The Sprinter variant definitely has its drawbacks. On the plus side the extra foot of length provides a couple benefits including 80” beds (at 6-3 that’s tough to pass up) and 4” extra “garage” space. Doesn’t seem like much but makes a lot of extra storage. The “dinnette“ area can also be...
I'm too old to figure out how to quote someone's post, but I think BritKLR is right on the money about having a discussion thread that could help an overland business recognize and solve business model/financial problems. I think there should be classes and forums at Overland Expo on the topic...
Nothing too special for the pooch. She gets a harness and seatbelt as well the platform and bed in the photos. Some answers:
The mattress is about 3" and there are Froli springs beneath. It's what came from XP and is on the firmer side (our preference). Others have replaced the low profile...
Hi folks, I’ve received a number of inquiries about purchasing the V1 camper without the truck. We get it. When we bought the V1 we looked hard at what truck we wanted. We needed a backseat as the dog always travels with us. We wanted an extended cab instead of a crew cab to keep wheelbase as...

The truck is a 2011 F350 Lariat 6.7 diesel (nav, heated/cooled leather seats etc.), extended cab, 4x4 SRW. It has...
We have the shorter 'travel' springs in our camper and are very happy with them. We have a lower end foam mattress that's about 3" thick and find the combination more comfortable than being at home. It's possible for me to "bottom out" the springs, but not easy. I'm 195 and putting all my weight...
Indeed. The Northstar camper with water weigh 1750# minimum (excluding options, food, clothing, gear etc.). Adult refreshments alone would put me well over 1800 (which aren't optional).
