I have been a member here for a few years. You know, doing normal stuff like drooling over the rigs that you guys have built. Well, today I will become one of you...sort of. Today I take possession of a retired ambulance - 2009 build on a Chevy C4500; 6.6 L Duramax Diesel with Allison transmission.
I don't think I'll have the cash to lift it and put oversize tires on it; at least not yet, but I will be ready to have some adventures!
I have been having a lot of fun with my Toyota Tundra - I added a camper shell and ladder rack that I decked in. This gave me a lot of flexibility - sleep under the stars, easy camp setup, all while keeping my raft or mountain bikes with me. It was fun sitting on the top deck at music festivals and waiving at the people passing by. But... it was too cold to camp in the winter and and I even did one big no no - I got a hotel because I didn't want to set up camp in the rain with my girlfriend.
No more of that!!!
I think my ambulance will let me get some rest without even getting out of the truck, be warm while on a camping ski trip, and enable all sorts of adventures.
Thank you all for your inspiration!
