About 8000 pounds; more than enough to support the weight up front.

The actuators you see in this photo on the front wall of the camper raise and lower a mounting bar for antennas (CB, GMRS, Ham radio, Weboost) so that they are not in the drag of the wind or smacking trees or preventing me from pulling into my garage before rotating them down or removing them...

Here is a photo of mine, self-built, nearly complete.

Isuzu NPRs are still sold in the US by thousands, Mitsubishi no longer sells new vehicles in the US but will sell parts in the US as required by law for 10 years, about 9 left. These vehicles and their parts are common throughout the world (except the US). I ordered a replacement door seal...

Howdy! Let's reconnect.

More payload and at least three feet more camper length than most diesel full size pickups yet with the wheelbase of a Defender 130 or Jeep Wagoner and the turning radius of a Grand Cherokee. Can fit within a normal parking space with a 13 to 15 foot camper yet rock crawl almost as good as a...

Thanks. It'd be great to see photos of the main cabin/kitchen and bathroom.

Agree that regular size tires are much more likely to be available, with more options, and drive better, and be more manageable when doing tire rotations and changes.

GVWR is not important, real payload capacity is. Ford F550 has a payload rating of about 12,000 pounds (in dually) and the NPR HD about 9,000. Either is likely way more than needed to support a habitat likely weighing about 4-5,000 and water and food and gear weighing up to another 2,000, and...

The engine specs are in the spec sheets. Having driven a NA U500, I can attest that they have no problem getting up to highway speed and easily accelerating to pass at highway speeds. I test drove one in Florida so have no idea how they'd do on hills, but it is a tremendously torque'y engine so...

Thank you, appreciate the answers.

Hi there. Sorry to hear about your health issues and lack of being able to use this fine camper. Some questions to help answer what I don't see in the info sheets. It looks like a rear lowering motorcycle carrier was installed by GXV and since removed. Is that the case? And is the total length...

It's been fun following your guys and your travels in this rig on Youtube over the last few months. Sad to see you part with it. What might come next after the sale? GLWS.

Ready to be shipped or picked up before I offer for sale elsewhere.

Yes, I still have these two.
