    The Duonic transmissions like to cause headaches on these, especially the earlier ones 2011-2013.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    @mike, For over two decades full-time live-aboard, we shower every afternoon. . This requires getting to camp early afternoon... ... instead of Mad-Slasher Midnight. . Advantage: * daylight walk-around of each rig in the caravan to check for hanging stuff * supper and showers * hardly ever camp on an ant-hill or under a wasp-nest.

    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.

    @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.

    Eeayeah... You really need to do some homework on a Fuso. Don't get me wrong, they're amazing Overlanding Vehicle's, they're great in all climates. They'll go just about every where that you can think of. But I've got some bad news for you Sunshine. Fuso is shutting down their North America Operations, the first to go will be Sales. Parts and Service will be around for 7 or 8 more years. It's like I said, you might want to look into before you buy on a whim...
