Hello, Two of the eight exhaust manifold nuts were sheared (probably due to vibration). One of them was particularly difficult to remove. Hence a lot of noise and the engine brake did not work anymore. Everything is fine now. Waiting for renovation I guess... Seems that it will wait a long...

2012 - Year of the Trip ! Hello, It's been a long time since our last message. Here are some news. Our truck spent the winter at the builder's premises to get some things fixed and / or improved. Two solar panels have been added, so we now have 4 x 80W. A nice awning has also been fitted ...

Hello Apexcamper, Thanks for sharing your real-world experience, I'm sure the owner of this thread will appreciate it as much as I do !

Hello, Well the cell of my truck exceeds the cabin of about 60cm. It's a lot, but I'm tall and besides that, we needed three bunk beds on top of each other, so we ended up with a 2.40 meters high cell. We only have a 180HP engine but we can easily maintain 105-110 km/h, on a flat road though...

Hello, Glad to see you started your build ! Looking forward to see more.
