Just the essentials - hot shower and cold beer

Recently "finished" the first rev of my build. I bought a used 2014 PH that was pretty sparsely built with a bed platform and nothing else. After gutting it and reviving my plans many times, I finally got it to our first weekend of mountain biking and beer drinking.
The hot shower was a game changer! I used a Camplux mounted to the rear door. Water pressure via the Shurflow 3.5 GPM pump was more than enough. Also added a quick connect hose for bike cleaning. To round out the practical, I added an Alpicool fridge to keep the beer cold and, even less practical, a tap that mounts to the side of my cheap sink basin. We brought a 2.5 gallon keg of home brewed IPA and enjoyed every last drop.

Not sure why the pics don't load, but I'll fix that tomorrow.

If I read your post correctly, seems to me you've lined up your priorities effectively!

Very nice, if you ever need a riding buddy in Palm Desert, CA hit me up. How did you mount the awning?

Happy Trails

Sweeeet! I strongly assume the beer was even better than the shower :-)

That may happen. I pass nearby there frequently and didn't think to look for trails.
The awning was on the van when I bought it. I assume just stock Fiamma mounting kit.

That's a tough one! It was pretty cool and wet, so the hot shower may have come out just a little bit ahead. The beer, however, had the advantage of lasting longer
