I’ve featured way too many sensible rigs recently, so it’s about time that I post another rolling mansion. I never get over the price of these 4WD giants, especially as I’m not entirely sure how suitable they are for round-the-world exploration. However, there’s no denying these builds are very impressive and better equipped than most apartments. I’d also add that these larger vehicles are the perfect, albeit prohibitively expensive, solution for long-term family travel (alternatively, if you’re ambitious enough, you can build something comparable yourself for less, see this Man Kat 1 Build for inspiration). The Patagonia is produced by Global Expedition Vehicles and is a no-expense-spared behemoth designed to conquer the toughest terrains while being completely self-sufficient for long durations. The company, based in Springfield, Missouri, produces rigs that are “custom-built and designed by our staff’s extensive travel knowledge to help overlanders foresee requirements related to their travel adventures.” If you’d like a better idea of the interior layout of this truck then check out this Patagonia 19 Full-Tour on The Driver’s Seat YouTube channel. Today’s 2019 offering has covered just 18,000 miles and is “practically new and ready to hit the road.”
From the Seller:
“We are selling our 2019 Kenworth 22-foot box Global Expedition Vehicles Patagonia. We have been living in ‘Eve’ for the past year and she has performed miraculously, a true off-grid beast. We would often do 10 or more days of off-grid living. Plenty of upgrades pre and post-build and fully dialed in. Beat the wait time and get into a near-new GXV that’s been maintained thoroughly at Kenworth, GXV, and Cummins.”
