Nobody buys a Unimog for fuel economy, but my 12 ton U500 camper gets better mpg than one of those 6.5 ton junkheaps.

I was thinking more on the lines of a diesel "pusher" , more top end than the economy model gas , or FRED 7.5 tonne models , dont think you would call those shoddy construction, and they are much sturdier build than anything on the european scene , which are very much built within significant weight restrictions. Did consider modifying a Mog for a while having owned one whilst in Australia , but same sort of vehicle as the 110 . Horses for courses
