Thanks for the interest! It has been pretty insane to this point! I think that this the most efficient way for me to reach such a network of likeminded overland enthusiasts! I am just an average dude that had a vision, not a salesman jigging for bites . . .It is hard to not be passionate about such an insane rig! Especially, as described before, there will likely NEVER be one like it for sale again. There was NO comparable out there, so we let the market dictate the price. Before the actually listing was posted, during the “sneak peak” period, sight unseen offers have been coming in. Few a little lower, majority in the ballpark of our asking price and some much higher. It is MOST important for us to reach the community and find the best fit for the final home.

Like many, we started in the 4WD van, and our SMB was great. But as the kids got bigger, so did the boards and the wetsuits, and the gear multiplied etc.. We did everything we could do to stretch our time in our SMB, but it was inevitable that we’d eventually grow out of it as time and trips moved on.

While scrolling for options on a sleepless night, a ray of hope came across the screen, a listing in CAN. Never heard of a 20’ RV! AND, I couldn’t find any info about the vehicle listed. SO I immediately sent the seller a PM with some questions and a very high level of interest. Turns out, I was the 3rd in a very long line (possibly close to 100+?). As the seller patiently and methodically went down the list investigating options of his own, I realized we had a 3-4hr conversation about the RV for sale, travel, other rigs and family. I explained to him “I will do things to this rig people can only dream about!!” He was (and STILL is) an incredible guy whom is the most knowledgeable person on the planet in a lot of things, but most definitely all things BIGFOOT RVs.

I flew into CAN a few months later to pick her up then drive her across the border onto American soil. I am sure I could write a book on this whole experience, but as I try to keep it brief, I find myself thinking of all the incredible memories I (we) have had ever since the first time I put her into D on the column!!

I didn’t need a plan or any prints. I had already had a VISION of what I wanted this rig to look like, how I wanted it to perform. I was just a matter of logistics on the steps of the process to get her there.

We built this rig with the intention of the forever travel vehicle. GO anywhere, DO anything, at the drop of a hat! AND, for a very long time, that’s exactly what it was for my wife (and I) plus our 2 children.

Here we are 7yrs later with countless memories of our own, and almost every dream box checked off! From the sleepless nights of building, and planning to the trips to vendors and craftsmen. Travels thru the sub-zero temps, snow cover grounds with high elevations to hot dry desserts of endless sand and the views up/down the coastlines . . . .The whole experience has been a full on epic journey. We added about 40K miles to the block over our course. And whether it be paved road, washboard side roads or full on 4WD I can almost recall every minute of every mile. There was nothing better than diving thru the night with the LEDs in full effect (which would basically turn it into day) totally submerged in an audio book and one of my kids would come whisper in my ear, “what state are we in??”, only for me to reply “I’m not really sure yet, but I’ll watch the sun come up over there?!” It was the most efficient and cheapest way for us to explore the entire country over the past years. And every amount of $$$ spent on the build, on the road, or at our destinations was money very well spent!!! Memories made, amazing people met, incredible experiences from wildlife to car accidents and aiding those with catastrophic failure.

If you are still questioning how rare these rigs are. This is an conversation I dug up via email from the previous owner:

“It was kinda interesting, the next guy in line is in BC right by the bigfoot factory and he said he was on a tour of the bigfoot factory in the mid 90's and test drove one of these "mini bigfoots" and him and his wife loved it so much that he asked bigfoot if he could buy one and they said no, that they were for the Japanese market only. He also said he has since then only seen two in person there in southern BC, and that he has never in the 20 years seen one for sale.”

NICE! Like most, I was always on the look just to spot one via internet, and possible buy as a "just in case" backup. Tracked down 1 of the overseas rigs at one point a few years ago. I could get past the reverse layout and I could re-run all the Japanese electrical to domestic 110. Getting out of the RV cabin into traffic with steps and kids . . . . .was one was hard pill to swallow but adaptable. The show stopper for me (with the reverse layout that yours are), was backing up and/or going in reverse thru every dump station to take care of stowed waste waters.
I am sure you will have no problem selling these to a creative buyer!! Good luck with the sale, 2x!!

This is awesome!! PS. Not to hijack the thread or anything, but for anyone that misses out on the above rig - I have TWO of these rare Bigfoot 20s that I will be offering up for sale soon. One 7.3 Powerstroke, one 460 Gas V8. PM me for more info. Note: They are both RWD and very stock compared to the beast above.
