ADHESIVES

Floors, roof and side walls were primarily bonded together using the same Toughened Structural Acrylic Adhesives used to bond many high impact military tactical vehicles, fire trucks, etc.

The acrylic adhesive series was chosen for its high elongation and impact resistance.

Using adhesives instead of all welded connections allows you to build with aluminum and take advantage of that material’s many advantages, such as its light weight, tight tolerances, natural corrosion resistance, strength and durability

It is temperature resistant, performing at temperatures from -40 degrees F to +300 degrees F.

As the saying goes.........One picture is worth a thousand words. The many many photos of the red MB 1222 AF DOKA presented for sale on this great website are what prompted me to get on JetBlue and go see it. Yes, I purchased it. The seller and family turned out to be some of the best people I have ever met! Expedition Portal serves a unique group of people who love to get out and enjoy the great outdoors in ways most people can’t imagine. After my last extremely bad experience with a seller, this seller went to great lengths and time to make sure I was happy with the deal. It’s was truly a fantastic experience. From the time I arrived in their State to the day I flew home, this young family (with a 4 month old beautiful baby girl) were so gracious and accommodating. They took care of all my needs. I was very lucky to meet such wonderful people.

Under solar in the ad, it states 320 amps of solar.
I believe you meant to say 320 watts.

Great looking vehicle and while I'm not a buyer I'm curious what the range is with a 65-gallon petrol tank?

Cheers

Probably around 400 miles; I only drove it once home from the factory ; has a 65 gallon tank the gas engine will get less mileage than diesels

That is dreamy. You've had several very high end rigs for sale here on expo haven't you? I may have missed the story, are you still searching for the perfect fit? Do you buy them to resell them? Thanks in advance.

Yes I've owned many campers including several Tiger adventure vehicles, Global X's and an XP camper. I've enjoyed them all, but at 75 years old and retired I'm no longer going to the rough places I used to.I do not buy them to resell but will probably settle on a less rugged van or smaller rig for my hunting and skiing trips.

Before coming across my c5500 quad cab with ITB box, this is what I was going to build. Really enjoyed my conversations with Angry Iron about it.

Beautiful work!

I may have to build one yet, I so want a cab over chassis.
