U500 Lifting Roof Camper

About
This is the text you need to work on: For sale is our much-loved Mercedes Unimog U500 Lifting Roof Camper. The mileage will continue to go up as we take short trips. Just back from over 500 miles in Utah and not a bleep mechanically speaking. We have enjoyed exploring the West from our home in Denver Colorado. The truck is literally a condo on very big wheels and as I always say, “The truck can go anywhere – it is the courage of the driver that actually decides where it goes”. We have purchased an expedition yacht and decided to make our next adventures on the water. The truck has been regularly serviced and maintained by the top U500 Unimog mechanic in the country – Terry Lee Enterprises in La Junta Colorado. Rob is happy to offer driving training at Buyers’ expense. If you have never driven a Unimog this is highly recommended as it does take some getting used to. You are as high as a semi cab with the same responsibility for braking. If needed he can assist with shipping overseas at the buyer’s expense also. We are located at the foot of the Rocky Mountains which makes for a great location to start a journey in the Spring.
Mog is Offered at $300,000. Offers considered.
