I have installed a Total Composites camper on the EC CORE Fuso I bought and in the process of building into an expedition camper. I am documenting the building in a video series VLOG to help others out with their builds or to encourage others to do so. I am an individual learning as I go. The...

I've also tried to repair check engine light, which has been on since picking up new from EarthCruiser. They suggested "clicking" the fuel cap, indicating that they have confirmed an evaporative fuel system leak on my vehicles and/or others they have delivered, and EC suggesting that the factory...

I installed three grey water tanks combined together for the chassis/in-frame rail grey water system into the Fuso chassis and also an Extreme Outback high-output air compressor and tank, as well as another 5 gallon air tank with distraction for air connections at each corner. More details in my...

37x13.5 Toyo MTs. Each are rated to 4,300 pound weight carrying capacity, so plenty load carrying capacity per axle with four tires, which was a requirement in my vehicle selection. One BIG benefit of these tires, is that the tire and wheel weigh about 125 pounds each, so they can be lifted or...

Haha! Yeah, it does. If Mitsubishi had made the frame rails the same elevation across their length earlier, they likely would've had more success in the US market.

Fido! Awesome! I love Fido and your videos. Thank you for sharing those. We must meet and take a trip some day. It is a great "value", although the factory 4x4 is a way better value than this converted one, but the conversion does add some additional capabilities.

The title says EarthCruiser CORE, not that the DMV knows or cares. It's essentially a rebranded/final chassis build/conversion from Mit Fuso to EarthCruiser CORE, which along with a clerical error on the title by EarthCruiser has made the registration process multi-step. I don't think Chevy is...

You can reach out to EarthCruiser for updated and detailed pricing with options of their "CORE chassis"/4x4 conversion on an NPR or Fuso, but it's in the range of $125k-150k on a new chassis. Pretty darn expensive but does have a good set of components.

Is this in new condition and why selling?

I finally pick up the new truck chassis about two months behind scheduled pick up and start preparing and planning the modifications to the truck chassis and point out some issues before I embark on this journey to build out an expedition camper on it. https://youtu.be/QRfwYIC-GlM

I searched long and wide over the last two years for a truck chassis to build an expedition camper onto, and settled on a new (2019/2020) Mitsubishi Fuso with an EarthCruiser CORE 4x4 conversion and in the process of building and installing the Total Composites camper box and full interior...

I have driven a new (2021) E450 converted to 4x4 with 35" tires, and it drove well, with excellent turning radius, albeit a little rough on the road even built out as a camper. Granted, the ride very much depends upon the 4x4 conversion parts and quality. I have also driven a new Mitsubishi Fuso...

How do you plan on covering the Coosa? Since it's a polyurethane, Coosa says it take PU-based paint very well, such as a bed-liner style paint.

I appreciate the helpful suggestions. I think I have a simple, reliable and safe system that will of course work as intended with the factory system, and save me and others time at the filling station with less musical cars to get the pump at the matching side. I'll share more with my build...

Yes, agree. I am purchasing two new identical fuel fillers--cap, fill and vent tubes--one for each side, each about 18" above the top of fuel tank. Each fuel filler and vent will Y/tee together at just above the top of tank, so any fuel in either should fall into the tank and not rise up to the...

All good points. Thanks for those. The current fuel filler is at the very back of the 21 foot long rig, so finding a space that is 20+ feet long to back into or pull straight into with the fuel filler on the correct side will increase odds of an available fuel lane from 50% to 100% assuming...

Very interesting solution. So long as the welds in the stainless Y pipe are liquid-tight to light pressure, should be fine.

I am busy installing the items between the chassis rails of my new expedition truck/camper in the making, and I want to install two fuel fillers, one each side, so there is less vehicle shell game and waiting to get to an open pump when at filling stations. I want the two fillers and their vent...

While I have not driven this truck but have another just like it, and the owner can answer more, I can attest from having been inside the cab and camper, and next to it while it's running, it has quite an impressive sound, almost like a race truck. It's also very well put together, one of the...
