"Those panels are going to FLY off!" (according to the internet) - 3M VHB Tape
(NOT a sponsored post) According to the internet, they say the camper panels are going to completely fly off on the freeway. Therefore, I wanted to do a test on how much force is required to separate the panels once the tape has cured.
Conclusion: I don't think the wind can compete with a pry-bar.

Finally getting some skin on those bones!! It's been a long-time coming just to get to this phase of the build and is definitely a rejuvenating milestone. Once it gets seam sealed and finished sanding, it's off to paint!

Custom Aluminum Flatbed Toyota Tacoma Camper
Milestone achieved: the expedition camper finally has a lid! There was some serious thought that went into the design of this lid. Rather than being a generic square design, we went for more angles and bends that no only add strength, but give it a unique look unlike anything else out there. There's space for attaching tent material, as well space to have the struts be internal when the lid is closed. Lastly, this thing will be sealed incredibly well when closed - another awesome design element.
It feels good to be at this milestone because now we have exact measurements and can get the tent portion made. With the lid done and the doors started, it's well on its way to being structurally complete and we can move onto skinning it and giving that skeleton some form.
One step closer!

Cheers to my longest episode yet! There's a TON that was discussed - maybe too thoroughly - but I genuinely want you guys to see all the beautiful hidden details and the extensive thought process that has happened with creating this camper. It's by no means a generic camper. This is truly custom through and through.
As always, from the bottom of my heart, thank you for watching and for following along.

Toyota Tacoma Custom Flatbed Camper Build - Part Two | Badass Brunette
Probably the very last time this Tacoma ever has a truck bed ever again! Things are definitely getting more serious and there's no going back now. From this point on it's 100% unknown territory. There is no precedent for what we are about to undertake and nothing quite like it exists. At least, nothing on a rear long-travel, double cab, 2nd gen Tacoma.
I hope you enjoyed this episode.
And as always, thank you so much for watching!
