- Mike was nice enough to give me a tour of his very own custom tiny home on wheels. I have done a ton of tours over the years and I must say, this one was probably my favorite.

Ok!...I acknowledge I have “ah” problem!😂 I’m really going to try to work on that. But first, wanted to say thanks to everyone who, ah, took the time to check out this video and offered a comment or two ;) I appreciate what everyone has to say. The kind words and even the critical. Makes for good conversations. Chris and I filmed this conversation on the fly with the camera rolling as we chatted away. To those few with rude or insulting comments...I guess I’ll default to the old saying...”If you’ve got nothing nice or productive to say, just say nothing at all”. Just carry on to the next video. All that said, Overland Expo was a great time! The venue was well organized and very well attended.
If anyone has any questions feel free to ask away or send me a message.
Peace ✌️ and safe on the road :)
I didn't notice the "ah" until I read your comment as I was getting ready to comment about this fantastic expedition vehicle that was extremely livable. I love this rig!
Absolutely love your rig, Mike!! Don't worry about the "uhs"... You should've saw me giving speeches a few years ago. I kept doing group talks and got a lot better. Do more videos about your adventures and you'll be a natural.
If you need a video editor for your channel, hit me up! I help people get started with video vlogs.
Ah ah ah ah👌😂😂😂😂

Nice quote from Bamby
This is incredible, it looks so heavy duty on the outside but very elegant on the inside. Love the size difference of the RV compared to the standard truck. Enjoyable interview, thank you very much!
Thank you for not adding music to this video. I liked being able to clearly hear you.
This expedition was designed right and includes all you would need. I love the fact that the window panes don't break. I always said my off road vehicle would include good dependable security . I want to know while I am sleeping a break-in cannot occur. My parents have heavy duty manual locks on the inside of their motorhome. These days live , love , play safe !
Buy a shotgun and install a reliable alarm system.
@@Baron-nv1ez We are gun owners and know how to use them but now-a-days all precautions are life savers !! PEOPLE BE CRAZY !!
Its great to here from someone who owns one .
I would add a 12 volt refrigerator out side for drinks that folds down for easy acces and a washer for cleaning clothes and cameras giving a 360 view around rig.
This rig is built for durability which I highly desire.👍
Billybob Billybob having money gives you options, isn't capitalism great?
@@anthonyc362 this man has money. So let him enjoy his life
Suzumebachi that is what I was saying.
@@anthonyc362 excuse me.
Suzumebachi no problem. I believe everyone should be able to do what they want as long as they aren't stealing from or harming others.
A work of art, I LOVE IT. Go into the hills and enjoy...
Hello from Ireland 🇮🇪 love the Kilkee sign on the wall 👏👏👏
Chris, you and Mike did a great job on this tour in spite of all the people milling about. It is a very livable overland vehicle. Many of the ones I have seen are marginal at best.
"it's how fast you can stop it". I APPLAUD your focus on SAFETY. I'm an experienced OTR semi truck driver with Schneider. And the thing they always teach and what is first and foremost on my mind, every single time I got in that truck was this.
1. I'm an 80,000 missile heading down the road. SAFETY, ATTENTION, AWARENESS
2. YOU are RESPONSIBLE for everyone and everything around you. As a married man with 3 children I envisioned a minivan full of families and my own driving next to me at all times.
3. I NEVER was on the phone while driving, regardless of hands free or through the radio. When you're talking to someone on the phone your mind can wander.
You got some very healthy thoughts about RV’ing. Floorheating, zero propane, living in ‘save mode’ electric wise.
New subscriber. Thanks for sharing 👍
“I could sit, but a lot of times I just prefer to lean”
As an installer of residential systems, I'm curious about whatever structured audio/video/internet is on the rig. There was no mention of that.
I think this guy is some kind of special ops man he's got all the bells and whistles. And he can go anywhere with this stuff. Yeah Special Ops of some sort. LOL he's good to go wish I could have something like that.
Tom cruise mission impossible x
you could.. just sell everything you own, then work for 10 years, try to triple that amount and youll be good to go. I think im going to try to convert a larger igloo cooler and live in that. About all i can afford.
And here I get giddy thinking about a future tear drop trailer or conversion van with basic amenities...
Now that is the way to go! Thanks for sharing. As always a great job Chris.
It was so relaxing watching your video today.....what a beautiful camping spot you got!! It was just what I needed to encourage me even more to get on the road with my husband. Thanks so much!!
Barbara Kirchner Hello 👋 thanks a lot for the kind words:). Safe travels
Good luck, convincing your husband. It’s a different life, and most RV’ers would not trade back. Take a look at the “Living and Giving 4x4 “ channel.
