Instead of a container why not take an existing camper trailer and bolt that on a flat bed rig,,if you arent rich buy an older one..
I was actualy thinking about doing just such an build..
,Airstream would be my choice as its light and aerodynamic..or maybe one of those fiberglass made TT (...

I think that most class A motorhomes Americans drive are built on same platform chassis as buses coaches for public transport and these
Can run half a milion miles or more without any serious issues.
Some people even buy old buses and build their own motorhomes on those,,there was a...
You must be joking,right?
Have you even looked at how advanced these CRSV heads are compared to old obsolete poppet valve diesels?
For one it has Better breathing capacity then any 4 valve heads,,no valve spring presure to overcome making more hp in the proces,
No need to change oil for 50...
On the subject of diesel engines,,
these Coates rotary valve heads blow away any old diesel with popet valves,,(and even the new ones too)not only in increased performance but in reduced
emissions too,due to the fact it doesnt need oil circulating in the upper part of the engine,heads,valves...
That incinerating toilet looks promising except for the need to use those paper bags every time one goes,,not very eco imho,
,also how would one use it if run out of those,,maybe someday someone designs perfect toilet
Meanwhile here are couple interesting designs that seem very practical...
Biotect
I understand exactly what you're trying to build,,however from my point of view it's not practical
And..from the lack of traffic here I honestly doubt there are many people who would care to own and drive this the way you think..
I have a suggestion. .post your TerraLiner idea on...
Believe it or not but I have read all the pages in this tread and know exactly what biotect wants,,however I wonder if he isn't bit out of touch with reality. .I've done plenty of traveling and see what people drive and live in..
I've never seen any old retired people who would like to travel...
Have you ever met or know anyone who would be interested in driving this type of vehicle the way you envision?
Those big American buses are still limited to good highways so yes they would be very impractical nay impossible to drive anywhere else..especially around the world thru some dirt...
This is way too impractical to drive anywhere but main superhighways..
Have you consider the cost of servicing all those tires and where to store the spares?
Have you ever driven class A bus or motorhome pulling a toad and tried to back it up into some camping spot?
Everyone I know driving...
Good question,
,from what I've heard, the Tesla haven't made a profit yet in all these years and survives on government subsidies and by selling carbon credits to other companies..maybe it's not such a good investment at all...
Gimmick huh LOL
The energy from the grid is so infinitesimaly tiny as compared to gasoline or diesel fuel it's laughable ,really..
Also as I've mentioned many superchargers out there such as Tesla has are charged by the sun. .

I dont understand why is it so difficult for anyone to comprehend how efficient hybrid ev are when the computer displays exactly how much
Gasoline the vehicle uses
Heres another example of Volt mileage over 9000 miles..

So too, Newell hired Porsche Design to do the exterior of its motorhomes, and the results are terrific. Newell coaches built after 2012 have what are probably the most beautiful Class-A exteriors on the market.
Perhaps Newell should hire Christopher C. Deam to come up with a standard template...
Im only quoting what VIA motors says,I havent tested or driven those vehicles either,
,I doubt very much they would lie like that bc if someone proved them wrong it would be the end of their business..
Only way to be sure is get in touch with them and go testdrive one,,
I sure would do this if I...

You seem bit confused..Prius doesnt burn anything its EV,,
This car is Chevy Volt hybrid electric.and.his computer display shows 250mpg combined
