The EEXP is SOLD
(5/18/18 $38,000)
This overland adventuremobile is ready to tackle the globe. It is a one off custom build, with the design brief being that it is able to carry lots of adventure sports gear on long remote journeys for two people, while being fully self sufficient, comfortable and dependable. It is designed to fit in a high cube shipping container, so that it can be shipped anywhere in the world. The rig is based on a 2001.5 Dodge Ram 2500 4×4 Ext Cab Short Bed with 24v Cummins Diesel, with an automatic transmission. The truck has been modified for off-road capability, durability and dependability. The vehicle first hit the road in May of 2014, as a completed overland expedition rig, and has since circumnavigated North America, and crisscrossed it many times. It has been my full time rolling house since it was built.
The vehicle has been featured on magazine covers, been a multi time SEMA show vehicle, been featured in numerous online media outlets and been a featured vehicle at off-road/overland industry events across the country. For a full list of media featuring the vehicle, as well as build partners and all other information about the build, be sure to check out the EEXP Page.

Full records since February 19, 2014 at 87,629 miles, when I purchased it. The truck is a northeast US, PA & NY, truck, so it does have rust. I have replaced nearly every bolt under the vehicle and cleaned up much of the rust on the frame and body.

Overall this vehicle is ready for adventure anywhere you can dream up. It is a well used, and loved adventuremobile, so don’t expect a show queen. The truck does have some rust on the lower body panels and there is an engine oil leak, but it’s less than 1 liter per 5,000 miles. There is some mold stains on the camper tent material, some non-structural gel-coat cracks in the camper, the Webasto Dualtop needs to be repaired and the fresh water system needs a new filter to work properly.
The vehicle has a clear Maryland title in my name. It is registered as a pickup, but it could easily be registered as an RV, which would make the insurance even more inexpensive.
This is my primary vehicle, so mileage will increase as time moves forward. The vehicle is sold as is, with no warranty, implied or provided. Shipment or delivery can be arranged, at buyers cost.
This vehicle is adventure proven and ready to take you on your next great adventure, where ever in the world that might be. All photos in this post were taken April 11, 2016. Thanks for looking, and don’t hesitate to email me with any questions. I’m a VERY motivated seller, as I need to sell this vehicle before moving on to other adventures that I have in the works. The vehicle is currently located in Reno, NV, and will be at Overland Expo West in Flagstaff, AZ.
Thanks,
Bryon Dorr
