To the OP. I am in the market, tho not sure this fits our needs. Just confirming, no water, no grey tank, black tank or toilet other than a portable? And no AC based in Arizona. That surprised me.

Thanks.

I see the video now, missed that in the OG post.

I do see the ExPo post on it, and yes the AI images are in there too.

But these are clearly AI images......

Cool rig, but again some real exterior shots would go a long way

Again, it was to clean up exposure and make them cleaner and thats what happened to the pics. It didnt cross my mind anyone would care. It is my truck in the flesh and blood in the places we went. 🙄

Here are the original pics. Lets move on shall we.

Thanks for the questions.

Fresh Water is 38 gallons, also has a double water filtration system that comes with the truck. Has on demand hot water.

NO grey and no black tanks on purpose. By eliminating them you have less weight, less systems, less things to go wrong, freeze, leak or get damaged off roading. Im a big believer in not driving around and housing gallons of human waste or spent shower water. See below

Grey water goes out the side to hose connection. We use a 6’ flex hose to a bucket and empty the bucket on a tree. We empty the bucket once a day maybe, or once if you shower inside, except we always shower outside.

There isnt a black tank as there is no need for one. The truck has the Wrappon toilet. Each “go” is heat sealed in a 5ml bag with coagulant. You get something the size of a baby diaper but 100% sealed, then you simply throw it away. There is zero smell because every “go“ is heat sealed and the while thing is disposed of right away There is no waste to carry with you sloshing around that you eventually must empty. The toilet was originally made for high rise cranes in Japan. They are expensive, but it is hands down the best solution for waste management in an overland vehicle IMO. Its why most oev dealers carry them. You can easily remove the toilet and set it up outside in a shower cube or take it with you in another vehicle as it has a 25’ cord and plugs into any 12v socket. Its a brilliant design. Its the trekker model

AC …We decided against it. More weight, more solar more batteries to make it really work. Perhaps other owners can attest to the insulation of the truck. It never peaks out to the daily high inside and we usually camp were temps are pleasant at night. If it was that hot at night we proably would be in that place for day activities ( hiking biking etc) anyway. The insulation, 2 fans and the 270 degree awning keep the camper perfect even in upper 90 to 100 degree days providing nights cool into the 70’s. I wouldn't go to Lake Havasu on July 4th though 😁

The places you can get and have.this level of comfort and peace of mind almost makes you feel guilty. We actually laugh each time we go somewhere real remote and have the creature comforts.
