    Dude. That is a good and propper home on wheels. This bus doesnt even cound as a tiny home.
    This is a propper mobile home that has everything a normal home has . .. .and more. .
    But seriously, your house noy only looks and feels perfect in every way but it is inspirational, that makes it a piece of art, does it not?
    I have had a look at my fair share of tiny homes/van builds/ mobile, schoolie, stealthy places to sleep over the past few years and this house on wheels has been properly thought out. One could live in your for ever and never miss or want for anything. . . .
    Thanx for sharing

    Blessings:)
    P.S. im super jealous that i am a poor South African that will never be able to own something like that. You are trully blessed :)

      Durable, not powerful for sure. Driven a few commercial 7.3's (different than the ones in pickups) and can't say I was ever quick getting anywhere. Since he has a top speed of 55, if he really likes that thing he could always swap in a diesel and trans from any of the light duty trucks from the big 3. Every 3/4 ton diesel truck makes close to a 1000ft lbs and 450hp now with a minimum of 6 forward gears, would really change how driving that thing around feels. Would be effortless and cruise at 80mph with no problem.
