Hey Mr. Pueblo, here's your chance how can you pass on a deal like this, forget that you could buy half the state of Montana for that much money.

Salty,
And do a good deed too. He owes Colorado $80k in back taxes.

How are you feeling these days? I hope you're taking good care of yourself.

We just sold a Hawk Model to a customer in Bend, OR that had one of these.

I think he just sold it for around $150,000.00 used.

Pretty sure his main issue was that the rig was just TOO big to get into the places he wanted to go.

Believe he lives just a few blocks from Dirty Dog? I think he might have been one of the curious "lookers" that actually stopped by DD's house to get a look at his camper and ask questions before he bought.

Thanks DD !!



DD keep your eye our for a new hawk on a crew cab, ford F-150, king ranch.

He will probably be doing some drive-by's lol

Yeah that fella stopped by a couple times. I was surprised to find out he was the dude with the Earthroamer up the street. There's a good makreting story for you - guy sells Earthroamer to get FWC

Which half would that be? Because I love Montana, and I can get a loan...

One of the most beautiful things to me is 100% functionality, not granite counter tops and fine woods in an off road camper.

That said, a monoque ATC or FWC for nasty weather & high exposure exploration would be incredible.

Otherwise, the obese "Debtroamer" leaves me asking.......why ??

I'm sure it would fit in the Walmart parking lot

The same question (why?) was broached with Jay Shapiro and his Eco-Roamer. He managed to explain away every expenditure on a rig that when done (5 years and counting) will make 2 or 3 Earthroamers look like a bargain. In the end we can all rationalize the cost of just about anything we want. Its all relative isn't? If you have Shapiro's money a $500K+ 4X4 that's restricted to highways, graded roads and RV parks makes sense. At least to a few. Just like a 150K F250 Earthroamer makes sense to those who want one and can afford it. Hmmmm now how much is that second house batt gonna cost me?

[ScottBailey]

If I had the cash, I'd buy or build an Earthroamer. The granite is overkill, but there's a lot to like on those trucks. Well, I don't have the cash so it doesn't matter...
