For an additional $2,000, you could have had the company professionally insulated your Moonlander. Now the 2 year warranty is invalid since you did repairs on your own. You might want to get your eye checked for pink eye since it’s highly contagious.
Man Anthony ahould just bought a truck camper, he would had more space along with other amenities, probably for a few hundred dollars more than what he paid for the truck topper.
I wonder if he checked capri campers as they are reasonable and all wood or cedar inside compared to the moon top. If he likes it that’s what counts. I’m thinking of going with the capri cowboy.
Pink eye can cure itself you know. As long as he’s not around anyone else and he doesn’t contaminate the other eye by way of frequently washing his hands and keeping pillow cases clean and changed, he should be fine.
He can remove anything he’s done so why would his warranty become invalid? All he did was tape up some foam, but I too wondered why it didn’t come already insulated.🤷🏽♀️
@@tinasoblessed6350 he still does he got the truck topper/camper to save money on campgrounds an to save gas since the camper is much heavier to tow than just having the truck topper he made a video about it maybe 2 or 3 videos before this one
Absolutely pure craziness to be so uncomfortable for so much money, and have to spend even more, when it probably will never be a great place to spend any long periods of time in. Especially when he has a warm/cool perfectly functioning camper. But, it’s his adventure to explore.
He sure does… spends money on a RV, just to pay money at other campsites just to complain of the cost, then buys a topper just to redo over… he’s hilarious 😂😂😂 rinse and repeat
Perhaps it easier to sleep stealth in truck camper than hall his trailer everywhere to be charged a fee every time! He's doing a great job and he's enjoying it!😊❤
If you have aches and pains sleeping on your side, a pillow between you knees really helps. I don’t really know why, but it was the only way I could sleep before I had my hip replaced last year. Now that I’m all healed up, I still do it as I grew used to it. Give it a shot Anthony, you never know.
Anthony … keep on saying what you say, thinking what you think, doing what you do, spending how you choose and ignoring the critical naysayers. You are an awesome and rare human! ❤
Hi Anthony! You should look into getting something like the Froli bed system or slats that will allow for air under your mattress. If it sits directly on metal or the styrofoam without air gaps, mold can easily grow.
Happy to see it warmed up enough for you to make the adjustments for the insulation. One more thing you will not have to worry about while on the road trip to Texas.
It seems like a whole lot more work to live the van life then to just rent an apartment. The money you spent on all these different vehicles and all the stuff you need to live in them seems to be way too much and exhausting but it's your life.
Heeeey Anthony, not that you read or listen to ANY of my comments/unsolicited advice 😂👀 However, you are soooo funny and entertaining. Lawdy, I'm screaming 😱 at you 5:20am saying, "WHY don't you just flip the dang blue foam over to the flat side 😂🤪" BUT not sure if you heard me however my neighbor did🤭😅 by the stomps🦶🏼🙎🏽🦶🏼😘 keep us laughing. You need to make a compilation of your BLOOPERS.. I bet it'll go viral🫶🏼
Be careful you don't end up with mould under the bed if it can't breathe. It's like sleeping with a mattress on the floor, after a couple of weeks mould will grow from lack of air
@@annettechuna6197you probably shouldn’t have assumed she’s American. Mold is the American spelling of the word. Elsewhere it’s spelled mould. The more you know, before trying to correct people publicly.
Again-- like I suggested before-- get a Mr Buddy Heater-- get the large one & you can put a grate on top of it & cook on it which will also help heat up the inside while you cook. All my extended camping family have used the Mr Buddy Heaters for many years. Also get a battery operated heating pad or blanket for your bed.
Anthony those foam mattress have instructions that tell you they have to sit for a while to open up and pop up. All foam pads have to "air out" to puff up. You cannot stick it under the mattress or that will not happen. It will look "deformed" until it sits out open to the air. Some of them say for 24 hours. Take it out from under the mattress. Hugs from NE Ohio.
Anthony, praying that you don't get sick 🤧be extra careful. Please wear a 😷working with & using foam boards like that, also check for any sight of forming mold/mildew, just concerned. Stay warm & enjoy your trip.
Hi Anthony, wish you well at whatever you do. That’s why I watch you. You do things I would never try. I’m too spoiled by the conveniences I have. I’d be broke from hotel renting. Do you & enjoy
Wondering if there are any cheap parking garages you can park in to give you an extra layer of warmth and protection. I’m worried about you as it’s getting colder and colder out there. Def get some flannel sheets, an electric blanket, insulate the ceiling so heat doesn’t escape, and insulate the floor. You’re such a trooper and doing great! Just wanna offer ideas to help you stay warm.
Hello Anthony, happy Wednesday. I hope that the insulation makes your truck camper more comfortable. I know that you're going to make it very cozy. I'm so happy for you 😻❤️
Don't expect a big change in heat retention with the foam in place. While foam board can be effective insulation in truck toppers (I used it in mine), the thickness you used has very little R-value. 1-1.5" is necessary to really keep the heat in, and even then only if you use it on the ceiling, too--that's where 80% of the heat escapes. But, what you did is better than nothing and if you combine it with a Mr. Heater Buddy (as other commentors suggested) you'll probably be OK.
