I can't believe how many people it can sleep! It has everything to go almost anywhere, really opens up possibilities for those who can afford the vehicle & fuel. Thanks for sharing this. 👍
So true!
The bunk bed is something I have been wanting to see in other RVs.
WOW! What a beast, Im buying one.
me too!
Always great walk throughs, Joe. That rig is unreal. Too much for me but I’d love to see it in action.
Love that design of the bed over the dinette. Very flexible and frees up a lot of floor space. In theory the bed area at the back could be utilised for something else.
I saw something like that here in the Verde Valley a few weeks ago! It was huge, but if you want to go down into Mexico, the Baja or really remote places, it has the strength and height to do it, plus all the amenities. Too rich for me, but cool to see!
I’ve talked to them about the Patagonia and that’s just what we’re looking for.
Absolute dream rig! I've been daydreaming about one of these for the last month. I lived in an Airstream with a 30 gallon water tank for a year, and the 135 gallon water tank in the Patagonia would be a game changer. That was my least favorite thing-- having to drive into town from a BLM site just to fill up on water and propane. Thinking about how deep back into the boonies you could go with this thing is an exciting thought. One day :)
You do an amazing job describing this incredible extreme RV .
☆☆☆☆☆.
Thank you kindly!
Wow! That’s amazing!😍🤩
What a beast that truck is.🙏💕👍🌈😇
That it is!
Wow, what a machine! In a go anywhere motor like this the world is your oyster! And no matter where you go a fantastic vehicle like this just screams out "mug us we're loaded!" Nighty night, sleep well😊
Pretty sure the type of people that buy these vehicles know how to defend themselves.😊
This impressed me. I'd love to have a deck but for the price this is on my list. And for me...full time living with my pittie.
My lottery dream home! Love it. Probably worth every penny.
Very nice. You could forget about the world in that. And you could always keep moving to new places. Though if I could afford that I probably could live wherever I wanted and find a place anywhere I wanted.
I think expensive in comparison to the Unicats…
I like the bed that comes down, saves space!
Just buy a military truck and hire contractors to install the specific upgrades that you want. You could get the same exact thing for 200k pretty easily.
@@ar007r
Exactly what i did, bought a 4x4 -90 military Scania crewCab 😃
150k is my budget
Hey man. This is an amazing vehicle and video. Love the truck. Can't wait to afford such one. Thanks for sharing.😩😩
2003, we built our ExpeditionVehicle for about one percent (1%) of that us$900,000 asking price.
Two decades full-time live-aboard.
I like the one in the #shorts where do you buy them ? I really like this one but w/more futuristic sci fi vertical lighting and a46"transparent oled tv ,full size refrigerator like the ones in rvs
Nice review of a gorgeous rig. It’s so well laid out and designed. Can’t even imagine what it must be like to camp out out in one of these. When I win th3 lottery it’ll be on my list! 🤣
This is an awesome rig!
….although my #1 pick would be the Australian SLRV Commander/MAN
can't find the specs for this thing anywhere on the internet LOL as a truck driver(and tow truck operator) i have some obvious questions, first off, what is the mpg for this truck(i'm guessing 8mpg at best), second, how high is it? it looks tall, pretty sure it's under 13'6" but would like to know😊 ok, at $700,000+ you me and everybody that could afford this would care less about fuel economy, but it be nice to know how far you can go😉
Loved everything except the tiny fridge & freezer.
I'll take it! - Shane
so where is the link to the give away?
Beefy rig! Thanks for showing us.
I would love to take this to Alaska 7:57 Lincoln
Can you get a dual cab in it, the other thing can the shower be a little bigger?
Thanks Joe, So it can sleep 6 people but there are only on the road seats for 2. Odd
Since these are custom it’s how the customer wanted this rig built. I believe there are cab chassis with a crew cab
Will definitely buy it when i strike the Lottery!
Us too!
