EarthCruiser is a company synonymous with no-expense-spared overland builds, and today’s low-mileage (51,529 miles) 2017 FX is no exception. At $330,000 this is a very expensive vehicle but a sound investment, as the company states that resale value often exceeds “80 percent of the purchase price.” This means you can purchase an EarthCruiser, travel the world, and upon your return, sell for the vast majority of what you paid. The FX is not simply a capable all-terrain vehicle but a four-season rolling home that’s equipped for extensive off-grid, self-sufficient exploration. Subsequently, these monster rigs are a popular choice on our forum for extended travel with recent examples including this 2018 EXP #44, a 2021 FX, and a 2019 FX#61. If you’d like a closer look at how this vehicle performs for long-term travel then check out the videos from Driveby, Down2Mob Overland, and We’re the Russos.
From the Seller:
“This EarthCruiser was my father’s pride and joy and he has taken meticulous care of it. It has had regular maintenance before and after every trip at a local Fuso dealer and has been kept spotless and smoke-free. Owning an EarthCruiser gives you access to the EarthCruiser Owners Club which is an exclusive community of like-minded people who are constantly organizing trips together and have a wealth of knowledge of these vehicles. This is a unique and solid vehicle and one of the few EarthCruisers on the east coast. This is the last diesel Fuso EarthCruiser made, which the owner of EarthCruiser company had commented was a unicorn.”
