Easy there, hoss. The Rover boys/FJ guys/Tacoma team/etc might take issue with that!
Regardless, it sounds like you're out to build one helluva truck. I can't wait to see it when you call it "almost done."
There is one truck I've seen that might do the job you're talking about, but it was a short cab/long bed that only holds 2 (3?) comfortably. It was a Super Duty lifted 6" with Bushwacker Cut-outs and 38" Mud Grapplers, locked front and rear, winches fore and aft as well, and much skidplating. Throw a tall, wedge-shaped topper on the back, an air mattress in the bed, and call it a camper and you might have exactly what you need. This guy ran an open bed and was one of those, "I do it alone" types, but man, that truck was BAD.
In my little Rubicon, I felt inadequate, insecure, incapable, and definitely not as good-looking. Took me a long time to shake that complex (juuuust kidding).
