I know it's not yours. This is expo member owned and has been for sale for at least 1 year.

Ok cool I always put that, so I don't get PMs about it.

That's rad. Good price for a *lot* of kit.

Wow. Awesome setup and a great price!!

When I lived in Colorado I was going to check it out. The price has dropped a lot. Seems like a deal.

I found it on Ebay and it had sold for 22k (so it shows) Wonder what upgrades if any to jump the price up?

I don't think it sold, last ebay listing in a long series of reserve-not-met auction attempts ended with a no-bid auction of 16K. Sign in the window on CL ad shows a price of $58495.

Also the last listing from Jul 16, 2016 points people to the "expeditionelectric" site to learn more. I saw those guys at Overland Expo and their session was more sad than inspiring. They were campaigning some electric KTM 950s up in Alaska and trying to spin it into TV show. They had highly unrealistic expectations from the outset, terrible calculations (like, not factoring in wind resistance and elevation gains in estimating their range), seat of the pants outsourced engineering, and somehow not surprised to see this Doka associated with them.

Correction: Looks like they managed to unload it: expeditionelectric.***/mercedes-911-l-class-found-new-home/

Am I the only one skeptical about the 65mph claim? I met a German couple in a 911 in Chaco Canyon a few years ago. They said they drove at 45mph.

My buddy said if it could without rattling apart he would not even take it over 50.

I'm confused, it is a 1978 911L but it has the same motor as a sprinter and goes 65mph?

See: '80 kph' sticker on the back, 50 mph. No Sprinter ever came with that engine or anything resembling it.

That's this truck, right?

Guess The Buddy Expedition didn't feel like paying Photo Bucket's extortion either...
