The Truck Worth Waiting For

I Can’t Believe SEMA Is Here Already. This has been the statement used by pretty much the entire crew for the past few weeks. It’s amazing to look back to March 2018 when we first started discussing the v8 truck concept, to this past February when we started taking apart the first chassis. It has been a transformation in not just the vehicle, but how great our crew has worked together to make miracles happen. For 11 years EarthCruiser has seen over 177 vehicles fulfill dreams of exploration from the Steps of Mongolia, to the Steens Mountain in Oregon. This

Testing Out the New Garmin Overlander GPS Tablet

This spring Garmin released a new gps tablet aimed at the Overlander market at Overland Expo West in Flagstaff, AZ. Although the first release to the public isn’t planned until August 8th, they sent a few out for people to test. We were lucky enough to be among the few who got this chance, although we only received it on July 19th. Having limited opportunities to test the unit, I decided to use it during a trip to the Rocky Mountain Overland Rally in Gunnison, CO. Traveling primarily on paved highway, and only camping remotely one night, I cannot say

The New 2020 EarthCruiser EXP and FX

Our flagship expedition trucks are in for one major overhaul This year we are releasing an entirely new, more capable, reliable and purpose built EXP and FX expedition vehicles. The most notable change is that they will be powered by an ever reliable, fuel efficient v8 gasoline engine. Everyone here is excited to see the transition to a gasoline fueled powerplant from our preferred chassis manufacturer, Fuso. This platform will, at last, give us the flexibility needed to adjust drivetrain parameters, and create a platform that can be standardized across multiple truck lines (including dual cab models). Our new platform

First Glimpse of MOD and EXD

We are super excited to share photos of the first MOD and EXD products to our EarthCruiser audience. It took a huge effort from the crew, and it will all pay off once these beautiful vehicles get on the road. If you are looking for unique, there is nothing constructed quite like these campers. They are lightweight but rugged, simple but highly innovative, and just look damn good on any truck it’s mounted to. We’ll be putting up dedicated webpages soon, but check out the gallery below for pictures of the builds.

We Sent Our Marketing Guru Out for Some Extra Training

The Importance of Off-Road Driving Safety My passion for adventure travel started on two wheels. Once I bought my first bike, my dad and two uncles allowed me to tag along on weekend trips that explored the back roads of Ohio, West Virginia, Pennsylvania, and New York. I had absolutely no idea what I was getting into, but thankfully they did and had all the right gear if something was to go wrong. By wrong I don’t mean an accident either, it was normally wrong turns that got us lost with no cell service or a bad road that caused
