The V2, but I wouldn't really recommend it. The V2 is a lot heavier than advertised (especially fully loaded) and takes the truck over its GVWR.
A Flatbed FWC or Earthcruiser GZL on the other hand...
I've decided to put my Diesel Toyota Pickup on the market. While traveling abroad I formed an affinity for old diesel Toyotas. After some searching, I found a recently imported '91 in 2016 (first year eligible under the 25 year rule).
My plan was to turn into an overland expedition vehicle and...
SOLD to someone in Europe.
A note to anyone looking at V2s in the states: You will certainly be way over your GWVR if you go with anything less than a 2500 truck. Mine weighted 1633lbs dry and wet it took my Toyota Pickup 1200lbs too heavy with 2 passengers.
I think it depends on the age of the child. During the time I had it, I would often use it as a couch/sitting area to avoid extending the cabover bed during the day. My girlfriend and I would then use the extra counter top above the fridge (which is available when the cabover bed is folded) for...
windtraveler, thanks – I'm over a few miles outside White Salmon. That isn't my house but a farm I used to live out on Sauvie Island. I'm hoping to build a similar casita as an ADU on my property once I get settled (and hopefully with the proceeds from the camper).
60toyetero, thanks! I would...
Thanks! I'm selling it primarily for lifestyle reasons. After being nomadic for a few years I had the urge for a more permanent home base and settled down in the Columbia Gorge. Since I'm in homeowner mode now, the XP is sitting idle and I could use the money to build out this property and get a...
XPCamper V2
Location: Grass Valley, CA
Price: $37,000 (costs $50k+ new)
After a few years of being nomadic and traveling in everything from a hatchback to an Earthcruiser, I've decided to get a house and am selling my XPCamper V2.
For those not familiar with XPCamper, they're a company based...
Apparently I can't have my cake and eat it too. I bought this truck last year to create a mechanically simple, reliable platform for a snow and surf chasing truck camper rig. Now that the project is done, I'm realizing that the XP Camper I chose is too much camper for the small 2.4 Diesel...
Great looking rig!
What's the wheelbase on this beast? I'm currently looking to replace my toyota pickup ('91 xtracab diesel) for some of the same reasons – mainly that it doesn't handle the weight of my camper too well. When you went from the Yota to this truck did you feel like it...
