    EarthCruiser Terranova

    That is “pre-wired” (meaning already built in) not “premiered.” Dang spell check.

    EarthCruiser Terranova

    Ours is in the queue and it is based on a Ford Chassis Cab, which goes up to Lariat trim. The advantage to the Ford is it has premiered switches that make it easy to modify. The Ram Chassis can be more feature-laden but my understanding is they take more effort to connect all the systems.

    EarthCruiser Terranova

    Blowby, we have the Sportsmobile pop top as well, but have not been in deeply cold environments—in moderate cold we were fine with the heater on occasionally. Will definitely specifically address operation in colder climates—so far I am operating on a similar assumption as Greg.

    EarthCruiser Terranova

    I have been fortunate enough to be communicating with John @ earthcruiser about the Terranova. He’s been awesome, giving us two “virtual” tours of the terranova under construction. Even given some of the noted “drawbacks“ in turning radius to having the long nose of a pickup truck as opposed...

So we will need to purchase something ready-built. I like the nimbl especially the upgrades to the...

    Switching from Ford E-Series to FC/cabover (like Sportsmobile to Earthcruiser 4x4)?

    Interested in whether your thoughts on the TerraNova and Adventure Truck have evolved? Similar to Geoff, we have an E350 Sportsmobile (2007) and we love the ability to go anywhere but with two labs and getting a bit older we need a bit more space, storage, and an indoor bathroom would certainly...

    Another Chassis Conundrum????

    Very interested in hearing how this goes for you. Have not seen a lot of discussion about Hunter RMV on this forum and just discovered them myself. Anyone have experience with them and thoughts on comparisons with others doing LMTV conversions? Any thoughts on their new Isuzu dual cab? And...
