This pair of European retirees turned a former Swiss fire truck into a 4x4 off-grid retirement tiny home that has taken them across Europe and now about to conquer the Americas. Friedrich, a retired electrical utility engineer, along with his wife, Heidrun, a creative soul with a music background, have converted this 4x4 expedition vehicle into a home that can take them across river beds, up mountain ranges, and into deserts!
