Where did you see it? It has been more or less in hiding since Darren sold
it. Is it active again?

Darren's philosophy was to try and get the lightest 26 foot GMC
possible. He used a lot of aluminum on the interior. I think it
weighed in in the less than 10klb range. His TZE+ company produced
some neat tools. He was also one of the first that discounted the hub
centered myth on the wheels that he chose. He was probably one of the
funniest Canadians I've ever met as he believed that when he crossed
the border to come into the US, everyone was carrying a gun. Great
drinking buddy.

So he was trying to make it more like a Revcon?
