On our recent two month/7,500 KM driving trip around the east part of Australia (Cape Tribulation to Adelaide) we did see a number of what I would refer to as "great off road RV's" like the MAN-based one here. Many based on Japanese medium duty all wheel drive trucks. I suspect excellent choices for the outback.
BUT (yes, large but) in visiting with several of the owners, they were less than happy with the ride on highways, speed and handling on highways and fuel consumption.
Probably a matter of matching the machine to the desired area of operation.
I did enjoy seeing the occasional (very occasional) Class A diesel pusher with a roo guard in front. A very good idea given the number of kangaroos we saw-- kind of like armadillos and deer on the Texas highways.
Something you need to understand before you get one, you Defintely have to match the machine to the operation you want
YUP. And the worst I have seen is the Germans who come over here with Unimog-based RV's which they then drive mostly on the highway in the U.S. and Mexico. NOT a good match of machine for intended use since 99% of the time we were driving a 36' DP over the same exact roads!
