My third visit by a Swiss camper in a year....!! I love it!!!

[mwilson]

Today I had the pleasure of meeting Bruno and his '06 CTD 6-speed. The aluminum flatbed under the camper was a work of art....

He is starting cross country today, has commitments in Oregon two weeks from now.

Very nice man, his English was better n' mine.....

A few quick pics for you all....

I really dig that setup. Is this a TDR member?

I don't think so. He is good friends with Ozy I believe. I'll try and talk him into it.....

 

[mwilson]

Two spare tires and the auxiliary fuel tank live in the storage compartment right behind the truck's cab.

That's a neat looking rig.

Ozy

I had to be in Houlton today so he met me here. Worked out very well.

We were talking about your new camper and he said that you did very nice work. I said that you were fussy, apparently there is no Swiss word for fussy so I had to go with perfectionist....

Now you can drink your coffee with style again....

Yes!!! Thanks so much by the way....I plan to test the purity when I get home...:-laf

Very cool rig. The regcab looks perfect but then I own one too.

I don't understand why these European trucks are so clean. They drive on cotton?

 

[mwilson]

A couple of observations....

These are spare vehicles as a rule, have cars to drive to work and such...

Bruno's frame was treated just like Ozy's, they take corrosion protection very seriously....

These are weekend and vacation vehicles but get driven to the extreme...both Bruno and Ozy have taken their trucks to the Sahara Desert and Ozy goes to the Arctic Circle whenever he gets the chance so they are not babied...

 

[mwilson]

I love those LED taillights, Bruno hunted the internet forever to find those. Remind me of Lego blocks for some reason...

 

[Shadrach]

Those swiss people must be real short to fit into that camper

 

[Ozymandias]

Yeah, Perfectionist is pretty right, it makes me go nuts if something doesn't fit right or just looks not nice. So I need a hell of Time to do the build up. I'll show some pics when I finished the job.
