Overland Classifieds :: 2018 Ram 2500 Diesel Prospector XL build w/ AT Overland Atlas

Over the past few weeks, I’ve featured several budget-friendly rigs, including this $16,000 2001 Land Cruiser and a $17,900 Grand Cherokee CRD. However, for diversity’s sake, I figured it was time for something luxurious and altogether more extreme—cue today’s 2018 Ram 2500 Prospector XL. I don’t use the word “beast” lightly, but this highly modified, 6.7-liter diesel, overland-ready Ram priced at a whopping $120,000 is exactly that. This is a serious truck that has undergone extensive modifications and showcases premium parts from American Expedition Vehicles fitted by Southern Overland Outfitters and is priced accordingly. Moreover, it has covered a mere 25,000 miles, features the Big Horn package, has a meticulous service history, and enjoys a factory warranty until January 2024.

From the Seller:

I am the second owner of this truck; it was purchased new in January 2021 as leftover inventory by its original owner down in NC. The truck is a 2018 Ram 2500 6.7-liter diesel, [with the] Big Horn package, and has just crossed 25,000 miles. Truck has sport seats, heated seats, a heated steering wheel, 8.4 Uconnect, and a power driver’s seat. The truck’s interior is clean and smoke-free.”
