That is a very well thought out, nicely appointed weekend/vacation/ARRL accomplishment. Congrats.

In a real world SHTF situation it's a slow moving target. A BOV it's not.

lol wat?

SHTF is too broad a term and variable a situation for one sized fits all vehicle. That fits many and arguably most reasonable scenarios. Not enough Humongous?

^^^ Those EarthRoamers are some VERY nice rigs. We still have one based on an F550 chassis on our list of possible upgrades.

I have visited their facility in Colorado twice and spoken with Bill Swails (Company owner) several times.

First time I've been inside one was today. Guy I picked up some expedition gear from was working on his dads. The workmanship inside was well above average. I'm building a knockoff Sportsmobile, but if I had the dinero, an earthroamer would be the ticket.

The problem with EarthRoamers is you'd better be well into the multi-millionaire range of wealth to comfortably afford one. I checked into one of the smaller models and it was $280,000 bare bones and $544,000 loaded. In most places that's the same price as a damn nice house.

Cool toy!

About zero urban versitility. Even on the run, use some Mad Max ideology here.. that will be on it's side in minutes.

Even Russia and the Germans figured that out.

Mad Max vehicles looked cool but didn't seem real safe, either. A lot of exposed cockpits, etc.
