Man, I've been sold on the idea of this nomadic thing for many many years and seeing your rig and hearing your pitch; only makes me urn for it worse than ever. Thanks for the walk through.
This is a really cool rig! Updating it the way you have, removing the rear seats and incorporating Alexa is great and really modernizes it. I love using Alexa around my house. Yes, it’s a little gimmicky, but it’s nice to just let her do things. It’s particularly helpful when I control all my Christmas lights in and especially outside the house. This is a great size rig for a couple, but especially for a solo nomad, and you still have the overhead bed for guests. Thanks for sharing. This is the first time I’ve ever seen this type of Rv.
Nice rig, you have everything you need in it. I like the fact it is 4 doors, you don't see many like this. You have an upbeat personality, thanks for sharing. Happy travels
I’ve been fascinated by Revcon for several years! I actual owned a Revcon motor home (1984) class A! Totally different front wheel drive MH. However, this 4 wheel drive version is remarkable and I would love to own one someday! Thanks for the tour of this updated version! Happy travels!
@@nothanksguy Standard E4OD. Word around the campfire is these things eat them up. They were never up for the grunt the 7.3 could produce and now you're hauling around 11,000 lbs. I'd be shocked if the tranny lasted 50k miles.
Friend of mine had one brand new off the line, number 15 or 16, maybe 17 I'm not great at remembering those details. I fell in love with traveling because of her Revcon. My dream is to own one, when I win the lotto, lol. Beautifully done!
You did a great job sharing the Revcons features, and conversions you made. Chill, explanatory with thought and care how you presented this video . Thank you!
I love the look of the Revcon! I like the changes to the interior too! I'd rather have a nice comfy bed than a large dinette too. Live his enthusiasm! Backpacking and traveling through so many countries, I bet he has some great and interesting stories to tell. Great tour. Thanks!
Sheesh! This guy is doing it.. I could only imagine living from your motorcycle for so long and making what's sounds like an amazing journey. Keep on keeping on, safe travels.
A really nice cool guy, Excellent set up. A simple respectful simple life wisdom and a really nice example of how easily ppl could live a more happy fulfilling lives.
I have to say that this is truly unique rig you have there. Never seen one quite like it. Hell...never even knew that 66 others ever even existed! This was a very interesting Vid and some very welcome information on these RVs. Thank you for that.
Revcon RV's are truly badass. I always liked the concept as it reminded me of a Tiger Rv. Anytime you put a living space behind the chassis of a superduty you can't go wrong. Dream Rv would be this with a brand new crate 7.3 Powerstroke
Love the look of the revcon very nice layout inside nice that it is a 4X4 that could be handy in some places nice and spaciouse , this fella is so blessed to own one of these .
JP, you've done a great job getting this rig cleaned up and personalized for your own lifestyle. I see you haven't adopted Kevin's approach for a toilet though 😂. It was fun seeing this rig in person and helping to get the solar on the roof.
Stickers should read "6x4" A lot of weird "vocational" heavy duty trucks are set up like this where the front axle is powered but only one of the rear axles is powered. The backmost rear axle acts as a tag axle like in this rig(or on a Prevost bus). If only one rear axle is powered its a "6x2", if all 3 axles are powered its a "6x6"
I had one for 3 years, we went thru a few transmissions, I felt the tag axle caused stress on Transmission, beyond that it was alot of fun, I heard it is in a field somewhere near LA
I was really curious to know if this had the E4OD transmission. I'm just going to assume from your post it does. Those were not good transmissions. Even when well maintained in a regular pickup you were luck to get 150k miles. I can see a rig of this size just burning through them. The only upside is they are cheap to rebuild compared to modern transmissions.
I am amazed to see this. I saw one in Columbia, California parked near me in a campground. Fascinating. It definitely was huge for a "chassis mount" with it's extended framework. That would have been 1992 or 1993. About the time that Ford was also doing semi-custom design with F-350 LWB, double-cab pickups and turn them into what appeared to be a redesign based on the Chevy Blazer and Dodge Ramchargers with their removable fiberglass tops. Sort of an open-air Expedition or leave them closed.
WOW I wonder why they stopped making them. The chassis would need to be strong in the middle. Great layout. Bigger then a van. You have thought of everything. Safe travels.
