I saw no means of ventilation, for instance, nothing roof top, nothing for cooking inside . Mind you, I don't cook inside if at all possible, but my husband does like his first cup of coffee while i'm still lazing in the bed. I don't know if the self charging thing is necessary? Can one just pull up into a campsite and plug into the 30/50A power stanchion?
No cupboards, no closet for one's jackets...

It's pretty and streamlined but gosh, I think it's another flash in the pan sort of camper.
Watch YouTube where the give a tour. All your questions will be answered.
The builder says it does not need a sway bar or WDH because the trailer wheels have motors.

Hopefully soon someone will design a cutting edge TT with many of these things incorporated into the unit, that is, with solar panels built in, streamlined, well insulated, good on board generator...but... not TOO big...

They're asking for down payments, and haven't built the factory yet? Can you spell SCAM?

Of course there is a line from a movie I remember is that "the easiest mark for a conman is another conman". In reality that in many cases the "the comman" actually fully believes their con and are equally conned by the con.
I am not so sure this is a scam. But I am pretty sure like 90% sure that not a single one will be built other than possible prototypes which would not be of a format that could even be sold. That is I think this one is a plan that can never work. But in looking at all of it, I am thinking that it is 50/50 that the people in charge of this believe their own hype and are sure they are onto something.


But I sure would never put a downpayment on one, even if I was interested. Lets face it "glamping" is not my thing.

I regularly have people driving up to try to buy my Scamp and a few others things I have. Many times it starts with "I want to buy your Scamp" then one of my Jeeps and or my pontoon boat or 4wheeler. I tell them they are not for sale, to then hear them say "everything is for sale" my answer is no not here. I'm about to start telling them yes it's for sale the cost is 45 K. Cash in hand only. My Scamp is due a replacement axle from time now as it's a 2010 and sagging, my Jeep that many are trying to buy from me is from a limited production run of less than 9000 made in that configuration and model. In relatively good condition. The fiberglass T.T.s do hold value vs stick built I've had more than a few friends who are on 2,3 or 4th since I bought mine. The problems with them are well known issues many of us here already know. Needed tow vehicle and fuel costs let alone potential leaks are biggest ones. I'm sure that most of the fiberglass T.T manufacturers are doing well especially by not throwing out a metric ton of them quick and fast loaded with problems.

Several years ago, when the only 1/4 ton pickup available was Toyota's Tacoma, (Ford had quit making the Ranger) I would routinely get offers to buy my 1999 Pre Runner (2 wd and 4 cylinder) . It was almost always by a guy in his mid twenties, too. She's not for sale, I still have her- but I never really understood why. I don't get those offers anymore, and I'm glad. Now if anyone out there is interested in buying 'our' pontoon boat...it's called a "fishcat", I'm willing to sell it. For pennies on the dollar, just so i can get it out of my garage.

Frontier? It has been in continuous production and competes directly with the Tacoma. They did drop the 4 cylinder option in 2020, if that's what you mean.

I have fond memories of a '98 Frontier I owned. King cab, 4 cylinder, 4WD, manual transmission, manual transfer case, manual hubs. It was a fun truck.

I don't know what you mean by Frontier. My Toy Tacoma is a 1999 Pre Runner, whatever that is worth, with the six foot bed,''extended cab"...meaining a pair of jump seats behind the drivers and passenger seat that a little kid MIGHT be able to fit into, 2 WD and 4 cylinder. If toyota made something called a Frontier I am unaware of it, but I never did and probably never will follow what the car companies do every year.

Sorry I wasn’t clear. Nissan Frontier. You suggested there was no direct competition to the Tacoma once the Ranger was discontinued. Frontier was available and made models similar to Tacoma, including basic 4 cylinder versions.
