    I saw this truck at a campground in Banff I was staying in. I remember it so well as I am in LOVE with the HUGE side window. VERY well thought out!!!

      Oh wow! Thanks for mentioning this. Very cool.

    I really enjoyed seeing your lovely Dolly, and hearing about the fantastic adventure you're having with her. A tad smaller, but my wife and I have covered the same ground with a highly customized Westfalia Syncro. Traveling in such a capable 4WD camping vehicle opens possibilities that are unimaginable for a massive motorhome. What's the point of traveling if docking a highway cruise ship at an RV park is the same cultural experience over an over again? Happy trails.

      Thank you so much! We agree and love being able to get to the wild places. Your Synchro sounds amazing.

    Enjoy every minute of it, this was a dream I could not afford. just a bit of information Unimogs can come with a faster transaxle I believe it takes the speed up to 65mph 70kph. Just remember you are never lost just taking the route god has planned for you.

      love the idea, but if you dont really need the capeability of the unimog, go for a axor (also mercedes truck, but better base for a not ultrahard 4x4 camper

  • @ralfsimon9629
    @ralfsimon9629 Год назад +2

    Did you ever consider changing from gas to diesel heating?

    • @dollysdiary160
      @dollysdiary160 Год назад +1

      Good question. We have propane for cooking so we’re not completely reliant on one fuel source.
      I’d been told that diesel heaters need to run continuously otherwise they start to clog up with soot. I had this happen on our previous Unimog. Because the box is highly insulated it should soon get up to temp then shut off the heater.
      Oh - the gas heater also provides out hot water too 👍

    • @dollysdiary160
      @dollysdiary160 Год назад +1

      It comes under the 7.5 tonne rule - above which you need a Class II HGV licence. We are over 7.5t so I took my HGV test back in Nov 2021 👍

      Sorry Peter but it’s a propane heater made by ALDE in Sweden but they sell them worldwide.

      Man, you're not even comparing apples with oranges here. You're comparing an apple with a raspberry. The Toyota is a great vehicle, but your comparison is wrong from start to finish. Just look at the dimensions and the off-road possibilities. The UNIMOG has big advantages there.