Anthony you should buy a piece of 1 inch ply wood to put under the foam, because the foam will start cracking and chipping after awhile, the plywood will keep it rigit
You have made enough money to buy a small home in a nice area. BUY A HOME! You have had enough adventure now. At age 60, you need to be thinking about your future. Be sensible.Be smart. You do not need to sleep in a car anymore. It’s time to be done with this crazy game. It was fun-but it is not practical.Ask yourself-Where will you be in 5 years?
If that white foam breaks under your bed it will be a mess with all the foam balls under your bed. I thing the foam mattress pads would insulate better😊
Hello Anthony & FOA's, nice job installing the insulation on your bed. You are turning into Tool Box Tony 😂 Wishing you the best with your new truck topper. Stay safe my brother. 🙏
If you put a sleeping bag on top of your mattress and then tuck a top sheet on that besides and then put a blanket then you should keep warmer but leave the sleeping bag zipped up just roll it out over your mattress
Hi Anthony make sure you put up the DampRid to keep the moisture in the camper down and to avoid mold. But glad you are getting the foam boards up it will help you out in the summer as well. When are you coming to VA? I have a little gift for you.❤❤❤ love the camper
Hmmm…styrofoam over a time period will begin to break down and break up. Why not use another form of insulation designed for such use? Maybe a custom place would give you some insight on what would be best to use.
I was waiting for it and then it popped up on the screen "ain't no fancy editing here😂😂😂❤ i love when you do these type of projects....looks amazing . Have a great day/ night.
Looks good to me but realize Anthony, you not getting any younger when you have better place to be warm Because count your blessings you are not Homeless that's your choice to be cold
A extra large heating pad that has an automatic cut off would be nice too. Mine has 5 settings, on warm will keep you toasty for about 4 hours if I’m not mistaken. I absolutely love mine.
Anthony, if i were you, I'd get one of those tri-folding, foam lounge chairs... The ones that open up into a bed... I'd use it to sleep on the floor... During the day, you can fold it and use it as seating... I'd use the space where you have your bed now for a cooking, eating, and desk area... Also, tension rods with heavy fabric that's been cut to size would help if added to the perimeter. You could do velcro strips to hold the fabric against the walls better... A shaggy floor rug and a pair of fur-lined crocs that you only wear inside to keep dirt out. Might sound complicated, but my vision would look nice if I was there to help 😅
Hello Anthony I hope the insulation will keep you warmer and under your bed I don’t want you getting sick stay warm my friend have a great weekend God bless you 🙏🏻🥰🎄🎅🏻
Hello Anthony and FOA Members! I hope everyone is having a beautiful blessed day! I usually make a little comment, But today I have a question, I know Anthony has a camper/house in Florida, is this a new camper,do they both do the same thing? I'm only asking because I don't know or understand 😢
You carpeted the bed, but did you insulate underneath the carpet and use a moisture barrier? I don't think the carpet alone was enough on the floor-bed.
Hi Anthony, You have been a busy camper lately! How are you adjusting to the cold weather & city sounds (noises) in Baltimore? Always something exciting to do and good eats in B-town.
No shade…I promise!!! Why a truck topper camper? I understand wanting more mobility than your pull camper gives you, but why not a bigger van that you could build out to have almost as much functionality as your pull camper has with a great deal more warmth and space or a REAL truck camper? I’m just curious.
Hi Anthony, after putting the insulation on the underside of your bed be on the lookout for your mattress sweating on the platform. You’re doing a great job !
Get one of those silver windshield shades..looks like reflectix..put it under YOU (between the mattress and the covers! Or a 100%wool blanket on top of the mattress.
Looks like memory foam needed about an inch or more thick. Good job though,troubleshooting making yourself comfortable. ❤ Stay safe Anthony and stay warm. Safe travels.
Hello Anthony, Insulate Insulate Insulate and stay warm and toasty The topper goes on top but putting under to flatten it out is a good idea. Happy Camping and stay safe.😊
Hi Anthony, your looking good and happy. Great job on the insulation, take your time make small adjustments, have fun, no "rushin" you are american LOL!🤣🥳🙏
Not sure if u said, I assume the foam isn't toxic in a small space & are u going to cover the foam around the walls with some type of fabric so it dosen't crumble on u, especially when sleeping?
I have a comment and some questions. If you get moisture won't it get under the stuff your using for insulation and get wet and possibly mold ? If you put it under your bed is it strong enough to hold weight ? Why don't you but one of those nice comfortable pads you use on a camping cot ? As far as covering the bottom of the bed if it's not to wide use valances instead of curtains ? They are short. You should maybe get a camping cot. I would be afraid of mold honestly. It seems you would need some kind of sealer to prevent mold.
Id be in my rv during the winter and topper during the summer… but thats just my humble opinion ofcourse .
I love how you can buy what you want & do what you want to do for yourself. As well as how you want. Keep doing you Anthony.

