Looking through the info on the Bliss website you linked to I think you have a very well designed and functional cabin for your truck. It could be simpler without the extra complexity but I think that it is maybe not as difficult to deal with as you might expect.

Yes, it is complex due to the networking and remote control features but it is built from high quality components. Looks like the major electrical devices are all from Victron which are high quality commercial marine components and have good users manuals and service available worldwide. I would...

That looks like a nice setup with the Bliss. What type of electronics does it have that are complex? Could be that it is not hard to understand and maintain it or maybe even simplify it while keeping the Bliss box...

I would give the Bliss box try before selling it unless you are planning on selling it to get some funds to do a simpler build. What do find to be too complex that will be solved with a simpler build?

I do wonder who buys an EarthRoamer HD when there are other options with similar capabilities and quality for less. These buyers must be looking for something beyond functionality and they seem to get it with the glamour (or something like that) that comes with an EarthRoamer. I suppose one...

Here is some info on what states are doing to track down Montana LLC’s. Google “California Montana LLC RV” to see more... http://www.rv-dreams.com/montana-llcs.html https://www.avalara.com/us/en/blog/2017/05/cant-outrun-sales-tax-wacky-tax-wednesday.html...

A Montana LLC is an option and you will see many of the GXV vehicles with Montana plates. We were living in Michigan when we bought the truck and didn’t expect to get the house sold last year and go full time in the truck. We didn’t have the option of keeping the truck out of Michigan until we...

I am paying around $3500 per year for a Progressive Full Timer RV policy on our Kenworth Patagonia which is registered in Sarasota FL where we are domiciled (sold our house and live in the truck). Not sure how much it effects the premium but we are retirees in our late 60’s with good driving...

Around The World Sailboat, I would guess??

I was originally going to get the Rad Power Mini but after looking at the Voltbike Mariner I decided to go with it. The standard bike includes the fenders and the step over height is lower (I am an older guy) and the customer feedback on shipping and initial quality seemed to be better with...

All comes down to trade-offs in the design. We wanted the 2 ft of full height storage in the rear along with the underbed storage so we have a garage door in the rear and two side doors into the storage area. The spare tire is inside along the side on the passenger side so it does take up some...

Ours was a little over 26 ft as delivered before we added the front bumper. We will only have a hitch mount bike rack for our two bikes on the rear (a Voltbike Mariner electric folding mini fat tire bike and a regular bike). We have the spare inside the garage area and no rear external storage...

We have the 425 tires and recently added the front bumper as shown on Herk72’s vehicle shown on the GXV website (link below). GXV is developing headlight protection to be added to the bumper which we will be getting along with the cab roof rack this fall when we return from Alaska...

This 10 year old one is listed for 90k and sold for 100k and maybe underpriced so I would guess 7-9 year old ones might be around 150k depending on size and equipment... http://earthroamer-for-sale.com/

Our GXV Patagonia has dual pane glass windows and it is in the under 1/2 mil category and available on lower priced models except for maybe the new Adventure Truck that has a molded body.

I saw that Unimog posted on a Facebook. It is nice to see something with a more modern design than the typical expedition truck. Here is another interesting one touring the world and in the US now, not really a camper but pretty futuristic...

We have two seatbelts on the bench seat in the front of the cabin in our Kenworth Patagonia and with the large pass through there is a nice view out the front. You are facing to the side but a nice view out the front in any case. You can also have the table in front of you while you travel. We...

So, is the re-manufactured Steyr still eligible to be imported into the U.S. as a 25 year old vehicle?

They are very busy and expanding with a recent move to a large building that they remodeled in Springfield and they are in the process of adding more people and equipment. When I was last there they were working on several new Kenworth Patagonia’s...

Yes, that was me being interviewed. Chair is held against the wall with a small ratchet strap when traveling. Without opposing bench seats or a dinette on the side you don’t have a second bed location so that is a consideration.
