This DIY SUV bed has changed our lives. Finally, we can sleep comfortably in our car at trailheads, and wake up refreshed and ready to start our hike before the rest of the crowds hit the trails.
These DIY car camper conversion instructions are for you if you:
Have zero knowledge of building anything
Have zero tools and zero interest in buying tools to do this
Have zero time or patience build a bed. Seriously, who wants to spend hours drawing/mapping out a bed, sawing, cutting, glueing, etc? We just want to be out hiking! This will take you 1 hour or less so you can stop planning and start getting out on those trails!
This DIY SUV bed is probably NOT for you if you:
Are an expert builder
Took wood shop in high school
Have tons of tools or resources to buy tools and want to use said tools to build intricate bed
Want fancy bells and whistles like cubbies and wine storage and hinges and... we're getting exhausted just thinking about that. Moving on.
Plus, don't miss our easy, cheap DIY mosquito netting! It's awesome to be able to breathe fresh air at night, and not wake up with millions of bug bites. Warning: mosquito netting is not bear repellant.
It's easy, it's cheap, and yeah, it's totally ghetto, but gosh darn this SUV bed is awesome!

We’re Adam and Elise, a couple who believes that adventure is the best therapy. We’ve climbed Africa’s Mt. Kilimanjaro in galeforce winds, hiked Iceland’s famed Laugavegur trail in a sleetstorm, and run through Death Valley in 130 degree heat. Through it all we’ve laughed, cried, bled, bickered, and grown ever closer as a couple. Live Hard x Love Hard will inspire you to get into the wild and outside your comfort zone.
