Just wondered if anyone here has heard about changes to the Sportsmobile North (Huntington, IN) management. Someone on the SMB forum posted that they thought that Jim and Nancy had left or perhaps retired. They had run that shop for 40 years or so. It is still owned by the Borskey family that...

Did I see this in the parking lot at Overland Expo Mtn West last weekend?

The ad says "This Van Conversion is located in Camp Verde, Arizona and is in good condition.", but it may be a mess. I haven't seen it. My worry with the Baja is the rubber gasket between the top and bottom and how well it seals. Seems like two large pieces to try and keep sealed up in bad...

I think they pretty much fixed the spark plug problem over the years. My 2008 V10 has almost 200,000 miles on it with no real problems. Knock on wood. Ha, ha.

And the Winni Ekko is $180 to $200. The quality on AEONrv and OEV seem worth a bit more money to me. Also, most people don't have the space, tools, ability, etc. to do a home build.

I see RV Trader has a price drop, now at $250K. The price recently decreased by $39,000 https://www.rvtrader.com/listing/2022-Ford-F350+DIESEL+DOUBLE+CAB-5025286064

I understand they are thinking about 2 models with garages large enough to keep bicycles inside and hope to have one ready for Expo East later this year. It really sounds like what I may be looking for. Just a bit over 20' long overall on the 138" wheel base sounds very interesting. Hope they...

We just went to their facility about 10 days ago also. Very impressive. Top quality as near as we could tell. They are on our short list of options. Kind of wish they had an 8' unit also, but this feels pretty roomy inside. Thanks for the detailed write up.

Wonder if they bent that drive shaft on some rocks before it got twisted like that? I would hope you couldn't twist it just by the torque of the motor.

Truckhouse posted on Instagram that this is the last BCT unit and to stay tuned for what the next unit is.

I noticed that they have modified the website so that it now only shows the Adventure Truck XT and not the smaller one. I assume that is because StoryTeller may still be taking over production on the smaller one. It's been pretty quiet on info about that though. Last time I talked to ST they...

Since this was the newest GXV topic, I will post this here. It seems like their website has been down most of the day today. They may not even know. The Adventure Truck website is still working.

If I thought I could sell my SMB for what many of these listings are asking I might just put mine up for sale also.

At least I was able to find a place on their website to select the "Trail" package when using the build your own tool. Wasn't easy though. Might try to call them again this week and see if things have changed regarding availability...

At this point, I am sure you could convince them to put it on the F350. If the box really is carbon fiber it may not be too heavy. About the same size as the Truckhouse and they claim to be under 10,000 pounds for a complete unit. Still, mostly vaporware for now though.

Did hear them say the prototype was put together in South Korea? It could be a while before (if) they start building them in the US. Edit: The box is made in South Korea it sounds like. Not clear how much will be assembled in the US. Perhaps any optional equipment, different fridges, etc. will...

You might also check The Pro's Closet. Might be more for high end stuff, but worth a look for a value anyhow. https://www.theproscloset.com/

Bump to bring this back to life? Has anyone actually seen one of the Ford Transit Trail vehicles? I called my Ford dealer and they looked it up and thought it was pretty cool, but they have no idea if it will ever be available. They told me the order book was closed on Transits until September...

Still looks like vaporware so far.

Pretty sure I remembered seeing a picture of one in a GXV Patagonia. They could also probably do one in the Turtle.
