I remember you sold off a few of your builds, like your first 2 vans I think, any plans to sell this or make more just like it and sell that? I feel like this could be easily given to a laborer to build and you take in the profits from the sale.

I too am a veteran, Retired Marine. Your imagination is on 1000. I’m in the process of completely restoring/renovating my first camper and your videos give me inspiration.

Who thinks of this kinda greatness? DualEx... That's who! BEAST!

Usually I don't add comments but this is an incredible build. On one of your videos you actually remarked that you couldn't believe you did this. What is so inspiring is you don't start out with that mindset. You consistantly create the thought that anything is achievable, problem solve issues and then excel in the completion. A "do over" ( i.e. storage drawers ) is not a mistake for you it's a chance for continuous improvement! This is inspirational especially to people who feel easily defeated before they start. You've got to think about how you can teach others, especially challenged youth, how to develop this mindset. 2 questions: 1. You added holes to 1/ 3 of the upper platform. Was that for weight reduction or moisture prevention, and if it was for the latter will you add the holes to the other piece? 2. Will you build removable screens for your side windows? I suspect the Max air fan and the open windows will result in incredible airflow. However, most places are really buggy so you might enjoy a screened in experience even at that lower level. Ok, enough of my chatter! Just very impressed with your creativity, problem-solving focus and commitment. Outstanding, young man in every way!

@grey cat I agree with everything you said about Dualex, he is a true visionary, a creative and pragmatic soul who makes it all look so simple. On the Camper Extension there is a bug screen on the front zip up section. Not sure if he's done any screens for the lower level. He seems to have thought of everything and executed to an impeccable standard.

Love this. There is a KZreadr names MAV. He is looking for a camper truck. He likes customs. I wonder if you guys collaborated if it would be beneficial for both.

If our dear veterans never can get a permanent home without risk of being put out due to lack money from whatever program then these lightweight camper trucks are perfect for them and outdoorsmen alike. Expect to see you in a few years on Shark Tank; you future self made man.

@JonLa89 And how exactly would they afford this truck?? Any Vet that actually did their job for a good period of time gets a great pension. I'm having no problem living, but I didn't do military time for the free shit or the pat on the back like most of yall either

You’re a gifted builder/thinker bro. Your builds are everything.

Yo bro, Nuff Respect man! My wife hates that I got into off grid living, just can't get her on board. She doesn't realize how learn to live this way is priceless.

It’s insane the amount of ingenuity in this build. Functionality and attention to detail in every corner. I’d be super proud, myself. Keep it up! Hooah!

I just keep waiting for the mini RV build. I'm a travel nurse, and want to have something that is mine when I go to assignments, instead of hotels. I have been looking at mini trailers or cargo conversions. Waiting on everything until I see what you do. You're super talented, and outrageously creative. Be well!

Had no idea that you are a Veteran. Thank you for your service young man. You really have impressed me with your skill and vision. Always great to see someone with your inspiration. The camper is awesome indeed. Look forward to every video. Have a great week !

One of the absolute best truck set ups I've seen.

I really enjoyed watching this build, especially all of the new skills you challenged yourself to learn! 💚

Bro, you should turn this into a business. If you could somehow sell these, I would absolutely purchase one. I'm referring to both the platform and the truck shell. One of the best looking camper shells I've seen. I have a 03 Sonoma Crew Cab, so my bed is even shorter, so I appreciate the attention to space utilization. Wow wow wow.

I need a person like this in my life. (Now that I'm physically challenged and cannot do all this by myself.) I am grateful, at least, to be aware someone with such vision and determination exists. For now, that is enough.

That truck is great for British weather. As a woman I can drive that easily. I love the build! 👍great job.

You are a great creative person. I watch you consistently and appreciate your ingenuity. Stay Awesome 🛠

Absolutely love your creativity on your build. I've been racking my brain on doing something like this for the truck I bought a cpl months ago. I like to camp, but don't want to always tow the cargo trailer I built out. This fits the bill for those quick off the grid weekend get away trips I like. Thank you for sharing all this info! Love that you promote veteran support as well!

Thank you for serving Sir. You're a great teacher!

Amazzzzziiiiiiiiiing !!!👏👏👏👏👏👏 You're such a smart, intelligent innovative young man!! I am so inspired watching you work and I dream to have that kind of camper truck two years from now when I turn 60 and I look forward to enjoy a different kind of life!! I salute to you sir !!!👍

You are a very creative person. I appreciate your ingenuity 🛠 Stay Awesome!

Your builds are next level man, even the prior sink setup was such a fantastic design.

Retired Air Force/Desert Storm vet here.. that’s a bada** build.. just subscribed. Be safe in your journeys.

