Hey that was a cool Volvo, and his trailer was massive ....I love seeing things this big , as you know Karen nothing as big as this set up could move in England, we will never see such things here , just too big to cope with our little country 🤣 shout out to Marty for the tour 👊 impressive set up .

Mine has a 110 inch sleeper which is a little shorter than his truck. And mine cost 385,000 new and they go up to 650,000 to 700,000. They are not cheap. It’s better to get them used.

I have a friend locally that built his own Condo and had his frame stretched out similar to this. He hauls Jet skis and Motorcycles on lifts on the deck. Along with that he carries a hot tub an a second floor bar also on his rear deck. He goes to alot of the HD rallies I asked to get pictures of Dave at his bar on the truck ! Hopefully yall get to meet him and see his truck .

Unfortunately, I was not able to see that.

I totally understand in this gentlemans case the need for the "condo" or living quarters. What I don't totally understand is the folks towing exclusively an RV what is the need for the investment in the "condo"? I mean the 3500 dually they used to tow with most likely did not have living quarters in it? Seems odd to me .... ? 😊

Trucks like that are used for expedited high value loads mostly husband and wife teams. You see them hauling jet engines just can’t hauled a lot of weight. It meets needs for his work. I sure they mainly west of the Mississippi .

So, he uses this tractor for commercial use, that means he should have a DOT number on the truck, commercial plate, CDL A license etc...I wonder if he has all that?

That’s a beautiful tractor. When the container is on the back of tractor, it is no longer a private RV cause he’s using it commercially to make money. How does he get away with registering the tractor as, I assume, an RV when using it commercially? Does he cover up the Private RV sign on the sides of the tractor and go across the highway scales? I’ve never seen anyone doing double duty with a big rig. As a truck driver for 40 years, I have an inquiring mind. I hope you can answer this, I’d really like to know how he does that. When used commercially, he needs the IFTA sticker and permits. Thanks.

Putting private rv, not for hire, is actually a red flag. You shouldn't do that. Also, he just admitted to violation of fmcsa regulations. Hope he actually has dot, ifta, irp for servicing weather c stations.

I assume that you're asking about the BBC (bumper to back of cab) dimension, in inches. It's a day cab, so it would be less than 156"; the current VNL 300 is about 135" BBC. 156" would be a VNL 400 (short sleeper) and 180" would be a VNL 740 (typical long-haul sleeper cab).

See Marty's response to this I added in the description below the video.

I read Marty’s explanation and he’s using his tractor, registered as an RV, commercially to avoid paying all the State taxes for trucks, like the fuel and highway taxes for the States he drives through. Marty, you are an owner/operator when that container with your tools in it is on the back of your tractor. You are a lawsuit waiting to happen if you’re ever involved in an accident, with the container attached, and the other party gets an attorney. That defense attorney will know the law regarding your situation and does your insurance company know this RV is also used as a business? When that container is on the back, you should have a commercial drivers license, a medical card and a logbook. Marty, you are not an RV when servicing those hydrogen facilities.

It's not even dark gray,@@TonyBenton0728 , it's black-and-white. That's a commercial truck when the box is mounted and he is working. His argument that other people work from their RVs is interesting, but it fails as soon as he mounts the commercial service box, making the vehicle clearly a truck. Someone writing a blog from the laptop in their RV is not hauling a commercial load. I don't have a problem with what he does with the rig, only the fraudulent use of the RV exemption. The rig itself appears to be well thought out.
