I don't need one of these, but I need one of these....
Hell ye
Ni yanth thenga ie parayuney monuse
Your bank account doesn't need this
But your heart does need this
Everyone needs one 😂
Your build brings freedom and mobility to the next level. Fascinating, your highly technical and practical solutions to problems. I love how you have thought of each detail, and brought it to perfection.
Thank you so much Claudia!
How many times you think the check engine light came on?
Why ask that question, is there a problem with these cars I should know about?
such a cool video man. I have a cherokee trailhawk that I turned into my overlander, and I have the inside maxed out with stuff as well. It's awesome to see how people maximize the space they have when they are somewhat limited. Love it.
Thank you so much Sean! I appreciate you
Nice, practical, simple and functioning setup! Thanks for sharing with us!
Thank you!
Just recently bought a 955 turbo so I’m glad I stumbled upon your channel. Keep it up man!!!
Thank you so much!
Always a treat to see such a dialed rig in such detail. Love how efficiently you use every cubic inch. Stand out details are the Hot Wheels sheets, spare tire well access, and, of course, the Power Tank. Have you weighed the car in this configuration?
Thank you so much guys! It’s somewhere around 6,700 pounds fully loaded for living and wheeling!
Glad to see more videos from you man. Keep it coming!
More to come!
Kudos to you for getting all the usual problems worked out so well and all in a Porsche as well.happy camping.🇬🇧
Thank you so much Alan!
@@HarrisonSchoen Since this truck is based off a VW Touareg I’d nervous about reliability since I’ve owned an 08 Touareg with tons of issues. Still a nice setup though.
The opening of this video is my favorite of any video till date. Another great video Harry!
Thank you so much!
So well thought out. The platform design is brilliant.
Thank you so much! I appreciate you Tom!
currently using your content to build my 08 to similar standard, fabricated my tire rack an just got my solar panel delivered today. thank you so much for content.extremely helpful.continuing the inspiring journey from oven baked AZ. you da man!
Love to hear that! Thank you so much for following along!
Nice set-up and informative video. Subscribed. 😉
I have been living full-time in my BMW X5 for the past 3-years through all seasons, exploring wild regions, just loving adventure and the freedom it provides.
I love that!
I just totaled my X5 a week ago, hydrlocked, insurance is being a cunt too. Love to hear this I love the x5
@@wrongfullyaccusedreacts347 Sorry to hear that mate. Hopefully the insurance will eventually be sorted...they love to take your money, but are always reluctant to pay out.
I love my X5, it's a great vehicle.
Mr. Schoen, I'm a Fan from across the other Continente and your Lifestyle is really inspiring!
Congrats on your Achievements & Accomplishments!
I hope One Day Porsche Around The World appreciates & reciprocates your Passion & Work towards the brand.
Stay Safe & BE STRONG on your Dreams! 😎💪
Thank you very much Miguel!
Nice video. Good luck man. Also, thank you for your service
Thank you very much!
Glad I was recommended this video. Nice setup!
Thank you very much!
Very impressive set up. The table on top of the roof is epic!
Thank you! it's so awesome how well it fits in.
Started watching the intro of this vid and immediately subbed. This is an awesome build!
Thank you so much Dan!
Very similar to my 2012 Mazda CX-9 set up. Thank you for the video!
Very cool! Thank you!
Man, what a rig! I love what you’ve been doin. Keep it up 💪🏼 Also saw you on Mr JWW’s video 😁
Thank you so much! I hope you’re doing well!
@@HarrisonSchoen much appreciated, brother💪🏼🙂
Cool episode. I really like how you organized your Porsche.
Thank you so much Ales!
I came across you on TikTok I own a Mercedes ml350 v6 diesel and was thinking about doing the same thing as you, with this vlog I’m going for it. Thank you sir.
such an awesome built! 😍
Love your customs and creativeness. Just something New, not a generic.
Thank you!
Amazing explanation man, great video!
Thank you so much Big Man!
Hell yeah dude! We love the setup!
Thank you! Love you guys!
Very cool! Well thought out
Thank you!
Wow I love this, you have everything you need to live comfortably and you can fix your car on the road, I think the same way!
Thank you so much!
just came across your channel through this video, amazing production & content you have my sub :)
Thank you so much! I appreciate the compliment!
Your living my dream bro👊 Keep it up!!! Thankyou for the videos And Drive safely my friend.. New SUBSCRIBER BY THE WAY💪
Thank you!!
