 Brian Fran, 61, a California resident, the founder and head of Applied Minds, a company that provides services to militaries and large corporations, decided to take his newly born daughter, Kira, on a trip around the world, by car. To this end, Fran turned to his inventive skills, spent millions of dollars on planning, and four years traveling around the world to meet with experts, until he created the ultimate vehicle for the purpose of travel - one the likes of which has never been seen on the world's roads. In the 'Kira-Van' project, he spared no detail and equipped the vehicle with a full office, a fully equipped kitchen, bedrooms, and even a tent that opens on the roof of the vehicle, for the benefit of his daughter, who is now four years old. There is also a motorcycle in the back, and it can be used by the family for trips. In terms of travel, the enormous vehicle, with six tires, is capable of crossing swamps and climbing over rocks. The impressive specifications are suitable for a trip of up to 2,000 miles (3,200 kilometers) without the need to replenish supplies, and can also navigate slopes with an inclination of 45 degrees. As extraordinary as the vehicle's specifications are, the highlight is the area used for sleeping and living: it is equipped in a more luxurious way than most houses. The bedrooms are eco-friendly, the kitchen is designed to provide at least two weeks of cooked food, and the truck itself can be used as a movie theater and TV room when parked.
