Wow that is a great image....nice work Brad and congrats on them making good use of it. That is very much something worth printing and framing, making a screen saver or desktop or finding some lasting way of enjoying it.

I really dig these setups.... now really is there any special reason why one of our great US based camper makers or someone else can't make this happen here? YouTube - Azalai Camper in Tunisia

Finally a 4dr that is what a family man like me needs to see... all these great looking 2dr rigs that are absolutely useless if you are taking the kids, this rig is nice!

looks like the busdepot one off of samba.com great little awning and lots of the VW Van guys have run them for years

such as? Make us a list... They had sand ladders, shovels, jacks and were able to self recover many many times. So not to pick on you but it would be good to hear some details beyond just "they were missing some basic items"

RMP, it was the tone of your questions... it was evident by the fact that they didn't have the parts or tools that they didn't not have the skills or parts. They were on the road for 1.5 yrs, even a tube of gasket sealer is tough to keep track of for that long. Or find a replacement of in many...

I can't repair the hubs or axles in my Sportsmobile, does that mean I can't go to Baja? Oh wait I do go to Baja and if I have a breakdown I get a local mechanic to help. Oh and I don't carry spare brake pads, or spare axle shafts or any major component. They didn't carry major bits either and...

Single traveler vs couple vs family... That is what makes the difference more than anything else. I would love to get a simple rig and do a sleep inside setup, which would be ok for me alone and might work with the wife also... but add my son's and maybe the dog and it all goes out the window.

I am humbled to say that the wrap was done better by a person writing in his THIRD language than I could have done in my native tongue. I am impressed by the honest and open way the report was written and have nothing but respect for these folks. I am not sure how I would react put in their...

I have stayed out of all this arm chair quarterbacking up till this point... but now I have to say a few things: 1) I agree that it is good to learn from others, but only with due respect for those folks 2) Far too many people spend all their time and effort talking, and little if any doing 3)...

Ok I think the Overland term is reaching market overload.... check out the newest "Overland" rig from jeep http://blog.caranddriver.com/jeep-debuts-upscale-grand-cherokee-overland-summit-liberty-jet-at-l-a-show/

http://link.brightcove.com/services/player/bcpid61626370001?bclid=0&bctid=661666610001 I just saw this video and I like that they featured one of our own and showed off the Eezi-Awn tent.

Very Very cool, signed up and added to the Google Calendar It would be great to get a "future of the industry" session that takes into account the recent growth and the new slew of vehicles aval for overlanding Another would be get Jay & Alice (and kids) to talk about real life family on the...

once again I am impressed with your way of interacting with other Doug... I recently had a chance to meet the guys importing the Bremach T-Rex into the US, and helped them make contact with Sportsmobile West.... Of course this got my brain going along the lines of putting a camper box on the...

That is a killer deal on the 74L dual door! Having run my Luna Weekender for a year now 24/7 here in Phoenix I can say this is an amazing fridge. I like my Engel but I love my Luna :) I really think for anyone who uses their fridge much or has kids the dual door is really the way to go. You...

if you make it to Phoenix (south of Flagstaff here in Arizona, Southwest of you in Las Vegas), then you can park outside my house, sleep in the house, shower, wash clothes and enjoy some home cooked meals. Just pm me a day or two in advance, and welcome to Expo

That is the rig that inspired the Disabled Explorers WAVE (wheelchair accessible van for expeditions), Andy was kind enough to let me take it for a spin at the first Overland Expo and that was all I needed to realize what a great platform Sportsmobile West builds. Andy is top notch and takes...

It is always great to have factory folks involved in a community. We may never be the largest customer base but we can be the most visible and fun :) Welcome to Expo! Now when will the gas/electric hybrid be available? I really think that will be the best base for an overland rig...sure there...

I was very impressed with the African Outback awning and that is coming from a die hard Hannibal fan. I played with that awning at SEMA opening & closing it and now we get to hear some long term durabilty reports. Congrats on the products Andrew, I know you will get good use of them all.

I can not stress enough the value of adding a quality sound deadener and insulation throughout the entire rig, doghouse, walls and roof along with the floor of course. There is a section on the sportsmobileforum.com for homebuilds that has some good info. Keeping the wgt down will really help...