Or just buy a military truck and hire people to convert it and you can get something nicer than this for under 200k pretty easily. Id love to see research on the people who are buying these things. Are they actually selling them or is something else going on with this industry because I keep seeing criminally overpriced vehicles in this category.
Now that is the way to go off road camping
Oh that it is
not worth it! lol I mean if you actually sleep 6 people you would be lucky if a cassette toilet lasted a weekend. All that water and no real waste storage you won't be going far unless you are illegally dumping along the way
Just like Cousin Eddie……sh*tater was full…….💩💩💩💩
That's true , it would be nice to have some kind of composting toilet. I'm not an expert on this so I'm kinda clueless on that topic.
You are not suposed to live in it. Your are suposed to live out of it. I would àlmost never use the toilet.
lol. If someone is spending a million dollars on a vehicle I’m pretty sure they aren’t packing in 5 more people
@@dogotek2l
what is the reliability of this truck? diesel? def? can I travel south of the border with it?
So, if Fred really took the keys and we took a joy ride just where would we go? Good Question. Another great review. Mary 💕 Fred
SLR does these in Australia for Global customers
Very nice but a cassette toilet for a truck like this is a shame. The truck is big enough to install a Cinderella Incineration toilet, a Norwegian brand. That burns the waste so you just need to emty the sterile ashes every 4-6 weeks and no use of water😊
Great review 👌
Yeap
Great review, great rig, if only.🙏🏻
Maybe one day!
04:54 for how long the freezer can keep running without recharging?
Alaska to Argentina.
Then circle the continent following the Atlantic route all the way to eastern Canada then to Alaska and back to California, with 300 gallon tanks and a huge fridge /freezer.
Ojala en México se vendan este tipo de veiculos y asi comprar uno de estos en a turistiar o a negosios oplacetes sin rentar
Looks nice. I’d like to build one myself and save$750,000.00. Now I just need to come up with the $150,000 and convince my wife!
how many miles can you make with full tank ?😇😁
this is good if you own oil field for your gas..
Looks great but the freezer/fridge is a bit too small. Hopefully there are options to get larger versions.
They're completely custom so you can chose other options.
Mmmmm is the generator waterproof???
Im love it
With that departure angle, break over or ramp angle and with all that weight, that is NOT a go anywhere or expedition vehicle. Good luck to turn around on single track mountain roads. The vehicle itself is not build thought enough for serious off road.
That is a nice build for gravel roads and occasionally light off road to that nice camping spot.
I wish Taxa would create something like this in the Mitsubishi or Isuzu CoE chassis that's available here in the US. Maybe they can bring down the cost of other manufacturers.
great rigs but won't fit down many forest service roads lined with trees, or many narrower route in the deserts or the US.
Cassette toilet for that size and price of an RV?
i think you meant 800amp not watts
I live montana . and take all the backroads. the great northwestern part of the country. even canada. even az. or texas.
I noticed GXV no longer has the Safari Extreme listed on their website so it looks like they are making this the new flagship model. I like the option for more sleeping with the bunk but the chassis is a single cab so are there additional seat belts at the dining area? If not I see that has a miss for families with more than two people.
These are all custom and I’m sure if there were requirements to seat more they could accommodate
Wonder how the post sales service is!
Why so expensive? The rig is very nice and stuff, but this should be @ $500K in my opinion.
I'll never understand why people will pay so much money for any RV that sacrifices comfortable sleeping, which to me and most, involves not bothering or be bothered by everyone at night to go to the bathroom for 20 inches of walking space. Days in the wild. Nights comfy like home.
What would you say is the minimum width for the central corridor? Like 15-16"? I don't like "wasted" space either, but I don't know at what point you just can't walk comfortably.
Also, would you prioritize having two bathrooms (or beds far apart) so that everyone could go to the bathroom at night without disturbing others?
@@justasheep4427 I'd rather sleep comfortably. Maybe a telescope mechanism for the bed to use only at sleep time. Anyway, sleeping over walking/cooking/ inside an RV, any day.
