So I am driving back from a test run and I don't know how this popped into my head but I might have a name for this rig. The "beast" as it has been getting called just wasn't right so what popped into my head, "Mullet". You know, all business in the front, party in the back!
Describes this to a tee. LOL Just thought it was funny...
Dude--- That is like totally makin' sense! Whoa! Righteous name! Or how 'bout "The Mullet Expedition?"
(circa; late '80's; when real men proudly wore mullet hair-styles and offroaders read Four Wheeler magazine...) I'm reminded of my poorboy expedition days what I had an old Chevy C-20 I fixed up for off-roading with a D-Locker, Rancho shocks, BFG A/T tires, dual batts, heavy leafs, et., al., and just generally dedicated to hauling a slide-out camper plus boat to the boonies. So I finally got a hold of a decent enough camper and did a total interior remodel, 12-volt plugs all over PLUS 110v to make nice for wifey's hair dryer, etc, and outfitted with tons of other stuff as well. It turned out to be a fairly comfortable and functional rig for either camp-ground or primitive.
So by the time it was finished and ready to roll I couldn't help being inspired by the Four Wheeler mag articles about The Turtle Expedition. (how many remember Granville King?) Anyway, we had to have a name for our rig and it was this or that, or beast, and nothing fit until somebody snapped a pic of me standing beside the rear of the camper and when we saw the prints, there it was as plain as day: "The Beaver!" Not like Theodore Cleaver, but The Beaver was the manufacturer's model name plastered across the back of our camper. Hence; The Beaver Expedition was born.
Best of luck to ya' on your project there Mike!
