Let's just be honest OK? 2:18: Anti-Zombie bumper 2:44 Zombie spotting headlights 2:52 Zombie clearing winch 3:00 Zombie scaring air horns 3:05: Anti-zombie locks 3:22 Zombie proof ports 4:18 Zombie proof batteries 5:15 Anti-zombie dish water housing. 5:49 Zombie drinking fountain 7:11 Zombie Bar-B-Q Grill 7:51 Zombie Ski storage 8:55 Heavy duty outlet so you can escape zombies on your snowmobile. Dead Snow anyone? 9:10 Zombie-proof latches. Though I'm guessing any latch is zombie proof. Etc., etc., etc. So basically what they're really saying is, "This is an awesome camper. Oh, and it's zombie proof."
1)Drive an over priced 'off road' RV up into the woods. 2)Find beautiful remote area. 3)Set up camp. 4)Deploy exterior big screen tv. 5)Connect with net flicks.....errr, nature. 6)Congratulate yourself on your bush crafting skills.
It's just an exercise in showing off how much money you have. Realistically it's far too heavy and big to do any serious off roading. That thing isn't going anywhere without at least a logging road already set up. In the case of a zombie apocalypse it makes for a very noticeable and slow target. It's impracticable for anything other than showing off how much disposable income you have.
This is a beautiful piece of equipment here. My only criticism (and its minor) is all the electric steps and step bars, I think these would be more durable and reliable if they were manual. I also think the exterior TV is unnecessary from the perspective of this being a off road vehicle for the great outdoors. That is something I would see on pimp my ride or something! All in all the level of thought, and detail that went into this design is unbelievable.
Canadian Prepper the thought of going wild camping then getting to sit down and watch tv...well just silly...but agree its a great camper for half million dollars ???
+Canadian Prepper I rented a party bus with an outside tv. I found it to be pretty worthless. During the day, you can't see it in bright sunlight. At night, it attracts bugs. When I'm in the market for an rv, I won't be getting a tv for the outside. Come to think of it, I don't want a tv in my rv at all.
I️ love how these videos always show the simplest of dirt roads. My driveway looks worse than all of those, which my wife’s 2wd Car does absolutely fine on haha. Although the other day there were a number of leaves so I️ think she moved a little to the left going up
Extraordinary feasibility design, greatly well introduced and explained, just brilliant. TOP, TOP, TOP work done. Serious stuff there. Congrats to the designers and team.
I love it.I always dream of owning a reliable camper and always want to travel through out my country, Myanmar.While traveling I like to make a good documentary of the amazing view of my country which is not well know globally but whichis deserved to be known.
Thanks so much for that indepth tour!! Great great stuff!! Unfortunatly, I hate that to be able to have that freedom and to live your dream it has to cost so much. But I would live in it for life!!! Would love to travel the world in this!!
This thing is awesome and people complaining about price. ...come on now we're not talking about a Toyota camry here. Did you see the inside and all the options plus this thing is literally built like a tank with the suspension setup. I bet just the f550 alone is 70k+ add all the extras and labor and warranty your probably getting a fair deal.
+Clyde “Thetruth” Smith base model f550's are around $85k so you are paying for the truck, then there is all the suspension, that alone is probably around $5000, then the camper itself and all the crap inside is another $45k. not to mention labour AND they need to make a profit so they can actually pay for the labour
Clyde Smith very much so. some people dont realize how much work goes into actually outfitting these trucks. "i can do that myself for cheaper!" arguments get old after a while, to those that say that I just say "well do it then and quit bitching"
+Justin Bechtel like if you can then do it and compete ! I love this thing and also think that only people that cant afford things like this think its "to much money" This isnt a 1994 Winnebago
Absolutely the coolest thing I have ever seen. And for those of you who are saying "you can find something just as good for a lot less than $475k... Hmu when you do. This thing is legit
I'm relying on the Lottery personally. I'm not that good of a boy during the year - Last year Santa came down my chimney and took stuff OUT of my home.
Wow! I've been following the evolution of this vehicle category and this one is by far, one of the best I've seen! Just wait until I win the Lotto.......
iLikeC00kieDough No they would not... think about it, you dont have fuel, you dont have food, you have a couple bullets, they are more likely to kill the guy when he leaves then take the truck... they have brains and will think "that truck could be loaded with fuel"
I had a coworker in San Francisco that got tired of driving 3 hours a day into the city. Bought an older van conversion, and slept in semi-van friendly parts of the city during the week. Showered at the gym. Later found a new job, sold the van for what he paid.
You shouldn't use the Super Duty platform, they're unreliable and hard to work on, not to mention foreign countries wont have parts. A Freightliner M2-106 would be a much better starting platform, already equipped with air suspension and compressor, theres no need to major modifications, Cummins ISB 6.7 and Allison 3500 is the best combination you can get on a medium duty truck. Freightliner uses Mercedes parts, Cummins and Allison are used all over the world.
I'm sure they thought of these things when deciding what to build it on. Nobody would built a millionaires road toy on a truck that's unreliable, obviously they did their research and concluded the F550 was their best choice.
