hello,

have done the the following:

1. built VW LT 46 truck as an camper, and trying to fit the bike on the back...did not work out, too small and cramped end up costing 15Ke to build....also the TDI engine was disappointment, electrics...in engine managment....


2.did look into military trucks, did the math on the gasoline expenses...it would be lovely to have 4X4 but you really dont need it.

3.took route with mitsubishi fuso 4.6metric ton truck with isolated standard container on the back, now plenty of room to live and all the space that I need.

the engine is bullet proof, and the rear axle lock is mandatory with any truck....gas milage is excelent 20-25Mpg negatives are the expenses with building one (20Ke)

4. if I would do it again...put the bike on back of the good trailer JT-Trailer 750 UUSI UMPIK�RRY 2010 - TELILL� 150x300x150 cm - Kuljetuskalusto | Nettivaraosa

and decent used roomy car (your preference) to pull it...or campervan or RV, easy, cheap and working solution...

according my experience, it will take hundreds of hours to build own vehicle, with lots of money....and selling one is is a disappointment. (you never get your money back)
