It would make a fine XXL Sportsmobile.

How about a 6x6 E450? Good stuff starts around 2:20

Re: Not a van...

What kind of steering control does that 6x6 have? Two steering wheels? The fronts and rears appear to be independent of each other.

The rig (tires) doesn't seem to like mud at all. But, it does have some good wheel travel.

I saw one of their other rigs at Potato Salad hill in Moab. Rear steering is hydraulic with electronic controls. There were a couple toggle switches. Probably one to steer with the front, the other to steer independently. Just a guess though, I did not get to actually talk to them.
