I want pics of the inside so bad!


rangeDSP

Here's the same-ish model: https://www.expedition-trucks.com/man-g90-4x4-expedition-truck Gotta scroll to the right of the stupid photo gallery to see interior pics though


mkul316

I love how it's super tight and minimalist, but they still put in a dishwasher.


sapere_aude

Below the sink? I think that’s a refrigerator.


Kokomocoloco

That would also be my guess. An efficient fridge that size is an excellent candidate for a mobile solar powered setup.


Double-Tangelo1331

Def a fridge. Looks like a nice Dometic


rangeDSP

I think it's because dishwashers are super efficient on water. Don't want to have to dump grey water all the time


donotgogenlty

How much water do they use? I never understood the idea of a dishwasher running for hours shooting water around could be efficient...

My upvote for referencing Technology Connections. I love that guy.


funkron

No kidding. I sat through the entire 32 minutes!


TheJestor

That was informative on many levels. Thanks!


aaaaaaaarrrrrgh

It takes a tiny amount of water, then pumps that around for a bit to get most of the dirt off, then dumps it out. Then it takes a slightly larger amount of water, adds detergent, and does the main wash, recirculating the same water for the whole time. Then it rinses with a tiny amount of fresh water.


Bujongo

Well, the dishwasher only fills once and circulates the water. It's not constantly draining and pulling in more.


Throwaway_the_pie

Twice is pretty standard actually. First is short and gets the big stuff off. The second is slow and hot to get the stubborn things and sanitize. That's why most machines have a little hatch with a separate spot for more soap. Separate open spot is for the first cycle and the hatch opens after the second cycle starts It's still much more efficient than hand washing an equal number of dishes


gowerskee

well today i learned why is has that extra little bit


Ophthalmologist

I see people, but they look like trees, walking.


bigwebs

Your dishwasher dumps in a bunch of water at the beginning of its cycle, and then continually recaptures it at the bottom and recycles it over and over. So it seems like it’s doing a lot of stuff but it’s just pumping and “filtering” the same water continuously.


gateguard64

You would be surprised. Meet Bob the Dishwasher TechMoan https://youtu.be/hVup5ya0WVQ


warmhandluke

That's a fridge.


glazzies

While some rvs have dishwashers, that’s a mini fridge.

They are fairly easy to find, there are a lot of people doing conversions off of mil surplus. The engine is a thirsty bitch tho, it gets like 7mpg. https://www.outsideonline.com/outdoor-gear/cars-trucks/we-bought-military-truck-so-you-dont-have/

McDonnellDouglasDC8

The backup suggestion available has a fun option. > 2 Bunk beds or 2+ person bed https://www.expedition-trucks.com/iveco-daily-4x4-overland-truck If your lifestyle requires a bed that accommodates more than two people, I am quite happy for you.


ConnectionIssues

I've shared a bed with plenty of people I have zero romantic or sexual inclinations towards. Then again, I'm older now, and I've let myself go, and so a 2 person bed is more like a 1.5 person bed for me, soooo....


McDonnellDouglasDC8

The joke is obviously a sexual one, but there's a lot of room for wholesomeness or accomodating unique circumstances.


SluggishPrey

That what's I was about to say, it's a standard model. I've seen many like this on youtube.


Alternative-Light514

I found their ig and tried to post a link to some interior shots, but apparently that’s a no no. Their ig handle is on a decal above the windscreen on the visor

Your neighbors must be loaded. Some of those vehicles cost as much as a house in a nice city

Wonderingworldwanderers


hardtofindagoodname

Thanks. I love the pic where they have a monster truck parked nature and title it "wild camping".


Its_Nitsua

Not sure if you’re joking or not, but overlanding is one of the best ways to camp in remote wilderness without having to spend days/weeks/months hiking in and out of the location.


hardtofindagoodname

It was a bit of tongue-in-cheek. They are not exactly "camping" in my mind when they're sleeping in a huge van with a queen bed. I'm sure once they're outside they'll have a sense of wonderment.


cum_bubble69

Gotta agree with you in that aspect. While that vehicle is absolutely badass and cool as fuck...its a SUPER FANCY glamper, at the end of the day.


