Dude, your excitement in this new rig is evident in these videos. I think your channel is going to blow up again! Happy Days are here again, let the good times roll Fuso Style!
Fuso is awesome, get a 2 door rubi and tow behind the mother ship. Love your channel !
exactly what i said
All that matters is does the dog love it! ❤😁❤
That’s a sick camper 🤙 I would mob it!
this feels like it would bring the older feel of the down2mob channel back which i think is what we have all been waiting for, aside from our wants, the comfort you would have is unmeasurable, hope to see this in future videos
The Duonic transmissions like to cause headaches on these, especially the earlier ones 2011-2013. Sick rig! though would be a bummer to have to end up having that tranny AND transfer case replaced ( They are a combined unit on these trucks ) - so make sure it's been serviced / software updated, etc.!
Yes!!! Need this in your life!
That rig is so sick 👍
Fuso, hell yeah! It's amazing that it fits all the creature comforts in a rig that will still park easy. It handled off road better than I thought it would. Love it!
NICE! Fuso's are a lot of fun- we've been full time in ours just under a year now. Can't say we haven't had issues, but the ability to bring your house literally ANYWHERE is pretty neat. Enjoy!
This rig is nice. Tow a side by side and you have all you need.
I like how you guys mess with each other. Funny too.
That thing is so cool! Having the slide outs makes a huge difference.
The Fuso is definitely “Down 2 Mob”
I subscribed to this channel for the dodge mahal, and it’s been complete ass since it left. This rig brings back the same vibes.
I looked at this at Happy's place a while back. I love the combination of living space and off-road capability. I could live in it....
You live the best live ever bro what a machine is that congrats bro ❤
Awesome 👌 good luck with the new home!! 👍
Sick set up!!
How can you not Like it !! Pretty Awesome
Dude that beast is awesome u got off road capability with your house. Lol I would love to have one. Can't wait to see what u choose
Real cool set up!!
That would be fun. To drive as I really like being high up.
We built our ExpeditionVehicle on a 1996 Ford CF8000 commercial truck.
With air-horns, a lot of authority going down the road!
Looks like you're on the west side of Prescott this weekend. Maybe we'll see you around town tomorrow!
I say buy it. Mountain bike rack off the back maybe a dual sport also. Have a quick way to get supplies and giver. Build a step for your pup from kitchen to bed. Done
Loving the rig Brotha🤘
If you're Down2Spend, why not do a Super Duty with Carli suspension and an OEV (Hudson Bay popup or High Country hardside)? You'd get all the living space, inside shower, and still be able to mob
Awesome
Fuso FTW
Badass camper!
SOLD
buy it,if you can
Fuso's are easy to work on, their cab Tilts forward leaving the engine completely exposed to work on.
Hi, Phil Maby work out a trade if both are of equal value. Maby your friend is ready for a change of pace. . Everybody wins.
Does the living space have separate air conditioning?
Hello Phil and Corry 😊❤
I love the setup. Although, I sense a money pit and it doesn’t fit your style. You are hard on equipment and will have this torn up quickly.

@@hmmm2564 Uh, have you not watched any of his videos???
@@gman4726 yes and he is.looking for comfort
Definitely big enough for 3😮
You all know he has already bought the Fuso!
Can you do custom shocks for this?L just give it a bit more off-road capability?
Buy it
So what's the asking price for this rig?
that steering wheel is adjustable
You going to have start say Down to Roam!!Lol
buy it and head to south america !!
I think if you really like it so much you should buy it.
Bubba i can tell you this if you keep this thing and buy it but keep using the steering wheel to oull your self in your gonna be replacing the steering column and parts
How much solar? does it alternator charge? drinking water tank size? black? grey water?
I say buy it
buy this and then buy a two door JL to flat tow behind....your adventures will be AWESOME
You look so happy. Just need a 12” battery powered chainsaw with a 10’ extension.
Send it
The older you get, the more comfortability you want.
Might as well buy a Sprinter.
It might be a slick camper, but it just doesn't fit you. I think you need something a bit smaller and a little more nimble with 4x4 capabilities otherwise you will have to drag a 4x4 vehicle with you to be able to do King of the Hammers and other off reading adventures because I sure don't see you rock climbing in the Fuso.

What gas mileage do you get
Diesel engine.
About 12-15 hwy. Less offroad, probably 10-11
This guy must be a trust fund baby or something, theres no way this channel makes enough for him to build a 200k plus camper and have the money to do everthing else and travel. Or did he save a ton of money from some sort of amazing job?
ha ha none of our buisness though
Looks pretty cozy dude!
The fuso.
Adds value to your day to day life. And the joy of taking your home with you everywhere you go, and it feels more like a home. You and the fuso, it was meant to be.
When you can, share the specs with us...tire size, engine, water capacity, solar and battery info, etc.
Dude is buying this truck!
Looks and sounds like a done deal 👌 Give it a couple months, and some personal touches. You're going to really enjoy your new home. Reach out to your sponsors and dress her up !! Plus, she is going to enjoy it too. The FUSO appears to be "Down 2 Mob !"
That thing needs about $75K of love and it will be nice. The interior is pretty dated, maybe needs an interior swap. The slide outs worry me long term, money pit.
All of those cabover trucks suck. I hate driving them. Sitting right over the axle it's like driving a basketball.