Hi Anthony. Would it be expensive to get your camper professionally insulated.. just asking
You may as well just put a regular truck topper on used an air mattress and slept in it that way .. would have been cheaper 🤷🏽♀️

Your camera quality is awesome!
All those little foam pieces would make my OCD brain explode.
The blue foam should have expanded. Maybe takes time however, it will add insulation under your bed so should be nice and comfy.

Do not forget the floor. Cold air rises. I used insulation under rubber floor mats taped to seal seams.
Cold air sinks. But it's still a good idea to insulate the floor.
Warm air rises
Anthony put the carpet kit in the truck bed before he got the Moonlander

Try using flannelsheets on the bed. I'll be looking for the results. The cotton sheets are too thin.
You could have purchased 1 large panel and made fewer measurements and cuts, as well as, covered the seams.

You should have bought a four wheel camper project M
Hope you are not allergic to the foam board ! Be careful if foam gets damp you could get mold and get really sick . Keep watching and stay safe !!!
Hopefully the foam will expand fully.
Good to see you
That mattress topper you got is literally nothing. Idk who thought that that product was even sellable.
They expand. It's helpful not to be impulsive and read instructions, it's also fairly common knowledge.
Not sure if u said, I assume the foam isn't toxic in a small space & are u going to cover the foam around the walls with some type of fabric so it dosen't crumble on u, especially when sleeping?
I have a comment and some questions.
If you get moisture won't it get under the stuff your using for insulation and get wet and possibly mold ?

They are short.

I would be afraid of mold honestly.
It seems you would need some kind of sealer to prevent mold.
It has to inflate, relax Anthony. Read the instructions I'm sure it's takes a minute to plump up
Those mattresses supposed to be opened out for about 2 days before sleeping on it.
To go over your insulation to be more esthetically pleasing, what about peel and stick wallpapers? You can get a neutral color. Just a thought ❤
Hmmmm that’s a thought. Does it come in squares?
God bless you Anthony
The triangle section should be easy. Just cut a square and an cut it in half.
Can you use insulation on the floor that's under your bed?
