Looks like a good clean truck to base a build off of. Sourcing insurance on these trucks is problematic because they are considered commercial. If you do get a commercial policy, make sure to read the fine print. Some insurers place a radius restriction on the distance the vehicle can travel...

Thanks for the write up and letting others know. With a little crowd funding you can create a multimillion dollar start-up company cranking out offroad protection equipment for the later model Canters. You could travel the world living off the royalties. Load up and go anyway. If you have a...

They've been down into the Americas as well. A trip to Russia was planned, but I'm not sure if it is still in the works. If anybody knows about a Blog of their travels, please post it.

If you're having issues offroad with the Duonic transmission in automatic mode, blame it on the fuzzy control scheme. Per Mitsubishi; The fuzzy control estimates the driver's intention from the vehicle load factor (derived from the theoretical acceleration and actual acceleration with an empty...
