Ultimate Transformation: Military Truck to Luxury Apartment Tour [Adventure Ready 007]

[@2URLex]

The motorcycle rigging is one of the coolest things I’ve seen in a long time. This Rig is Amazing.

[@drivetheglobe]

My favorite part of the rig now that I have spent time with it on the road.

[@nunziobusiness1509]

Nice bike, too.

[@smokiedavinci]

I thought his last rig was amazing, this new rig is absolutely spectacular. Congrats to Mike, I'm happy for him.

[@FilCanJay]

I think it's a work of art. Mike needs to write a book on his adventures and add in the schematics of the vehicle.

[@TheOffroadCamper]

I think I’ve seen his last three rigs I really enjoy how he improves upon the experience and each rendition. I’m also jealous of the capability and the adaptability.

[@AizonEligenne]

If I had money I would go the same route.. awesome

[@texaspinzgauer]

I've been watching Mike's build video series so this came as a surprise that it's all done. Having now seen it "finished", the build videos will still be useful to see. A fantastic accomplishment, especially given the compressed time line to build it! Very impressive!

[@allantaylor3288]

Wow what an amazing rig, its an absolute credit to you not only building it but also having the vision to design this incredible home on wheels ❤

[@Benzy670]

God, I wish I had the money for a rig just like this. Man's living the dream if you ask me!

[@reinmansmith]

Wow what a fantastic piece of kit…. as a motorcyclist that garage is the perfect icing on the cake!! 😊👍

[@thejohnhend]

Absolutely amazing rig. Would be a lifelong dream to tool around in something like this. Only thing I’d change is the ceiling tiles.

[@norkisserrano]

This is by far the best Truck camper as far as functionality and the interior layout is concerned… plus he build it in 3 months? Unreal.

[@warrenjohnknight.9831]

Definitely a dream home for me and my cat 🐈, 😊😊😊.

[@WILDFOXEXPEDITION1984]

Awesome build very beautiful ceiling 😍😍

[@jamestiberiuskirk5994]

What an awesome vehicle. Thank you for doing the video

[@hankcuccina5260]

One of the best conversions.

[@Bugoutvehiclesuk]

amazing work

[@Angel-hd2rs]

So much nicer than most vans, trucks, campers, etc. Has everything one might need and then some as well as being wide enough two people can "pass" in the hall at the same time. Not claustrophobic at all. Happy new year!

[@239Sheepdog]

Wow perfect setup with an independent dry shower, great water capacity, motorcycle garage, etc, you can tell a lot of thought went into this. I want one!

[@z.a-c_h]

This guy lives the life I wish I had 😂

[@hockeycop10]

Take my money!!!! Perfection!!!

[@compimagaol]

Nice build. Thanks for sharing.

[@jbainent]

Nice work Kevin! Love to see you mix it up with fun videos like this!

[@Meandbroafter2]

THE BEST RV EVER.

[@kevinthorne9892]

I ❤ This Rig...It's Awesome 🎉🎊 Only 1 Addition though...a Wood Stove for Winter time...

[@ironboy3245]

no, especially not if its something like this with no ventilation(also where would he store the wood?). A heater would be a acceptable substitution. but if i had to guess that AC probably works as a heater as well

Amazing rig.

[@landyandy4x4]

super cool ,he's a fantastic guy I met him in Baja last week ..

[@LifestyleOverland]

Very cool!

[@nunziobusiness1509]

The interior design is amazing. If I were to buy this rig, I would not change anything.

[@Shadow65...]

Hell ya!!! Let’s go

[@damaunu]

Nice work!

[@bossmann7592]

thx for the walk around!! great build!! happy new year!! safe travels❣

[@tunccan65]

The 3 months 18 hrs. working to convert from an army truck to camper outstanding. One could work a week or 2 max 3,4. Love and passion with determination huge planning and dexteriousness otherwise could not be able. How much does this cost without labor? And labor 18hrs x 90=1800 approxiametely 14 dollars for an hour 8000 USD plus 5-6K for the buying cost of the vehicle plus parts 35.000 USD? Could worth I believe 60K in 2020 before pandemic!❤

[@escalade78]

Wowwww....legitimately Badass!!! Best Overland rig I have seen yet!

[@matthewbrewster4647]

wow what a Rig! its like a giant Luxury Range Rover ! Really nice design, love the living space the kitchen and bedroom elements and the Garage is a gamechanger. The way the gentleman put a "chase" permanently in the living space so he can install runs from the garage to the living space is an innovation ive long dreamed about, although in my design iwas tyhinking more of a bulkhead,but yeah what a cool smart innovative design element. I love seeing thje state of the art being advanced by people not specifically in the trades but excelling beyond compare anyway. I find it inspiring and im in the trades! Bravo to you Sir! Cheers thank you for showing this great work of art and living.

[@alphatruckhouse8223]

yes sir 👍 ~peace~

[@Hipporider]

The bike lift is impressive. I wonder if you can buy them ready made?

