Earth Roamer

Postby Bethers » Sat Mar 14, 2015 11:09 pm

If money was no object, I'd own an Earth Roamer. A solo lady arrived here today with one. She travels with her dog. She took it down to Chile! It is so cool. I've always known I like them, but this is the first one I got to go in and I'm in love. Will be love from a distance, but that's ok.

This might be her model - she does have this color cabinetry: http://earthroamer.com/xv-lt/floor-plans/xv-lt/
Click on one of the pictures and you can click through them. Probably not what most of you would want - but would fulfill my dreams :) And fit in the small places, like where I am now - and go down the bad roads ..

Beth....You could probably get similar results from putting a truck camper on a 4x4 pickup, with off road tires. It is cool, but probably way overpriced.

I have a feeling it's worth the price. Omg, did I say that lol. It is really, really well made.

That said, I'm happy with my home. Good thing, eh?

There was one a few years back at our local grocery and the guy was coming out as we were. I asked him about it and he showed me. Very well made and planned inside, but beyond my budget!

Years ago my DH and I saw a rig very similar to this in Quartzsite. It was made by Revcon. Since we owned a Revcon motorhome years ago, it caught our eyes. We thought the company was long gone. Revcon RVs looked almost exactly like the GMC's and every so often I still see them here and there. Didn't see the interior of the one in Q, tho.

Gee, Beth - I'm surprised that you drool over this! Here I thought we had similar RV tastes since we both choose the same layouts for our C's, but I couldn't even imagine traveling in a monster truck RV like this and yet here you are wishing you could! Interesting rig and I gotta admit I like the inside layout.

Evie, it's not a monster - just higher off the ground, giving the clearance to be off road. But I do love my rv. However, this one is better constructed. No doubt about it.

I saw one of these in Alaska, in Denali National Park. It was one of the larger models, and was fantastic! Owned by a young couple from Germany traveling with a baby and a dog. Beautiful.

Website said they range from standard pickup with camper size up to 31 ft. But all with really nice features and construction.

Wowzer on the price tag but it is cool and so well laid out. Looks like the cab is open to the rig is that correct?

Yes, it's a Class C. The one here was one of the smaller ones. My size lol. Really good thing I like my home. That's not really what I'd want to live in day to day, but for some trips. Ha now I want it as a second rig lol

I have a friend that owns an EarthRoamer and when I visited with her a couple of years ago it was my "bedroom"! It is quite a machine, I studied the control panel but decided I needed a degree of some sort to run it! But you are so right, they are well made! She's made several trips out west in it and has never had to stay in a CG! She can go off the grid for quite awhile in it!

It would be nice to have a smaller 2nd RV for side trips, Beth. I have to agree with that :D
