2018 ACELA Monterra GL 6X6 $329,000
This is the ultimate off-grid vehicle that takes you places other off-roaders can only dream about. Only 30k miles on this incredible vehicle that has spent its last 2 years in Baja and Alaska. Please visit Acelatruck.com to understand the detailed restoration process this truck was put through before being re-born as a full-time 6X6 Overland/Expedition vehicle. Need to 'bug-out" for awhile or just want to escape (un)civilization without sacrificing comfort? Here is your answer. Is there a stream or river between you and that pristine destination? Not a problem for this rig as it can ford up to 30 inches of water. Here is a rundown of some of its features:

Below the E-Brake and Trailer air button, the black box with the three black buttons and the two red buttons is the CTIS controller. Central Tire Inflation System. Basically on the fly airing up and down of the tires for certain types of terrain.

To the right of the E-brake and Trailer is the standard AC unit which is a very expensive addition/feature to have in these trucks

Beautiful truck guys - where in CA are you located? My wife and I are considering building our own but saw this and may opt to buy one already built.
