Beautiful. This is 99.5% of the truck I'd build. Add a removeable tailgate, removable lumber rack/shooting platform and the train horn. Exceptional build.
I just got to look at this build and it's even more impressive in person. Owner was super cool, even though i was just a random dude in the Lowes parking lot. Ive met some pretty famous people, and I've never been as star struck as getting to look at this rig. Nice job guys.
This is a better option than an Earthroamer than I think from a long term perspective. The only addition I would like to see added was being able to add a 5th wheel / gooseneck as well as some camper owners have a 5th wheel as well.
Agree with others in the comments; it is a great build. All the options I would want with one addition, a hydraulic lift for a motorcycle on the back, something like a KTM 890 Adventure R would do nicely. Do you ever run these trucks across a scale to find a final payload? I made the trip he was referring to in my truck camper with a 3500 this year. Every time I hit a frost heave or pothole, I wished I had a 5500. I didn't experience the braking concerns (wasn't pulling anything) and had all the power I needed.
Thanks so much! Our RAM 5500 Black Edition weighs 9,670lbs as we build it. With the Bowen Customs bed it is close to 11,000. Payload still not an issue as our trucks can support nearly 10,000lbs payload. With the 19,500lb GVWR, this truck can still haul 8,000lbs comfortably😁 The LiquidSpring Smart Suspension also makes potholes much more enjoyable to drive over.
I love EVERYTHING about this build video except for one small thing. The painter wasn't wearing eye protection. It only gets me because of when I used to paint back in the day and get some specs on my eyes. When I see that, it always makes me rb my eyes. But like I said, I love the vid and the build. Your builds are always awesome. 😁😁😁
The Bowen - EOG co-op isn't something I expected, but it is something I very much appreciate. What a beauty! What would make it an even higher level, off the charts build is a power buff and a 10-speed swap. That would be THE ultimate spec, just a perfect balance between form and function.
One of these days I may have to hit you guys up for a truck provided I can get the funds together. Gorgeous rigs. It's like a comfier version of an International MXT, actually good looking though. Instead of being an ugly bugger. xD
Now I have a new need I can't afford 😢. It could only be better with 3 improovements: 1) Air front and rear lockers (didn't heard there were any). 2) Train Horn 3) th3 front bumper being steel with a full front protection (I'm all for a 1/4" thick steel wall all around a bumper and it having that bullbar covering slightly above the hood in the center and adding the headlight protection. But man, I would absolutely not hessitate to jump on this exact rig. Maybe the wiring on the Aux lights could be slightly better. I like to link them to the factory stuff, so I like the bar to be trigered with the high beams, the fogs by the factory switch and just leave the ditch lights and rocklights as aux switches (also rear facing for camping purposes and forcing assholes in the highway to turn off their high beams if they are blinding me).
@@elevationoffgrid damn! Now I have nothing left to be petty about it and I will be more frustrated about not being able to afford one of this beasts! You do have an amazing product here, you literally created my dream truck with no flaws or mistakes. My respect to you guys as a team and as a business

Thank you very much!
The Bowen/EOG partnership has created a simply amazing rig. Can’t wait to get mine!
Looking forward to it!
That is one spectacular truck! I am sure it will haul his truck camper with no problems! Great work as always!!
Thanks so much Charlie!
Not a complaint or anything - but I find it odd that Bowen does not include a lockable cover over the fuel ports.

Love your videos even though I will never be able to afford one of your rigs!!! Great work all around!
Thanks so much!
🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸👍👍👍happy new year EOG!!!!!Awesomes editions..i love theses!!! Trent F .M from Chicago❤
Thanks Trent!
This is a better option than an Earthroamer than I think from a long term perspective. The only addition I would like to see added was being able to add a 5th wheel / gooseneck as well as some camper owners have a 5th wheel as well.
Different bed configurations for 5th wheel are available for these beds as well.
Awesome video. Horrendous music taste. The potential for these videos is there, but you gotta take these whack ass tunes off my guy.
Not bad, but deducting some points for not having a .50cal mount.
Best Ram I've ever seen
Thanks so much!
You can tell this couple has some money and has for a while. I would be losing my shit, but these looks like they could care less
You guys do the best job I have ever seen! Perfection at its best!😊

I'm stopping by once I win the Lotto!! I'd need a Ford tho.
This couple proves you're never too old to start a life of adventure
Did they make it to Nashville on the 95 Gallons of fuel?
Brushed golf wheels would’ve look even more insane on it imo! But man o man what a perfect rig!
Ill be as old as them to afford this truck
Got this 5500 Ram with a 5th wheel

If I ever hit it big I’m def gonna hit y’all up for a 5500. Already working on a build sheet too!!
Could you have this exact setup and tow a 5th wheel???
Gooseneck yes, 5th wheel unlikely. Hit up Bowen Customs on that
Are you capable of providing as an option upgrade for protection from an EMP event, God forbid?
We sure can
@@elevationoffgrid, that’s awesome! Thanks for taking time to respond, I appreciate it.
I didn’t know Willie Robertson stopped making duck calls and when to work at Elevation.
God, I am tired of that intro song. Sweet rig considering a similar build👍

That is simply SICK!!!!

We have air lockers and air horn available to clients for their builds. Our front and rear bumpers are 1/4” steel as well.

Love the UAE 🇦🇪 flag on the wall … also dope build mate …
Dream build
Thank you sir!
Thank you for this! Your videos are getting more and more interesting. Love the content!
Love to hear it! Thanks so much!
Great build!
Is it possible to get a smaller garage more proportional to the cab?
Bowen does make different configurations of these setups but you’d have to speak with them regarding specific sizes😁
Wonder if a gooseneck could also be incorporated. What a dream boat, wish the guy could have got that at a younger age!
Keep an eye out for that option.
I'd be borrowing my Granpa's truck alot!
skip the music
Nice truck
What's up with that flag in the shop
Dubai (not Palestine) - we have clients from UAE
@@elevationoffgridthey got that oil money 😆
Definitely a future buyer 👍🏾
Ready when you are sir!
