For Sale: Mitsubishi Fuso FG Expedition Truck – a 4×4 Tiny House
Rolling onto the off-road scene is a behemoth that redefines the essence of mobile living and overlanding. The 2017 Mitsubishi Fuso FG – not just any truck, but a fully transformed, heavy-duty global expedition vehicle. If you’ve ever fancied cross-continent overland and expedition trips, this is the tiny house on wheels to cater to your wildest outdoor desires.
Proudly sporting just 4,000 miles, this behemoth is powered by a Fuso FG turbo diesel engine, nourished by a sizeable 56-gallon custom fuel tank. Trust the Canter Chassis on Leaf Spring suspension, augmented with shocks by Fuso Off Road, to effortlessly bear the weight of your adventures. Speaking of traction, TOYO’s grip on matte black All Terrain Warrior wheels ensures that no trail is too rugged. And for those unforeseen emergencies, a full spare has your back.
A Tiny House On Wheels
It’s no exaggeration to dub this vehicle’s outer shell as a ‘composite habitat’. Measuring a substantial 15′ x 6.5′ x 6.5′, this thermally efficient abode has protection for all four seasons. Energy-conscious souls will appreciate the dual solar array with its robust 810-watt capacity. Night explorers, the exterior dimmable flood lights, controllable from the coziness of the interior, are a treat.
Ease of access is guaranteed by a thoughtfully designed slide-out landing that mates with expandable stairs. Practicality shines with its 3 aluminum storage boxes and twin under-dinette hatches – all lit and powered. Every window is a German-crafted masterpiece by Outbound®, double-glazed, and utterly adjustable. And lest we forget, a KC light bar guides your nocturnal drives, commanded by a steering-wheel-adjacent switch.
Interior: Where Utility Marries Luxury
Step inside, and you’re greeted by a sanctuary engineered to perfection by the folks at Acme Truck and Overland. Batteries with a combined 600ah capacity by RELiON, a plethora of Victron Energy devices for all your charging and power conversion needs, and a connectivity suite that’s pre-wired for StarLink® showcase the technological prowess.
The kitchen boasts an electric induction stovetop, a Dometic fridge, and an ultra-pure water tap, thanks to a double filtration system. The bathroom, compact yet comprehensive, offers both indoor and outdoor shower options. Artistry is evident in the white oak flooring and detailed carpentry, while a dinette that morphs into a bed testifies to innovative design. Drivers aren’t forgotten – plush black leather seats by Scheel-man promise the ultimate driving comfort.
Added Gems
The in-cab entertainment system by Sony ensures your tunes are always on deck. Enhanced sound batting makes for a serene cabin environment, while safety upgrades like lane-keep warnings and proximity alerts prioritize your well-being. Transitioning between 2×4 and 4×4 is a mere button away, and an integrated camera system aids with those tricky spots.
