Bugging out with kids in toe makes staying in place and defending a well known location, access points, defilades, etc a preferable option. If you're lucky enough to live outside cities and know your neighbours well, you can create layers of mutual defence better than any castle. The caveat being it only works where there is a strong sense of community.

The realest review of any rig I’ve seen. Everyone sugar coats their reviews and bull shits them. Not Mike Glover. 😂 A really honest review/walkthrough. Thank you sir.

Alot of your cons are echoed by alot of cab over camper owners.

I opted for a lightly used 2020 fourwheel camper hawk flat bed model 85L fridge, flat top sink, flat top stove, two 6v batteries, one fantastic fan, outdoor shower. I work 4 days on and 3 days off. Those 4 days I spend in my camper. My job offers gym, shower, bathroom.

Wish the owner who ordered mine opted for the lithium batteries, dual solar, indoor bath and bathroom.

My set up is a ram 2012 3500 mega cab ( last year before def was introduced), 7' ute flatbed (super lightweight), hawk flat bed model, truck is on 35s x17" rims (so the spare fits in factory location),

Benefits to the pop top through FWC: they have been around since the 70s built for a rugged life. The masters of cab over camper world, fixed alot of the issues, 8.5' clearance on 35s with top down

Cons: pop up, price.

Obviously bias opinion. But definitely worth a look

I bet you could get a hawk slide in Grandby model with all the bells and whistles and I think you would like that more than the scout.

You can contact highway products for a better bed storage system and locking storage boxes. They use same we use in trucking industry. Use a Lance 1062 camper package which includes a shower, toilet system and a much better system cheaper. Thats my two cents. "Happy wife happy life" plus kids

we use an electric blanket underneath us in colder seasons. I slept in my boxers when the temps got around 30F at night, in a Smittybilt RTT. it works great, because it warms up the bed instead of the air. the heat from the bed and us, warms up the air enough.

haha man, as a former Alaska resident (I was stationed at Ft. Wainwright) I laughed at your pronunciation of Kenai 

Love what you do! keep up the good work

Sgt-Maj, So glad your not sugarcoating the review.

[danvanderwall]

Keep these videos coming SGM. Hearing your quick and easy breakdowns of gear and situations is great

[GXadventure]

With the Yeti 1500x they make a charge from alternator connector so your 1500x will charge will the engine is running. Might help some.

Try adding shelves for more storage in the side compartments, and unscrewing the exhaust pipes and mounting them tighter to the bottom of the Kenai.

Definitely like the Vlog style. Think most people would like to see more such content. Thanks

[gabeinta]

Alot of Expensive stuff that doesn't work, thanks for a real review

[FordTransitVan]

GoPro vlog is excellent. Super quick and very organic.

[wanderson]

Depending on the trail, sometimes you shouldn't back-up and cutting wood with your chain saw is the safest path.

[tomgroenink]

I was just talking to my wife about building a basic shell on my flatbed like this. I'm never going to pull a 5th wheel out west from Michigan that's for sure! I definitely would add something like a home base radio like i played with when i was a kid. I taped fiberglass rods together and pushed the antenna up the water heater vent pipe so it stuck out above our roof! LOL . Keep up the good work Mike!

[DarkCavalry]

Brother I thought to myself "what are those wheels?!?!" You retained yourself on minute 3:30 Lol. Thank you for allowing me to join American Contingency. Keep leading us.

Hi Mike, thanks for sharing. A quick temporary fix for your gray water outlet that’s dripping on your boxes would be a flexible “flap” of rubber, that you could wedge (or even tape for now) between the camper and the Bowen setup. Think a more flexible mud flap. Then you can protect your expensive truck bed from the funk, yet still access the boxes because it would just flip up out of the way. Then you’re also not having to hunt for adapters, and/or having to worry about getting them caught on a branch and ripping them off of the camper while on a trail or something. I enjoy your content brother, RLTW!!

[danielb]

Nice walk around. We installed that Lagun table mount in our camper and love it. Game changer for moving kitchen prep space, eating... Audio & video was great, btw.

[ammonrivera]

Hey Mike, thanks so much for showing us the portal into the hole...what? I mean into the roof top tent. 🤣🤣 On a serious note, love your honesty with the pros and cons.

[jimmyjones]

Yes love this style it’s more of an interaction with people!!! Thanks for sharing
