    Where to buy a expedition vehicle in China?

    My wife and I moved to China recently (Guizhou Province, for those asking). I'm teaching English here for the next year, but we want to start traveling around as soon as possible so I can pick up teaching jobs around Asia. We're wondering if there's a good resource for finding expedition...

    True, and I don't mind that kind of a rig, really, but it just doesn't have the seating arrangement we need. We're still stuck having to modify it, and I just don't know if that's the best way to go. However, budget-wise, it definitely leaves enough room for said modifications, so I'm left...

    Haha. Well, I don't have any experience with this but the FWC Fleet fits in a 6' bed Tacoma and can include a shower and a toilet. If you're suggesting that the truck simply can't haul that much added weight, I'll take your word for it. Frankly, as we're doing more research, we are realizing it...

    Indeed. I didn't mention it, but I am definitely open to the idea of an affordable camper/truck combo. I'd love to find a crew cab Tacoma, say, with a FWC attached. (I like the FWC because of the low-profile for off-roading, and generally good anecdotal reviews). However, from my cursory...

    Yeah, I actually reached out to that seller about the extra seating issue. He recommended installing one offset between the two front seats. (I would also uninstall the bench seat in the back and install a wet bath. To answer your previous question, 4WD isn't necessary. Nice, but not necessary.

    Good questions. Thank you! -We don't have an exact size in mind, which may not be very helpful. The best I can really say is, bigger than a Westy but smaller than a Class C RV. Something navigable. I think our ideal size is like a Sprinter or a large conversion van. -Terrain-wise, I'd say 80%...

    First of all, I know there has to be a better place for this post to go but I can't find a "Vehicles Wanted" section, so I'm hoping someone will (kindly) move this to a more appropriate thread, if one exists. My wife and I are planning on traveling in the next few months, but we have a few...

    Pop up tops (newbie question)

    Thanks for the info! And yeah, we both really like the Sprinter 4x4. Just not sure if the budget is going to allow it. We have until 2018 to find out, I guess!

    Pop up tops (newbie question)

    Forgive me for barging in like this. I'm brand new to the forum, and I wasn't sure where to ask this question. I feel pretty silly even asking, but... I've been looking at a lot of different Vanagons and other similar vans online lately, specifically vans with pop-up tops... but for some reason...
