FOR SALE: 2007 Ford E-350 Sportsmobile 4x4 – V2.0 Expedition Build $95,000
Miles: 73,468 on fully rebuilt truck (152,700 total chassis miles)Location: Big Sky, Montana
📍 Ready to drive around the world. Rebuilt with reliability, off-grid capability, and global serviceability in mind.
After a test trip to Baja in the stock Sportsmobile in 2010, I quickly realized this rig in stock form wasn’t built for real-world overlanding. Cabinets failed on washboards, and the suspension was inadequate for anything beyond REC.Gov campgrounds. So, I stripped it down to bare steel and rebuilt it to be a true expedition platform—built for self-sufficiency in any terrain, any climate, any country. Meet version 2.0, a complete ground-up professional rebuild with a focus on reliability and long-term serviceability. It’s not new anymore, but it’s incredibly well cared for, stored indoors, and has been exceptionally reliable. If someone handed me a gas card and said, “Go drive the Pan-American,” I’d leave tomorrow without a single modification.
