Japanese Housetruck

[rosy]

There is a Japanese website with an unusual 2-story housetruck. http://www1.ttcn.ne.jp/~gyo/index.htm The site is in Japanese, but the pictures are interesting even without reading. The housetruck (all such vehicles are called "camping car" there) has been in the media in Japan. There are many links to follow that show details of the housetruck and photos of a trip it made around Japan. Part way down the home page is a photo with a yellow background. The photo links to a video of the truck setting up its second floor "bedroom," a room with tatami mats.

Very clever, also very "stealth", when the truck is closed up, it looks like an ordinary delivery van. I suspect that the livable space inside isn't all that much smaller than the average Toyko apartment.

Much recommended reading, thanks for the link!
