    My cousin has a camper very much like this built on a 90 Chevy chassis. They’ve been all over the US in it and as far south as Costa Rica and it doesn’t even have 4wd. This is the coolest rig.

    1:48 Random tidbit for anybody else that doesnt know, do NOT drive around and display or use the Canadian Red Cross logo, its against the Geneva Convention to have or display any red cross with a white background because of the intent and purpose of what the symbol means. Not nitpicking the video in any way, just happened to notice where they removed it from the side as this was an old military ambulance basically and wanted to bring it up and mention it for others.

    What a great build, I’ve seen some British people do the same with a Land Rover army field ambulance, think this Humvee is cooler though, they make great vehicles to convert and are built for rough terrain too.

    For the receptacles, I believe it was Leviton making ones with spring loaded connections which would be nice for the vibrations. Also, the four little "ears" on the receptacles can be removed to allow it to sit flush in the old work style boxes.

    The Humvee is becoming a legend in Japan, as it is no longer seen in Japan due to issues with its width, maintenance costs, vehicle inspection fees, and fuel efficiency. Turning it into a camper shows that Americans are quick to think and adapt.

You made a full-fledged kitchen and a toilet block, which is good, but the sleeping space turned out to be a little small, don’t you think so??
