This rustic rig’s living area looks cozy enough to stay the night in.
The M1078 is used by the United States military for transporting troops and supplies wherever they are needed. This video shows the M1078 in action as it is now one of the most impressive and powerful overlanders. It has the rugged appearance you would expect from a military truck and looks very utilitarian. The rear of the cabin is bright and spacious, which would not look out of place on a magazine cover. The entire build cost $37,000 and included the purchase of the M1078 to make it even more impressive.

The living room has the feel of a cozy cabin. The living area has light wood floors and an LED light accent. It also features lots of white finishes. This creates a modern, clean appearance. The bed is hidden near the ceiling during the day. But, the crank turns it to make it usable at night. The bathroom has a large shower and is spacious, which is a big improvement on the small ones found in motorhomes.
It is vital that the truck provides livable conditions so it can travel far from the grid. The roof’s solar cells charge lithium-ion battery packs and provide enough electricity to power heating and air conditioning for days.
The M1078 is powered by a Caterpillar-supplied diesel motor and has a full-time, four-wheel-drive system. This makes it a slow truck, but a fast home, according to the owner.
The couple who own the truck quit their jobs to devote all they had to it. They now spend their time driving. This seems like a great way to live.
