Nice rig, good video. Bull bars and animal strikes. Just a thought, I have lived and travelled extensively in western Canada for the past 42 years. In all that driving I have hit 1 white-tailed deer with a Toyota corolla, it dented my front fender and hood. And I have had many close calls with mule and white-tailed deer That said I have colleagues who have narrowly avoided death when hitting a moose. Elk or bison (some parts of northern BC, Alberta) could be similarly disastrous. It happens but it's not a regular occurrence in most places. I think the bull bar rationale should be a little more thought out than simple animal strikes. They're good if you go down lots of in-grown trails (they're sometimes called brush bars), good for holding a winch and lights, recovery points, and the right bumper design can be incorporated with skid plates. Would I get one? Yes, for all the reasons listed.
They spared no expense. This build is so awesome, however you could literally buy a pretty decent truck with the amount of money they spent on lights alone. Seriously though, there's more lights on this than Bryce Menzies trophy truck. 😂
I just went to the 4 wheel camper website and built a camper. It was $62,000 without a flatbed tray. You looking at $150,000+ for one all set up with a diesel F-350 SRW
Took my FWC Flatbed Hawk off-road in the North Maine Woods with Ron Harrington of Ridgeback Guide Service. Similar Carli suspension setup with Dever springs, no airbag. Ran trails like a champ in my MLO build.
I’d head straight out west with that rig
Love the build!!! should have a counter for the word "super" on this video.

My first concern is under payload capacity? So when I add people, pets, & gear, I don't go over payload capacity!
Alaska
is the truck an 8ft bed model? or did you add a Norweld 8ft to a shorter truck.
Any reason you went with an f-350 vs an f-250 or even a 150?
great build ! Total cost of this unit ?

Nice rig for sure but far too large to get down many trails.

@@peterhvizdak4067 That is awesome and I hope that you continue to enjoy your rig!
@@gregeigsti3280 thank you. I was pleasantly surprises. Some pinstripes on the Hawk, but well earned.
North of $200k for sure!
Get a nice dirt bike
Nice vehicle but, unfortunately North American diesel. Gas will be much, much Better.
