FTS800

FTS800 Bus.......
This is my new project..........

2010 FTS800. Hoping to set it up for long range touring and camping.

Converted to auto when new. So now has Allison Auto.
Electric Tilt Cab
I think about 400 Litres in 2 fuel tanks.
Suspension seats for driver and passenger etc etc.

Currently getting the Hyrail System off.

Hope its not too big and restricts places I want to travel.

Plans for future are
winches front and rear
Bull Bar
Extra Water Tanks
Solar and 48v house battery set up
Fit out including toilet and shower etc.

Looks like a nice starting point, but yes, the size of this truck will likely preclude some tracks, given its width.
The Hyrail would open up other travel options, as long as you were willing to play chicken with the trains... ;)

Looking forward to seeing how you progress with this build.
