A real offroad vehicle
Good for you, sad for us - we have to sell our home-on-wheels for personal reasons. It’s an Expedition truck that gets “thumbs up” at every traffic light and even Police and Soldiers have a smile on their faces when it’s passing by.
It got a living space in the cabin of about 130 square feet and is made for big guys. The clearance inside is 80.31 inches.
Built in 1979. Chassis MAN, engine KHD (Klöckner-Humboldt-Deutz), axels by Mercedes and converter clutch/transmission by General Motors. Meant to be an universal vehicle for military uses. The cabin has been custom made in 2016-2018, so it’s a German quality car. There is no motherboard and no chip inside – so can’t corrode. It’s an air cooled engine which can be repaired almost everywhere. 12.625 litres (3,335 gal) Diesel V8 engine - 6-gear shifting with permanent 6 x 6 drive and three differentials. Total possible weight 19 ton. Michelin XZL 16.00R20 big wheels, a 5 ton winch. You can be sure I added a lot of features. The cabin has a separate shower (23.6x31.5) and permanent toilet room. A big number of inside and outside storages. Equipped with a big fridge and freezer, a gas oven. It’s a sleep “four +”. Floor and wall heating and inside wood-stove for cold days. 2 aircons. Mastervolt electric system. Solar panels. Windpower System is pre-installed. 1,400 l (370 gal) Dieseltanks, 800 l (211 gal) fresh Water - 2 fitersystems and UV-generator, 200 l (53 gal) wastewatertank, 200 l (53 gal) fecal tank .
You know it’s a real off-road car, so everything is made to survive big bumps and even climbing rocks - that means it’s not like a shiny polished RV with a slide out, but spectacular side openings and flexible back wall and total roof opening above the masterbed - which makes indoor living = outdoor feeling.
Another big feature to mention is : the car is bulletproof. And the gunner’s hatch is still in function. Sitting on the driver cabins roof there is an additional ATV CFMoto CForce 450S - it’s included. The truck has two cranes. Used about only 100.000 km (62.000 mls).
Car comes with about 500 kg (1,100 lb) original spare parts, several tools on request.

The car will be deliverable about the beginning to middle of 2025, as right now we still travel. We’re heading from Mexico towards the United States. We surely will not leave out Baja California for kitesurfing, where we are now, January 2025.
About the price. We will start to offer for $350,000. The value at completition in 2018 was about 960,000 USD - but as you and we know - time passes by.
One funny thing at the end : you surely know the movies Mad Max? The one “Fury” got a MAN KAT 1 driving with a mass of boom boxes attached to it. We thought to drive it to the “burning man”, but we are not sure about being able to make it anymore. So we know it would be part of the show.
Actually the car is located in Mexico, easy to start “The American trip”, or be transferred to the United States.
