Fabio's is a Campion Trans-Star. Similar rig though, halfway between camper van and motor home. Big 8cyl engine chugs that gas, but will get you there quick. :lol:

He did a really nice job refinishing it, spent a few bucks on a pro paint job, and it was shocking how much better it looked. Note to self: if selling an RV, spend $1k on paint to gain $10k in price.

The self driving option would be great for the Oregon Coast trips. :D
Hopefully he comes up with a van soon.

That backpack definitely needs to be rocket powered. The Cybertruck is begging for a Westfalia pop top :lol: .

But if you're in Gold Beach looks like you'll have to hit up <a href="/https://www.oregon.gov/ODOT/Programs/El ... V_4-15.pdf" target="_blank">Brookings or Port Orford to charge</a>. Not to mention have fun waiting for a charge while it's windy :P. I get anxious enough stuck in traffic or having to stop a few mins for gas when it's cranking.

Pop tops are definitely easier to load and unload than full height.