I'm a boat enthusiast but after watching this video, I think I will be a expedition enthusiast. Africa; here I come!!!
MEAN JAMF Go for it! You gonna love Africa and you will very fast learn the word “WELCOME” over there. 👍
Like because you can get from the living space to the cockpit. Washer dryer , dishwasher , wood heater large refrigerator w freezer ,closet space ,BATHTub and more storage space is missing. Love the cassette toilet.
I drive through Milford every day, going to have to keep an eye out for that monster.

You have given me an idea to increase my boondocking time...like many, I suffer from a shortage of tank capacity. 30 gallons. Watching your bathroom/toilet tour...what is the usage (days) capacity of the cassette and are there odour issues? My personal brainstorm was...install a Thetford cassette system...and swap out my black tank for another fresh water...x2 my capacity.
Thanks for the idea!

Love the rig, the whole setup is awesome. Can you make a video when you are actually "Outdoors". I mean I've never seen EVs like these in their intended environment.
Engr.Mansoor Habib
There are MANY out there. Try off road RV’ing or 4x4 RV or 6x6 RV. GOOD LUCK!
I get it, the guy is very rich!
woah man, as a Michigander, this guy is uh.... definitely local. ... n... uh... I really do know what I'm talkin about but um.... well... so... it makes you feel like um... it really does make sense if you're thinkin' about it. Know what I uh... I mean?
Nice , I like the idea of having the bed up over a dinette. One thing we have found out is it’s nice to have enough seating for four with a large enough table even if you don’t use it all the time . Solar , I would never get another unit without it . It works so good and is basically maintenance free .
Happy Trails :-)
Ready for the zombie apocalypse
But he did not have any defense in truck wear are 5 comman weapons
First any 9mm or 45 cal pistols
Second 5.56 cal or 7.62×39 assault rifles
Thrid any basic short gun in 12 gauge
Fourth sniper rifle in any calibers
Fifth close range blades or swords
These are the five basic weapons to defend your self and your personal property
My thoughts exactly
Yeah i know, and oh sorry for replying a year later!
@@fahadfarrukh1355 cringe
wait until you see the GXV pangea on a freightliner crew cab chassis.
Kind of the swiss army knife of outdoor exploration vehicles. Always interesting seeing how systems have improved and advanced on RV's. Not really my cup of tea but I understand why someone would desire it. It is also interesting how people don't grasp some simple concepts behind how this truck is used and built. MPG is not really a concern for someone who can afford something like this and it is actually a lot better than a 33' gasser hauling a jeep.
“Sir, are you sucking water from my pool?”
XD
Yes, and when I was done I dropped my Black briefcase in there. LOL
First time I saw a car that fullfils all my wishes. Now I have a "litle" problem, to make the money I need. Its a dream to work on, for real and this is an amazing video covering all nice information we may need. Cheers from Brasil!
I like this rig bad ass reminds me of a military vehicle.
I really love this kind of video's about big Global Expedition Vehicles.... nice video man, THX
Great build, but I want to see that front cabin
I have two questions for you.what is the overall length of this vehicle ?
How long will the fresh water tank last If you are boondocking ?
For the second, depends how much you use daily?
Wow, just takes my breath away.
It's so nice and luxurious I wouldn't care so much about gas mileage. But, I get your irony 'Global Expedition Vehicle'.
@Parker McLendon Honestly for something this big, it has pretty good gas mileage.
@@JuicyFruityifyit’s 300 gallons lol this is ours. Just one time fill up from Florida to Michigan
Love it! Unfortunately I don't have $500,000 to spend.
@Chris Ruiz 🤣
Sweet GEV! I was in Rocky Harbour NL a few years ago and spied one from my motel. I was drawn to it. Great job Mike. I had an "OK" problem when I got my first job that required public speaking. My co-workers videoed me and watching it cured me:) Thank you for sharing!
Hello Greetings from Kilkee County Clare Ireland .... just saw you had Road Signage from Kilkee in your camper van intro.... you have done a smashing job on the camper van, come back over to Ireland and show it off. Noel
I have a few questions about the truck.
How long can you run the diesel generator using the 280 gallons of fuel ?
How quiet is the diesel generator inside the truck while running ?
How much did you pay to have the rv built ?
What is the brand name of the generator ?
I have been designing a layout in my head for a van conversion and like you I have never understood why a drop down bed over a seating area isn't done more often. Seems to make a lot of sense to me. Maybe I need to make one.
