This may be the same "rig." It looks like the side panels open up to reveal the windows. That would explain the "inside" view.
This is a nice looking rig.

Saw this critter at the Albuquerque Balloon Fiesta. Netherlands tags I think. The box looks to be a cut down shipping container. Not much room inside but there are not too many places you cannot go in it.

I'll keep my rolling condo thankyou.

The owners of a Unicat TGA 33.480 MAN with the 7.0m popup camper, that we travelled with in Morocco and France, told me they get about 40L/100km, or about 6mpg. I get ~8.7mpg with my Unimog U500 with 4.8m camper. Mileage drops when on anything worse than a good dirt road.
However, gasoline powered class Cs get similar mileage with zilch offroad capability. And 1/2 to 1/3 the weight.
Mr. River Otter, what kind of mileage does your pickup get towing your big TT? How does it do in deep mud or up and down sand dunes, towing the TT?

WOW! I always thought that fuel mileage on these was measured in 'gallons' per mile, not the other way around
