Guys and Gals, check this out:

absolutely unbelievable what these guys have done. And the most amazing thing of all, now that they have taken the big road trip, they are selling it for $5500 bucks!!! ( I wonder what it would cost to container it from Japan to LA?)

My only complaint I've had about my Coleman popup conversion is the fact that I can't stand up in it! With that design, I could stand up and have a nice view as well. They got me thinking again...

I was wondering how sturdy it ws on the second floor, then saw the picture with 7 people (albeit of below American average weight) in that second floor. Must be pretty strong and stable!

Their trip was in 2001. I suppose the "transformer" is already in new hands.