Not only are these rigs extremely capable but it’s something different which is nice to see. All vehicles have parts that are prone to breaking so for someone overloading their Cayenne/Touareg, what spare parts would you bring with you on an extended trip? Thx
Awesome build! Love the content too, keep it up! I recently got myself a Volvo XC90 and I think you’ve convinced me in thinking about converting it into a bit of a overland vehicle. 🤔
Hell yes! I love the idea!
Would give me anxiety if you have the turbo and supercharged engine
Pretty cool setup! And an really nice statement that you don´t want to own so much and you´re used to live compact! Really cool!
Thank you so much Daniel!
Best intro yet!!
Awesome build!! 👏🏽
Thank you!!
I'm loving this way of living out of a car. It seems more descrete and also less expensive (dunno of the porsche choice, but there's definetly cheaper options) than a fully rigged van (not even counting how much a 4x4 sprinter costs) i'd love to make a similar setup as yours in the near future. Keep it up! Keep posting
The Porsche just happened to be what I had at the time, but the justification for keeping it the same since has been; would you be watching this video if it was a tacoma, or van or jeep or something?
Also, you definitely can do this! it takes some adjustment but it's so worthwhile.
@@HarrisonSchoen good point
I would cause i'm tapping into every car camping setup youtube gives me, but to your point it probably would be less likely to have been in my recommendend (oh and thanks for the encouragement)
@@gerolori Absolutely! Make the jump when you can if it makes sense. life's short!
So freaking dope! 🔥
Big respect for leaving the civilised world behind. I don’t know if you have them fastened down or not but the big silver boxes at the back. I can see one of those smashing the rear window if it gets too bumpy, wouldn’t want you with a broken window
Thank you! the larger metal box is very sandwiched between the drawers and the hatch so it does not move offroad, but the smaller one I typically move to a different spot so it's not doing something crazy in the back!
Great job really well laid out 👍👍👍
Thank you kindly
Cool rig love it lots of hidden gems..do the tyres not catch on the wheel arches..great channel🦾🔥🔥🔥
Fortunately there's enough room in there!
OUTSTANDING!
my Transmission service came up this summer and the shop noticed a leak from the pump and $3k later... Now I'm replacing the front suspension. Love the Cayenne Turbo, but if it could slow down on the maintenance...
Not having air suspension helps slow the maintenance costs 😅
@@HarrisonSchoen so far I only need the pump, don’t jinx me! 🤣🤣🤣
Great content here my brother. I’ve been tempting this life style for a long time but I’d def get a dog for this journey
I’d love one, but it’s a big risk if the dog doesn’t work out with my lifestyle!
Dude that's such a sweet unique set up nice man
Thank you Brett!
Hot wheels bed and pillow case...hella awesome! Boys will be Boys
Sick build, sometimes the most impressive solutions are the simplest. Definitely going to borrow some of these ideas for my build.
Thank you so much!
@Harrison Schoen your choice of car shows how much of a risk taker you are in life! Well done and wish you a lot of success in your endeavors.
Nice build mate
Wow that’s a real Nice Porsche
Love this for you brother! Navy Vet as well. Was attached to CAG 5 forward deployed out if Japan. Love the story and the ride! Thanks for sharing and serving!
Great intro 👏
I loved the demonstration of different styles of getting into the bed! These are the things no one shows you :)
P.S.: Very nice sheets.
Thank you very much Matus! I appreciate you.
trop intelligent! bravo Monsieur continuez!!
Great job…impressive!
Thank you very much!
Great job i love it , we travel with a airstream motorhome in Europe and we will continue with a cayenne also for moroco . You give me the idea !, thanks for all
Thank you!
Great video
Thanks!
I like to try the same with the new Porsche Dakar, with a tent on top!
I’m sure it would be incredible!
The second hand 3.2 V6 in Thailand is about 30-37,000 usd but I still want one because of your channel. Great content, keep it going!
Thank you very much!
yesss 👏👏👏 !! I ´m french I have a cayenne 958 tdi and I want to do the same like you ! very very good life I think the futur is in the mobility so .. congratulations for me you have all understooden !! 👌💪🙏
Thank you so much! you can do it!
nice! thanks for sharing! who makes that LED light strip that you put on the trunk! that seems super handy for any occasion!
It's made by the company Teralume industries from Australia! It's the 40" I believe!
