B350 van. Some sort of "hybrid" Class B/C. Basically take the Dodge cab & chassis and build an aero "box" around 20' long & 8' wide for the "house". Features to include:

12V Cummins Diesel with minor mods aimed at economy.
5 or 6 speed manual transmission.
2 speed rear end or Gear Vendors overdrive.
Tire selection to maximize economy.
Full fairings on the "Box"
Ground effects: Air dam & side skirts as appropriate.
Smooth wheel covers.
Partial wheel skirts.
Airbag suspension that will allow me to lower the rig when needed.
General "smoothing" of the exterior as I am able.


Here you go...
