Ran into this while I was busy doing very important stuff at work today:

That's pretty hilarious and ingenious at the same time.

I first saw this maybe 2yrs ago. It was a good thread about the build. I really like it. Glad to see it making the internet rounds again.

I'd like to see a video showing the transformation from truck to two story house!

That's cool! Very ingeniuos design, and no wasted space.

Can't exactly play a round of poker on the 'deck' though:Wow1:

Maybe solataire!:snorkel:

Very cool, but with only 4 tatami mats setting up the bedroom in an auspicious layout could be a challenge. Could be bad fortune.

I recall seeing this thing years ago, great idea. Curious, to say the least, but great idea. It certainly seems like something the guys around here could do as well...

That is just about the cleverest thing I've seen in a long time. Talk about spacious upstairs!! Makes even the best RTT look primitive!

I like the TUB in the bathroom, too!

Curious that the labeling on the dashboard switches was in english...
