I just can't believe 15K for a sleeper unit only!!!!!!!!!!!!

It would take some abuse though. The suspension and frame are bad ass however you'd pay for it all. I'd like to know if the 5500 unit has same setup underneath? If so that's a good deal. Love the circulating hitch setup

Man I wonder just how much that base model weigh? It really does look bad ass.

 

[Montecresto]

Fffiuuggg....

Yeah, way over the top. Bet that units very heavy too.

 

[moparornocar]

Oh I'm sure, probably 1500lb or more.

$10.00 per pound.

In the basic model, not the one in CP's video, it weighs the same as the Osprey!!!

I've ordered a case of freeze dried meals for those times when we're in the bush, far from the amenities that we're all so use to. Back Packers Pantry and Mountain House.

I was thinking I'd pack a few MRE as well. Along with some canned goods etc.

That's all heavy, but MRE's are ready to eat! (As the name suggests, lol)

Somebody once mentioned a smallish list of tools/gear/parts that might come in handy in a particular bind, but might never be used and thus be an unnecessary burden in weight and space but instead of each driver carrying it all, splitting it up. I don't recall what those items were but it seems like it was things like a No. 2 Round Point D handle shovel, tie rod, machete, etc. perhaps we should establish such a list and then agree on who carries what???? Just something to think about.
