[The Heretic]

My current rigs:

'92 XCab 4x4 with Tacoma wheels. This rig has a badly slipping clutch so I rarely use it on public roads. Mostly for use on my residential mountain property (16 acres, 5 forested in the PNW).

My truck - '97 Dodge 3500 4x4 flatbed with Cummins (plan is to convert this to an RV if I can find/afford the right habitat box for it)

Daily driver - '14 BMW X1

I am thinking about whether to convert the pickup to an EV or put a MB diesel into it, full float the rear axle, and flat tow it behind the truck after I convert the truck to an RV.

Also, noticed a BJ40 with 3B diesel and LHD locally. I am thinking maybe that might be a better tow rig and less expensive than the pickup (after conversion of the pickup).
