I recently featured this 2000 Ford E-350 Camper and discussed how overland rigs could be an affordable alternative to expensive housing. Since then, I happened to look at some properties in my local area (Kent, United Kingdom), and a two-bedroom terrace house with no parking and a tiny garden was listed for £300,000. Prices like this are truly crazy. It begs the question, is there another option? Overland vehicles may be expensive at first glance, but these rolling homes are a bargain compared to actual houses. This 1999 Ford E-350, with a desirable Ujoint Offroad 4×4 conversion, showcases a beautiful camper interior suitable for full-time living and is priced at $62,500. No small sum of money for a vehicle but a bargain price for a home.
From the Seller:
“This 1999 Ford E-350 Super Duty 4×4 7.3-liter DRW adventure rig has been extensively modified for comfortable off-grid living and travel. The Ujoint Offroad 4×4 conversion was completed in 2015, so the suspension and drivetrain are essentially new. The engine and transmission were overhauled during the conversion, and the rig has been driven approximately 14,000 miles since completion.”