I have a Fuso-based rig with a permanent bed aft and a dining area forward. We find that frequently one person may be napping in the bed (or reading) while the other is sitting at the dinette. No matter how big or small a rig is, space is always at a premium, so you really have to think through your intended use before committing to one design or another. The biggest consideration is how many people will be traveling in the truck. IMO, any more than two people in a truck causes space conflicts that really detract from your experience. A drop down bed, or better described as a stow away bed, takes away your sleeping/napping option in exchange for additional seating. But why? I think you’ll find that most of the time you’ll want to sit OUTSIDE, not inside. The only exception I can think of to convertible furniture would be a small van or Sprinter sized rig where space is at a super premium. In that case, stowing a bed for more day seating or storage, may be the way to go. YMMV.
Good God it must be nice to have that kind of money. Looks like so much fun.
Love fellow Michiganders! From Onsted.
This vehicle is a masterpiece!
Owner has good taste.
PDB Long owner has 💰
Love it! The large gas tanks are awesome!
this guy kinda describes everything like you would when you’re trying to stretch your essay for that word count
ikr lol
phuc ewe lets just say i started counting and in a 30 second period i got tired.
d0tsA let’s just say it was equally painful to watch this myself 😂 I could probably use a fresh round of shock treatment after that performance. Probably shouldn’t quit my day job for Hollywood 😊✌️
ADV Tinker its cool I get shaky legs when I get nervous. We’re all human.
He sounds like that character in Thunderbirds called Brains!
2:47 i would put a lifting bed, with a U lounge/office/convertible bed in the back. But that would take away the most valuable storage outside. Unless u open.
If the International is plan B what is plan A? Air Force One?
1:41 in,
"This brotha is high AF"
got the glasses, got the pause, got the big gestures. Let's smoke up Cuz, see some lions and shit together!
Lol didn't even occur to me, but if so, I'm finally seeing one of those mythical high-functioning stoners in action 👁️👄👁️
I have two questions about your global expedition vehicle.
What is the overall length of your vehicle ?
How long can you boondock in the vehicle ?
Awesome Rig.
Thanks for sharing!
Elegant exterior and comfortable interior. Nice..
Would be curious as to how he'd be maintaining the 5000+ systems on the side of the road in Central America .
The best pair of freedom vehicles i have ever seen absolutely brilliant
I bought the great one. Thank you man
Love the time stamps
Awesome Rig man..... SO happy for you. im sure youre fully booked.
Nice truck! I can live here for the rest of my life
Absolutely love your dining table… love it….
QUESTION Is there any expedition vehicle i mean any
Mercedes unimog, international , man , scania,
Is there 1 vehicle that can operate during an EMP? Then after EMP?
I don't think so
You could have one built. In the US, you would need to get a pre 2007 chassis, so that the new emission standard wouldn't apply. Basically you would need a diesel that had a mechanical lift pump, injector pump and mechanical injectors. Once you get it running it's going to keep running, even if you lost the alternator. Now the glow plug relay may be fried and if you shut it off, it won't work for cold starting. Having a can of starting fluid and KNOWING how to use it, so that you don't blow your engine is also a necessity. If have electronic anything, you may loose it, including the transmission. EMP proof vehicle is mechanical everything in the engine bay and non-electronic transmission or a manual transmission. BTW there is a way to EMP harden a vehicle, but I won't go into all of that here. Too much to post.
This is the most beautiful tiny home. I am very impressed with, especially the interior specifications and the comfort it provides to the passengers. In addition to the overall size of the truck, it is very practical in cities in terms of maneuverability. Also suitable for off-road.
I hope to find additional information about the cost of building a masterpiece such as yours and the place where I can request to equip such a masterpiece with specifications suitable for hot countries, such as the Middle East, where I live.
Thank you for your detailed explanation and your sophisticated taste in truck design.
This may be the baddest of the bad asses RV in the history of bad-ass RVs! Ah think so!
This is absolutely beautiful. He is very lucky to have that vehicle. Is this acceptable for national parks and where does he usually take this incredible creation? Yes, if I win the lotto I want one.. lol
Is it me/am I missing something or does it seem like there should be a lot of unused space underneath where the bed is? There's the drawer from the outside, but that's not taking up all the space that should be there, no?
The only thing this thing needs is a drybath and I'd be in love.
Living his adventure dream !
Nice. But what’s the cost to get one of these beauts on the road?
Bout 4-5 mpg of gas to drive it
This is just a cool vehicle. Seriously would buy one of these custom for some river/beach camping with my mrs. GXV makes a solid product!!
