I want this a lot. It'd be the perfect motorhome. However, it weighs more, and has fewer horsepower from it's non-turbo'd engine, than my Unimog camper. Given that there were problems with speed and performance in the Mog, I can't bring myself to sign up for this one. How cool it is, though.

Wow that is cool. Needs to go to a museum for people to appreciate.

Cute x2, museum for sure. Reminds me of the VW 23 window sun roof bus. Cute, my best friend in high school '70 owned one. Girls of all ages wanted a ride in it. He got more A** than a toilet seat just because he drove it. It should have been worth 100G then but I don't see why they are now. LOL

smaller tires, less rolling resistance, and less drivetrain friction.

it'll be the same as the mog.
