I think this is their channel "Somewhere To Nowhere" https://www.youtube.com/@somewhereyetnowhere/videos

Congrats on the purchase. I have been watching your Youtube videos. Thanks for the real-world input! I think it's pretty close to the perfect setup for us. Maybe I just need to think about a modification to put the toilet on a slide-out from under that seat... Also, regarding the inverter, I...

Just learning about this truck and it really checks a ton of boxes. In addition to the flat bed design, low weight, clever/simple details, fixed bed, and tons of storage. A couple big things for me is it's a non-pop-up, removable, and reasonably priced vs other expedition options (e.g. truck...

What size tires does the van have? 33”?

GLWS. ZenVanz would be my choice if I didn't already have a van. Not only are they beautiful on the outside but look at the wiring, etc.; works of art IMO. Also, I really like that the cabinets, walls, and ceiling can be unbolted and removed for inspection, repair, maintenance, or adding...

That's a great length. Basically the same length as a standard Sprinter van. Awesome. Regarding the water collection on the roof, Bliss mentions it on their website (link below) so I was wondering how it works in the real world. They used to have a picture of the roof with drains in the...

Wow. That is very nice. What is the overall length (Front to the spare but not the bike rack extended)? Also, does it have the water catchment system on the roof that Bliss offers? Can the box be removed for truck and box transport in a container? I always wondered in the real world how a...

Amazing! Loved following along with the build. Can you tow a TOAD vehicle? For example, flat tow a Jeep wrangler? It would make an amazing base camp.

Looks like there is a German supplied option for the Sprinter vans. This video shows some details of a Zenvanz high roof with poptop build.

That's really interesting information. I wondered about importing completed trucks or chassis and cabin separately. The costs for the cabin could be substantially higher than the chassis, so at least that could be a lower duty. For instance,e a MB Chassis with a Blissmobil box the $200K box...

Noticed this while searching for things and thought it might be of interest here. 1992 so you could import it to the US. Has a diesel turbo (added), manual transmission, popup Camper top with interior. No AC and maybe only a rear locker (looking at the interior pic). They are asking 47K...

Noticed this on Mud if you are looking for a Troopy. Looks pretty cool and it's LHD. $60K. I have no affiliation with the seller; just passing it on. https://forum.ih8mud.com/threads/los-angeles-hzj75-troop-carrier-lhd-g-turbo-poptop-camper-interior.1242606/

If the truck has the placard with a Fire Truck designation does that qualify it for import treatment as a fire truck? I believe the duty is 25% (ouch) on vehicles so that would be a nice benefit for someone looking at similar trucks for import.

They mentioned "Old Fire Brigade" so I thought they meant fire truck and maybe it was painted. How do they designate a truck as a fire truck? Is there a VIN type number designation or is it a usage thing? I wondered if you took an old firetruck, converted it in Europe to an expo truck and...

Noticed this while searching for other things. Looks like a clean MB917AF and as an old fire truck, I believe it would be duty-free to import into the US. I have no affiliation with the seller and you should do your own importation research, but could be a good chassis for someone...
