I need to sell so please make offers, ask questions and let’s discuss.
Rear cab/living quarters specifications:
This rig was designed and built to be a true off grid, full time living, 4 season, boondocking tiny house. Complete with all the comforts of home including, heat pump cooling and radiant floor heating.
The rear box of this rig originally served as an ambulance. I chose to build my home in an ambulance because of the extremely high build quality and toughness of an emergency service vehicle. The read box is made of welded 2×2” square aluminum tubing covered in seamless 1/8” aluminum sheeting. This makes the rear box extremely rigid and safe, in fact an ambulance box is one of the few rear cabs rated for human occupants to survive a rollover in the event of a crash.

Thanks to the high power density of the Tesla battery modules and the 1340 watts of high efficiency solar, the electrical system will run the mini split heat pump all day in the sun and still charge the batteries! You will be cool even in the hottest weather.

Warmth and Cooling
I built this rig for sub zero winters and I lived in this rig during the polar vortex where I experienced -34 f wind chills. The diesel air and hydronic heaters kept me and the floor of mat rig warm and comfortable with my only chore of filling the diesel tank every 4 days or so.
In the summer I run the mini-split heat pump off my solar /batteries and chill out in the cool.
