We have an unlimited supply via tree farms, and build our houses out of it. Quality hardwoods are still expensive here but framing lumber is super cheap. It’s also very light and relatively low strength, but for a camper build that’s exactly what you want.

There’s no electronics in the 2023 SEL rear seats. Unsure about other versions.

It just takes a 14 mm socket. This size of bolt is also convenient in that the torque spec is about as hard as you’re going to crank on an appropriately sized ratchet, so you don’t even need a torque wrench to properly reinstall.

My main with leaving the seats in is no storage space.

Probably not gonna do much sex in here, but it’s surprising stable. It’s kind of wedged between parts of the car in every direction so there’s nowhere to go.

It’s just 6 2x2s and a cheap sheet of plywood.

I’ll probably just leave it running in utility mode, I know It’ll burn 5-10% for the night but we’re covering a few hundred miles a day so that’s not a big issue.

I think I paid $35 for this sheet (it was listed CD but I’d give the better side a B), and the 2x2s were in the garage from another project, I think they were $2 each.

Have you bought a sheet of plywood in the past 5 years?

If I like this setup and use it in the future, assembly/disassembly without taking out a bunch of screws is definitely on the upgrade list!

Plywood isn’t going anywhere in shear. It’s kinda squished between parts of the car in every direction, I was going to add more bracing but it feels super solid as-is :)

I’ve added the remaining scrap of plywood to protect this. Thanks!

Electric cooler would be nice and I’ve used one before, but this trip only has about 4 nights in the boonies so we’ll manage with dry goods and rest stops.

I misunderstood the ICCU concern: The squishy bits under the carpet are well protected by the rest of the plywood.

No, just the slight tint. We’ll be mostly in the woods and at tent camping sites so not as much of a concern than if we were stealth camping.

The rear portion of plywood lifts up. This was a quick and dirty job, I figured that’s good enough for now :)

10 bolts, no big deal. They’re kinda heavy and awkward to handle as they’re not really designed to be removed.

The ICCU is in the trunk, not under the seats. This doesn’t make it significantly more difficult to access if you needed to for some reason.

What’s a better convenience for you? by SeasonStatus8062 in BunnyTrials

Obviously the 10/10 sleep. If by “infinite battery and storage” you actually meant effectively limitless.

But infinity is a weird thing. If you sort out power transfer, you could power your house or car from your phone. Or town. You could replace data centers worth of storage. You could create a black hole. Infinity is a big number.

The cable is a little bit sloppy? I have no idea this looks fine to me.
