- This is my new truck cap camper that I built in the back of my Ford F-150. Unlike my last build which was more or less just for truck cap camping. This build was made to be multi-purpose and take as little time to set up as possible! Subscribe to see it in action this summer!

I had a decked system for years before I did my camper build. I fabricated a custom track to secure a Honda 7000 generator that allowed me to slide it out over the tailgate. We would use it to boondock camp when I used to pull an airstream. I even mounted a place to hook one end of a hammock onto the decked face. It held up great over many years of use. Great content!
I built a similar version that works well. F250 SuperDuty with same bed demensions. Decked base and Leer cap. Storage for all things turn key to camp and go +. Air mattress ready, portable power ready and lighting in the interior. Great setup for many situations. Holds an array of things that don't get in the way.
What did you use as a portable power source? That’s my next step for the build
Can’t wait to see you test it out. Love the new build.
Coming soon! I've got a trip planed in the next few days
Perfect setup I have the same setup and can’t wait til it’s installed
That is awesome Jesse!!
Good luck with it.
Thanks Ron! I've been very happy with it!
awesome rig, dude!
Beautiful
All ready for opening weekend!
Can't wait!
From a Chevy to a Ford !!
Looking good Jesse 👍 🇺🇲🗽🇺🇲
Good Luck too all on the water very soon!! 🎏 fly Rod in hand!!
The Vermonter BS
I'm definitely not very brand loyal when it comes to trucks. Especially in this market! Cant wait to get out on the water and put it to use! Good luck this season Lambert. This cap came from Stowe Vermont so maybe I'll start calling it the vermonter 😂
Catamount north! Hope they treated you right down there. I recently purchased a truck cap from them for my ‘19 Silverado! Can’t wait to see it in use!!
I actually got it off a Christmas tree farm in stowe vermont still smells like a forest in there 😂
You’re my favorite TH-camr. Keep up the great vids
Subbed because y’all are truck ppl in my home state! Sagadahoc County here!
Man, I wish I had the idea to do this when I was traveling and hitting 40-50 rodeos a year. Injuries and age have cut me down to probably half of that, but seriously thinking about building one in my 2012 F150 regardless. I would try and find a way to make everything easily removable to be able to use the bed, if possible. Great stuff man 👍
Its been great having mine! Makes for a cheep set up when guiding and traveling. I've never taken mine out yet. Never had the need for the bed that much just used a trailer when I wanted it instead.
Nice setup! I built a custom setup very similar in the back of my truck it took me more then a day though lol
I did the same last time and it took about a week of my time. Thats why I went with the partial prefab this time. So far ive been happy with that decision
I am so late, I saved this to watch later ten minutes after it was published.....oops....I’ve been waiting for this 👍🏼👊🏼🦖🍺
no worries! What do you think of the new set up so far?
@@MainelyOutDoors I love it, I have seen that system before and was like ehh, but since you’re modifying it, I’m sure I will like yours. 👍🏼👊🏼🦖🍺
Nice and functional build. Love the lower pull out drawers. One concern I have is that bed liner spray. For years it will emit toxic and carcinogenic fumes. You really shouldn't be breathing that stuff and I hope it doesn't give you health issues.
Thanks! Interesting I’ll have to look into that
Hey man, could you share the models of caps/ toppers you used? I have the same truck and I’m trying to buy a cap that fits well.
Thanks!
Hi where did you get the shell or did your truck come with it?

60" Heavy Rails: amzn.to/3NsuDuO
Sterling gray gang!
FYI to make those rails are more rigid mounted sideways. Be more work but you probably could use 2x4s with those rails to make something a bit stiffer. Networking equipment slide on similar rails, and you can have them fully extended holding 100lbs stiff.
Thought about it but the bottom drawer is used to support it
Yeah nothing new about build drawers for the bed of a truck but the crazy price for decked draws they are out of their minds
Okay,, so right off the bat, $1000's of dollars, thanks!!
Saw these decked buildouts and was hoping to find someone to use it like I want to. Feel it’s simple enough and my truck is my daily driver too. Been wondering how much clearance do you get between the top of the decked surface to the roof of your cap?
I'm not sure off the top of my head but it would be hard to sit up. I'll measure it in my next over view video of the build
Where’d you get the slides? I’ve got a Decked system in my f150 as well and I like the slide idea versus how I have mine currently!
