    Yeah, I'm having trouble finding funds for the LMTV cover is already an issue... I should say funding cheaper shipping is the issue not the money. I thought you picked that up? And from what we discussed last time, the price is well out of my price range.

    Thanks, I am using a four point mount similar to Rob's however I think it will be similar to the unicat mount. quickfarms, I'm keeping my eye out for insulated containers. Depending on if I use a container or a home made box, will greatly effect the pop up roof. Right now I am planning a pop...

    Possible change in direction... I realize this is in the 5 ton mod thread but I'm considering changing directions with my Expedition truck. No it didn't die I just have had other things on my mind. If I didn't already post I lurk over on Expedition portal under the same user name. Since I...

    Expedition truck...

    I don't know about others but I plan to not bring my $#!T home. Keeping a separate grey tank will let me dump it more often then finding a proper waste dump for the black tank. But I also plan to use a composting toilet so, I won't have a black tank. Not much of an expedition vehicle if I...

    I hesitated to post not wanting to get off thread..but then I remembered I was the OP...LOL Anyways to deal with the expandability of the truck. If keeping it in tact with possibility of just improving the insulation and making it a one man job. I was tossing around ideas in my head of making...

    I'm actually trying to take the expandability and work with it. Thing is all I have is pictures or numbers, I haven't been in one. So the box maybe really uncomfortably, I don't know. My two thoughts are; A) Modernizing the panels into something a little more weather temperature friendly...

    First off the M820 at IMP is way over priced. Secondly your comments are welcome, that's sort of the point of a forum to express and offer different points of view. I agree if I didn't have an affluence to MV's I would probably be using a class 6 or 7 or if I could afford what I wanted a class...

    Plastic can be far superior to steel and aluminum given the fact that it's flexible. It's all about the correct kind of plastic. For example High-Density Cross-Linked Polyethylene tanks are 20 times stronger than steel. They have no welds or seams thus they will not split/crack when twisted...

    $850 and they are made in the US They are not as easy to use as a regular toilet but you can go weeks without dumping the main tank. The liquid waste tank only holds 2.2 gallons that's about a nights worth of beer... My only concern is disposing of the liquid waste. Most customers just walk...

    My Heartland Sundance has a full shower, pretty nice too. And to tell you the truth having only 8 gal of hot water limits the showers. Most of the campgrounds we've used have shower facilities. So it hardly gets used. But I agree it's nice to have a toilet and sink.

    I was actually thinking along the lines of a composting toilet. Nature's Head Composting Toilets - The Ideal Waterless Toilet for Your Boat, RV, Cabin, Big Rig or Yurt! As my intention is to camp where others are not I have to be self sufficient. Which means collecting rain water and...

    Not always I can think of a few people that are the problem because they lack understanding of the system. Without them the system would work perfectly...

    Logistic Readiness Squadron but we usually refer to them as supply. It's their system I hate not the people.

    Expedition truck...

    Yeah Eldgen got it right I wasn't refering to anyone in particular. At least not on SS. Most of us, know what it takes to work for a living. I wonder if the inflated prices the DOD pays for stuff has effected the economy in the negative. Back to the subject. I don't think I'm going to...

    You won't like the $115000 price tag though... Sometimes I wonder what people do for a living... seriously! Selling new york, these peoples rents are higher than my house cost!. All I want is a truck... I wonder if anybody has made their own MECC..?

    Those are bad a$$ I was looking at them but they are faily expensive. And you still end up with the same issues as the M820. You can't have perminantly mounted fixtures in expansion part. I'm still doddling ideas. And I still have to sketch a truck for another members plans. I'm sure...

    I'm not sure they are indentical but they certainly are close. I'm actually trying to find interior dimensions of the M820. From the look of the platform its close to 8x8. I'm not sure what that box is... Now I can't stop picturing a mobile carpentry work station... Only downside to the...
