No expense spared on this build. I had this built for full-time four-season travel. Approximately 9,000 miles on build since delivered. Lead time on a build like this is one year. Current production of this vehicle with similar features is $450,000. For sale by owner, Asking $395,000 OBO. Moving into aviation, time to sell.


Vehicle stored in climate-controlled building at Minden Airport in Minden, Nevada. 20 minutes from Lake Tahoe
