Anybody here live near Salisbury NC?

It's not an MB, but I've been looking for a Fuso 4wd truck upon which to mount a camper and a dealer has a couple for sale that I might consider. If anyone lives real close and would be willing to take a look and take some digital pictures, if I decide they're worth acting one, let me know. Here's a thread on an expedition camper board in regard to them:

Public thanks to Chuck for looking at the truck for me. I'm scheduled to purchase it next week.

That is so coool. I can't wait to see pics of it once you buy it.

Having lived in Japan for several years, you see Mitsubishi Fuso diesel trucks all over the place all day long.

That's a looker.

By the way, in case it hadn't come up before, "Fuso" means transport.
