The build quality looks questionable but the concept is cool as hell.

That's a box of awesome just needing some finishing touches. I'd drive it.

It's sitting on an F53 chassis which is plenty strong enough. The 05 Superduty axles get you disk brakes on all 4 corners. It should be pretty bulletproof. Looks like the biggest issue is the lack of steering and the lack of a roof.

A long bed for hauling dirt bikes. Then you could deck out the space behind the seats like a VW Westphalia with sink and refrigerator et al as a camper.

I like it. Why can't they make something like this?

The body work is so... uh, well ... redne, no ~ not pretty work; I shudder to look at the stretched frame.

It's sitting on a RV chassis so it's probably not stretched.

I'm pretty sure a basic K-turn would look more like 13 W's stacked on top of each other.

That's a "We have Centurion at home" if I've ever seen one.

Nah, just power brake the hell out of it and whip it around like this.

I HATED driving a crew cab with an 8' bed.

I'd rather be slathered in honey and strapped down naked to an ant hill than drive that thing.

I like it. Nice touch to carry the body groove/slider door groove all the way down the bed where the marker light is.

I mean, the bodywork could leave a bit to be desired...

Man, I loved my OBS F350 Crew Cab with the 8' bed. It was almost as long as this thing. To this day I regret selling it. I will admit, I didn't daily it. It was strictly a tow beast. If I had, I'd probably have less fond memories of it.

For reference, that's a 34' camper.
