Oakman!
    I recently got a job offer I just can't refuse. It's a major change but an awesome opportunity short term and long term. It's been a hard decision becuase I have been travelling full time for 1.5 years, and was JUST starting my PANAM trip in this awesome new Tundra, which was going to be Nov '23 through March '25.

    However, this new job is sadly not as remote as I had previously. I'm considering selling the rig because it only made financial sense if I was living in it full time. I have both titles in hand and might list it for sale in January. Won't be rushed but thinking about 125k. Wanted to give you a heads up cause you seem interested in the build. Happy to give you a video tour of it if you're interested.
