Great description of all the things I have learned to do since I bought my Roamer. I am aslo mindful of what I am taking with me. Below is a snippet from a discussion in the ER Community I made a while ago. My stamp from ER themselves says the following; GVWR is 21,060LBs Front GAWR is...

Pre-Roamed Earthroamers are done as consignment and the owner dictates the price. Earthroamer has no control of that. They are consulted on for suggestions though.

I bought my Earthroamer in Feb of 2021 PreOwned. I paid about 15k less than what it was posted for at the time. Lots of things go into the market value of these extremely niche vehicles. I did research for a few years before I bought one and kept a record of the preowned site. I downloaded the...

Great write up. Good luck with your sale!

On my ER my only option is to run the MPT 81s, but if I had a vehicle that was lighter, I would go for the Goodyear G275 MSA tires. Way less maintenance than the MPT 81s. Some of the older ER LTs have been able to successfully switch to them because their weight rating is about 400lbs less per...

I own ER217 (@roamsoft on IG) and I can answer these questions for you. I bought ER217 used in Feb 2021 and have used it to travel and work out of with my wife for a good chunk of the last few years. I have put around 35k miles on it since I purchased it. I run 95PSI in the rear and 45PSI in...

Just responding to this to bring it to the top. I am having a hard time finding a lender that will do a loan for an Earthroamer. I was curious if maybe any current owners might respond or DM me with who they might have worked with recently. I am interested in purchasing an LTi and have most of...

How is the seam on the composite panel sealed? On the pictures it looks like they are stacked together on the side. Just curious to learn. I like those new boxes under the composite living quarters. They look nice and oh so much storage!

I think it looks pretty interesting. I think mini Earthroamer instead of new take on the Sunraider, personally. I think that look appeals to a lot of people. Tacomas get a lot of airtime in this "overland" vibe coming off all social media platforms. All the classic Toyota reliability, etc. I can...

Queen sleeping with no extension for king support. My wife and I like a bigger bed. Would give up other amenities for that option alone. Still interested though.

Just read through all seven pages and just posting to send kudos. This thing is so dope. Keep sending it!

The truck/Khaya are now sold.

I have never actually weighed it on a cat scale, but I am sure I am over the payload spec in the truck and exceeding GVWR. It is something I really learned about after I had built this truck.

Seems in line for what I am asking on my Taco with its mods. I have less miles though but no LT. Not much interest though for mine but I think it is mainly due to wanting to sell the Taco and Khaya together. Probably going to break them up soon. I'm not in a hurry to sell and I have had folks...

Photos of various accessories I called out above on the Taco. Feel free to visit https://www.smugmug.com/gallery/n-c78RH8/i-X8GJDCt for more pictures.
