    Ram 5500 Fire Crew Carrier Overlanding Camper Build

    Can you share some info on that outdoor sink? And I also settled on using the Laveo Dry Flush for my build. I've no issue installing a blackwater tank, but when I first saw those I was sold (I had an RV once and am all too familiar with dumping stations and been using a little...

    What to buy???

    You might look at some of the builds using surplus military trailers like the M105. Rugged little buggers and can be pulled with most trucks/SUVs. And not stupid expensive to build out. Bonus points for using a S250 shelter with it. Trailers can be had for around $1500 and the S250 can...

    1996 Ford Cargo build question….

    I've got some shots of crawl throughs I've been saving until I do my LMTV. Most affix the tunnel to the habitat and collar the cab connection, some do the reverse. And on trucks with a lot of frame twist off-road, some mount the tunnel to the frame and actually collar both the cab and the...

    My new Volvo TGB 1314

    I have an LMTV and two M1082 trailers in my driveway. And another LMTV at the curb. My neighbors have been cool with it so far (the past year), but I do need to the second one to a storage. Someday. There is no HOA any longer but I discovered that you can't park a truck over 1 ton on the...

    Help - Insuring Freightliner FL60 Ambulance

    LLC's can come in handy for registrations, etc. My cars are owned by my out-of-state LLC (they'd not be legal in Texas). But since they belong to the company and registered in it's home office state, it is absolutely legal to drive them in all 50. There are some minor requirements (like a...

    You'd hate my 10hp 6kw diesel gen. You can hear it and hate it both from 50 miles away. I'm just determined to only carry one fuel...

    DIY Composite Camper T100 Expedition Vehicle Build

    I have never measured mine. I do plan to do so, once while I have the box off to mount one of the water tanks and again after the buildout is complete. In both instances it will be using a fork truck to do the lift. It's more for peace of mind...and curiosity.
