that is one of the "secrets"... and no photos permitted, you´ll have to buy one to find out..:elkgrin:
but here is the thread where Stefan (the owner and designer) has documented the evolution with some more pics:

thanks a lot Scott and Erik. That is motivating, still a lot to do...:coffeedrink:
They told me it would be a story about Marcus and the offroad-schmiede and I thought our Toyo would be just one of many examples shown
Marcus exhibited meanwhile in Bad Kissingen "Abenteuer & Allrad", we visited him and our exposed Toyo just for the weekend

Hey
This has been an excellant thread; I would like to see something similar to Sonke's but on a full size american/Toyota 3/4 or 1 ton vehicle chassis. My compliments to Sonke on a very good looking, well executed camper. I would be curious to know approx. how much you have invested, which I would imagine would be quite high with all of the custom work that was done, but is shows quality throughout! Nice rig.

Hey Pete, thanks
I can just tell you, that for a simillar cabin Marcus would now start charging by 25K€. :Wow1:
It will depend very much on the shape, welding rounded profil takes a lot of time...a simpler shape and the use of rightangle profil will make it a lot cheaper.
if you ship your truck Marcus would be glade to help you..

Hey
Soenke,
Even if you added another 10-15% to the $25K, that's still not too bad when you consider how much stuff costs these days and even a comparable decked out trailer would run you $15K+. I like how it's all self contained.

25.000 Euro is about $35,000 in Yankee dollars. Craftsmanship
commands high prices, on both sides of the Atlantic!
$35K actually isn't that bad. You'll probably pay $25K to
Alaskan Campers to make a custom design. The camper part
of an Earthroamer XV-JP costs $70K.
I wonder if we could convince Markus to develop a standardized
design for a full-size American pickup with flatbed. Sort of like
the Terra Cross line that Unicat makes.

It's in German, natürlich.
