    I admire anyone taking on such a project. No matter what materials and suppliers used. It's a lot of work. But at the end it's a priceless feeling enjoying it on trips. Cheers!

    Best Way to Control a Planar Diesel Heater

    The fuel pump or the fan are very unlikely to drain the battery. They only draw 0.something amps. But you will drain your battery if you run it on the thermostat as the pre glow before each fire up will need roughly 8-12amps each time. If you are in a small space, than this could happen very...

    Total Composites Slide In Camper Kits

    Yes you can but we recommend keeping the colour very light to avoid an increase in surface temperature. At some point ( 100c) the glue bonding the frp skin to the foam core could be softened and therefore blisters can form. you may ask why other manufactures are offering darker colours…. It’s...

    HELP TO FIND: 1#ADVENTURER 4 4x4 (2016-2020), 2# OVERLANDER f-550-4x4(2016-2021) Thankyouguys)

    To my knowledge there no rv or expedition trucks out there with seating for 8. You are looking into bus size! Aside from the secure and certified belted seating, where do you set up 8 beds and still have room for a bathroom, kitchen and room to store all your gear? Not even talking about...

    New for 2022? GXV and EarthCruiser hints

    You can trust me on that… they use our bodies and we helped with the engineering. They put a lot of very well thought details into the overall design to further stiffen the body and increase passenger safety. But frame flex was nothing to worry about. I believe there was even something in...

    Advanced modifies the mounting points but do not stiffen up the frame or do anything special to the box. I have been there many times :-)

    WTB - Hardened (bear-resistant) all-terrain camper

    I can confirm that Canada is very strict with bringing in fire arms. A good friend is a border agent and she told me that your vehicle and pretty much everything you bring will be first confiscated and you most likely end up in jail for at least a couple days. It’s a very serious offence.

    WTB - Hardened (bear-resistant) all-terrain camper

    As long as you are not dealing with polar bears a regular high end expedition truck will do. The weak points are the storage hatches, doors and windows. But most importantly, you need to keep a clean camp to not attract wildlife. I'm out in bear country all the time. To be honest, I'm more...
