well it's clearly a scam, i had found one for sale for 625k and i already thought it was way overpriced, but 1.2 million? it didn't cost them over 250k to build, so that price is insane for what it is. i'm pretty sure i could get an unimog with a luxury cabin at the rear for less money than that thing.

The funniest part of this to me was the guy from the company sitting in the back as they're offroading, just staring into the back of the camper as if he's watching for what's going to break. 😅 This thing is the biggest waste of 1.2 million dollars I have ever seen, it legitimately failed at everything. Driving down the road even you can see the entire truck flexing in a very unhealthy way, it's no wonder that driveshaft imploded.

For 1.2 Mill I would have expected something on say an OshKosh or MAN truck chassis. Not an F550 with (presumably) stock drivetrain components and this HUUUUUUUUUUUUUGEEEEEEE shell stuck on. I would love to see the Donut dudes go out there with a Atacama 6300 and put that bad boy to the test.

Bro, if someone tried to sell me that piece of shit for 1.2 mil I would absolutely laugh at them. It's a sucker truck for sure, purchased by people with too much money and not enough sense or experience to know that the intentions are good but the execution is at best, mid. I'd also like to point out that for 1.2 mil you can also buy a palatial estate in any state in the country. You could also buy a top of the line diesel pusher RV or a HUGE off road vehicle and an off-road trailer for easily less than 25% of the purchase price of 1.2 mil. Alternatively, you too could buy a 550 and the baddest ass camper bed you've ever seen for around 80k total.

It’s called low volume production fee. Except this thing will not make it to production. They have to hire a team to design & build it. Imagine ford f150 cost 2 million to design, another 2 million for assembly line, the more they sell, the more ppl share that cost. If they can only sell one, that’s going to be a 4 million dollar f150. So for companies like this to survive, they have to come up with something super cool, patented designs etc. and people willing to pay. This company… my god😂

27North Inc., a leading innovator in expedition vehicles, is thrilled to announce the triumphant journey of our 27North prototype truck, which became the first official Class C expedition truck to conquer the formidable 30-degree slopes of California. We take immense pride in this accomplishment as it signifies a significant milestone in our mission to engineer robust and versatile vehicles for outdoor enthusiasts and adventurers. During this groundbreaking expedition, our team gained invaluable insights that will shape the future development of the 27North model. As a result, we have committed to enhancing the vehicle's performance and efficiency. This includes reducing the weight from the current 18,000lbs loaded to 15,000lbs, ensuring improved agility and maneuverability on rugged terrains. Additionally, we will be upgrading the driveshaft to expedition version and partnering with a leading industry suspension company to double the rear axle's capabilities. Furthermore, we are excited to announce our collaboration with Liquid Spring, as we transition from an air suspension to a liquid spring suspension system, providing unparalleled stability and ride comfort. In our relentless pursuit of excellence, we are already gearing up for the next round of testing. The upgraded prototype will undergo rigorous evaluation in the fall of 2023, where we expect it to surpass expectations and further cement its status as the epitome of class-leading expedition vehicles. Stay tuned for more updates as we continue to push the boundaries of innovation in the world of outdoor exploration.

It's so overweight it couldn't handle pavement, much less dirt. And it's on an F550. They practically had the world to work with and still went massively overweight.

But both of that you can get cheaper with a off-road trailer and rig. + i did like to think that we do it more to get outside of our houses and get to really feel nature on those trips!

We take immense pride in this accomplishment as it signifies a significant milestone in our mission to engineer robust and versatile vehicles for outdoor enthusiasts and adventurers. During this groundbreaking expedition, our team gained invaluable insights that will shape the future development of the 27North model. As a result, we have committed to enhancing the vehicle's performance and efficiency. This includes reducing the weight from the current 18,000lbs loaded to 15,000lbs, ensuring improved agility and maneuverability on rugged terrains. Additionally, we will be upgrading the driveshaft to expedition version and partnering with a leading industry suspension company to double the rear axle's capabilities. Furthermore, we are excited to announce our collaboration with Liquid Spring, as we transition from an air suspension to a liquid spring suspension system, providing unparalleled stability and ride comfort. In our relentless pursuit of excellence, we are already gearing up for the next round of testing. The upgraded prototype will undergo rigorous evaluation in the fall of 2023, where we expect it to surpass expectations and further cement its status as the epitome of class-leading expedition vehicles. Stay tuned for more updates as we continue to push the boundaries of innovation in the world of outdoor exploration.

I wonder what kind of interface they have between the front cab and the camper because even from the inside you can see the back half twisting around so much it looks like it's going to rip right off the body mounts. I imagine it won't take long for rain to start leaking through that. Thing is flimsy as hell. Loads of non-structural weight and no actual structural pieces to stiffen it and hold it together. They had a 5 inch diameter drive shaft that twisted itself to an inch wide pretzel at the smallest point, there's no material there, might as well have been made out of cardboard.

Look at a F150 with a moderate load and you will see similar flex. The bed just seems to live it's own life. If the camper was attached the same way as the normal bed then it will flex just the same way. And with the added height of the camper it will be a lot easier to see as the movement is exaggerated at the top of the cab compared to down low where the bed usually ends. Is it too much flex? Will it break the camper or the frame? I don't know, but it sure doesn't look safe.

​@@ohgeazythey had a steal pipe that is capable of being turned into a drive shaft, they had to take the ends off of the existing drive shaft and connect it to the pipe that they got, That is no easy feet because if you make one mistake will your measuring you're f***** and you got to go get a new pipe and he did it first try without issue

@@jspntr Keep in mind people do not have real world experiance. They want luxury and that cost weight. I would happily pay for a truck camper that looks like a topper yet expands out to cover a large amount of the truck. Think a army drash tent that expands out and is insulated. Electric heat, cooling and cooking can be provided by a nice battery and the power can be light weight panels that you can either lay out or hang off the tent.
