Example image. Not actual truck

I was contacted about an offer for two, near-new EarthRoamer XV-LTs that I thought was unique, and important to post up because of the condition of the trucks, low price and rarity. These are two, nearly identical XV-LT EarthRoamers, built on the Ford F-550 crew cab 4wd. The trucks have about 9,200 highway miles. No 4wd use and never camped in. No damage to either unit. They are priced aggressive too, at $160,000 each.

Ford F-550, 4wd
1. Twin Turbo V8 Diesel.
2. 5-speed Automatic with tow/haul
3. Four passenger
4. Lariat Package

EarthRoamer Conversion:
Note: These trucks were used as promotional vehicles for a solar energy company, and feature additional solar capacity and four additional lifeline batteries in the rear storage area. This allows for running the AC and other appliances in high heat or limited sun.

Yes, $150k is expensive, but remember these are classified as RV's and can be financed as such...

As of today, BOA is advertising an RV loan rate of 240mo/7.75%

Calculate that out and a payment on $150k RV would be $1231. Yea, thats a 20 year term, and the truck won't be worth 20% of its current value at that point, but you can see how people are doing this. Its basically a second mortgage on an item that has no investment value....

and a business expense. . .

I moved the "price" discussion to the general discussion in campers. Lets keep this thread about the trucks for sale. Thanks

 

[Scott Brady]

Both are sold.
