Haters gonna hate - but I like it. Kudos to the guy for building his ideal mobile home/office/holiday house. I can see why you like it Mark.

I just want to see him back it down the boat ramp to launch the tinny.

I also like how it's got 2 x 60L water tanks, plus a dedicated 90L drink tank. Think how much beer you could cart in that!!! (prob around 90L...)

Cheers,
Matto :)

Not a dirty old Kenworth, might as well have a (insert offensive brand of 4wd).

If I won the lotto I might setup a b double with a Volvo tug. A trailer is living and b is for the critters, DMax and camper. Then we wouldn't need a house sitter if we want to go away!

How sad is that? I've already put our's on the drawing board, but a V8 Scania instead (just to stand out from the crowd ;D). Living quarters in the A, garage in the B. But awfully hard to fit a 4wd, camper and tinny in the B and keep it under 19m overall length for general access, non B double routes. Be slightly better off with a rigid truck and pig trailer, but that wouldn't be as cool as saying you had a BD motor home  :cup:


Yes very sad how much thought I have put into it, considering the lotto win would be the only way to pay for it  :'(

Forgot about Scania, would have to test both to see which was the best for comfort! If it was a lotto win you could have all sorts of mechanics to stack all the gear and keep it short. Just have to think outside the box!

Getting SWMBO a MC license will be the biggest hurdle for me
