    2018 Winnebago Revel 4x4 on Copart - with what seems to be very minimal damage.

    Anyone serious should hire an independent inspector to review the vehicle rather than speculate.

    Is the subframe out for fab? (or did I miss that?)

    2020 Ford Transit AWD

    For what its worth, crewvanman, our contact on the transit forums had mentioned previously that the AWD models will be produced on the assembly line, tested, modified/adjusted, then put into production. Hence the "late availability". If I was in the market I would be holding my money close to my...

    XPCamper goes out of business, files for bankruptcy?

    I don't think you are over thinking. Depends on the use scenario, as for keeping a 400lb blob on the back I think they are more than enough. For an ambo everything is overbuilt. As I mentioned, "I also plan on using this to mess around with various types of captured spring type mounting systems...

    Yeah most people assume that its steel I think (until they look inside the cargo doors). I love it. The cargo boxes and pass through are super functional. I find myself leaving a 6' step ladder in the pass through all the time. It fits snowboards, a weed eater, propane tanks, buckets, toolboxes...

    Would like to eventually build some drop down side gates, get some tie down points, and a rubber mat for the bed.

    The primer sure cleans things up. I used Totalboat Topside primer, http://www.totalboat.com/product/topside-primer/ I applied it with a brush and roller. The green filler is Totalboat Totalfair http://www.totalboat.com/product/totalfair/ Its two parts, yellow and blue make green, easy. It...

    With the help of neighbors and friends I removed the bed and flipped it over. You can see here, the mounting points, angle aluminum. The attachment point to the bed is drilled with steel epoxy sleeves. These will mount to the factory locations using the OEM mounting hardware/bushings. I also...

    At this point I ordered some NOS cargo doors off ebay. Once they arrived I cut the side skins from 3/8" ply. After this I thought to myself, maybe I'm not so crazy after all. Here you can see the side skins. The wheel opening edge was thickened with 3/4 ply (1 1/8" total), the whole panel is...

    Thanks, No flatbed camper, although it does seem like the easy way out. So what is the deal with the flatbed anyways? For the most part I don't need a functional pickup bed. The truck mostly pulls trailers. I had this vision in my head of this flatbed which is similar in proportion to Chris's V4...
