Thank you for the tour of your truck. I too like you worked in the ER for 25 years followed by ICU. Your statement about not being that guy. All too often I cared for people who dreamed of a retirement and travelling to far off places. Always putting it off and never realizing their dreams. Then one day they find themselves laying on a stretcher in the ER being told they have experienced a massive stroke that will probably incapacitate them for the rest of their lives. The agonizing truths followed by tears are the only things left of their dreams.

Moving to a country with high wages, continue living like you did when you were a student, not spending money on stuff you don't need and saving everything you can... next to being lucky that you can do all these things and find a partner who's just as stupid as you to want to do the same thing. 🤷♂ You don't need to be a doctor to afford this. We both had 10 years less time to work and save than somebody who hasn't studied. It's all about living small and saving as much as you can... ...and most importantly: It doesn't have to be an Excap with a Krug module... People have been doing similar things with much cheaper rigs and by no means anyhow worse. We're just lucky that we could afford it but that doesn't make the adventure in any way bigger or better.
@@Overlanding What an amazing way to explain that being a doctor doesn't mean finding a ‘money tree’ but it's hard work and smart planning. Wish you a wonderful time and hope to meet you somewhere in the world 🤩
@@michaelkalinowski3129 Thanks Michael. Yeah as soon as you know *why* you are saving 50-70% of your income every month, it gets a hell of a lot easier to do it.
I went to a finance talk, and someone did the math that if person A started working as a UPS driver after graduating high school, and person B went straight to medical school after debt free college (which may not happen! both in the debt area and going straight into med school is less likely nowadays) - then person B will need EIGHTEEN YEARS to catch up to the net worth of person A if person B takes on full loans. Assuming both parties don't have cash cows for family, that is. So we can extrapolate that anyone who earns more than a UPS driver probably has more net earnings than a physician will have for much longer than eighteen years, especially if investment, retirement plans, etc. are planned at a young professional age. Y'all look at a doctor's salary but never think about the decades (!!) of lost wages they take on top of massive debt to get that salary. It's all rainbows when you see that salary afterwards but not the financial burden they have to take on before then. Obviously a family that can take on that burden eases things tremendously, but that would be a different conversation than by anyone just being a doctor. Point being, is that anyone, not just doctors, can afford "expensive" things if they save, prioritize, and plan accordingly. It may take longer than others, or it may not be prioritized enough to make into reality (e.g. kids, health). But that just means that this particular couple chose not to do certain things that other people chose to do, to afford this cost. Or better yet, figure out a way to achieve the same adventure without having to take on as much of a cost!
"I'm a doctor, I used to work in the ER for quite some time, and I've seen so many cases where people had probably planned for a lot of things to do in the future, but they never got there. And I swear to myself I will never be that guy that takes all his dreams into the grave, because there are no guarantees in life; there's no guarantee that you're not going to be the one that gets hit by the bus tomorrow and ends up in the ER and never makes it out of there. 1 in 5 adult males doesn't make it to retirement but everybody plans for it you know."
It happened to me. I planned my whole life to be a marine. I got hit by a pick up truck a few weeks before boot camp. It changed my life out of nowhere. I didn't even see it coming.
I have a 1976 Fleury built in Saskatoon Canada with 750,000 k. it is confoned to North America but is a gem . The 1969 vw van did the around world trip but above the equator except Australia and New Zealand for 2 years in 1969 when it was safe . Enjoy your adventure . Norman
For 5 years we are on the road with a normal sized Van. We have seen a lot of those monster trucks. They catch our eyes. For sure. But the have all the same in comon. The never could pass trough the little village roads in Bolivia, Spain or Albania. The are much to high for many bridges in the country side an got permanently stuck in the low hanging electric wires in India and South America. But most astonishing is , ...that those people with there 100.000 $ vehicles never come out of there cars to talk, to sit on a camp fire, to be part of the neighborhood on campground or on wild camps. It's just our experience for many years shared with many other travellers. It's a unanswered miracle. "I love my steel home" What's the petrol consumption for those 2 people of approximately 140 and a mountain of steel of 8 tons on a 100 km ?? It's O.K. to make your dreams become reality. But that works only in Sweden and North America. I would not like to park in an Guatemala village on a plaza with that tank to buy a handful tomatoes.
Very true observation. This trend of overlanding is just another type of consumerism and status chase among the "tasteful" upper middle classes. Changing the vulgar show off-ism with luxury cars and clothes to offroad vehicles and outdoor brands that cost the same if not more.
@@manocpjaevel You both are right. You both are probably better off staying home. . Meanwhile, we are taking our rig to the coast for a few days. After that, we may head over to the desert.
it sure is weird how gentrified van life has become. If you did van life in the 1980s in the UK you would get the shit kicked out of you by police. Fact. Now it's yuppies with half million dollar rigs that are F.U. on the outside and pure suburbia on the inside. Having said this, its mortgage free and rent free, so if you can work remotely there are a ton of reasons why you would want to do this rather than be in mortgage hell and spending half your life working for the bank, after the gov has had their slice. Its a way to get some of your life back.
Before our 3 awesome sons, my wife and I had 2 years with tandem bicycle and BMW (R80GS) MC across the Sahara Desert. She was a great sport. But it’s good she didn’t see your rig! Beautiful!
I totally understand that sentence about being that guy that takes his dreams to the grave.... I was a police officer and i had a job that i would never been kicked out of and it never wold've shut down.... but i wasn't happy (if i cant sa so) about it anymore i was burned out by seeing suffering of other people.... and i gave up on that and now im happy cause i can go to work with a smile on my face .... to the place where i'm doing what i love ... so i became a tattoo artist :D good luck & live your life to the fullest!!!
@rick, Our ExpeditionVehicle rarely gets better than 14mpg. We rarely travel more than a hundred miles a month. Fuel is a very minor part of the budget.

