at 17.5 tons that thing wouldnt do to well in the swamps down here in florida.
it probably doesnt like suagr sand either.

my 7.5 ton 6x6 has a hard enough time in the mud and sand

If i were to build the utlimate off road rv it would be a 25-30' skoolie with the mutli fuel engine and drive train out of a 5 ton 6x6. all 3 axles possible a second steering axle as well for better weight distribution.
