    Glad you're keeping it, run it into the ground!

    Holy burritos, 2 things we agree on! We're on a roll buddy. :)

    What will happen sooner... a Ford Gas vs Diesel dilema

    You did? Where? They're the first 2 prototypes. Unsure if it's changed, waiting for updates, but probably late Sept or so?

    F550 SRW Suspension kits Buckstop / DBL

    It is a bit silly that both of those organizations, seen as the leaders in RAM susp upgrades, haven't branched out past the 2500/3500's. Enough people building 4500/5500's now, heck they could sell their stuff to GXV, Nimbl, etc. Lost revenue!

    SOLD 2017 F-350 super duty 6.2l gasser and 2009 Hallmark Guanella $69.5k

    Looks like a very clean 7.3LTD! Glad to hear on your experience with your more modern 6.2L V8. Continues my confidence in mine. GLWS and happy travels!

    where are the Porsche cayenne expo builds?

    PTV+ which is the Porsche Torque Vectoring (fancy, locking rear diff). Not all have factory roof rails(which is what you attach a roof rack to). And if it doesn't, this means you have to drop the headliner down and retrofit them, which IIRC, Porsche wants 5 arms and 3 legs for. I don't think...

    2017 Earthcruiser EXP 25kmi *****Reduced*****

    Good to hear on the triple layer; difficult to tell in pictures and I've only been in the FX models at EC HQ. How strong a winds have you been in to test the no-flapping, as you mentioned above that you put the top down in very strong winds?

    SOLD 2017 F-350 super duty 6.2l gasser and 2009 Hallmark Guanella $69.5k

    As in manual windows, manual door locks, manual t-case, manual HVAC slider? Jeez, really going the way of the dodo bird. ;) Hopefully such an old truck won't drive you into the ground for maintenance/repair. I'm sure your '17 has only needed oil changes and that's it; 6.2L V8 is very reliable.

    2017 Earthcruiser EXP 25kmi *****Reduced*****

    The canvas sides aren't insulated at all though, right? ie no 3M Thinsulate stitched in between an inner/outer canvas layer? Single digit F is impressive. Sleeping with the top up in stronger winds would be noisier I would assume, just like in any soft-sided "tent" structure (FourWheelCamper...

    SOLD 2017 F-350 super duty 6.2l gasser and 2009 Hallmark Guanella $69.5k

    Nicely equipped truck! If I would have seen this for sale about 2months ago, I would have bought the truck immediately. GLWS!

    Gassers: Ram 3500 6.4L vs Ford's F350's 6.2 and 7.3 Godzilla for overlanding

    Pics or it didn't happen. ;) Agreed! However, by the time you have a cabin built or build a cabin, then a full interior, you do end up with a much larger cabin due to the snub-nosed E-Series, but boy does that 4x4 conversion cost a WHOLE lot more than the $3k for factory F-Series. Been down...

    where are the Porsche cayenne expo builds?

    LC200 is quite a bit wider than the Cayenne or GX, more vertical sides too.

    Gassers: Ram 3500 6.4L vs Ford's F350's 6.2 and 7.3 Godzilla for overlanding

    I sure hope you're dressed when you present the kartwheel. :ROFLMAO: Send that chassis-cab to Quadvan (or ExpoVans) instead of Quigley for the 4x4. Then do a Boxmanufaktur or Total Composites cabin. Would more easily allow the crawl-thru.

    Gassers: Ram 3500 6.4L vs Ford's F350's 6.2 and 7.3 Godzilla for overlanding

    <major rolleyes> Not that I'm in this industry, nor that I've spoken to fuel tank manufacturers about why they don't offer a poly(or metal) petrol tank, gov't/NHTSA/FMVSS regulations be damned (at least one didn't offer the petrol due to reliability issues they had seen with the PCV system on...

    2020 Ram 5500 DIY Composite Panel Camper Build Thread

    LMA-O. At least I use ExPo as my comedic input o' the day. I'm picking up an old TacoChaser trailer (built by one of your favorite people), and I'm going to have Titan make a custom 2000L poly PETROL fuel bladder for it, and tow behind my dogpizzaovenmobile so I never run on fumes. :p

    On a scale of 5, I did pretty good eh? Understood on your skillz with crayons. :geek: (same way here)...Don't you have some Baja1000 engineer buddies that could draw it up for you? Straight to HPI could also work. LMK when you arrive and I'll meet you there.

    Hooray, back in business as they say! And I'm sorry, what???...no great adventures planned yet? I beg to differ buddy. :cool: PS--Well done on your signature list. I'll try to remember if you forgot anything.

    2020 Ram 5500 DIY Composite Panel Camper Build Thread

    If you’re lazy and stick to IG for your research like @RAM5500 CAMPERTHING then you likely won’t get a custom gray water tank built from the get-go. (LOL, zing! :p :ROFLMAO:?) Yes it'll be more expensive for HPI to build this custom tank with a trough, but they have talented engineers who can do...
