As we drove away, I saw a twenty something in a sports jersey get into it and drive away. Would have been interesting to talk to him but missed it.
Today at Costco, we ran into a German couple in a Winnebago Revel.
Very nice unit.

This type of home built camper gives the rest of the RV community a bad name.

With the drag of that flat front wall, slats on the sides, roof overhang and that little truck engine, I don’t think anywhere near 70mph would be achievable ;)

It's built more like a house and is probably unsafe to be on the truck. The wood stove if done correctly (most likely not) is safe enough and cheap to run, but that thing is WAY TO SMALL for any wood stove I've ever seen.

I've thought about building my own TC, but never got around to it.

Chimney for wood stove on top
Roof overhang and slope may cause lift on Highway

A little bit eccentric , would havl problems. You get a lot of home built TC's in Australia that are generally built by professional builders for the owners specifications or built by an owner/ builder

That house front window better have tempered glass.