Hello from desert wadi rum jordan 🇯🇴
Bad ass off road camper, would love to have that and pull a Jeep Wrangler behind it
what brand are those skylights? amazing truck!
I have one question ?
What is the overall length of the truck ?
Wow this is gorgeous on the inside as well as the outside could definitely live in this providing I could climb up the steps getting in without falling off the step lol, broke my right hand falling twice in as many weeks and was in plaster both times, in fact my family is thinking of having me bubble wrapped for Christmas xx
A very nice display of technology integrated into a 12 ton overlander. I’m not so sure I’d take it very far off road because if you get it stuck up to the axels, who will be able to pull it out? That being said, this build pushes technological applications so the *rest of us* can benefit from lower prices eventually. And the build kept a bunch of skilled craftsmen employed. I’m all for rich guys spending their money!!
I love it! Only thing I can't stand is I would not have a wet bath. What a hassle having to wipe everything down after you get out of the shower. I would have to have my shower have a sliding door
I'm curious as to the speed rating on those tires. He said he can go 80 and that seems fast for tires that size.
I'm somewhat concerned about the just under 4000W hair dryer...That's not residential. Residential is limited to 1800W because that's all a 15A residential circuit can handle. Does she bring along a commercial sit-down hair dryer?
What does something like this cost very curious
The Taj Mahal on wheels. I think every sheikh wants one. You need to own an oil well to buy one of these. Thank god I don't have this gigantic thing on my driveway. Its too big, and too much for me. Plus the more you own, the more things to look after. My new motto is - own less and be happier.
What is the purpose after all? Is it to see the world or have something so complicated, big, gas guzzling, that you spend your time maintaining it, feeding the beast, tinkering with it, fixing it, adding more electronic gear or gizmos and not seeing the world. Travel small and travel light. My motto. In this van, there is no room for adventure.
But everyone has their way to travel. This thing is a beast with every luxury and appointment. Its very comfortable inside, but I feel very glad I have a small 22 ft Class C, very manageable size, on my driveway. Happy travels Mike! Thanks for the tour. I am happy for you, but for once, I am very happy with mine too.
Geiler Truck ,gefällt mir sehr gut. Grüße aus Germany
Looks like a Global Expedition RV/Meat/Ice Cream Utility Vehicle!
Who do you call if and when one of these breaks down?
Poop 💩
A 6x6 rotator
Any reputable OTR truck towing or diesel repair shop could fix it.
8 years ago there where only a dozen of these companies now sky's the limit
Nice build man.
I want it all, I want it all, I want it all, and i want it now!… i’m not singing Queen’s
Zombie RV, love it. 8mpg tho, damn....
8mpg is pretty average. I've seen them around the 5-12mpg for most off road TVs like this
@uhh I suppose in a post-apocalyptic zombie filled world, gasoline would be plentiful, so I see where you're coming from.
Nicely decorated inside and well presented 🙏🏽
This is a Chadmobile.
Action Mobil Atacama 5200 HB is the one of the most practical floor plan. Only 25', but feels like living in a 30'.
Daamn, what a privilege, to have one life and to afford this, or another crazy stuffs made by companies to our amusament..I think i will never have money for such a thing...
Nice straight forward video of a sweet rig. Amazing number of stupid comments! Keep on truckin dude!
I can't seem to find the opening wall window at 18:29 anywhere on the web. Is there a manufacture for that type of window?
Mike Manning
That window-wall is probably made upon owner’s request. The channel “Living an Giving 4x4” has one too, slightly bigger, if memory serves me right.
How confortable is to drive it for 5, 6 hours on the highway?
ill take it in black and kevlar lining on the inside
My my my
Have you ran into sasquatch if u so happen to spend time in such areas where they may be im thinking if investing in a RV and going SAQUATCHING
Hey, it's your site. Don't pay attention to the criticism. This thing is amazing, but the mileage will break the bank and the upfront cost isn't for the average person. I've seen versions of these on our travels and while they are cool/neat, I personally think they are far out of reach of average people. Of course, if your intent is to live in one 24/7 and sell everything you have, great. I think in the end the adventure this rig offers will be overshadowed by the drain on your bank account.
I wish you would have shown the solar array.
This guy sounds like a Kirby vacuum sales rep that is going through a divorce but doesn’t know it yet.
That's nice one there.
How much does it cost?
And how long does it take to build one?
Very Nice EV...well thought out and put together...I am trying to build one, but I know it will be at a fraction of what this costs...lol...
How much do they cost just ball park?sweet vehicle.
Price? Love it
