  • How I make a luxury mobile camper for under $400. I used left over cabinet materials and lumber laying around my work shop. I decided to build this conversion to take a long road trip in. I spent a month in it and travel from Atlanta to the Grand Canyon with stops in Arkansas, Colorado and Utah.
    It was a success and didn’t have a issues with the build

    It seems like you got all your bases, covered & put a lot of thought process into your design, Pretty cool & ingenious!

    Very nice build. I love the low-tech aspect of the design. People spend tons of money on the latest gadgets, but keeping it simple like this pays off down the road when it comes to maintenance or replacement. I think simplicity is the way to go. Thanks for sharing your great ideas!

    Wow, nice setup! I especially like the floor tray panel idea to access the spare tire storage area. I have two Es, currently building out one for a camper. Greatest car ever! Thanks for sharing your build 😊

    This is a very nice build and appreciate your taking time to share. I am looking for an element and have avoided the SC because I tend to think I want AWD and probably manual but probably 99% of what I want to do is covered by your SC and set-up. Thank you !

    • @seasonedshredders
      @seasonedshredders  ปีที่แล้ว

      thanks so much, when I got the SC I never knew I would camping out of it. there are time I wished I. had the AWD, but it worked out. I just avoid section off roads. Next week I'll be leaving ATL GA. and heading out west. stay tune for new videos.

    Hello there!!🌄
    Nice build....👍
    I was wondering if, by any chance, you would be interested in helping another fellow element owner with rebuilding her shelf & bed along with the floor board cubby???
    My shelf is ratchet strapped at the moment with everything falling out on hard turns...
    I'm going full time pretty soon & what I have is not working out well for long term
    Lol
    I could come to you & would COMPENSATE for your time & skills, of course!!🙂💯