Van vs big truck?
I really like it... a lot! But... and it's a small but... but it drives me frickin crazy when manufactures install the shade and bug screens upside down. The shade should come up from the bottom and the screen should come down from the top.
Rant over. Lol
With the shade coming down from the top, you can adjust the shade to cover the sun as it's coming up / going down and still get some sunlight coming through - hence why they are designed like that.
@@Weretherussos But if you like walking around inside your rig partially dressed, then the shade on the bottom helps keep prying eyes looking up and in while I can look down and out by adjusting the bottom shade for the level of privacy I want. You can't do that as well with the shade on top.
@@renaissancepoet
2003, we built our ExpeditionVehicle with 3010 (three feet wide by a foot tall) dual-pane sliders designed for a stand-still house.
We mounted these at our eye-level standing inside, about eight feet above pavement.
I like the shade on the bottom too. It was on the top in the video.
I don't understand why expedition vehicles have cassette toilets. Is the idea to go on weekend trips? Our expeditions last at least two to three weeks off the grid before we return for supplies and start again.
Because outside of the U.S., most other places don’t have places to dump a black tank.
@@Weretherussos And, you dump your cassette on the ground.
No, the cassette gets dumped in a toilet or similar (in Europe they have specific cassette dump stations). If you’re that far off grid that you never see a place to dump then just go outside.
If I am going to pay ALL that Money I want a full stove and washer dryer combo
well built travel machine. The size of a NYC apt. Is it possible to rent these from the manufacturer?
No - they don’t rent them
@@Weretherussos a 2 week European (flying, etc) vacation can cost $25k - $30k. Instead of doing the European vacation, the idea would be to rent this monster machine. I suppose the rental camper apps is the next place to look if someone bought one and is renting it.
This mese type of off road can be rented for a minimum 3 years at 50k/year
Humm…a post apocalyptic bugout luxury vehicle (w/o that “Mad Max” vibe)? You’re gonna get some interesting commentary about the price point lol! 🤑🖖🏼
We always do!
How to get it solutions pls
The inside reminds me of a laboratory or doctor's office. Not very warm or homey!
If this had a Watergen system it would be perfect. You can stay longer off-grid with a Watergen system. Which is only offered "Living Vehicle."
Don’t know what your talking about? Do you mean a filter system to squire water from streams and lakes directly??
There are water trucks smaller this that can carry 40,000 gallons of water across country. Put 1500 gallons in this plus a UV for stream water for laundry. People want a hot shower everyday for at least 2-3 weeks. No one wants to go into town constant for water spending a thousand for gas. No one needs a black tank. A small grey is sufficient.
A water truck holds 2-4k gallons. A fuel tanker truck holds up to 12k gallons. You’d have no room to carry 1500 gallons of water in a camper.
Do you guys know why it's so expensive? Because GXV is the only class 6 & above 'CUSTOM' builder in the US. When demand is low, the price naturally goes up. That's the fact. However, compared to European cabins, the quality of the interior is a bit inferior. I'd rather ship my chassis to Europe, build there, and bring it back.
#goal !!!
I wish a manufacturer would create silicone adult size plates. If toddlers can have them why not the motorhome community. They don't break, they are microwaveable, don't leach chemicals etc.
I would love to hear about self rescue of the vehicle and a safe space within that you could have you the option of escape and retaliation.
The wanderbox has 200-300 gallons of water this is way bigger should have at least 1000-1500 or what really is the purpose
Copied from Wanderbox’s website: 70 to 140 gallons of fresh water
Beautiful but I don’t want to pay the gas bill
It’s actually better than many campervans!
If you are buying that rig, I'm guessing fuel cost is not a big concern.
@David,
We rarely travel more than a hundred miles a month.
Fuel is a very minor part of our budget.
Enough storage to go out for a lightyear off road.
I enjoyed watching your walk through Joe, but this rig is just way too extreme!
