Don't know if anyone has mentioned it yet, but the siding on the big slide is delaminating, I can see the bubbles. This is a big problem and needs to be addressed before it gets really bad. You have aluminum framing so that is good but the rest can rot out if not dealt with. I think there might be a few more spots, hard to tell for sure on a video. And that soggy spot just inside the door. It is going to need some work real soon to keep it in nice shape.

The Duonic transmissions like to cause headaches on these, especially the earlier ones 2011-2013. Sick rig! though would be a bummer to have to end up having that tranny AND transfer case replaced ( They are a combined unit on these trucks ) - so make sure it's been serviced / software updated, etc.!

You have a lot more usable space for the same footprint with the cab-over design. Add the slide-out and it's an even bigger advantage. I think the Jeep config missed the mark when it didn't do any kind of over-cab sleeper. It seemed like the natural thing to do but they crammed everything into a cube that sits higher than the cab.

Phil she's down to mob draw backs are if it breaks down as towing a mild head ache without another truck and getting stuck is a whole new dimension but honestly as others said a shorty Jeep n it's a major step up for you comfort wise and just a better set up for you as your not camping for mobile living

@largemarge16036 ай бұрын
@matt, One of our caravan chums experimented with a factory RecreateVehicle. We all full-time live-aboard home-built HouseTrucks, so this was a new experience for everybody. . On a Baja beach, the slide motor smoked. We extracted the slide, inverted it, and glued counter-top laminate to the bottom. . Installed, it slides across the carpet nicely. A pair of barrel-bolt gate-latches hold it in position. A pair of jacks support it while extended.
@lisam45036 ай бұрын
Nice rig but I am not a fan of slideouts! They give you more room but also represent one more thing to give you an eventual problem. Being more offroad centric I would think the extra bumps and chassis twisting would speed up their failing and leaking water in. Big step up though from the Jeep in comfort and room.

That thing would be near perfect without the slide outs... it's crazy that you can't access much of the living area without sliding the sides out, the whole point of these things is having living space that doesn't require setup. I would keep looking, find one that just has a solid shell so you'll be happier long-term

I've been in my Sprinter campervan now for about 4 months. If I gotta take a dump after parking in a parking lot...I can. Or cook up a dinner for the family. Although the slide outs expand at camp, so many times I need to get into the back to grab something or to remain Stealth without having to get out of the vehicle.
