2019 F350 4WD Lariat crew cab short bed, 6.2L V8 petrol, 38k miles. With custom aluminum flatbed/boxes and AterraXL composite camper.

Absolutely no expense spared on this rig.
This has been my dream full-size expo build which was built for 2 people + 2 dogs (took about 6yrs to plan and execute--ok, I'll admit I'm OCD), and it's been an adventure but major life changes, including losing my 15yo pup, means I will be downsizing. I've put SO much passion, obsession, time, effort, blood/sweat/tears into this, I really want to see it go to a home that will get out and enjoy it and make some lasting memories!

I've been in the rig and watched the build develop, and I don't know that there's any way the result could be better. I saw that a lot of time, research and money went into building this as best as Jeremy thought it could be done. Some people understandably like to put the time and extra money into building their own bespoke perfect rig, but for anyone who'd rather get out and about now instead of sometime in 2025, this seems a really good option. (It seems nicely-priced, too, which is not something you can say about some of the stuff appearing here. )

Whaaaat? Wow, I would have bet the farm that you would never be selling this rig. An Aterra XL has been on my short-list for quite some time, but I've had my own life changing events this year so I'm not in a place currently to go after this rig, but wow, an absolutely amazing opportunity for someone.

Good luck with the sale of this awesome rig!

I know from talking with you in the past how much time, energy, and research you've got invested here...not to mention $

Thank you all; very kind.

If I wasn't well under way with my build I'd be all over this. GLWS!

Dohp! Sorry I missed you.

Thank you as always Mike. Lots of lessons learned through this process, and still many to continue learning.


Nicely presented, J.

Super sweet, super clean unit and at a fair price.

GLWS !

Appreciate it D!

I didn't expect to either when I started the process. Continuing to send you best wishes.
Thx Herb!

Pump the brakes!

Hey, man...it's CryHavoc from over on the The Ineous Forum. I was like...waaaaait...I know this beautiful truck :unsure: First...very, very, sorry on the loss of your pup. They leave an unfillable hole. Frankly I dunno how my heart still pumps anything with the number that have come and gone for me.

Second...this thing is absolutely amazing! If I didn't live on the wrong side of the country, I'd, seriously, consider dumping my RAM build and snapping this thing up. Unfortunately we have...trees...a lot...of...trees. I can't imagine this'll be around long at such an awesome price. GLWS!

Hehe, good seeing you over here too.
Thank you--means a lot from another pup guy. A bit of perspective given to one of my industry associates a week after my pup was gone; he said that he too has lost many, but that gives him the opportunity to save another shelter dog and shower it with love (just like I did for my boy). <mind blown> He is totally correct; while it's difficult to move on and there will never be another like him, there are SO many others who deserve my massive love. So for now I'm back to volunteering at the local shelter to at least help dogs become more adoptable.
Thx much, I really appreciate that! Hehe, your RAM is a sweet build too though.


Curious, have you weighed the rig and compared it to the GVWR?

Good luck with the sale of a great rig.

Yes (info in my build thread too); wet with me it's 11,200lbs (split is 4950lbs F, 6250lbsR....and it's been pretty consistent with lots of scale weights taken). This is of course with massively upgraded suspension which is spec'd for over that weight, wheels/tires spec'd for the same, etc. I was extremely mindful of weights when building this thing.
Ford GVWR on this rig is 10,900lbs, but again, that's with stock susp, wheels/tires, even gears--versus upgraded.

What a simply stunning rig, I'd absolutely have bought it if I wasn't way deep in the build cycle of my own - and boy do I hear what you said about the time lost on adventures, it's coming up on 3 years since my last trip out too, getting these rigs built from scratch takes wayyyy too long, it's a year wait for every part of the puzzle.

My advice to anyone looking is buy it, life is short and well-thought-out rigs like this are treasures.

Well said Andrew. Lots of pleasure and satisfaction in building from scratch (mine was LOTS of research, planning, obsessing, more research and planning, and then compiling the best of the best "subsystems" IMHO...I'm glad I aborted my previous '19 F350 fully custom project--would have taken even more time), but also lots of missed opportunities/memories....and that's what these rigs should be providing to us, right?

Thx much! (y)