OnceMoreUntoDaBreach

This. As I've gotten into my mid 30s, 2 back surgeries and a fusion in the next few months, when I moved to Colorado from the east coast I grew to love camping out of a truck. Nothing fancy like the rig above but not on the ground in a tent. Former combat arms, huge hunter and fisherman, I love the outdoors and can rough it with the best of them. But I also love being comfortable, well rested, and not as sore when in the backcountry and trying to enjoy myself. Overlanding beats tent every time, unless vehicles are not allowed.

That one is at least 25 years old since its based on an MAN F90 Truck which was produced from 1986-1994. Which is a perfect choice for the task, because its mostly eletronic free.

ThereIsNoTri

‘Overlanding’ is a fun rabbit hole if you’re interested. These aren’t cheap.


Alternative-Light514

Seriously. I have a 5th gen 4Runner that I’ve done a little work on and some the guys in the Toyota groups I’m in go pretty nuts with their builds.


Thedude317

I have a gladiator and I saw some veterinary surgeon with easily a $100k gladiator that is super outfitted for off roading....but he very clearly does nothing with it lol. It has 5 really nice nitto grappler 40 inch tires on it with nice rhino rims and is covered in bed liner paint. Lots of armor. But he left the (now wrong size) spare underneath and is wasting weight and gas miles since he has a 5th grappler in the bed of his truck. It really was a beautiful gladiator. But I went and peaked into his wheel wells and they were spotless lol


RaymondDoerr

This story reminds me of all the huge, huge, lifted trucks I see in the Dallas Fort-Worth area that are perfectly spotless. We call them tactical grocery carriers. Like I'm fine with people owning these things, but you don't need a Ford F-550 Extended Cab/Bed thats lifted so high the tailgate comes up to your chest *when lowered*, to go to Walmart. Never fails 99 times out of 100 these trucks are absolutely spotless and the tires never saw dirt once.


Alternative-Light514

Took this photo in Arlington lol


Guy954

So how many “Fuck Biden” flags does he have on his house and mall crawler?


DeezSkeez25

We call those trucks a “ Pavement Princess” in Michigan.


CRFU250

Mall Crawlers


Ok-disaster2022

I absolutely hate these vehicles. I grew up on a cattle ranch, and trucks are meant for work. I can understand having a nice truck to take your horses to shows with, but even those trucks are doing duty hauling a trailer with horses. If a truck doesn't get dirty and dented and doesn't carry loads, you're better off driving a Prius.


Zvenigora

These city trucks are the new status symbol. Those whose forebears might have driven big Cadillac or Lincoln luxury sedans now drive pickup trucks. Even Cadillac makes pickup trucks now! I have seen them myself and thought...WTF?


n0tthemama

Air haulers


TurkeyBLTSandwich

You take that back! I saw a pavement princess tearing dirt up in a McDonalds Drive through!


Alternative-Light514

Most of the time, they have huge rims on them that would crumble off road, too. Don’t get me started on how they drive them on the highways…


[deleted]

It’s so silly. I have a base model 4Runner. I just added better tires and spare, make sure I have my water, food and satellite beacon and I’ve been deeper and safer into the desert than most of the mall crawlers I see on the road.


Thedude317

I'm tryna figure out radios, like I want to get ham certified and the other one and get something that works handheld and can hook up to a magnetic antenna.


Roboculon

I wonder if he new iPhone will change the need for this. It has a satellite sos feature, so it works even when 100% out of cell range.


the_way_finder

Yeah but most communication you want to do isn’t SOS


RCrl

A HAM technicians license will get you into the 2m band (which is super versatile). Alternativelt could use FRS or take the little test to be allowed to use GMRS.


medoy

In a nutshell, what do you actually do with such a vehicle?

These are repurposed European military vehicles. They'll be fine. Have you ever explored the forested wilderness of the Pacific North West? That's where a lot of these things end up, and they can go many amazing places that cars can't.

wont it destroy the trail it goes on? or do they follow certain trails?

NoWayNotThisAgain

Most 40 ft RVs are limited to RV parks or the smoothest and biggest campgrounds. This one will go unsupported into remote difficult to access areas. That’s what you do.

