Sunliner Habitat : Ford Ranger based Motorhome

Interesting! Thanks for sharing.

I like the IVECO. Thanks for posting.

Door's on the wrong side.

I like the little Ranger, a lot!

The price would be prohibitive, getting one here to Germany and legally registered on our roads would come out around 105000EUR / 122000USD, including transport cost, taxes and import duties, registration. Provided they'd make a LHD version. RHD is perfectly legal here, but you wouldn't be doing youself a favor, with all traffic situations being optimized for LHD vehicles.

Still, I like it. Its dimensions would fit in very well here.

I was going to mention that, but I've actually run across a few CG's where that would've been handy. ;)

The steering wheel is on the wrong side. The toilet flushes in the wrong direction. The whole thing is backwards. :)

Most importantly .... their engines don't have enough cylinders. :)

If it looks wrong, just flip the negative over and print it the other way.....

As to not enough cylinders, you don't know what is in there.
Seems I used to have a 1987 2.3 Ford that could eat 5.0 Mustangs and any Camero that I happened across. The only time I had to be careful was if I came on a Taurus SHO with the brake lights off - that made it a manual trans. He could beat me across the intersection (the others were close)and hold me on the run. The others would make about an half a length in the intersection, but when the turbo spooled up, all they saw were taillights.

Lots of kids with backwards baseball caps probably wondered what that fat old man in the T-bird just did to them.....

Company produces some very nice Class C’s. Unlike Europe we do not have a 7,700lb limit before you need too upgrade your licence

You sound like the old man I used to work for...daily driver was F-150 and had a SHO and T-bird in the garage. Never knew much about the SHO until I worked with him. He was a bit obsessed.