And I can't wait for the day when we have electric vehicles with this kind of capability.
Very high up doors, in general extremely hard to break in... and a climb through to the cab to get away quickly if need be. 🤷♂ Other than that: common sense not to stay in dangerous places, information of other travellers and the benefit of the doubt that people are much friendlier than we assume... at least that's our experience.

Isn't it nice that someone else can buy these vehicles and then let us travel with them vicariously. Not quite as good as doing it yourself, but one can always dream.
I mean, good on him for not parking his dreams but for most of us, I don't think it's a case of parking them so much as it is never being able to build up sufficient funds to get off the ground with it. A great life they're living though and I'm very happy for them. The truck is awesome too.
I'd really love the chance to get to drive one of these big custom RV rigs. That'd make my life. Don't think I could ever afford one and I definitely don't got the skill to build one. lol
Did you ask? Next time you see an ExpeditionVehicle, ask if you could drive it around the area. . [edited to add] lol lol lol etcetera etcetera etcetera.
Wow that is an incredible overlander. What is the cost breakdown for the the steyr truck? How much did the Krug living cabin cost? The living cabin is 5.2 meters is that correct?
We are originally from Austria and Germany but live in Switzerland… they cut this part out. 😅 I wished I had 3 mil… 😅😅 depending on your configuration something like this runs between 250-600k.
@chris, 2003, we built our ExpeditionVehicle on a 1996 Ford CF8000 commercial truck. Over two decades full-time live-aboard, our cost-of-operation is pennies a day. . Think beyond the initial investment. The benefits are life-changing, life-long. . [edited to add] 2003, our investment in our rig was us$4,500 (four thousand five hundred fedbux). After a devastating diagnosis, we acquired the foundation vehicle and completed our conversion -- while selling everything -- in less than a week. . What stops you. Who controls your goals.
01:38 First -- plan the interior. This determines the exterior dimensions. . If I engineered their interior, the exterior would be two meters/metres shorter, simplifying parking and manouveurs.

Brilliant van love it 👍
Wow that is an incredible overlander. What is the cost breakdown for the the steyr truck? How much did the Krug living cabin cost? The living cabin is 5.2 meters is that correct?
total was half of a house in switzerland he said, so about 3 million euro and some change
We are originally from Austria and Germany but live in Switzerland… they cut this part out. 😅
I wished I had 3 mil… 😅😅 depending on your configuration something like this runs between 250-600k.
@@Overlanding yeah just kidding, great rig btw
@@Overlanding thats quite a wide range, where does your specification fall on that scale at least give bit of a tighter range for this specific combo.
@chris,
2003, we built our ExpeditionVehicle on a 1996 Ford CF8000 commercial truck.
Over two decades full-time live-aboard, our cost-of-operation is pennies a day.
.
Think beyond the initial investment.
The benefits are life-changing, life-long.

2003, our investment in our rig was us$4,500 (four thousand five hundred fedbux).
After a devastating diagnosis, we acquired the foundation vehicle and completed our conversion -- while selling everything -- in less than a week.

Sehr geiler Truck, well done! Habt ihr den Steyr direkt von Excap bekommen?
Ja direkt über den Stefan gekauft.
So cool, awesome rig!
The search for the meaning of life…not gonna find it in that truck though. Happy searching.
We already found meaning. We just like to travel and enjoy our lives, thanks.
He's got himself a hell of a set up.
Bro this is a dream
This is exactly the sort of vehicle the Wild Thornberrys would drive irl
Your plans are good amen
Awesome overlander - Krug does an excellent job …..but my personal #1 choice would be the “Commander” build by SLRV in Australia.
So close to million views
Holy smokes what a tank
Looks like a damn war vehicle
Because... it was. One day
Beautiful !!!
This was an awesome video! God bless you guys
i deliver to an overland van place, these things are nuts.
Sure would make a good big foot exploring truck

First -- plan the interior.
This determines the exterior dimensions.
.
If I engineered their interior, the exterior would be two meters/metres shorter, simplifying parking and manouveurs.
Beautiful Home
I love to see rich people's toys now that we have social media it keeps me dreaming.