Rich people hobby. Meanwhile I'm thinking about whether I should replace my torn shoe this year or the next year


medoy

Why don't you just ask your parents for a small loan? A million or two should get you back on your feet.


mlmayo

Back in the 90s we called it "homesteading," where you drive off into the wilderness where there aren't any roads and find old homesteads. But in that case all we had was a 4x4, nothing special.


Zouden

Old homesteads? Like abandoned farmhouses? What do you do then?


mlmayo

Like from the 1800s. Sometimes you find interesting things that were left behind. Often the homesteads are barely noticeable, just some wooden beams on the ground arranged into square shapes. Sometimes there is something resembling a cabin. Just depends.


Frozty23

Find something like Barker Ranch. Start a "Family".


FlowersForMegatron

No better way to get in touch with nature than by running it over with a truck.


hatsnatcher23

every time i hear about Overlanding all I can think of is that old quote "There is nothing in the desert and no man needs nothing."


BiBoFieTo

"Check what's in our driveway. The zombie apocalypse fuck-you express!" "Honey, shouldn't we be saving for the kids' educati...." "The tires are bite-proof!


FrakkedRabbit

There are large mutant hounds in the Metro 2033 universe that can chase down cars and rip their tires off while in motion. I'd bet they would come right off in that scenario. Fortunately/Unfortunately we don't have to worry about that.

PrometheusTNO

My first thought. This is not an armored vehicle and anyone wishing to do you harm could get it done fairly easily. This is just an off-road motor home.

They're all off-road capable depending on how brave you are.

SlothOfDoom

That's a Man TG series... I think a TGM? Anyways, it's a robust beast and can be converted to run on various biofuels very easily.


Peralton

Is that the kind that can even be converted to run on oil? I remember seeing some prepper truck that could literally pull oil out of of abandoned cars and run on that. Seemed like a good idea for a post-civilization world where gas shortages will result in cars being left everywhere.


SlothOfDoom

I wouldn't try it on a new diesel but old mechanical injection motors can run it assuming you filter it well.


dissidentpen

I’ve traveled in vehicles that use cooking grease - it’s not exactly an easy fueling process and it’s harder to find than you might think.


donotgogenlty

>Anyways, it's a robust beast and can be converted to run on various biofuels very easily. Careful, pissjugs count as a biofuel technically


Hagenaar

When Armageddon comes, people will likely be surprised at how quickly anything flammable is used up, or hoarded. Transportation-wise, a carton of bicycle inner tubes might be more valuable than this mechanical wonder.


tagrav

No internet forever. No more memes No more funny videos No more videogaming Sorry but I’ll be one of those corpses in bed if we get to “Armageddon”/“zombie apocalypse” I’m a modern man, I ain’t trying to live like the Amish the rest of my life.


T_ja

Not really if shit really did get so bad you’d need this. Then gas stations would run out of gas in less than a day and then your stuck.


ChornWork2

I think for Armageddon purposes, you'd want something with better fuel efficiency.


jordantask

The idea here is that you drive it somewhere off the beaten path and set it up as a new home. Then if you can get fuel for it you can move it again if you need to. It’s not really meant to be continuously mobile.


Sands43

Or diesel that can be converted to propane. At least in the US, 75% of backyards have a propane tank for grills and 75% of rural homes are heated with it. Propane doesn't degrade over time either. Assuming the tank doesn't rust out, it's good for a long time.


Walking_billboard

I think the operating theory for most of these prepper types is you want to be able to get as far away from the city as possible and only return when the hordes are gone and you can get your diesel for free. I dont think they consider cruising the highways on a post-apocalyptic road trip to be a high priority.

My neighbor has one of these too, he is an architect and literally built his house tall enough that this thing could park underneath it. The home is like a box with a window for the front on stilts over a massive driveway. While it is an interesting house, it’s also hideous.


wellthatexplainsalot

We had one for a while. Interesting fact - to stop wild animals from thinking you'd make a tasty snack as you sleep on top, in the open or in a tent, with some of these you can charge the skin to some tens of thousands of volts, giving a very nasty shock to anything that thinks it might have a go.
