Courtney learns about an OLD word that's been around a long, long time. Plenum - basically an air distribution box, similar to a manifold. In our Network Control Centers, we used an elevated floor as both a cableway and air-conditioning plenum to cool equipment racks. 24" square floor panels provided access to cable runs and opened a cool air duct under our equipment racks. Mods to our floor layout was always a work in progress as new equipment came and old equipment retired. It was nice that we never had to deal with air ducting.

So I'm wondering why not insulate the Army truck and the Vehicles you plan on driving a lot. I've done it with my truck and other vehicles for people. It's made driving them so much better. it helps with noise, keeping the heat better in the winter, and also keeps the cold in during the Summer. so you don't have to contently use the Air conditioning
@Bruce-ub8dv

+1 Agree. A million years ago when I drove Army trucks we use to insulate the floorboards and roofs to keep them warm or cool. It kinda worked back then on the old soft tops. But hey you have a gunner hatch, get a pintle mount and put a water cannon up there or something. :)

Next upgrade you may want to consider, is to measure the seats you each have and take a few photos [with and without the cushions] then go see a good automotive upholsterer and get two custom made well padded seats for your 1078. I'm retired army and when the army first purchased the HUMMVE, I did this and had a custom made seat cover that I could move from one vehicle to another [as an instructor we switched vehicles constantly] and I rode in comfort and all the other instructors were blown away at how comfortable it was and what a HUGE difference it made in the ride of the vehicle. Good luck and keep the videos coming.

I would suggest you think that “scoop” through, if the hot air is coming out of the top the scoop will cause the unit to draw in the hot exhaust air. Also, a screen would be a good idea. I would also look at installing an inverter to charge the battery on longer trips. I love those trucks.

I would like an LMTV but I would also like my 101 running. I have had a call made to the police on my dog in my 110 in Paso Robles during the Summer. Somebody really was not paying attention several windows were open and her water boy was sitting in plane sight. I spent two summers in Chico in the mid 80’s. I preferred driving my Series III 88. It sits in its own shade as it has a tropical roof. The day it was 121 I did think it was a bit warm. Three weeks at 105 - 110 changes one perspective.

That CTIS is a really great system to have- always make sure it's maintained! Excellent vid! You could also turn the Army truck into a new camper vehicle once you're done setting up the property! Maybe. Having a dump truck is always a good tool to have! That portable A/C unit is cool (no pun intended)! You could probably run a power line from the truck to the unit so you're not using the battery all the time while driving!

Their are different meanings of the word "Plenum." One of them is about HVAC. Ducting in controlled space for human comfort, hot or cold. Riley was spot on! Lol. Also install an Inverter, not a converter near battery box. Interverters change voltage from 12V DC to 120V AC. Converters work in the other direction to use 12v truckstop items in the house! Make sure the truck is running during it's use and shut off when engine is not running! Otherwise the obvious will happen! Lol. Shim with blankets or something like, too!

Thanks for showing everyone how to use an air conditioner properly! Use of two hoses is a MUST to allow it to work efficiently. The same goes for those portable/wheelable room units with hoses that run to the window. It MUST be a two hose unit in order to run efficiently👌. Exhaust the hot air, intake air is important as well to keep the internal space air pressure stable so that the internal space air circulates and gets cooler and cooler.

You could easily build a box plenum on the back of the cab and run the a/c intake into that. Build it with replaceable filter media and put the air intake toward the passenger side away from the truck exhaust. The a/c exhaust can be a simple 90-degree to deflect the hot air down and keep rain out. Wire mesh to keep critters out.

Your vehicle is equipped with CTIS, Central tire Inflationa System, most military vehicles do, the black rectangular module u read “run flat” is thst control box for the system, you changed the tire pressure to run flat which releases air out of the tires until the reach the minimum tire pressure needs to safely drive a short distance. That’s used in the worst traction environments etc driving in snow you drop your air pressure , you can inflat e and deflate the trucks tires while. Driving eith jsut this. I’d advise watching UKposts video about the truck. CTIS is SO cool and SO useful . Quick tip, the US Army and Marine Corps have been training maintainers aepcificslly THIS vehicle since the early 80s, if you have equations , jsut post a question or place a Facebook add saying you count int ahdbneed a elajtjiut if whetting

Yeah, there's no way that truck doesn't have accessory power you can tap into. The AC is almost $2k with the battery, I'm sure they got it for free in exchange for featuring it (no shame there, get that $$$), but saving the battery for actual portable use and tapping into the 12v system with an inverter would be way more efficient/save the battery from unnecessary charge/discharge cycles and keep it out of the heat.

Point of clarification, just because a vehicle is over 26,000lb gvw doesn’t mean you need a CDL or because it has air brakes. If that was the case most every RV owner would need a CDL. It has to do with how you use the vehicle. If you are using it for a business or a way to make money then it lands falls under the CMV regulations found in the FMCSRs. Great videos guys keep up the good work!

Suggestion: try an electronics shock tray. Lots of varieties and not too much money. It will cushion the AC from being bounced until something snaps.

Also, you don’t want that thing flying at the back of your head during a panic stop (or Heaven forbid, a collision).

Even though it is good to avoid removing trees uphill from important assets, if possible you may want to deforest an area on that hill that would allow you to easily load and unload the army truck as a walk on with a ramp that can be secured and removed. Reinforcing that bank with some self pour concrete block might be a good idea long term with all the rain that area gets if you start seeing any movement but it seems fairly rocky/ shale loose rock. You may want to make a sign telling people the puppies have air conditioning so they don't try and rescue your happy dogs.

So our red headed flight attendent didnt tell us where our exits are. Great additions to the giant army truck. The new microphones make you sound like you are ready to take off. this definately would be the right vehicle if it were not for diesel being almost 6 dollars a gallon. we love your video!

Courtney, try "Pure Citrus Orange Air Freshener" spray. It will kill the rat poop smell in one application, plus any other normal household smells. It's made from orange oil concentrates and leaves a light "orange" smell. Also the orange oil is perfect to remove sticker residue as it's a natural solvent when sprayed directly on something. So Riley gets to use it also. You can find it at Home Depot or online at the usual places. Also, I'm not sure about the scoop idea. You don't want it to just suck the hot exhaust air back in. Might need to be a double scoop stack (one for intake air, one for hot exhaust). Another thought would be some way to block off those inlets to the "plenum" when the A/C is not in use. You don't want critters coming in if the A/C unit is not in place to block them (or building nests in the plenum even if it's in place). All fairly easy to plan for.

That air intake is pretty close to your exhaust. Make sure the loop is sealed up enough to not leak Carbon Monoxide into the cab. Also, check your soot buildup after a bit inside the unit. You may need an exhaust extension.

The black pipe next to the cab is the air intake. But yeah, be mindful. Some years ago near here two guys perished due to a poorly ventilated propane heater inside their van.

Put some screen over the intake and exhaust to keep the critters out

Furnace plenum A supply plenum is an enclosed compartment that's located just after your heat exchanger if you follow the flow of air through your furnace (see below). When your air handler blows air over your system's heat exchanger, that warm air is directed into the supply plenum.

I suggest you add some kind of cover over the intake so you don't suck in rain, which will happen on the back of the cab. Probably shouldn't drive with the windows down while using the a/c. Most auto a/c's will damage the compressor if you do that for too long. It overworks to remove heat/humidity.
