If you follow EarthCruiser, then the names “Lance and Michelle” are not new. Our intrepid founders have unparalleled experience in all things overlanding, having spent decades perfecting travel planning and hacks, and designing the ultimate expedition vehicles that are now known around the world as the iconic EarthCruiser.
When new customers come to EarthCruiser to design their ultimate vehicle, one of the most common questions is: “What do Lance and Michelle recommend as best options and add-ons?“
It’s such a frequently asked question we decided to create a very limited run of 3 custom EarthCruiser EXP Founders Editions.
These special vehicles feature details and options personally selected by Lance and Michelle based on their collective decades of overlanding experience around the world – and advising scores of EarthCruiser owners over the years.

EarthCruisers already carry a number of iconic features and the EarthCruiser EXP Founders Edition will feature all the regular favorites plus some extra bells and whistles many EarthCruiser owners just shouldn’t do without, like their favorite Snow Peak and Front Runner gear, recovery and first aid kits. They included a RuffWear Waterproof Dog Bed, and collapsible dish, must-haves for Lance and Michelle for their treasured fur baby, Strewth.
In addition to including their favorite gear, the Founder’s Edition includes an overnight with Lance and Michelle during the vehicle delivery.
