Hey ya, folks!
I haven't been active here much since the pandemic panic gathered momentum.
Have visited some, lurking to see if folks I knew were still around and to just revisit my nomad roots.
I'm back to see if there's interest from someone about buying my camping rig.
3 months ago I had a fuel line leak and subsequent significant engine fire, in southern most Utah, where the rig is now, parked at an acquaintance's home.
The last 3 months have been a rollercoaster ride of sorts, to say the least.
I believe selling the rig, as is, suits me best, considering all personal circumstances.
The truck was running great when fire occurred, has 145k mi and I am the second owner.
Circumstances, beyond the scope of this post, had me eventually traveling back East, just a few days after the fire, and I am just now intending to return to UT to sell the rig
The camper was not damaged at all and body damage seems limited to some melted plastic pieces.
Without doing much research I am guestimating $5000 worth of work would need to be done if hired out. Maybe $2500 apiece for parts/labor
I'll have a better idea of that once in UT.
I am posting this here first because I would love to see a Nomad from CRVL enjoy this rig as much as I have.
With freshened engine, different wheel/tire setup, windows upgrade and some interior tweaks they would basically have an economy version of an EarthRoamer.
In last 2 years I have been all over the country, primarily in remote wilderness areas. After gutting the camper and reassembling it with about 1000 screws, lol, it's still tight as a drum
I'll have a more detailed post to offer after I get back to St. George, UT.
If there's no interest here I will post it to Expedition Portal, Craigslist and or eBay
I'm asking $15,000 with no wiggle room at this point. This will include everything on rig minus most hand tools and personal items. Including 305 watts solar, Dickinson Marine propane furnace, Nature's Head toilet, etc.
That will be more firmly defined later
I am open to some partial trade that may interest me, I e.:
1. Cargo trailer, prefer enclosed
2. Remote off grid piece of land with 3 seasons of mild weather
3. Above average fuel efficient vehicle, prefer truck
4. 2nd amendment items
5. Yurt or similar
If your interest is piqued look at my build thread in my signature. There's a lot of info there, do your research. If you do Facebook I can direct you more info there. PM me for FB, phone, email contact info.
Pics are day after fire
More info soon.
Peace,
Mark