They used a dually rear axle then only use a single rear wheel. Exposing the rotor to rocks. But also shifting the weight not centered on the wheel bearings, but only on the outer bearing. You guys need to better job at the rear axle setup.
US, negara besar dengan jumlah penduduk sedikit, taman nasionalnya bagus-bagus, dengan kondisi cuaca 4 musim, tanpa dibatasi laut, tempat ideal untuk para penjelajah, pengen banget
Incase anyone was wondering, on their website they don't have a price for a new one of these, but a used one is right around half a million bucks. So pretty affordable if say! /s
Overkill? A friend of mine bought a great, heavy duty military surplus truck that's bigger and tougher (a few thousand, I think). Outfit it with another $20K in survival feature add-ons and it's more than enough to handle 90% of what he might face. $450K extra to cover the last 10% is beyond nuts.
I'm curious why nobody bothered to put an exterior 110V outlet on the body(or maybe they did and it wasn't mentioned), and how much use anyone would get out of an exterior TV. I mean, a TV inside is nice when you need the kids to relax before bed, or on a day when the rain or snow wiped out your plans. But at least for me, I see way more utility in a stainless work surface out there; something to clean fish or game on, or to set out food for a crowd when group camping. I don't know many campers who would drive out to a site just to drag out their chair and watch the game outside; I expect that would be even more true for guys who invested in a rig they could take ANYWHERE, and not some big-ass A-class bus. Is it standard, or just a flashy option?
@ 3:22 he shows the 30 amp power connection. As for the tv outside, I've seen several times people sitting out side watching tv. As for the stainless work surface, you got the money they could add it. I think they have a outdoor cooking option, saw it in another youtube video.
That's a 30A 240V shore power connection, to plug the unit into a power source at an RV park or similar situation and bypass the battery system. I'm talking about a standard 15A or 20A 120V receptacle on the exterior camp side, something you could plug into a regular old extension cord into.
There is an outlet. (or two?) I have one and I know I have a 110 outlet on my back bumper. There might be one up front, but I haven't looked for it yet.
At 11:10 the reflection on the TV is better than anything you will ever find on a TV at a campsite. I guess you may need a TV to get your kids to come travel with you though...
god this thing is awesome !!!! genuinely impressed with all the tech stuff , but since this an off road vehicle all this stuff translates to all the stuff that can malfunction, hope the ppl who made this awesome vehicle used the electronics that can take the beating.
@@NickC9545 Okay that was funny, if you can buy one of these you just have extra cassette toilets on hand and pull the full one out and leave it at the gas station and put the new one in. Plus one meal from Casa Bonita will have you filling it up it's so small.
Earth Roamers are awesome, but us normal people can't afford them. I am a retired police officer and wanted to buy and use one of these as my residence. Wow! I could not believe how much these are. Even used they are out of my reach. Nice but only a dream for me.
Zoe Thompson time equals money. My time is more valuable than making this one truck. I haven't seen a similar design that offers remote flexibility, mobility and with comfort.
tachyonzero yeah well for that kind of money they should go back to the cat...ford made a huge mistake putting their own, to small of an engine into heavy duty vehicles
There is a vehicle for everyone, people said " it's so expensive" about the Bugatti and other cars, innovation is an industry leader. Look at Tesla, their first car started as a luxury car and worked its way to an affordable model 3. Earthromer has been around for years and supports many families from its workforce. You can have an opinion but it doesn't mean there is a correlation
i really don't understand how that truck could be worth anywhere near that much money... truck is 100 grand tops and then the biggest fifth wheel you can buy which has 10 times the usability and gizmos and money put into it than the small camper trailer is 100 grand as well.... where is the extra almost 300 grand coming from?
The inefficiency of hand building custom orders with a small team of craftsmen. You're paying them a living, while they put these things together at a snail's pace. Twice the markup of a similar utility big maker RV. They beef if up enough to try to justify the huge sticker price. BTW, $450k is the entry level for these things. I'd love one, but I think they are at least 40% more expensive than they should be.
I make semi-custom software for a living. We charge companies $1000 a month, or $12k a year, for a program that does a few things. Microsoft Office does 100x more, and costs a couple bucks a month. But people happily pay us $1k a month, because otherwise, they wouldn't have the exact thing they want... theyd be stuck trying to make excel and access do somewhat of what they want.
1000 miles? Damn that's pretty efficient.. First time seeing this and the whole "zombie apocalypse" shit, I'm just like .. oh yeah try getting gas for that thing in the apocalypse. but if you're not going through like 4 states at a time, gas will last like too damn long ..
Believe it or not. I can probably afford this if I financed. (regional sales director for a successful chain of dealerships ). But I'll rather stick with a $8,000 used mid size SUV and $200 worth of gear, and just take a shit in the woods. This recreational machine will only make sense for the "super rich". I find this type a vehicle a hard sale for a small market.
Incredible, I like this alot . With an additional 3 grand we will swap out the TV for a side mounted retractable electric Gatling gun , with a laser sight.
