Pensioner converts Mercedes-Benz truck into off-grid motorhome
Original source: Тамбов

A UK resident named Tony converted a former Dragoman tour truck on a Mercedes-Benz Atego chassis, designed for 24 passengers, into a fully off-grid motorhome. The purchase cost £5,000, and the conversion took about a month. The roof-mounted solar panels produce 2,000 W and charge a 16 kWh battery; water capacity is 610 litres, with a backup generator. The interior includes a kitchen with an induction hob and Ninja oven, a bathroom with a shower, and a lounge that converts into a sleeping area. The project is not finished: additional cabinets and a wardrobe are planned.
