Category: Dodgy II: The Truckening

Dodgy II is a 2015 dual cab, long bed 3500 Dodge Ram Truck with 4-wheel drive. That means we can off road during the day and have plenty for room stretch out at night. It also means that parallel parking is a nightmare that we will never wake up from.

Currently, we live in the bed of the truck, with a A.R.E wedge truck bed shell for cover and a home-made bed with storage underneath. What we don’t have: running water, a heater, a cooler, or a toilet. Guess which of these we miss the most?
