Magellan and Greyhound | Our Truck Bed Drawers Build (Easy, Simple & Removable!) @MagellanandGreyhound | Uploaded February 2021 | Updated October 2024, 1 hour ago.
This is the build for our truck bed drawers platform that we hope is easy and simple for you to make and is removable! Due to numerous requests from our popular truck tour video (linked below), we decided to make this video on how we built this awesome sleeping platform. Unfortunately, we could not build another platform just for this video, but we believe you will be able to either build it yourself or at least get some ideas for your own. When we built this 4 or 5 years ago, there weren't as many videos we could watch on how to make this, but that doesn't change the fact that people have been doing this for decades and have their own unique spins and tastes on what they want.
For those of you who didn't see our truck tour video, if you have ever thought about sleeping in your truck bed and wondered how to make it more enjoyable, go check out our DIY custom built sleep platform and homemade storage drawers in our ARE tall truck camper shell so you can achieve the ultimate in truck cap camping. Whether you prefer more comfort than a tent in a campground, or simply want an emergency go-to for stealth camping somewhere, our setup is simple and effective and accommodates two people.
We hope you enjoy this video and hope you like Rambo - our truck "hotel." He has gone pretty much everywhere with us in the United States and is responsible for us being able to experience things we simply couldn't or couldn't as easily. If you like this video, please give it a thumbs up and subscribe to our channel to check out our epic road trip adventures.