Bro just get a four-wheel drive Ford van preferably with a leaf spring conversion
Buy it, I bought one already - I flat tow a Suzuki Samurai rock crawler
Phil I love you bro you got the best energy. I been down bad lately and your vids have really been helping me snap back to a positive mind
@kyle,
Lot of that going around.
Clodd does more good than he may realize.
Don't know if anyone has mentioned it yet, but the siding on the big slide is delaminating, I can see the bubbles. This is a big problem and needs to be addressed before it gets really bad. You have aluminum framing so that is good but the rest can rot out if not dealt with. I think there might be a few more spots, hard to tell for sure on a video.
And that soggy spot just inside the door.
It is going to need some work real soon to keep it in nice shape.
I think you need to buy it!
It will be extremely reliable but the second you need a part you will be effed
Dropped cheese always needs to be a donation to the canine companion.🎉
Five-Second Rule applies...
... unless you think you can win the scrimmage with the dogs...
...then you invoke the Ten-Second Rule!
It looks as if it could work, handles the off road sections better than expected. You just have to take it easy.
🤙🤙🤙🔧🛠️🔧🛠️🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🏁House on wheels.... and its Ready to Rock when u park. Setup time is 2 slideout rocker switches, I like that.
Badass vehicle. Sure, you will miss your jeep. But with the lifestyle you live, I think that Fuso is the perfect step up. Go for it! Very cool! Heck, ya could always get a short lighter weight jeep and tow it behind that rig!
It's the bomb. If you love it do it. Stage of life determines a lot
I would consider something with gooseneck/ 5th wheel or bumper pull trailer you could always unhook and use the truck for other things
You have a lot more usable space for the same footprint with the cab-over design. Add the slide-out and it's an even bigger advantage.
I think the Jeep config missed the mark when it didn't do any kind of over-cab sleeper. It seemed like the natural thing to do but they crammed everything into a cube that sits higher than the cab.
Eeayeah...
You really need to do some homework on a Fuso. Don't get me wrong, they're amazing Overlanding Vehicle's, they're great in all climates. They'll go just about every where that you can think of.
But I've got some bad news for you Sunshine. Fuso is shutting down their North America Operations, the first to go will be Sales. Parts and Service will be around for 7 or 8 more years.
It's like I said, you might want to look into before you buy on a whim...
U could always get a pop up
Have you smelled your pillow after not bathing for days? Your clothes. Shoes. They start to smell homeless. That is what soap does. Cleans things to smell good again. First thing I do in a day ..shower!!
Evidently you live in a sticks and bricks and rarely leave home. And your idea of roughing it would be a four star hotel. In the real world, daily showers are a luxury not a necessity.
@mike,
For over two decades full-time live-aboard, we shower every afternoon.
.
This requires getting to camp early afternoon...
... instead of Mad-Slasher Midnight.
.
Advantage:
* daylight walk-around of each rig in the caravan to check for hanging stuff
* supper and showers
* hardly ever camp on an ant-hill or under a wasp-nest.
Phil she's down to mob draw backs are if it breaks down as towing a mild head ache without another truck and getting stuck is a whole new dimension but honestly as others said a shorty Jeep n it's a major step up for you comfort wise and just a better set up for you as your not camping for mobile living
If the slides don't slide for whatever reason, then u have troubles obviously. But very comfortable and functional. Good luck with your decision.
Curious, do you carry a Rattlesnake vaccine for Kota, because she is free to roam around?? (Sorry, if this is a dumb question)
Haha. He wasted money on a Nissan . They use plastic gears in the transmission. All that weight he will be supporting transmission shops throughout the mid west.
did someone build this or did they come like this from the factory? anyone?
But a rhino liner paint job and a logo on the out side and she is home
That thing would be near perfect without the slide outs... it's crazy that you can't access much of the living area without sliding the sides out, the whole point of these things is having living space that doesn't require setup. I would keep looking, find one that just has a solid shell so you'll be happier long-term
I'd agree, even the 'luxury' RV manufacturers have issues with their slide-outs. I would never consider one on any type of vehicle.
Five years off-road with three slides. Nothing better. IMO.
@tj,
2003, we engineered our ExpeditionVehicle with 'primitive' in mind.
Zero gadgets to go wrong.
.
Naturally, we have zero slides.
.
Of course, the HostCamper could last decades without an issue.
It's all an experiment.
I've been in my Sprinter campervan now for about 4 months. If I gotta take a dump after parking in a parking lot...I can. Or cook up a dinner for the family. Although the slide outs expand at camp, so many times I need to get into the back to grab something or to remain Stealth without having to get out of the vehicle.
I hope you got this thing it’s so cool
Very cool but can you get parts for it easily.
Needs googly eyes in the spare tires.
I want more
Gonna need a bigger turlet.
That’s awesome man!
That thing is dope!
pretty cool
Enjoyed
Sweeeeeeet Fuso
Price?
If you get it a dual sport on a rack would be sick and a emergency transportation/Mob mobile. This thing is freaking awesome so much want over here 😂....A thought for the future, If you keep this one for years you can put a pass-through rooftop tent for your future kid or kids and not need to upgrade 😂
That Fuso is really cool. Dig the layout with all the windows.
I think my biggest concern would be the Slide Outs, specially in an off road vehicle.
