Wow thats nice. Love the wheels. Seems like a great setup. Out of my price range but GLWS.

Interesting. I haven't seen their operation, just going off what has been written/reviewed but your comment in addition to the Ujoint experience are concerning regarding the build quality of the top. Personally I like the V2 design better with the hard top so I wonder if that is an improvement...

I bet staples and glues are used in almost any yacht or camper but I think what he was trying to point out is that the XP doesn't rely on those for the majority of the build process. The cabinets, cabinet doors, floor hatches, etc. are molded in a way that would be better than just using the...

Yes, exactly... I started looking at trailers because they could be nicely outfitted and used as a base camp (eg an airstream with a Land Crusier or truck tow vehicle), but I don't like the length and limitations off road with a comfy trailer. Also to answer the "game changing" question...

One point that no one has discussed is that Marc has started talking (on the xp forum) that something could be worked out to make it possible to use the camper off the truck n the field as a base camp. To me this is a game changer for all XP campers compared to the competition in the higher end...

These are definitely niche products and I agree that a cheaper version of the V2 would be great. Maybe something similar to how SMB allows you to spec out the appliances. Personally on the V2 I might want an electric stove top (with a Coleman backup). Cheaper and simpler. 25k for the camper...

Bump for my favorited VDub.

Wow thats cool. Reminds me of a LR Forward Control. So the hard sided body is de-mountable? How is it removed/ For instance is it possible to de-mount and mount in the field for use as a base camp? That would be awesome.

Glws. Always loved this bus. Even the orange interior. Reading your build posts years ago was very inspiring, very well thought out interior and stealth design. What a great platform for someone.

Wow, that video is exactly what its all about. Looked like a great trip. Awesome. BTW... what kind of camera was the guy in the film using? Looked like a film rangefinder camera. I would say Leica but the writing on the top thru me off...

Just wondering, with these front storage cabinets. Would it be possible to mount a top loading fridge/freezer (e.g. National Luna) in there on a slide to the outside, or would it be too tall to access from the top? Maybe a rhinoslide style slide could be made to slide out sideways and drop...

Nice SMB. I have been following some of your adventure stories with it. I have been toying with the idea of getting a new SMB and the layout you have seems similar to what I was thinking. It looks like it has an enclosed toilet and shower in the rear? It is kind of a rare layout (most are...

I like the fold down counter. However, just wondering... is it illegal to block the rear turn signals?

Thank you for posting the review. Too bad the experience has been so poor. For the cost of one of those I am surprised and disappointed with the post purchase support (e.g. regarding the fan "we just install"...wow). I always liked the custom camper route for being able to do the interior as...

Stove choice is a pretty big topic so some internet searches and should show up a lot of information... especially if you check sailboat forums and such that have tons of info on this topic. In the sailing community at least, there are many many opinions on stoves, but I had an Origo alcohol...

Awesome pics. Thank you for posting. I love the design and details of the truck. I am soooo happy SMB US is in partnership with you to make these. I need to work on the wife to get one but it would work really well for us. I continue to watch with interest. Love the detailed photos.

Interesting. I was real excited (but skeptical) to hear the $125K price quote in the video. It is SMB so I expected it to be more expensive than that, but I think at $245K range plus the suspension, SS, etc. its now in direct competition with the Earthcruiser and the GXV Fuso. Not that that...

In regards to the poptop. I read that they are offering a removable hard top version. I am interested in seeing (even if just a rendering) of what the hard top would look like. Also, I would think it would be cheaper without the equipment required to raise and lower the roof.

Are these prices and options listed somewhere? It would be great to see a price list, fabric options, etc. Similar to what they have for the vans.