@@harryo6126 and also copied from an Appollo RV . In the mid 70's the german company Hymer bought both and shipped them to Germany to copy the design and make the first European " supervan " German built and put on a Mercedes LP813 Lorry chassis with a six litre Mercedes diesel engine . perhaps the rarest production motorhome in the world
Revcon is one of rarest RV vehicles in history. It’s very difficult to search Revcon from any RV ads. JP Smith is luckiest guy to purchase RV camper from old guy. This RV vehicle is vintage but it’s cool to use for nice adventures. It’s flexibility to stay inside of vehicle. It’s enough space for 2 people. JP Smith is very active to journey all over the place. I’m concerning to looking for “RAM” RV camper vehicles. That’s modern technology.
Wow, have never had nor seen a Revcon but did have a Lance 950 slide in on a '97 F350 diesel dually and it was darn close. But that thing is the tits!!!!
Those are neat trucks. Only things I see that kinda bother me is the rear overhang. I think if the rear axle Assembly was designed about 15" or so further back, it would be more stable looking. Don't mind me though, I'm not very familiar with rv rigs. Just judging it from outside the box if you will. I can also see issues with drivetrain problems. Not sure what the engine power is like, but I'm sure it wouldn't hurt to put some massive upgrades on it for better power and efficiency. I watched another TH-camr who has one, that had issues with the fuel pump, and was dumping raw fuel into the crankcase. Big potential for the engine to fail. Luckily he caught the issue in time and fixed it promptly. So, I would be weary of that. The transmission, if it were me, I'd get an oversized transmission fluid cooler with a fan on it, set to a certain temperature, and also have a valve set up on it so the fluid will flow through it once the temps get to 120* or so. I'd bypass the factory one is it's in the radiator like most trans coolers were made back in those days. To me it makes no sense to cool a transmission with fluid or a chamber around the trans cooler with 200* coolant. It just cooks the transmission. Keeping it at around 140-160* is best for the internals. Given what I went through with the regular trucks I owned though that era, keep the transmission very cool is essential. They are all too easy to destroy them with even just basic use, nevermind the extra duty of hauling or towing something. The exhaust side is something else to look into, for better efficiency. All to often these systems in these trucks and others are restrictive and rob the engine if power. I'd look into products like banks power, and various other diesel aftermarket parts manufacturers for some upgrades. I like how it's decked out on the inside as well, even for being 30 years old. This would be cool to have, and pull a trailer with for us folks who like racing. :) have an enclosed trailer with your hot rod in it and go track to track. Good luck with the truck. 😊
some one near st helena california has one, i would see it get taken to a local automotive shop for repairs. even have pictures of it :D, looks even better in person !
The reason they stopped making them is they were basically a front wheel drive. The rear was worthless and would just spin on wet grass, mud and gravel because the rear axle was not powered, you had to put it in four wheel drive to engage the front wheels to get you of the grass, mud or gravel. Just going up a steep entrance to a roadway can leave you spinning the rear front axle and get you stuck.
Wow crazy to see those. My Dad was a fabricator that made those. I remember going to his work when they made them .I'm going to show him this video.
My Dad has alzimer I showed him this video today he got a huge smile and started talking about fabricating them.

yes, until this video I thought all Revcon's were front wheel drive.
Is it a 4x6 or a 6x6? No hate, just wondering if its a all wheel drive (6x6) or are just the 2 back axles drive axles(4x6)?
@@larsmeijerink5471 Pretty sure the steer axle is driven as well as the front axle at the rear. The back rear axle is not driven.
@thisnthat3530 so in that case it would be a 6x4. Out of the 6 wheels, 4 are driven. So 6x4, not 4x4
@@larsmeijerink5471 Yep. I think they start out with a 4x4 F350, then slap a tag axle on the rear but don't bother to change the stickers.
There was one of these for sale here in North Idaho some years back and I drooled over it for a long time, awesome to see another one out and about.
The best of both worlds! One the best model F-series trucks (in my opinion) Ford has ever made and a comfortable camper with the necessities... 👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾
It was not made by Ford. They would fabricate all that. It was a regular truck they would extend the frame .
As long as you keep it rust free in the frame, it will be great! Transmission can be an issue if automatic
