    Talk Me Out of My Fascination With Owning an LMTV

    Love this thread.. Check out Exodus Expeditionary Vehicles out of Swansboro NC, short drive from you on the coast. The short answer is, we all love these trucks, so you should probably ask a Toyota forum for the bad news. The long answer is: For a farm, ranch, short term driver, not bad in the...

    FMTV Pre-Production Prototypes

    VERY nice write ups Toaster, Great interesting read. We purchased a PRE production MTV tanker, that was converted to a 1086 MHV LWB crane by Stewart and Stevenson to keep up with the ordered contracts. It appears that they placed some of the pre production units in service/ contract when...

    Exodus Expeditionary Trucks (M1086 MTV, WRanger MTV 13, 97 Rialta V15)

    No DOT belt install required, its just like a high end 5th wheel. All my HAB builds that can be, are RVIA certified.

    Exodus Expeditionary Trucks (M1086 MTV, WRanger MTV 13, 97 Rialta V15)

    I remember the old slide lockouts- We built on to a custom ABI bus that had the lockouts on the doors, shut down the whole truck- wiring nightmare. Our MTV slides have no locks, you can drive all over the mountains with the slides out, lol. They are soooo easy to maintain, once you know how to...

    concern is valid, I recommend a little RAndD to match departure angles at 40degrees, ( or whatever your truck is) We customized the trailer to match our MTV , I believe at 6.4 feet tongue length. We usually drop trailer, and equip at camp sites prior to doing heavy ditches.

    Overland Class A RV - MTV AUSSY Interior

    good info. Figured somthing out too.. we insulated the cab so well, I can carry on a conversation comfortably with the passenger, And for the HAB, cameras with audio... I just listen for the screaming. Then look to see if its really important or if their really sinking back there. :)

    I would recommend avoiding the chinese knock offs, Initial price is great, But they are poor quality. After 5200 miles, I have 2 cameras that the seals have broken and they have fogged out. I will replace the units, but I cannot reconend the LCT brand dvr cam system

    Just the rear for the locker, Setting up a locker for the intermediate axle will: 1. Wear our your tires quick 2. Wear out your wallet quicker 3. You dont need it, the rear locker on the 6x6 will climb a tree.

    Check this out: We researched, ( tore up) several slide systems. “Overlanders” swear that no slides shall ever enter the kingdom, we tried them anyway, and eventually ended up with the cable system. We retrofitted replacement HIgh Output motors, and heavy duty axles. After 6300 miles of...
