For additional photos of the interior of our Turtle XL go to the GXV website & click on Models- click on Turtle- click on Interior Gallery- click on Natura Opening Wall, Dual -Pane Acrylic Windows. There you will see interior views of our Turtle XL when it was first completed. It has been on the road only since July 2018.

Several people have asked for specifics on the chassis. Here they are as attachments- NOTE: the bench seat was replaced with 2 cloth bucket seats. Driver's side seat is electronically controlled. IMG_0712.jpgIMG_0713.jpgIMG_0714.jpgIMG_0715.jpgIMG_0716.jpg

Could anyone tell me what one of these would have been new with similar options? The site shows it starts at 280k, but I have no idea what the options would be and what the discounts would be.

I've read that options are commonly around 25 to 30% of the base price. And a quick search shows those batteries alone are around $10,000 each. I'm obviously no expert, but the wife and I were seriously contemplating the Adventure Truck, so we've done a lil research. Even took a trip to GXV to check it out. Their stuff is awesome. The base Adventure Truck is 198k, but I figure at least 250-270k with the options most would get, which fits in well with that 25-30% I had seen before online.

Discounts? I don't think GXV/AT gives any discounts.

These Turtle's rarely come up for sale, and comparing this used rig to other similar options (ER, EC, etc), it's a rare opportunity.

I'm pretty sure they mean how big a discount is this used rig vs the same rig new. Obviously if it was a savings of 10 or 20k, not worth it prolly. But if its 50-80k cheaper? Pretty good deal!

Even with a price not much lower than a new one you can avoid the delay required to get a new one. Assuming it is close to what you want in terms of configuration you can start using it now.

Ryan is in the right ballpark - a new Turtle XL (larger than the standard version) with these options would be well over 300k.

There was the F550 that was up for sale for $140,000. And like 44k miles, it's hard to price used GXV's
