Description​

Located in Santa Ynez, Ca and registered as a motorhome in Montana with all paperwork. Because it is registered as a rv, it is not the pain of registering a military truck. I chose montana for the permanent plates. Makes it easier for international travel.

Upgraded MWE cab suspension
Custom rhino lined roof rack and lights
Military pelican cases on roof
Central tire inflation with pre set psi
Eco hubs (getting 11mpg and max 85mph)
Rebuilt cat 3116 with strengthened front end
Whole mechanical gone through.
Drive 3k miles since may, ready for build out
Rear ladder welded and operational
22.5 feet long
12x8x6’10 internal habitat dimensions
2 inch of insulation on all panels and 3 on the bottom
8k mileage

Cat 3116 with Allison 7 speed. It’s a push button transmission and has cruise control.

Spent the last year going through it mechanically. Does not have any leaks. Upgraded air dryer and cab air ride. The habitat has lights but work off truck batteries. Was in the middle of planning the electrical system. Truck is 12v and 24v. Has a place to charge electronics in the cab. Steps are welded in under the rear doors.

Custom roof rack and ladders on both sides with several different sets of lights. (Looked weird with only a couple).

Everything has been greased, replaced or updated mechanical wise. I did a 800 mile rosdtrip a couple weeks ago and had zero issues. Starts right up.

This is the nicest M1079 for sale in the country. This is not a auction truck, this vehicle was sourced from fire service and was never in military hands. Being that it is registered as a motorhome there is no longer the issue of registering the military vin. Pre smog makes it a perfect candidate for long term domestic and international travel.