[@drivetheglobe]

Yes, Neo-dyne Loaders out of Netherlands

[@charleshicks3492]

That rig is great, when can I try it🤣🤩⭐️😎

[@CraigG21]

That rig is sweet!

[@lawrencehockett8179]

Outstanding!

awesome build!

[@glennj6465]

Wow that would be my dream truck few tweaks but not much ❤❤❤❤

[@warrenjohnknight.9831]

The bike lift would definitely fit my mobility scooter, ha ha ha ha 😊😊😊.

[@Geon-Harris]

i would not be afraid of the zombie apocalypse after this if i own this rig.. nice built and i love the bathroom

[@adamsyclone7409]

Wow that is the most perfect overland iv seen and the bike rack dam that is cool

[@TerraFirmaX]

I seen you rolling west bound I40 just past Amarillo, Tx around thanksgiving time or earlier. I was in my semi

[@TheFabricOfReality]

I saw this rig near Cabo pulmo a couple days ago Epic how big it is

[@drivetheglobe]

Yep, on the East Cape Baja now.

[@visionquest520]

Nice mike i saw #3 , this looks amazing 😊 bout time you named it.

[@RandomButBeautiful]

this is one heck of a build.

[@saradutoit8239]

What a cool build.

[@kennethpedales]

Que tipo más agradable, que vehículo más impresionante, me encantó el garaje y el sistema de subir una moto, que por cierto es pesada, más de 200 kilos, muchas gracias por enseñarlo.

[@sannsummit]

Amazing

[@marclaughlin2008]

Wow, that is awesome!

[@nasosnasos8054]

Price?

[@brunnie]

WOW!! What a build. Thanks for the lookie-see.

[@tomekz4632]

Great truck. The construction is so unusual US ;) In the EU, UNICAT makes 8x8 bodies. I recommend seeing it because the interior has a different concept. Now they make Dodge RAM.

[@rd4660]

You know, I've never seen these huge rigs at the end of an off road trail, only at the beginning.

[@mattmacpherson1033]

Awesome build. Where do you find a truck as a start for this?

[@LifestyleOverland]

I've seen them on Expedition Portal Classifieds, Facebook Marketplace, and Military Auction sites 👍

[@christopheranderson8619]

WOW! Amazing build - Defiantly done right!

[@markw1247]

Maybe I missed it, but did he say what the max speed is?

[@drivetheglobe]

With highway gears, 3.07 ratio it can cruise around 65mph realistically.

[@SeeChadRun]

What an amazing rig!

[@bradleybunt6556]

Dope setup!

[@seib6324]

Now that's overlanding my wife would approve of

[@moflexmusicinc.6060]

As fry would say “ here !! , take my money 💰!!!” lol Dude can you build me a rig this is fire 🔥

[@devondrayton4006]

I followed behind one of these to Rosevelt Lake in Alaska and his tire ruts were so big in the soft road that it kind of made me mad. Also he got stuck and destroyed the poor road. Definitely shouldn’t have been there in my opinion. It was cool to see it though. He was traveling pretty fast too which was impressive.

[@buysncharge]

Jealous. It made you jealous.

[@captbob1494]

Good job mate

[@J.Young808]

I saw the beginning of the build, wait maybe the one prior since he had the Unimog before. Nope I saw this one as I remember the name.

[@pyeitme508]

WOW!

[@abc-ed1nr]

What’s that octagon material on the doors? Is it sound deadening? Where can I get some for mine!?!?

[@ShaunLang]

I used to buy things and build things with this mindset. I have finally realized that there is nowhere to actually use this stuff anymore. Not in the US anyway. I bought a dual sport motorcycle thinking i'd like to go cross country on dirt. There is no dirt anymore. Wanted to take a long 4-5 day trip on 4 wheelers, no trails long enough anywhere, not that allow camping. Sure you can take it down to south america or africa somewhere, but then you become a target.

[@bobfarrell6510]

Happy New Year

Taj mahal on your screen this is in india 🇮🇳 ❤

[@snorttroll4379]

great but make the next machine with a low instep with variable height springs or whatever so a motorcycle can be driven in easily. also make it possible to walk from the garrage to the reast of the house. also slap solar on the side because of snow and low sun in norther and southern places. also make the driver cabin accessible from the house because of comfort and bears and stuff. also have a totally enclosed waste system. poop gets burnt or turned into biogas first. water gets filtered and osmotically filtered and drunk again. perhaps by boiling it if you need for marketing purposes .distilling. but multiple filters including osmois and remineralisation should be it. do some uv and silver too.

[@snorttroll4379]

have you managed to remove all the rain noises?

It's ironic that the thumbnail for this video describes this truck as "Apocalypse Ready" when the truck probably gets 6 miles to the gallon.

Keep in mind, it's not just a truck but a nearly self sufficient home. All you need is a water source at your destination... while you await the end of the apocalypse of course.

In a nutshell. Tread Lightly overboard. Angry locals. Angry overlanders. Because public dirt roads demolished. Roads get repaired and eventually closed. But not for the so-called "Fauna and Flora Preservers", happy for the unpaved roads now solely open for them, the locals and probably some with an expensive permit. Nice rig though.
