4x4 7.3PSD Chinook Concourse

[Tomsprops]

I just picked up this 2001 Chinook. It's a Rare Bird with only 66,000 miles. I'm super excited to have found this Wonderfull base camp for many future adventure. I found it 4 states away in Colorado. The first time I drive it was 1300 mile back home to SoCal. I just thought that I would share.

Sweet, what type and size tires are you running? I have 2WD Chinook with lift on order and am currently looking at new tires.

I believe that this is a Factory 4x4 Chinook. Trailways(Chinook) used Salem-Kroger for their inhouse conversions. Leaf springs the whole way around.
This unit aside from some electronic upgrades seem to be totally stock ?
Yes, it has a solar energy panel above the cab and a solar charger/Controller. This system seems to be a factory option ?
Lots of plans for the future. Nothing to wild. I just like to make thing just a bit better than how they come from the factory.
I'm reaserching Tuners and Trans controllers now. Possibly a visit to Agile Offroad will be in our future as well.

I could be wrong but I doubt the solar was original in a 2001 and if it is, it could probably stand an upgrade. Panels and controllers have really improved over the years.

That looks amazing. Let's see interior.

I have a 2001 and it was standard, I do plan to upgrade mine along with inverter but really it works fine.

So jealous. Congrats on the great find. Looks like I turned off all my Craigslist alerts too soon!

I recently sold my small motorhome, a little bigger than a Chinook. It was an e450 class B with dual rear wheels. I changed from the stock dinky donuts to Toyo Open Country ATII 235-85/16"s and gained a couple inches of height. Also, this size works well for the rear duals, no chance of them touching.

Was this the one that was listed on here for a long time?

No , I don't believe so ? This one popped up kind of under the radar.
