If you love the outdoors, and you love to travel, the ultimate travel vehicle would be the EarthRoamer Xpedition vehicle based on the Ford F-550 platform.
According to EarthRoamer:
EarthRoamer Xpedition Vehicles (XVs) offers capability, comfort, quality and convenience unmatched by typical Recreational Vehicle (RVs). An EarthRoamer XV is a compact, energy efficient, solar powered luxury home, built on a go-anywhere, four-wheel drive, Ford commercial duty truck chassis, and powered by a quiet, efficient and powerful turbo diesel engine. EarthRoamer XVs offer unprecedented versatility, style, quality, and ease of operation.
EarthRoamer XVs are engineered for independent, standalone operation and are unlike any other vehicle in the marketplace. Unlike conventional RVs that depend on noisy generators and campground electrical connections for power, EarthRoamer Xpedition Vehicles use massive solar panel arrays, huge engine driven alternators and large battery banks to provide quiet and environmentally responsible power. All EarthRoamer XVs feature strong, lightweight, attractive, one-piece molded seamless composite bodies.
Break free from the limitations of an RV and experience the adventure of an EarthRoamer Xpedition Vehicle. Whether it’s a long weekend at the lake or an extended trip around the world, an EarthRoamer Xpedition Vehicle is the civilized way to escape civilization!
With an EarthRoamer XV you can…
- Travel safely and reliably to remote places, even on very rough roads and trails.
- Travel comfortably at highway speeds with up to six adults seated in a spacious cab and up to ten more people in the camper depending on options and model chosen.
- Enjoy a secure and weatherproof shelter with all of the comforts of home.
- Be totally self-contained and independent of external water, sewer and power hookups.
- Be environmentally responsible by running completely on renewable solar power and bio-diesel.
All EarthRoamer XV models are designed to carry passengers safely and comfortably over long distances, in all weather conditions both on and off road. Elegantly functional and luxurious living quarters provide a comfortable place to eat, sleep, shower and relax when taking a break from driving or upon reaching your final destination. With hard wood cabinetry, leather seating, granite counters, convection microwave, forced air furnace, air-conditioning, king-size bed and a private bathroom with shower, you will always be comfortable in your luxury condo on wheels. Two different base models are available – the ford F-550 based EarthRoamer XV-LT and the Ford F-650 based EarthRoamer XV-HD.
EarthRoamer XV-LT (Ford F-550 based)
There are seven configurations in the EarthRoamer XV-LT model lineup with lengths ranging from 22.6 feet to 27.5 feet long. Three different Ford cabs are available (Regular Cab, Super Cab and Crew Cab) and three different EarthRoamer camper body sizes are available (LT , LT Stretch, and LT Super Stretch).
If maximum maneuverability and off-road capability is your objective, the Regular Cab XV-LT is only 22.6 feet long and has a turning radius of only 21.2 feet – almost as tight as a four door Jeep Wrangler’s 20.6 foot turning radius! At the other end of the spectrum, if maximum cab and camper space is your priority, the Crew Cab XV-LT Stretch is 27.5 feet long and provides comfortable in-cab seating and sleeping quarters for up to four adults.

About The Author
Growing up, my father always believed that every family needed a truck—there’s just something about having a vehicle capable of hauling anything at a moment’s notice. That philosophy stuck with me, and it’s been the foundation of my lifelong passion for Ford trucks.
While I’m best known for my work with Ford Rangers, I’ve owned a wide variety of Ford trucks over the years—including F-150s, F-250s, F-350s, and even larger rigs like the Ford Excursion, Ford Expedition, and a 1982 Ford Econoline Sportsmobile camper van. I’ve used these vehicles for everything from family transportation to towing car trailers and campers, and each one has fueled my love for Ford’s versatility and durability.
I especially enjoy the styling of 1970s and 1980s Ford trucks—the bold designs, rugged presence, and classic charm are timeless. Sharing my passion for Ford trucks, vans, and SUVs with other enthusiasts online brings me a great deal of joy, and it’s why I created Blue Oval Trucks.
This website is dedicated to helping Ford truck enthusiasts explore, learn about, and celebrate these incredible vehicles. While I share my expertise and experiences here, Blue Oval Trucks is an independent enthusiast site and is not affiliated with Ford Motor Company.
