The Mitsubishi is a favorite for heavier expedition builds with recent offerings including this $210,000 2012, a $250,000 2015, and a $105,000 2017. Despite showcasing many of the same desirable attributes, today’s 2007 Mitsubishi Fuso 4×4 (162,000 miles) is priced at just $69,000 and “is ready for your next expedition.” One of the biggest advantages of this truck is that it was sold globally, which means access to parts at home and abroad. It was for these reasons and more that it was EarthCruiser’s platform of choice for many years and remains a popular choice for expedition truck builders. In addition, it enjoys best-in-class 30,000-kilometer service intervals, which is a testament to its workhorse credentials. In stock form, the 4WD variant is already impressive when the tarmac ends but thanks to impressive aftermarket support it can meet the needs of even the most ambitious travelers. If you’d like a better idea of how this platform can be uprated for technical backcountry scenarios then check out the adventures of Robert Pepper and Van Off Road.
From the Seller:
“Designed for global travel in tough environments and equipped with everything you need while still a manageable size. Built to handle very low temperatures. The whole water system is inside the cabin; it’s fully insulated, and fitted with a diesel air heater (it has been used down to -17°F comfortably). The vehicle only requires diesel and fresh water to operate. If you are looking for a go-anywhere vehicle for multi-week trips that can still fit in a regular parking space, this is for you. As an avid explorer myself, I have taken it across the Mountain West on back road trails in both summer and winter, and it has never failed to impress me. Now, it’s time for it to embark on new adventures with its next owner.”
