It is with mixed emotions that I report on the sale of our Sportsmobile. A fine gentlemen purchased it and I'm sure that he and his wife will enjoy it.
I'd like to extend a heartfelt thank you to all who have posted and commented here on the Forum. This place was a huge help as we considered the build and was a great resource as we planned adventures.
We would have kept the Sportsmobile as
it was perfect in every way. We put almost 75,000 miles on it in the two years of ownership. Our plan is to continue to log those kind of miles, if not more in the future. We felt that it would be the right thing to sell the rig to someone who was going to log "normal" miles and therefore be able to enjoy it for many years.
For those that are interested, we are going to purchse a very large truck chassis with 4x4 and single rear wheels that is rated to roll for around 1,000,000 miles. We are planning to commision Global Expedition Vehicles (GXV)
http://www.globalxvehicles.com to attach a camper / cabin on that for our living space.
Thank you again and I hope for all, a very Happy New Year!
