I’ve owned both of the unicorn diesels (7.3ford and 5.9ram). My experience was like meeting your childhood hero’s later in life... it’s ok, but not what you thought. The premium you pay for a 25 year old diesel is pure insanity and as several above mentioned, the maintenance cycle is increased...
the little Alpicool is a decent “weekend” unit. The price makes it attractive and it’s actually a true compressor fridge so it works off kilter. For ~$150 it’s great.
I’ll inc a link to the San Diego Craigslist link. Let me know if you are interested, or have any questions? Thanks. Happy exploring.

Really good feedback everyone. Seems like the pack is 50/50, so thanks for nothing I suppose lol. Kidding!
I’m in San Diego with plenty of sun and sea air so the thought of a fast degradation is an important consideration. That being said, they look amazing when done well! Damn portal! Making...
I recently got a new toy in the form of a 1994 4x4 sportsmobile and the clear coat is starting to show its age a bit. The truck is still new to me and we’re in the honeymoon phase where I want to rebuild every aspect of it and ruin my marriage to make it perfect blah blah blah.
question is, has...
Everything about this rig makes me want it. I’m actually thinking of how I can convince my wife that it’s a “good deal” or a “sound investment” ... ??♂️??♂️??♂️??♂️???
Hate to say, but the 6.4 is simply a disaster. $20k to replace correctly and all you have is an engine that will let out again in the worst possible place. Cummins swap or bust!
Or earthroamer 6.7... ?
Hey there. I’ve done two ambulance builds and the head room is ALWAYS my frustration, as 60-64” is about what you can expect. Please let me live through you and get this! It’s the best base I’ve seen in a decade! Thank me later...
Long time member here and have built and ran several rigs over the years. I recently discovered that Dave is literally my neighbor. Small world, I know... I’ve seen and put hands on this latest creation and for my $.02 it seems to be of a higher build standard. It’s been parked in a few spots...

Cute little stinker! Too bad I have a wife and three kids... lol. Seems well priced based on the tiger market.
Finally a reasonable rig to consider. I spoke to “chuck” the seller and he seems very normal and was informative as to the good and the bad. This would
Make a great starting point for someone. Good engine and great layout IMO.
