Hi All!
I spent two years building out this amazing go absolutely anywhere rig with EOG and Bowen Customs. It is unfortunately time I put this gem of a rig up for sale as it is simply not getting any use. My loss, your gain. With our kiddos growing up fast, our time is mostly consumed by sports / activities, and travel with work....with the amount I have invested in this rig, I would rather liquidate and put my money back to work with the little use it's getting. I plan to get something smaller and cheaper that can just sit around until we decide to do a NP or weekend trip....
There was absolutely nothing spared in this build. The process took almost two years to complete, mainly because there were some component shortages and Bowen Customs had just released their newest fully articulating subframe camper bed which this truck was one of the first two to get. It works flawlessly. The engineering work that both EOG and Bowen put into their products and delivery is absolutely second to none in the industry.
I built this rig for the sole purpose of doing what I love, going as deep and remote as I can, dispersed camping with many redundancies and being able to be completely self-sustained for 5 days minimum with the kiddos, and a week ++ solo.
This specific truck build won first place at Overland Expo MTW last year, here are the links that include the article and delivery video:
To go and build this identical truck today would cost about 20-30% more with price increases and the lead time would be 9+ months.
Truck Specifications:
2022 Ford F550 Lariat fully loaded - 4,487 miles at time of writing this
