It's a strange bird to say the least. I wonder if they've actually produced / sold any of them or not.

I wonder what campgrounds you would actually be able to pull that monster into really
you'd never get it into most places I go. it looks like a cut up buss. add to that the length of that way cool F-750 ST with Its own bathroom? that thing is sick! sounds like enough for me to "camp" in by its self. but its all too huge for me. gimme a tent and a sleeping bag

I am guessing (knowing Russia), prodigious amounts of vodka would probably be mandatory before getting behind the wheel too...

They remind me of the a lot of the campers we would get back in Oz actually:
Australian built "OKA" 4x4


Converted Hino COE 4x4


Customized Australian built ACCO 6x6

I think Winnebago is an Indian word meaning, "view of the world, as seen from level pavement."

That one Adrian posted is pretty sweet, I would love to do something like that and just cruise around.