Great and expensive rig
Tout ça, mais une petite toilette à cassette pas beaucoup de réserve n’est ce pas.
Yes however in most places in the world, you’ll need to carry the cassette to a toilet so if it’s larger it will be too heavy.
Merci de votre réponse. Ce que je voulais dire c’est qu’une cassette vous n’avez pas beaucoup d’autonomie par rapport à une réserve d’eau noire. Ce camion est équipé pour plusieurs jours en autonomie sauf que la cassette ne balance pas avec le tout. 😊
A composting toilet would be a better choice in my own opinion. or a spare cassette. This vehicle is the most "attractive" USA made expedition truck. Not yet to the level of German or similar ones but getting there. How dependable is the Kenworth mechanic ??
@@jappietoutou
re -- reliable
The Cummins diesel is excellent, engineered for hundreds of thousands of miles.
Tragically, it is hampered by the Exhaust Fluid dispensary.
来自上海的问题❤
This thing pales in comparison to an EarthRoamer HD
😍😍👌👌👌👌
The cab looks very tight 🤷♀️
To expensive. Nice but we’re do you park it when you are at work trying to pay it off . Lol
I'm reminded of Ben 10 grandpa's van
Two things I would want in this vehicle are a full sized oven and washer dryer combo
No over but there is the washer/dryer. Keep watching and you’ll see it
A similar company Earthcruiser USA who builds similar vehicles just closed it's doors. I would be afraid of spending that much money and the same thing happening in this market segment.
I would rather buy a off-road trailer, like what I’ve seen from ROA videos.
700K. Hahahahaha😂😂😂
...the vanlife for billionaires
Cool bht nkt worth one third of its price
Interesting that there was no propane. All electric cooking. It is very nice. Just like the price. As Christine said, that thing is made to go somewhere where there is nothing and be self sufficient. Before you go explore the world with this thing. You have to explore your wallet and bank account for all the money you have. 💰💰😀😀
Very true
For that price I would build 4 myself.
If you were building it yourself you could probably built 7 of them for that price. If you pay someone to convert it you can still probably get this truck for 200k.
I can get a smaller overlands 100-200 gallons of water. There’s no point to this unless I’m getting 1500 gallons of water. The #1 reason most people do t get these is WATER, Parking & money for food.
So you want to carry around over 13k pounds of water and spend the fuel it takes to move that around?? Don’t forget these vehicles have a limit on carrying capacity. You’re going to have to sacrifice a lot of things to have that ability for your vehicle to carry that amount of water.
All that money and size, but you still have to climb over your partner to pee in the middle of the night
$700k? geez, the value of the dollar has eroded so much
How can anyone afford it? Take a loan that lasts for generations?
Why is it that no excursion company has ever made a zombie proof bomb proof fire proof water proof bullet proof excursions vehicle ide but the sht out of that you would have every doomsday pepper around the globe on your doorstep climbing over themselves to buy one especially if it was made affordable or brought to sema
Overpriced and overkill…., unless you’re truly going around the world!😂
The pattagonia needs a outside BBQ & shower air stabiliser a dish washer and space in the main bedroom for a 50' inc tv and another 40' inc tv somewhere else in the cabin 6 hidden gun racks for hunting rifles ar 15,16,17 and 300 black out bullet proof glass plus carbon fiberglass resin insulation in the door for extra bulletproof protection the cabin also needs to be bullet proof zombie proof bomb proof and water proof and fire proof with on board fire systems that work automatically and a riot screen for the front windscreen and also on each window
The hilarious thing is I saw a dude convert a military truck that was similar to this to something much much nicer and he did it for under 100k with about 2 months of work on his own. These things are all criminally overpriced. they are 100k vehcicles with about 100k worth of constuction and labour but they charge you the price of a house.
Some people have so much money, they like it expensive. Gives them something to brag about
next time, undo the cushions
Nice but way out of my budget for sure
