xv 1 Jeep Based EarthRoamer XV JP

In a move that has combined backwoods “I betcha” with corporate “can do,” EarthRoamer has managed to crank out the first trail rated camper, proving that mobile sleeping arrangements aren’t just for Vanagons anymore. Based on a Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon platform, the EarthRoamer has all the tricks you need to keep comfy on the move, including toilet, 6,100 BTU furnace (better than my first apartment) and indoor and outdoor showers fed by an onboard 25 gallon water tank. There’s a kitchenette, too! The rig comes equipped with a solar panel to keep the batteries charged and a heavy-duty alternator to shoulder the extra electrical burden. Being Rubicon based, the XV-JP comes with Dana 44 axles front and rear and a 9,000 lb Warn winch. Better than towing a pop-up, especially as this one is tall enough to protect you from lions. Just beware of blood-thirsty giraffes. [Autoblog]
