@pinkskud that is because Europeans do not know how to make off road vehicles, If it didnt flex it would break. Are you french by any chance?

Okay super genuises, the frame has to flex to go over rough terrain. It’s not a commercial vehicle. ok? A little reading wouldn’t hurt you folks.

i dont think this will be prone to getting stuck, with those two hydraulic winches and the fact that you would have the gear you would need to get unstuck on board with you!

they flex for a reason :P it helps keep wheels on the ground. These chassis are actually designed for a certain amount of frame flex. Check out unicats website. This is a bonified hardcore expedition vehicle.

Yea that frame is some real junk it would flex on my driveway to no end, and a truck with that payload shouldn’t be bouncing and flexing like that. not even big motor homes would flex like that.

cool truck though!

Check out the Unicat web site. It is pretty cool. They even have models where the top raises up to make like a little loft area with a large bed. It’s pretty cool, I would buy one if I had an extra $ 600,000 to 1,000,000. Like thats going to happen. LOL

No the frame is …
No the frame is made to flex in a tortional manner. It helps to keep the wheels on the ground. There is a 3 point mount for the camper section so it does not flex.
For on road applications you want less flex but for off road ability you want more flex. If you go to the Unicat website they show the engineering that goes into these vehicles. It really is exceptional

really, you wanna think about that statement again. a truck carring 60,000-70,000 lbs(dumptrucks and semis) u think the frame should flex to a degree such as that? u are sadly mistaken.

“they really need to something about that frame. thats cary, i havenever seen a frame wabble that much, even on a dump truck”

I think you meant “scary” and “wobble”
Maybe you need to brush up on the facts jack. First of all the frame is built to flex, lot most off highway vehicles are.. and second the cabins ride on airbags so there’s some sway due to that.. nothing dangerous or poor design in any way.. In fact the MTX, if you know what that is, rides pretty awesome.

That was one longer torturous video to watch…I was waiting to see what the inside looked like…anyone can build a truck that handles that terrain…it’s the RV part that sets this vehicle apart…it would have been nice if you included some video of the interior and how it’s set up. Interesting truck…but a very limited market I would think. Good luck, but add some of the actual RV part of the rig…after all that’s what this is about…isn’t it!!??