I watched the build video. Some great innovation and fabrication! As a welder of 30 years, I'm impressed.

I love the design the only recommendation from what I can see is once you open the clam shell at the bottom just above the diamond plate I would put a 3” piece of fabric that you can put over the diamond plate so rain water doesn’t run into the bottom box

@DualEx I don’t even know you but I feel so proud of you as you have gotten better and better with each project! EVERY project you’ve done so far is better than the one before. Wow!!!! Thank you for sharing.

You are Freakin GENIUS!!!!! I've watched hundreds of van build videos and thus far I have yet to see any that compares to your skillset! KEEP THRIVING my son/younger brother/ nephew/ friend!🙋🏾‍♀️😊✌🏾

IM PRAYING FOR UR LIMITED EDITION WITH A HUGE RV MANUFACTURER!!!! I 💘 THE BUILD!

You did a great job! I like the wood and the fact that it does not look like any of the other campers seen online.

You are a flat out genius. You've thought of everything and it looks good with the metal and wood combo. I've been watching you for a year now and I just love your style. Can't wait to see the camper.😊

Love your builds. Tip: consider putting an ugly red or yellow rubber "bumper" on the corners of your tailgate (diamond plate) to keep from poking out your eye in the dark.

That Diamond Plate with Burnt/Epoxied Wood Accents looks Fantastic!!!

The longer I watched this, the more impressed I became. Congratulations on such a great, innovative setup. Thanks for your service. You also seem like such a fantastic man.

Your builds are amazing. Such a talented young man. I'm seriously looking st this one as I have a pick up. Something like this would work well for me.

Impressive man with skills and getting it done attitude. We need more people with his common sense, mechanical aptitude and drive. Keep up the great work!

Wow! I do not have words for this. You killed this project and production. Watching you work makes me want to keep my day job. If you ever find yourself rolling out in to Wyoming in that truck or one of you other builds please look me up so I can see your work first hand and cook you an elk steak.

Love the 3 stage plane. Looks grate! And thank you for your service!

I am a mom, and you are not even my child and I am so proud of your skills, build and your positive attitude. Great job, I hope you continue in your journey and videos of your accomplishments

Thank you for serving are country and protecting our country. Chef

Brother you can split the floor in two parts and arrange to access the butane cooker from inside the covered area. The option of sliding out the stove would still remain. This would also give you access to the "permanent" storage area from inside. The split floor can either be hinged to open or just lifted and placed on the side.

Damn it looks so good! Amazing job man you have some serious talent

I've been following your content since your first van build content. I am blown away with how elegant you make these, while also maintaining affordability and simplicity. Thanks for sharing this build! I look forward to more content.

Salute from a fellow Veteran. Love your channel brother.

Wow saw one video from this, had to go back from the beginning and watch all of them from beginning to end. Had to FF during watching the video, just so I could see all the series before my battery would gives up... can’t believe how creative a person could be... love this.

impressive ... you never disappoint. Keep up the great work. I hope you'll get a bigger audience - you deserve it. :-)

Mane I’m so PROUD of you young brother keep up the good work! You are a great example of what young black man could be …..

The absolute coolest thing about this truck is the fact that you built this yourself! Awesome job and love the set up. Its perfect for camping, but you could definitely live full time in this truck, no problem. Love it!

This is so well thought out and executed! I love all the functionality in such a small space. This is beyond awesome! Great work!

Man I know I'm late to this video I just found it... But man this video is amazing you are amazing! My 55-year-old man on disability and this is my dream is to live in a truck or a van that I can modify into a living space... You're an inspiration bro I wish you were the best in life!! Thank you for sharing this video

As a veteran myself, thank you! The bag is awesome......I will be purchasing one. Semper Fi!!!!

wow such an incredible job bro! this is one the most amazing builds ive seen.

This is ingenious! I wonder if there is a way to make the roof transparent for stargazing.

This is a beautiful camper build. You are a true craftsman and thank you for your service. I’ve watched a few of your videos and everything you do turns out to be a masterpiece. Looking forward to the next build. ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Duuuuude I can't with this!!! I'm working on starting a business building things like this and I CANT get over your style. Like dude you and I gotta talk and throw ideas back and forth 😂

Thank you for your service. And all the other veterans thank you for your service. So we can be free and do wonderful things like this man is doing

Brilliant design and build!! I used your other brilliant drawer slide bed build to put one in my van. But this is also great and I will share with any of my truck camper friends. :) Well Done!! I love all the detail you put into your designs, builds and vids... ☺

This is awesome! One thing u might consider is using your drawers as an extension to the bottom bed, so that you have a full length bed. Then add a custom tent cover to the bed for waterproofing.

