    Any photos of it installed? You mention the Rambox and I haven’t been able to determine from the Diamondback website that it works with the rambox beds.

    Advice Needed:: To keep the Taco or not. Terrible economy.

    You said you're current truck is paid for. Will that be the same thing with a new one? How will the monthly payment of a new rig be offset by your gas / diesel fuel bill anticipated savings ? Put another way, I can't imagine a new Chevy's monthly pop plus fuel is going to be less than what...

    What became of this concept?

    I believe AEV had not-quite-the-same concept recently on the auto show circuit. This idea would have been a sure winner IMO. Too bad it faded into history.

    What became of this concept?

    So this thing looked like a great idea and actually got off the paper and made in to a proptype. But what became of it? My searches on EP came up empty for any old threads and net searches are all several year old links now. I would have assumed there would be a market beyond niche for this...

    2005 Ford F-450 Earthroamer, Salvaged, Mexico, Auction

    To deny KGH's musing is to ignore the reality of the place known as Mexico. What is not happening is the media coverage of the frequency of events that occurs there on a regular, almost daily basis. What is discouraging is that it is the indigenous population that are suffering. Are tourists...

    VW Syncro Westfalia 4x4

    :iagree: What I was thinking as well. Although there was a lot of work put in to this, $80K is a steep coin to purchase some nostalgia when there are now newer OEM options in the van-class of travel with 4x4 capabilities. Always amazes me when peeps think what they spent on these kinds of...

    Fuso/ 2 Slides

    Hmmm. 2014 model for about half the price of a new one. (???) https://www.hostcampers.com/product-details-expedition.html Pinecrest is south of downtown MIA. The plates ('10 registration) are from Oregon (Host is in Bend, OR I believe) so perhaps they purchased direct from Host and...

    Will Automakers Get the Market and Make Simple Vehicles Again?

    So the OP was obviously speaking of the off-road capable vehicle of lore. Products that go in to either an off-road or strickly-street auto/truck now-a-days certainly feel like a lot of hardware has been added "that isn't necessary." I just wonder what (where?) in history is the target to go...

    Planning Alaska trip- Pop up Camper or RTT? General planning.

    Heck McCarthy, you know exactly what to expect. If this is one of those "one in a ...." don't do it on the cheap if you can afford not to. Better to have memories of the beauty and grandeur of the travels versus "remember how miserable we were!".. BTW, BC is one of my favorite Provinces...

    Planning Alaska trip- Pop up Camper or RTT? General planning.

    If I recall correctly you said you were going to Prudue Bay in Sept. Having moved to AK in 1980 and then spending the next twenty years of my life there I can attest to the following: The Haul Road is a place where I hated tenting that time of the year (hunting) due to the temperature, wind...

    JDM Mitsubishi Delica JB500 camper body on L300 truck chassis build

    For the million + miles I've driven across NA (a gross estimate given the milage put on the vehicles I've owned for 40+ years) there are time where I feel like I must live under a rock. I have never seen one of these things before. Not to insult anyone but the wife thought it was [adorable]...

    Off Road Hard Side Camper

    All-season use? Is weight a consideration for you (what size truck do you have / considering?) Northern Lite builds a great product. Many are wanting the slide-out options now. So are you looking for RV-like considerations or bare-bones? Many great options out there. IMO you need to...
