Earthroamer известен среди любителей вылазок на бездорожье за рулём автомобилей. Свои проекты фирма строит на базе разных моделей, но сейчас на смену проекту XV-LTS на основе Ford F-550 она сделала XV-HD на базе Ford F-750.
Гигантское шасси с 335-сильным 6,7-литровым турбодизелем V8 и 8-ступенчатой автоматической коробкой передач, естественно, оснащено полным приводом. В Earthroamer установили на машину 46-дюймовые шины Michelin XZL и заднюю подвеску Fox с гидравлической системой поддержания постоянного дорожного просвета. Есть и лебёдка с тяговым усилием, позволяющим выдернут автомобиль из трясины.
Earthroamer XV-HD строит по индивидуальным заказам, поэтому каждый клиент может выбрать, как и чем оснастить его 6-местный дом на колёсах. Акустика Bose, шкафы из дерева, столешницы из камня и столовые приборы из нержавеющей стали — легко!
Кроме прочего, кемпер может перевозить 435 литров дизельного топлива и почти тонну пресной воды, а на крыше установлены солнечные батареи на 2100 Вт, которые заряжают литий-ионные аккумуляторы на 20 кВт/ч.
У Earthroamer уже заказаны три новых XV-HD — клиентов, которым ждать машины до конца 2018 или начала 2019 года, не отпугивает даже цена в $1,5 миллиона.

EarthRoamer, the world leader in off-road, off-grid, luxury expedition vehicles, is excited to announce the expansion of their product line with the highly anticipated XV-HD. Built on a ruggedly capable 4WD Ford F-750 chassis and designed to accommodate up to 6 people in total comfort, the EarthRoamer XV-HD is the answer for those looking to explore the backcountry without sacrificing space or amenities.
Since 1998, EarthRoamer has been designing, building and perfecting expedition vehicles that break all the rules of the traditional RV lifestyle. Coined “XVs,” EarthRoamer’s burly self-sufficient vehicles get you off the grid and away from crowded RV parks so you can travel on your own terms-without the need for propane or a noisy generator. The popular F-550 based XV-LTS model has been a huge success with almost 200 on the road and an impressive track record for performance and craftsmanship. Now, with the larger and more technologically advanced XV-HD, EarthRoamer is taking their proven luxury overlanding concept to new heights.
“The HD is our most innovative product yet,” says Tyler Tatro, President and COO of EarthRoamer. “It utilizes state-of-the-art construction and systems to bring comfort and functionality to the next level.”
The capability of the XV-HD starts at its foundation. Utilizing a 4WD converted Ford F-750 with a 6.7L Powerstroke engine, the base for the XV-HD is rock solid. EarthRoamer increases the off-road capability further by adding 46” Michelin XZL’s, rear air suspension with Fox shocks, hydraulic leveling, hydraulic front 30,000 lb. Warn Industries winch, a full LED light array from Baja Designs, and much more. Escaping the crowds and traveling on your own terms is one thing, but staying out in total comfort is the ultimate goal for the XV-HD. With 2,100 watts of solar capability, a 20,000-watt Lithium Ion battery bank, a PTO driven hydraulic generator, 250 gallons of fresh water capacity, and 115 gallons of diesel fuel capacity, the XV-HD is equipped for the long haul.
The rugged brawn of the XV-HD is matched only by it’s luxuriously outfitted interior and handcrafted finishes. Featuring a full bathroom with separate shower, washer/dryer, full kitchen with premium appliances, in-floor radiant heating, Bose Surround Sound entertainment, and King Ranch trim in the cab, the XV-HD lets you have it all – wherever you travel.
