This rig is awesome! Someone needs to buy it. If only I could convince my wife.

Since Walmart parking lots are RV friendly, that'd be fun to set up in the parking lot.

It's an easy $80k cheaper than an earth roamer. The ol lady's gonna retire soon. She's been eye balling the roamers, but way out of our 1% lifestyle. This is cheaper than a winnebagel, AND.....a much higher cool factor.mmmmm

I'm in love.

The pop up camper on that thing is 21 years old, and would almost certainly have issues unless the 1995 date is a typo.

2000 mile range, huh? Driving that thing 2000 miles would be about as much fun as a root canal with no anesthetic. I'm assuming there's no stereo system in the cab because you won't be able to hear it anyway. :rolleyes:

The math says that thing will be getting over 18 mpg, which I find difficult to believe.

I"m pretty impressed with what he's showing in the pictures. I"m kind of curious how it gets a 2000 mile range with a 110 gallon tank ... I was kind of thinking more like 200 miles ... LOL

Ad of course, as a 1989 model truck, it shouldn't have any of those fancy electronic doodads that let the gubmint track your travels (if that's of concern).

If I had a place to park something like that, it would be really fun to think about ...

I love the "mother-in-law facilities" on the video. [ROFL2]

Why would they need them? That thing is about as inconspicuous as a whore in church. Hell you can probably see it from space.

I had the opportunity to drive M900 series trucks while I was in the military. Imagine trying to maneuver something that size through the narrow cobble-stone streets of your typical German village.

Let's just say the novelty wears off pretty quick. ;)

Oh, and the CTIS was a total PITA. All the ones we had were constantly being deadlined because of CTIS problems. Nothing like driving down the Autobahn at 45 mph and all of a sudden your tires want to go to 5 psi.
