Priscilla thats her name. My daughter named her that.
We have taken her to the tip of South America and the Northern most point of the the lower 48 and everywhere else in between. And now she is looking for a new home as we are headed off somewhere we she cannot go.
This is a fully equipped overland rig - meaning it has been used for exactly that and is loaded up. We are an Australian family that is living and working in New Mexico thats is where the truck is located - we built Priscilla from the ground up 4 years ago - myself and some very talented mechanics and race engineers.
She is a one of a kind rig and the process of a year of planning and a 6 month build with top shelf components - all receipts available. We lived in her for 2 years while traveling this side of the planet - she never let us down and took us to places that people rarely go.
We would really like to find a family or an adventurer who will love the truck as much as we have and be able to call it home on an adventure of their own.
With that in mind we are pricing Priscilla very fairly and well below the value we invested (read the specs price at bottom ) - the catch is we are not going to sell her to just anybody we really want her to go to someone that appreciates what she can do and use her thus. She is loaded in New Mexico USA but this is an international sale everybody is welcome. She would be perfect for a European, North American family, couple, solo who want to see north and south America as it is a USA registered car easily insured and can go anywhere you wish to take it.

Yep thats it but like I said not just going to sell it to anyone, we want it to be fair and not just going to a cashed up buyer a couple of sentences on your reason for wanting it would be nice.
This is not really negotiable because it is a steal, if you know the vehicle and what it can do and how its put together
you'll understand this. It is far superior to what passes muster for an expedition rig on this site no offense to anyone but is the truth.
We can drive it you if need be. All mechanical tests inspections welcome
More phot available on request - I can do top to bottom for interested buyer.
