Is that Oregon??? N.Cal Maybe???
Wherever it is, that is one amazing truck you've built yourself there. I've always thought (being an EMT/Firefighter) that a 4wd bus(sorry, ambulance to most folks) would be sweet base. Once your got lifted it looks like a whole different, super bad...It's nice... real nice. I love to see rigs of that size and nature crawling, it's such an accomplishment to get a big full-size-plus rig into some spots. Plus once you get there it looks like you have all the comforts of home and a very insulatable cabin that'll keep you comfy through the cold nights. Awsome build.

Mucho Gusto! The pics are Idaho, Oregon, Nevada, and Norcal.. She got a 600 mile test drive on day 1, then a nice clearance test down Usal (err, a nice de-shining of the new paint)
Cheers and thanks! I'll assist however I can if you go that route.
Holidays and work just destroy free time.. but a little progress has been made! First off I gambled a little and picked up one of these on Craigslist for 200$! :
I know I'm stupid, but it's working great so far so I can't complain. I needed the plasma especially to cut plate for the upcoming pop-top, bumpers/front exo, and storage boxes.
Actual progress has been limited to new lift blocks in the rear. It was sagging in *** a little under the 5500#'s. The difference is noticeable in the pics below:

I must say, I do like the black stripe mid way up. Sharp looking rig. Outstanding concept.

This is very inspiring.
I'm curious to see what you do with the pop up idea.
This is a mock up of what I was thinking of doing.
Do you have plans for water? Shower? Sink? Bed?
Now, THIS, I want. What is that vehicle?
