It's been out for awhile now. I've been waiting to win lotto for at least a year so I could buy one of these. :Y:

That is one serious camper right there. I wonder what size vehicle you need to tow it. It looked like a Landy and a ram that was being used.

Lots of composites are in it Rick, light and strong.

Base price for the exp 6 is $160,000.
Here is one with a few options

A mate flew up there and went through a quote with the design team, with his options
came in at $191,000. Not sure if he is going ahead, wait time was 10 months.

No offence to OP, should this be in the Camping section ?

In my searches for Teardrop campers, I came across this brand and their various models.

Some serious engineering and thought into these, but at the price and structure I wondered just how big the market is for these in Australia

It is not priced ridiculously compared to well outfitted RV's or top end vans, but I think you would have to be pretty serious in your adventures
to buy one, or win lotto and blow it before the kids ask for a hand out.



I really do like their work, but if something did break, I would have to take a class before I could fix it, even with the back up's built in.

Jeeze that would be murder to Tow in soft sand or Mud, It weighs 2850kgs, Most Vehicles Towing weight is based on On-road Driving, Weighing in at nearly 3Ton you would need something the size of a Big Ram for F-250/350 to drag that around off road. and it's onlt 22ft long.

Any other normal 4x4 should be able to Tow in On Road, but that's as far as I'd wanna take it.

There is no Landy in that vid.

There is a Landcruiser and a Ram however.

'Landy'entered the vernacular way back with the launch of the series 1 in the late 1940s and the term has stuck since.
Toyota didnt launch the Lancruiser until the early 1950s.

Landrover even went so far as to try and trademark the term Landy quite recently iirc

Just some useless info that some may find interesting!

Doh! layful:

 

[diggit]

Have to say though this seems targeted at the American market or the soft roading community....I don't think a 3 ton trailer before extras would go well outback.

 

[Greenhornet_au]

Maybe they have targeted a market that has $ to spare and needs the portable quarters.

Thinking military-ish concept.

Wealthy bush basher with the biggest bestest new toy (oh US market)

Forgot it was nearly 3Ton.

 

[Redfin]

Their biggest market is overseas.