Angel George yeah California is a tough area to buy these days....my house was purchased in 1997 when the prices were at an all time low, for about 175,000. Now it is valued around 500,000. We got really really lucky. This is in the Sacramento county area
Que sensacional, queria que tivesse no Brasil, este tipo de equipamento, parabéns pelo projeto! Meu sonho era ter um Motor home, agora é ter uma destes Camper.
Freedom? From what? diesel bills? Replacement tires? Replacement batteries? All the very expensive maintenance that goes with a half a million dollar tank that is soft body like any other Ford truck so it's susceptible to damage...yeah it's nice but Freedom? I don't think so...
They are simply carriages equipped with all the equipment you need for commuting in the wilderness, but the price remains the hurdle in acquiring such a thing

i really don't understand how that truck could be worth anywhere near that much money... truck is 100 grand tops and then the biggest fifth wheel you can buy which has 10 times the usability and gizmos and money put into it than the small camper trailer is 100 grand as well.... where is the extra almost 300 grand coming from?
It's a business, he started the business to make money
The inefficiency of hand building custom orders with a small team of craftsmen. You're paying them a living, while they put these things together at a snail's pace. Twice the markup of a similar utility big maker RV. They beef if up enough to try to justify the huge sticker price. BTW, $450k is the entry level for these things. I'd love one, but I think they are at least 40% more expensive than they should be.
I make semi-custom software for a living. We charge companies $1000 a month, or $12k a year, for a program that does a few things. Microsoft Office does 100x more, and costs a couple bucks a month. But people happily pay us $1k a month, because otherwise, they wouldn't have the exact thing they want... theyd be stuck trying to make excel and access do somewhat of what they want.
We need the get the guy from leisure travel vans to model this truck for us. I’m sure he would go nuts
Best I've seen! Gives a really thorough impression. Good thinking combined with practical use. A very good product.
he spended half a million dollar on this truck and says you don't have to think about hotels while travelling OMG man are u serious 🤨😑
1000 miles? Damn that's pretty efficient..
First time seeing this and the whole "zombie apocalypse" shit, I'm just like .. oh yeah try getting gas for that thing in the apocalypse. but if you're not going through like 4 states at a time, gas will last like too damn long ..
hope I own it one day, leisure,luxury and relaxation for old man like me at the country site.
Tiger, Earthcruiser, Allterrain Warrior, and Earthroamer...GXV also..these are all nice options..
Now the animals can power choke on the power smoke form the power stroke
Clayton Baldwin this truck is better for the environment then most cars diesel isn’t that bad specially with def
Believe it or not. I can probably afford this if I financed. (regional
sales director for a successful chain of dealerships ). But I'll rather
stick with a $8,000 used mid size SUV and $200 worth of gear, and
just take a shit in the woods. This recreational machine will only make
sense for the "super rich". I find this type a vehicle a hard sale for a
small market.
They only produce 13 per year. They also have over a year's worth of backlogged orders. I think they're doing ok. It's likely a very small company.
Incredible, I like this alot .
With an additional 3 grand we will swap out the TV for a side mounted retractable electric Gatling gun , with a laser sight.
Now, that is a job well done! Good work Bill!
Why does this cost as much as a two story house
The Lag Janitor bay area price u cant even get a mobile home for that price it sucks
Angel George yeah California is a tough area to buy these days....my house was purchased in 1997 when the prices were at an all time low, for about 175,000. Now it is valued around 500,000. We got really really lucky. This is in the Sacramento county area
@LJ - the presenter says the vehicle represents "freedom". Hmmm ~ freedom if you can afford it. But unreachable for us lesser lights.
I thought that power socket at 9:00 said "Cunt" for a good few seconds.
so many nice things to break! it's a piece of art. I would have a hard time taking that 10 miles from my garage.
Que sensacional, queria que tivesse no Brasil, este tipo de equipamento, parabéns pelo projeto! Meu sonho era ter um Motor home, agora é ter uma destes Camper.
buy a freaking surplus 6x6 and turn it into a camper. damn.
the founder and ceo looks like a beaver
TheXeeman Beavers the original survivalist, dam it.
TheXeeman Half beaver, half human. That's why he made an off-road RV that can adjust it's height to go across streams.
Aeschlimann1 lol
TheXeeman Ha ha ha, I'm truely ROTFL, this is the first time ever a beaver becomes a CEO
w0bblyd0inkb0ink looks a bit like quasimodo too...
Wow such a amazing vehicle it would definitely be money well spent
this is a joy to watch
Freedom? From what? diesel bills? Replacement tires? Replacement batteries? All the very expensive maintenance that goes with a half a million dollar tank that is soft body like any other Ford truck so it's susceptible to damage...yeah it's nice but Freedom? I don't think so...
Need an onboard compressor and zip gun for all those wheel nuts !!!!!!!!!!!
Tod Lindley it obviously has one for the six air bags it has and it has an air hook up in the back
Bad ass!! Very thoughtful and well planned out setup!!
They are simply carriages equipped with all the equipment you need for commuting in the wilderness, but the price remains the hurdle in acquiring such a thing
Yea well I remember the high school days at the lake sleeping in the bed of of my $2500.00 dodge ram and a $15.00 sleeping bag.
Did it have a external TV??😋
