Traveling and Visiting Friends in Malaysia

Why EarthCruiser is a Great Truck to Travel in! There are many reasons why traveling in an EarthCruiser is great!  Here is another reason why. Isamal a friend of Lance and Michelle has invited them to his home. In the picture below is his very nice Land Cruiser on a  very small two lane road. Lance and Michelle followed him onto this street that is not meant for large vehicles. The corners are tight, but the EarthCruiser fits. Simple stuff we know, but who would want to miss out on a visit with a friend! On this two-lane road we

GZL Snow Camping at Hart Mountain

Snow Camping for NYE With all this beautiful snow Central Oregon has been receiving Lance and Michelle could not pass up a trip out to Hart Mountain with the GZL for NYE. This is exactly why we do this… It’s a chance to get out and explore in comfort! With temperatures being below zero it was a great opportunity to test out the portable heater the GZL comes with. Also it’s a great time of the year to check out the amazing night sky. Hart Mountain is about 4 hours Southeast of Bend, Oregon and has some great outdoor features to be

Into the Jungle Alpha Goes

Jungle Time for EarthCruiser “Alpha” EarthCruiser Alpha heads into the jungle of Malaysia. During monsoon season these tracks change very quickly. When the logging road are dry, they are great, but with just a few inches of rain they are whole new experience! One must always keep this in mind.   Anywhere an EarthCruiser fits is a camp site. There was just enough flat-ish ground pushed to one side for us. We had no idea who would use the track this evening.    It’s all about the details.  Even in monsoon weather we can open the windows. How, you ask? The

Open the Box and Go Explore with Alpha!

Getting Alpha Out of the Container Not the first time we have done this, but it is still so special! Opening the doors and there it is, the very same EarthCruiser Alpha we loaded up early one morning with the EarthCruiser team back in Bend, Oregon. There is Alpha waiting patiently to get on the move. Just undo the tie down straps in the front and rear and we are almost ready to go! Lance likes to turn the wheel fully one direction. This helps to hold the vehicle in place from the rough seas moving it from side to

EarthCruiser Alpha Arrives in a Box

Alpha Arrives in Malaysia Before Alpha arrives to go explore Malaysia we must get everything in order with customs.  Upon arrival from the US, to leave the port, customs officials must first inspect the cargo “EarthCruiser Alpha”. After review customs then reseals the container. With everything in order, it is our choice to have EarthCruiser Alpha delivered to the freight forwarder premises. Typical is what is known as “swing lift”, not all companies have them, but many do. They are a quick economic method of delivering containers to the ground. In about 10 minutes the container is off the truck and is ready
