This truck has had a very special treatment in its build and maintenance having any issues whether mechanical, chassis, bodywork or anything functional dealt with immediately and thoroughly. I have never seen a truck this age in such great condition and with such good systems on board.
The slide out aluminium roof tent reveals its own large deck and roof seats is fast an easy to operate, offering amazing views wherever you go with a super comfortable sleep in the Badlands pop up roof tent. The solar system has been designed to easily charge 2 electric bicycles and run the fridge and lighting and other charging needs year round. With a smart split charge system both house lithium batteries can be fully charged by the trucks engine very quickly too. This truck has already travelled extensively and is more than ready to travel the world in style and comfort again and again. It is highly capable off road and a great cruiser on road, happily sitting at 60mph all day long @15MPG