I linked it in the description so far I've had no problems with them and the drawer support for it works great!!
@@MainelyOutDoors perfect! Thanks!
At least Merrin let you put her in the thumbnail so we all know she’s there and well with you😁👍🏼👊🏼🦖🍺
Shes just camera shy
@@MainelyOutDoors it’s all good
Can give us the parts that used, need where I can get the rails
Sorry about the glass. That sucks. Still think I like the last build better because of the ingenuity and hard work it took. Still going to be pretty sweet though.
Happens but nothing I could have done at that point. Thats fair I just wanted to try something different this time. I didn't have all the time i did for the last build. That was a covid project 😂
Great idea with the slid out and if you did it on both sides would make it even better. I've seen those decked or however you spell it and for the price you can build a better one and I think you just did that they should be selling them with the option of a top slide for coolers, propane tanks ext stuff that just don't for in there box. I'd be contacting them before they steal that idea and make million's of your handy man skills. Love it. Make more videos tho you have been slacking in that department lol
How did you break the glass?
Wish I still had the camera on but I just shut it off. I went to close it and something wedged between the glass that cap causing it to explode
@@MainelyOutDoors Ah, that makes since. I was a bit confused! thanks for the response.
Nice, but not being able to sit up inside would be a deal breaker for me. Also do you really need all that under platform storage to slide out? IMO, $1600 for the deck/sliders seems like a lot. Kinda tight for two people having to crawl in and out? Personally, If for solo, I would opt for a custom 30" wide bed platform over a couple of platic storage bins that just slide over bare metal and leave the back corner as a popup cubby storage. I like the idea of a sliding table on the other side, but I would just make it higher for ergonomics while seated on one half so that my feet and knees fit under when inside - the wheels of the fridge can be leverage for a custom slider if you build around it at same level. Check out Mav's build for the idea. Anyways I think once you start building out a truck camper like this I think you have to start thinking about just going with a van, which I did.
I think everyone's needs are different. For me, a Van wouldn’t allow me to access the logging roads we have here in Maine so
or pull a trailer so that wasn't an option. As for the siting up for many, that's definitely a deal-breaker. However, In my last build, I found that I never hung out in the back. If I wanted to sit I would enjoy being outside or sitting in the cab. The only time I went in the back was to sleep so for me this setup works. This build is more of a tool for camping in the outdoors and a workaround for a tent I suppose.
@@MainelyOutDoors Yeah I totally get it. I personally would never cook or eat inside if the weather is cooperating. Your build gives me some ideas. I have the same fridge with the wheels and am thinking now how about how to leverage those wheels for a custom slide out. Thanks!
@@12vLife Awesome good luck with the build!
Totally agree that the Decked system is totally over priced for what you get. But they have to market cornered unfortunately.
Dude never explained why the glass shattered.
the draw sliders arnt designed to be used that way they will bend.
Dudes puttin in work to organize the bed of his truck, while his garage looks like a tornado came through...
😂 me and my dad are a bit different when it comes to organization
Is OSB cheap again?!😂😂 I know subjective
haha 😂 not really
Misleading title. You really didn't build anything - you installed the DECKED system.
Jesse, you left out a really important component of this project in that you didn't introduce the truly lovely young woman who modeled the bunk for you at the end of the segment! Since she's wearing a wedding ring, could this be Mrs. Rochester? Laughingly, Chris (Appleton, Maine)
Don’t be a simp.
Why go cheap and use pressboard / OSB? Your time is more valuable than the materials, using the Decked system is proof of this. OSB is good in shear and static applications, not in an off-road vehicle.
I want an aluminum slide at one point but couldn’t find anything to settle on at the time. its definitely going to be upgraded at one point. Still looking for a good solution. Definitely open to suggestions if anyone has one.
@@MainelyOutDoors you could have a piece of aluminum cut and bent to your specified dimensions. A piece of Dimond plate with like 2" upturned sides would be great. Then just mount it to those existing glides. Nice build.
Garbage and why not build your own custom design.
Still thank you for the video and sorry about your unfortunate injuries
It’s not that good to be bribed for a thumbs up
What?
How the hell is that a camper? It’s a truck cap and some storage containers.... sorry but not even 1% of creativity.