Hi harrison! Im a 955 S owner, and have installed eurowise 3" air susp lift and sf drop, I would like to make a similar camper build but was curious if youve found any way to squeeze extra fuel efficiency out of the 957, I know its a porsche and all but for someone living out of a car it is something to consider.
Thanks :)
Just picked up an '08 Turbo..... Let the games begin.
It's extremely rare to see former US military personnel running non-USA 4x4s. . . Usually, it's a Jeep or Ford or RAM on 37s. . . A Toyota occasionally, but a Cayenne?!
I like things that drive well 😉😂
Big fan of things like the TRX but can’t afford for now.

Big fan of things like the TRX but can’t afford for now.
@@HarrisonSchoen Of course! I am a total fan of G Wagon and Landcruiser overlanders! Cayenne is way unique!
Cayenne: an almost bulletproof 6-speed Tiptronic transmission, 2-speed transfer case, center and rear locking diffs, air suspension (11+ inch of lift), way overbuilt and the S came with a dry-sump lubrication system… and still excellent on the road. Top pick imo , congrats!
For the dirty ladder -- iKamper has this little bag for just the bottom feet of the ladder, which is usually the part that gets dirty. It it is much easier to slip it on even one-handed. I don't know if they sell it separately (and whether it would fit). I just thought maybe it would suit you better.
That sounds much better actually! Haha
Are the Racelines utilizing a wheel adapter? They look like direct bolt but I checked their website and did not see any 5x130's
The racelines are 5x130! Reach out to Rhett@racelinewheels.com and they can custom drill some faces for you!
Nice Video! Very interesting and unconventional
Thank you!
Thanks nice to watch
Thank you too
great setup! cool and informative video, like it very much and subscribed. just wonder total weight of cayenne on road after full loaded and what is the size of wheel and tier to suppor the full load offlander?
Fully loaded is 6,500lbs! 35x12.5 tires!
great video, I'm curious on how reliable is the Porsche since you've put so much miles on it in the past year and half. any mechanical issues ?
yes, a few. I'm dealing with a timing chain issue and bore scoring currently!
@Harrison Schoen I'm in the same spot with an 09 turbo, what is your plan?
Can you detail exactly what Frontrunner parts you used to get that size roof rack?
hi, your amazon link doesn't have any items, do you have a list of the items in the video?
I was going to replace my Defender 110 with a V8 Diesel Porsche but just couldnt work out how 2 of us could sleep in one. Ended up with a Discovery 4 instead. Love your setup though and its very close to what we use. At 58 though i can tell you my knees hate getting in and out through the side door. Pretty funny and lots of bad language needed. Getting up for a pee in the middle of the night is a pain.
Hahaha, I love hearing that! I hope I’m still adventuring into my 50’s.
@@HarrisonSchoen You will for sure. Man we are about to ride a DR650 2 up through Colombia for 5 weeks so age is not important .Happy travels.Tim
@@timsbike4887 I wish you the best! I hope your adventure offers excitement and you make it to the destination in one piece!
What is that unit next to the fan I see with two pressure gauges on it from the rear of the car. Great unit you have. 🇦🇺
How many times did it break?
where does your fridge plug into to? your car battery or your battery under the bed?
Battery under the bed!
How did you lift it? How much invested in it's current form?
I lived in a 08 Prius for 2 years…good stuff
Love that! Nikki delventhal has also done the same!
Hi Harrison, I've been enjoying your videos with my recent search of Cayennes. I'm trying to find more information on how a lifted Cayenne does with towing. Is this still a possibility? Does lifting one affect it's towing capabilities? Looking to tow a car with one.
Hi there Jason, lifting a cayenne and towing I believe wouldn’t be an issue and I know that people still do it. My concern would be the hearing while towing if going up to larger tires!
Love your rig man. 2005 S here on air. About to do a Eurowise 3” air lift. I want to utilize my 20” wheels (for now). I want the same beefy look that you have. What tire size would you suggest? Also, what is your in-dash radio setup? My radio went out in my ‘06 Turbo and I’m looking for recommendations. Thanks brother. (Air Force 10 years)
Hey! If non turbo I’d recommend a 33” tire or so, and probably a 31-32 if turbo because intercoolers.
In dash I can’t really recommend anything but Porsche released a new headunit for 955/957
I appreciate the reply. I’m in love with your videos. I’m not trying to dump a shit ton of money into it but looks like that’s not the case 😂. My ‘06TT will be jealous.
I have a set of 18” TSW/Victor Equips from my 944T that I tested fitted (looked sick) but I just found out they can’t take the load rating.
