Nice rig but...I don't care how many bells and whistles it may have, there is no way it's worth $450k.

I don’t know, man. $75k cab & chassis. Plus $100k maximum for the “box” on the back. It’s not some new technological marvel. Hundreds of these are built by different companies every day.

LOVE this stuff! Basically a very expensive and more hard-core version of what we built. Same Principle. Thanks for the video!

Matt and Cara that's amazing!! What an adventure to be able to take that!!

Hi Matt and Cara, what an amazing truck. Thank you so much for sharing.

How cool was that. I remember seeing this vehicle at Moore. It was extremely cool meeting you both at Moore. ❤❤❤

Get one!!!

That’s SICK!

Wow, what a great video Matt and Kara. Thank you for visiting Global X and taking our truck out. We truly appreciate the effort you put forth to present an honest option on this type of overland travel. My wife and I are close to retirement, own a well equipped gladiator with a Super Pacific canopy camper and have been on a lot of the trails you have on your patron channel. For Arkansas and Missouri, the Gladiator is the perfect. We are planning a 2-3 year full time trip to explore the Canadian Rockies, Alaska, Baja, and Maybe even South America. The essence of overlanding is vehicle based travel over long distances to experience multiple types of topography and cultures. I cant imagine having a better home base for such an adventure. Considering the camera gear will bring and the need for 4 seasons of clothing, the extended time and distance of off grid travel, this type of Rig is ideal, Can it go where my Gladiator Can, heck no. But my intent for off roading on a long distance trip is to take my wife and I to the most beautiful locations for dispersed camping, photography, and enjoyment of the outdoors. This Rig can do all of that and more while remaining comfortable, which ultimate leads to a longer trip with greater experiences. Thanks again, we love you guys and will see you on the trails.

My new favorite term!“Bougie Frenchie” Looks like a nice rig!

Those are stinking awesome, and if I had an extra $500K and traveled a lot, I would love to have one...

That's super cool. I'm fairly sure I saw that truck driving by Fort Leonard Wood the other day!

I like seeing real world use of this ride, unlike some other “van life” KZreadrs ;)

I can't help but wonder how many people who can afford something like that are into off roading and camping.

it's alot of money but so are many things we like. it could easily pull a jeep or another vehicle. and would be nice to come home to after a day on the trail. plus you can write off the interest payment as a rv just like a home . enjoyed the video. thanks

These are so cool. Limiting in some ways I’m sure but id love to see someone doing a KZread channel regularly with one of these (hint hint lol)

Been a hot minute since I’ve watched a video (maybe a year) but my goodness Cara is looking great! I’m on my own weight loss journey and it’s never easy! The Ozarks is looking beautiful right now and can’t wait to get back down and relax next to some healing water. But GladeTop is such a great spot for new Overlanders, always try to bring a group from KC down for a weekend or two!

I've got to get me a tag like the one on the red Gladiator love it

I didn’t even know this model existed, it’s not even on the website. I love this, where do I get more info on it

Cool if you were on glade top trail you were in my back yard. Really looked like it. Awesome rig. But I cant swing it. But if ya could would be great.👍🏻

It’s nice having Glade Top about an hour from home.

Im wondering which one 🤔. Lol great video buddy!

Nice video.

Hey Matt, this may be too complicated of a question, but do you think a stock Subaru outback could make it pretty easily from Lake City to Ouray via the alpine loop? I know you've driven that a few times from your videos. Blue Mesa Bridge is out near Gunnison and we have a trip later this year where we were going to go from lake city up to black canyon national parks and then down to Ouray. But with the bridge out we are looking for alternate routes if needed and think that would be fun if doable. Thanks for any help and if you know the best way to navigate that crossing if you think it's doable I'd greatly appreciate the advice. Thanks

Come'on. Take it over Black Bear Pass! Haha.

these things are amazing , could tow one of your Gladiators . idk about that $450 k price tag though ! i know it takes time and effort and material etc etc etc but $450k?! . i guess your trip with EFRT had an impact on y'all . looking forward to your future adventures . Ford F450 chassis with a godzilla 7.3 V8 regular fuel engine , liquid springs etc etc ( the rest kinda like EFRT has ) . my opinion, but i have no idea what your plans are, if expedition or still tight trails -rock crawling like y'all been doing ( i just don't like diesel with the DPF-def stuff )

@@OzarkOverlandAdventures i know , was just saying my opinion if y'all thinking about these kinds of rigs .i edited my comment a bit

Well, this is a tough one. Let's leave the price outside for now. The rig is very capable to go places, but also too big to go to other places. I think it is great from a tiny home on wheels perspective. If this would work with my budget and plans, I would definitely consider it. I come from a Ford F250 platform and a Supertramp camper. I sold it and now have a Rossmonster Baja on order. The GXV looks like it is a great build, but the price and overall height is what drew me into the Rossmonster Baja world. The GXV looks great, but how many of those are ever going to be built? The RAM platform is also a turnoff for me. I will never ever buy a Chrysler or Stellantis vehicle again. These things start falling apart the moment the warranty is up. The market for these rigs is getting crowded quickly. Not sure if Storyteller Overland will be able to keep up with the customer demands ...

I don’t really understand the intended purpose of this rig. Where would you take this thing? It would get high-centered on half of the campsite trails I take my Gladiator on. Feels like an extreme example of the overland tax.

@OzarkOverlandAdventures

I stated the purpose of it very clearly in the video. 🤦🏼‍♂️ It’s for people traveling far more than most for months at a time or longer. Of course it won’t get everywhere a Gladiator will but did you not see the ground clearance on it? It will get a lot more places an RV or Sprinter van will. I feel like you didn’t watch the video and just came here to make a dumb comment. 🤷🏼‍♂️😂

TBD but the Rossmonster is smaller based on the 3500 chassis instead of the 5500.

It's maybe a nice rig but the only downfall about a Dodge truck is you can't see over the damn hood the other thing is in the driver's seat the pillar is in your way of your sight and the same thing with the passenger side I'd rather stick to the Ford or the Chevy so much better and if it's a diesel no way for high-cost machine that's going to cost a lot of money to you know high maintenance and everything to get fixed rather stick to gasoline the other thing is I can find gas stations with gasoline a lot easier than I can with diesel in some places sorry just being honest

@crispusattucks6094

2 ай бұрын

I think 350k is more reasonable. 450 seems high for what it is. When I first saw the outside I thought ok I can see 450. When I saw the inside I was a bit disappointed. It looks nice on the inside but the materials don’t seem great and you don’t get a lot for your money. For 450k there shouldn’t be an ounce of wood or MDF. My 40k 15ft trailer has no wood. All aluminum including cabinets. This is probably 3-4x the livable size of my trailer. My trailer also has 460ah of battery. This has 900ish? Maybe all the money went into the truck portion. I could see this truck base being 110 if not more with no offroad mods. With mods maybe another 30k. So that means the rv portion is 300k? No way.

It looks like they hired the interior guy that designed the insides of all the Coleman campers. All mdf cabinetry. The walls appear to be laminate or stick on vinyl…where’s the soft touch material or painted aluminum? The wall just below the bed is something you’d see in an airport lounge. If there is aluminum underneath why would they cover it with subpar materials?…they wouldn’t which leads me to believe the substructure is wood dressed with airport facade. The cabinets in the bathroom don’t even match. And who puts wood INSIDE a shower? I get it it’s teak or whatever. It doesn’t look right.