Wow this is Awesome!! I remember when he first started .. 10k subscribers… look at you now .. your a genius.. you should be a consultant for RV Companies.. your an amazing engineer!🙌🙌👌👌💕

Amazing piece of work. And always surprises me how veterans are treated in the US. In Canada us veterans don’t even have a 1/4 of the benefits as your service men and women. And I love projects like this and I have been thinking about making a canopy for my Ram 1500. Maybe have to do it but my truck is black so black diamond plate for me lol.

"Not every vet is as fortunate as me, being able to run a you tube channel and businesses" Bro, you and I both know 90% of vets are hella lazy ass people who wouldnt have ever accomplished shit if it wasnt for their short military time. You would have made something out of yourself either way...because you care about your future and you have heart!!

Absolutely amazing sir! Vet here as well! Thank you for your service.

You are an inspiration, you will give so many people the confidence to do their own build. Love ya!

I love the idea of "stage 1" stage 2 and stage 3... so building this could be accomplished one step at the time. Thanks!!

I didn't know you were a vet. Thank you for your service sir.

You are so talented! Love the layout you came up with 👏👏👏👏

They need to start a show on HGTV and have him do this for folks like when they remodel house. But build out travel vehicles for folks . Or even build cool Teardrop trailers campers.

Thank you for sharing this beautiful build. God Bless you.

Kick ass job! Something you might consider is adding a garelick stowable table pedestal mount on the lower deck so that if it is raining two people could sit inside and play cards. I am currently looking into building a roof top tent for an FJ Cruiser.

Army veteran- 13B.... Thanks for your service!!!

I have watched quite a few of your videos, but in this one…your passion and pride for your build is immensely apparent. Well done and keep doing what you love.

Would be cool if you could add an awning that comes out off the back so cover the kitchen area. Also maybe some removable screens for the lower windows to allow airflow in the lower portion.

Really nice build. Pop top was a good idea. Goes to show that you can get it done without an 8ft box. Aluminum brazing is under utilized for sure. Everyone wants to build with wood because it's accessible and just accept burning a tank of gas driving 20 minutes up the highway

Definitely, one of the best truck ,set ups I've seen, seen, so far thank , u for your, service, coming, from , a veteran

New sub here! You deserve millions of of subscribers! I’m here before you get to a million💕 you are very creative, handy and smart, helping people with survival skills🙂

When he said “right now I have it in chill mode” I sub’d lol

Your my hero. Seriously outstanding build so simple I could fit the wife and 2 kids in that build. I'm showing this to the wife so we can arrange a budget. Thank you for sharing. Thank you for your service.

Much respect man. Always glad to see another brother in arms succeed, keep up the good work man.

I’ve loved your truck camper build! Thank you for your service! 🇺🇸😁 I’m from West Virginia. We’re neighbors. 👍🏻😁

You’re HIM! Truly blessed skillman

Duplex, what an imagination in that head of yours! Love everything you've done so far and look forward to what you do with the camper!

You need to produce the product for the open market. Great camper! Thank you for your service to our country.

Well executed design sir. I commend you on this build!

Awesome… I used to be addicted to your videos and everything you and made I’d want to buy ha ha then I tried to hit you up because you were selling one of them but you never replied and I got mad at ya.. lol But finding out that you’re a veteran made me hooked again. Thank you so much for serving our country. I also appreciate you supporting the veterans and I want to get one of those bags you showed. I still wish you would sell me something. Everything you make I want to buy ha ha I wish I had a ton of money. But I don’t… Take care

You should be so proud of yourself. Your skills have improved and will continue to so. I like the fact that is it's interchangeable 💯

Wow, that is fantastic!! So are you. With your ambition and intelligence, you’ll be a star at anything you do!!!

I recently found your channel and you are incredibly talented and creative. Thank you for your service! I'm also a Military Vet.

Fantastic job, my jaw is on the floor… I bow to you 🙏🏿

My current goal. Get set up like this. Right now I do it in a uhaul van that I rent every week after losing the house in the split and housing being stupid insane in my area. I don’t spend much on mileage because my job and the gym are super close to where I sleep. Slowly getting accumulated to the life. I love it and will have it super comfy doing it one day

Holy cow!! I was given an old pop-up that I plan to strip down to the trailer and build a camper. I can see this as a great inspiration for my build. Thanks for making the plans available! Fantastic...

This is the most practical build I have seen thus far.

A great job. I like this . He is really artistic. Got some great ideas. This is the first truck I have seen like this. This is outstanding. Great video.