What’s your roof rack set up?
Thanks.
Do you have a link for the wireless light switch setup you use? Thanks!
Yes! here's a link to it!
amzn.to/3HxLaxj
Would love to know what LED that is on your tailgate. I’ve got a similar rig; light in the rear like that would be fantastic! 🤙🏼
here's a link to the light! I'm very happy with it and it's not so expensive!
teralumeindustries.com/collections/strip-x-lights/products/90cm-dual-color-x-strip-light
@@HarrisonSchoen Hell ya dude! Thanks for that info! Happy wheelin 🤙🏼
Harrison, does the exhaust sound have a drone noise inside the car? I have a loud exhaust on my 911, and at certain RPM it is just about unbearable. Looking at doing a Cayenne build and I LOVE the sound yours makes!
The exhaust is louder and is audible within the cabin but I'm able to stand the noise from it personally
@@HarrisonSchoen update: bought a cayenne S, cut off the muffler to make way for the Eurowise rear off-road bumper, and it sounds amazing! Just drove from south Mississippi to Atlanta and wasn’t bothered by any droning at all. Thanks!
@@motorsandmeats88 Glad to hear you've done it! It's hard to really describe when people ask "is it loud?" haha
Loved it. What video camera do you use to shoot?
Sony A7R4!
It is necessary to adapt to this world, nothing is unfortunate, everything is opportunities to strive no matter the situations!
Absolutely!
What about the compartment under the passenger front seat, there’s some storage there too
I don't have one of those in mine!
Do you like having the rooftop tent or do you wish you would've gone a different setup? A lot of people I heard don't like the rooftop tents, and they are pretty darn expensive and not mention heavy, so they dont work on a lot vehicles..
This one in particular I don't like for my setup, but had a contract with the tent company. I'm fine sleeping in the car, so it isn't necessary also.
@@HarrisonSchoen Hey man, thanks for the reply. I really appreciate your honesty in that, I feel that a lot of "roof tents" have just had an extensive marketing campaign, and a lot of people actually don't like using them.. Hence my question and I'm glad you could answer it straight on, rock on dude
@@henrik1743 Absolutely! if I weren't given the tent for free, I wouldn't have owned it! the roof is better used for storage and such
I’m 6’6 and thinking how should I start MiniVanlife or SUV life. But I’m looking more into a 2000 Honda CRV if it’s a SUV that I choose.. Or a 2004 Peugeot 807, 1994 Toyota Estima, 2002 Nissan Serena has higher ceilings
I'm not familiar with most of those models!
@@HarrisonSchoen Because it's different names but same model designs🤣
EPIC!
I was thinking of getting one just like this, you know.
I hope you enjoy it if you do!
hey buddy, nice ride ! Do you have a link for this spare tire table setup please ?
Yes!

@@HarrisonSchoen thanks !
Beautiful! Come to Europe with this! :)
If only it wouldn't cost a small fortune!
Still a great car!
Thank you!
I would love to convert my 2013 Cayenne Diesel into an off-road vehicle!
Were you traveling thru Vancouver bc about a month ago? I might have seen your vehicle unless someone else had a build like yours. Sick build though!
I was through Vancouver in July, but not a month ago!
@@HarrisonSchoen hmmm I might have mistaken my time... It might have been you. Nevertheless cool build and stay safe
@@zumezoom9593 Thank you so much!
What jacket is that you have on please? is it warm?
Unfortunately I received it from a friend and there's no brand or label on it! I've tried searching before with no luck.
That's a life 👌🏻
Not sure you need coolant , you can use water(stream ,river, melt snow ) instead of coolant in case of emergency … no need coolant save room for something else
I’d have to use distilled water, so carrying that would also take up some room!
957 s compatible with 17inch wheel?
Only with certain 17s. The base model cayenne has smaller brake calipers in the front that’ll easily clear 17s
Did you remove rear seats?
How much do you think your vehicle weighs fully loaded, i.e., above the regular car gross weight?
When fully loaded for a trip, the car weighs about 6,700lbs!
@@HarrisonSchoen even more impressive, then!
@@claudiahansen4938 Thank you!
I noticed in your earlier videos you had a road shower mounted to your rack, did you do away with that because of the Planet Fitness shower option or was there something else about the road shower you did not like? Trying to decide if its worth the investment for me.
I added a roof tent and no longer had a spot for the shower, so I sold it! It was great and I recommend if you spend your time in climates like San Diego California.
