Love this setup! One change I would make is to make the cassette toilet box slide under the twin bed doubling as a seat for the work table.
@CodyBlack455 ай бұрын
Big advantage with the ambulance builds over the box trucks being that they make them to be so durable. You could roll it and everything would still be fine.

Man, thats sweet. Ive purchased a 1 ton van ambulance and i own a 02 ford excursion 1 ton with load assist, with a 7.3, 4x4. We will be transfering all running gears over to the ton ambulance so we can have a more versatile and stronger machine. Capable of camping or living comfortably. Van is a 2004 so there will be some changing for the 6.0 to 7.3 power stroke diesel.

Over two decades full-time live-aboard. . 1968, at 16yo, I left high-school for the trades program at the local junior-college. Welder-fabricator. 1970, I fabricated titanium components for submarines. 2023, I bid on a contract fabricating tungsten surgical components... us$250 hourly, plus us$300 per diem. They are happy with my hourly, countered at two-fifty per diem... ... although we live a ten-minute walk away from the shop.

@Down2Mob I know of 10 companies that invested in them back in the early 2000's and they still have several not running sitting around out back that became far to expensive to have the engine repaired on after 150k. And yet I have 6 different 94 to 97 Cummins powered Dodge trucks that all run and drive. The 7.3 reliability record is WAY better than the 6.0 but it has nothing on a 12 valve Cummins except that it is more difficult and expensive to repair.
