That's a pretty cool invention!
If the economy keeps going the way it has been, I bet those may become very popular.

That's cool but where's the side door?

Pretty neat set up!

Something tells me that if someone came knocking on your camper at 3am you wake up with a big headache.

Is that a computer keyboard and screen where the driver's seat is supposed to be? And why are the drawers numbered? I'm not convinced. I tried to sleep in the back of a Jeep Cherokee two nights and felt like I was sleeping in a shoe box...this has to be worse.
But then, if you'd spent the day on the road in that thing, you'd probably be able to sleep anywhere.

Thought you'd guys get a kick out of it. All it needs is a toilet and shower. I'd personally feel like a sardine all the time, but then again, these have about as much room or more as volkswagen type 4 squareback, And I camped in one of those for 3 years, someone modified it with a pop top like the busses. You could fold down the back seat and sleep with your head against the front seat backs. Was enough room to sit up and four to five people could cram in to smoke a joint, lol!!!

I have to agree that the desks are in the way. Number one there just doesn't seem to be enough room up front to squeeze that desk in with the drive and controls. Now if it were removable, that would be cool. He(designer) has cut off the left door with it. Also the desk in the back is in the way, keeps you from being able to get in and out through the back, should be retractable/fold up. I like the picture were the guy's sitting on the tail gate, though. If there was a little pull out chair/couch type thing, then the desk could be used to set a laptop up and access it while sitting out back, would make a scenic web surfing spot, lol.
