Re: Unusual RV Reply #175 – April 10, 2020, 02:38:35 pm This rig showed up in the RV park where we are staying during the COVID lockdown.It is built on a Freightliner truck chassis. I don't know if this is a custom build or a very small production company, but I've never seen another one. That is a Miata it is carrying.Art 7 Likes
Re: Unusual RV Reply #176 – April 10, 2020, 04:08:16 pm Thanks interesting. I wonder if it tilts up or slides up during travel? I didnt realize that stop lights could be mounted that high up as well.

I didnt realize that stop lights could be mounted that high up as well.I haven't seen them load/unload the car. But walking by it, I'd guess that the rear end of the deck for the car lowers to ground level and the car's tire straps attached or detached and the car backed off or driven onto the deck. It looks like there are also lights at the end of the car deck.Art
Re: Unusual RV Reply #178 – April 10, 2020, 05:06:30 pm " I wonder if it tilts up or slides up..."From what I can see they also have a receiver on the rear of the 'car deck' as if they intended to tow something else!

Re: Unusual RV Reply #183 – September 08, 2020, 01:06:10 pm hope this rv comes with a hose attachment to suck up the gas of the car it's hauling, because it's going to need every last drop it can get!

Re: Unusual RV Reply #191 – October 18, 2020, 02:49:04 pm Here is an interesting self-build. Looks like the builder did a nice job. Wondering how he got 900 watts of solar on a vehicle that size, though?https://sandiego.craigslist.org/nsd/rvs/d/carlsbad-ram-promaster-3500-ext-high/7215564665.html
Re: Unusual RV Reply #192 – October 18, 2020, 07:48:28 pm Using Lazy Daze's 100 watt panels as a guide, (20.5x 41) 1kw would be 82", (two panels end to end) by 102.5" (5 panels side by side). So a 7 foot wide roof, by 8 and a half foot length would do it. Easy if you have unencumbered roof, no vents, no 'walkway', no antennas, etc. It helps if you build the van with a large array of PV in mind. Expensive though, and the batteries and controllers, inverters too. RonB
