The clearance and visibility are nice, but I'd order the camper version.  I suppose if I have to ask what it cost, I can't afford it.

THX for the link share.

Sweet ride, i'd put a roof-top-tent up there and hit the forestry roads.

Yeah, it could use some build-outs for our purposes; a solar panel awning wouldn't hurt to shade some of that glass.  I wonder how an electric/diesel combo would work for the locomotion. Better late than never to reinvent our vehicles and this looks like a good start.
