Should I BUY this Dream Expedition Vehicle Truck Camper?!

MESSAGE TO THE HATERS - you all don't understand...being in a small truck living space wears on you. ALOT. Go out and live in a small Jeep camper or topper full-time for a decade and let know how you feel. Your back will be jacked, you don't always get good sleep, it becomes annoying to have to pack up your entire sleeping space every single time you move your truck, the setup time alone can sometimes be 30 minutes to an hour...do that 1000 times over 5 years and you'll get sick of it, you are constantly cooking outside rain/snow/high winds, you only dig catholes to use the restroom...sometimes in the rain and snow, showering is almost nonexistent. After a while, this will wear down even the most hearty individual. The reality is if you want to be on the road full-time for the rest of your life, you're going to need a rig that provides a better living experience. Phil can easily take a dirt bike with him to go mob trails and come back to camp to relax in his comfy Fuso with all the creature comforts of home. Can't wait to check out this rig in person!

Do it man! We have three slide outs and go crazy off-road. Five years now!

Dude, that's a one of a kind bada$$ RV!!❤❤

That's cool, the slides are in and u can still get to ur bed. That's definitely a pro!

Yea this is perfect balance for your off road adventure needs an your comfort living needs get er done champ 💯

He looks pretty dang happy with it if you ask me 🤷🏻‍♂️😂

Go for it! Keep in mind you could always build an off road trailer & haul a side by side with you. That rig would hardly even notice the trailer. Then you could keep your fun off roading going. Only even better knowing you don’t need to drive the off road toy home.

It’s huge! Lots of space to grow

4x4 Chinook is possibly a better option for you in my opinion. I’m building my first one now. Thanks for all the years of inspiration.

I've put a ton of miles behind the wheel of a Fuso - we had one that we used as a "chase" / pit truck for our desert racing program. Honestly bro, they suck - both on highway and off. Sure, it looks kinda cool, but there are wayyy better options out there for a light 4x4 livable style RV. I'd look around at different options..

I love the earth cruiser style camper! Looks like a great evolution into a more sustainable full time lifestyle. I’ll bet you’ll get a dirtbike to pair with this baby for mobbing purposes 😉

Dude that is so you, and Happy Belated Birthday!

The rv style really makes the inside warm and cozy,which is nice feeling when out on any adventure

Here is another idea! I was kinda on same path as you. Had a Sunrader 4x4, sold for good cash, kept a 1st gen tacoma for mobing with 80,s rtt, got a ram 3500 and 25’ desert fox toy hauler for motorcycles, kayaks, e-bikes and ton of space! Your Fuso is slow and ya cant carry anything! Trust me get a toy hauler big diesel truck and a first gen tacoma, best of both worlds!! My channel has vids of both my setups. You will thank me later

Do it! Those things for what they are, are very reliable engine wise, parts are pretty readily available and cheap. Inuswd to drive a commercial izuzu one for work and it never left me stranded

I love it! What an incredible rig. Life is too short to not be happy. None of us are guaranteed a tomorrow. I say get it! I mean, that smile on your face as you drive it like a bus driver is priceless.

The section where you are thinking out loud about things..... What I wanted then and there. What you wanted for years. Wanted to build it for so long vs wanting to keep it for so long. These are very insightful things to consider for everyone. Years ago Phil, you made a comment on Timmy's channel (Truck House Life) about 'why' also comes to mind. And in this context, why sell the Jeep build? Why go bigger with this truck? Does the big truck feel like something you want to keep for so long? How long? See yourself in the truck for 10+years? How important is the fast wheeling of the Jeep? Cost of operating the big truck vs jeep? Places you can go or can't with the big truck? These questions are also what I'm going through for my own build out and there are really difficult trade offs. Hope you make a choice that keeps you happy for the next 10years. 2035 is not that far off. Happy trails Phil!

Slides on anything would be a deal breaker for me. I have learned my lesson.

Every setup has strengths and weaknesses. Spacious and comfortable or small and living outside. Heavy and tall or light and nimble. You have to decide which are important to you, and those importances may change at any particular stage of life. Only you can decide your priorities. And if it does not work out you can sell it.

Do it mate. You live in it full time, this will be more useful day to day. It will limit some of your adventures but how often do you use the hardcore offroad option
