That link worked. Funny that some of the specs (total height in particular) are listed differently on 3 different places. Not surprising as the specs are still probably being finalized. I have a hunch that only a prototype exists in real life so far. Still no NCC and it's a wonder how this...

There is one owner in 2019 ish that ordered and had issues. He put up a website listing his complaints. A FB group reposted and it went wide. Lawyers got involved and he took his website down. But the internet is forever so the web archivers have some of the site still. No manufacturer is...

The newly announced ADX-21. The other ones are very cool but not the right floor plan.

I'm looking at both Pause and Bruder as options. Since I'm Canadian I know what a kilo to pound conversion is . But I'm wanting to be sure when Bruder says "Weight: 2420Kg" is that Dry like NA manufacturers quote all the time or is it max? If max weight, how do you calculate net carrying...

She could argue it a bit as a temporary resident. Most likely the dealer just doesn’t want the hassle of fighting all the corporate crap…. She could call around to a dealer who will. Or just book a weekend in Bellingham and be in the US.

It's not new. Mercedes was the first. Then Ford then Stellantis. Can't use the other country's warranty anymore. I know because I was looking to purchase a US motorhome and in the past you just needed a recall letter etc to import. That's still the same but if you buy a brand new vehicle...

For the Tremors the newer ones come with trail turn assist. Basically drags the inside rear tire on a turn. Pretty cool feature when you need it. Not gonna work in a Costco parking lot, but on dirt/sand/snow it sure would.

Now that we're leaving the Toyota only world, my 2 VW Atlas have been rock solid, snow beasts family haulers. Yeah people slam VW quality, but they all use the same suppliers now and mine have been solid choices. I've seen a few that went off road places that you wouldn't think a city car...

Highlander is a car that's pulled up it's pant legs to look like a SUV. Plus the 3rd row completely sucks for humans except small short ones. If $$ don't matter the new LC sure looks nice.

I get it, lots of opinions incoming. But that's what I'm looking for. My use case: Daily driver ~90% of the time, mostly city, occasional non tow road trip. Weekends/holidays it'll pull an off road capable ~7000# trailer up the highway down some crap forestry roads and sometimes up some...

Well as a near(ish) term buyer of a 4x4 Class C on a 5500 chassis I'm concerned! And the RV manufacturer in question is also concerned. So much so they are likely to move to Ford F550/600. So now I sit back and wait with popcorn in hand and park my $$ until there is some clarity in the market...

The other challenge may be that you can't get motorhome financing vs having a commercial chassis and then adding a box on top. Plates, insurance etc can be a challenge. One of many reasons we elected to move on from a custom imported box and back to a manufactured motorhome brand.

Where is the closest dealer that can and will service the truck? For around here RAM dealers are disappearing left and right. That means parts support and repair will go 3rd party. Not always a bad thing, but something to pay attention to. Also GM seats suck for me. Ford are good and RAM...

We were there a year or so back. South Island mostly. It would appear similar to EU. IE lots of parking lots called camp grounds and then when green stickers allow, dispersed camping style. I wouldn’t expect to camp near towns…

Eu does. My only guess is lack of inertia on the NA industry’s part.

I went to look at what that meant and there are a bunch of floorplans. Might be useful to say which one you have. They range from 23 to 30'!

Given that mileage can reduce 1-2% per 100# of tow, that means a 5000# trailer reduces range by ~50%. I'm not sure if that holds true for EV or not, that's a gas mileage hit based on generic averages etc. But that means you'll be overlanding on mostly gas power. For me, 90% of my driving is...

Very true. Have had a few VW over the years but the 87 GTI 8 valve was the best built ever. Current owner of a 22 Atlas Execline and like my 18 it’ll be mine till the day the warranty is up then back to VW. FWIW the Atlas is ~$30k less than an equivalent Jeep Grand Cherokee and ~$50K less...

Very fair points. I guess it's more of an image problem than a tech problem. Around here every 2nd KIA that's new appears as an EV. Yet you go to a VW lot and have 1 choice, and it's kinda weird looking. If they chose to take that eTron tech and put it in 50% of their platforms instead of a...

The tow capacity and range extender options are the winner here. And eventually when the batteries get better range they'll just kill that option. Tow a Bruder or such behind and you've got a pretty sweet set up. Excess solar can be back charged into the truck when at camp and when driving.
