Number Ten
Starting with a Mercedes Sprinter low roof pop-top 4x4 van, Benchmark Vehicles created
their Swiss Army Sprinter conversion.
The van's exterior features black cladding, large windows, and a super awesome snorkel
for the engine.
The van can accommodate up to five people using adjustable rail-mounted seats.
There's plenty of room for just about any gear as the conversion omits the standard
kitchen and bathroom facilities, instead offering slide-out trays underneath the rear-mounted
bed.
In addition to the added headroom, the pop-up has a bed platform for extra guests if needed.
Number Nine
The Earthcruiser Escape is built on a Mercedes G Professional chassis having a V6 diesel
engine more than capable of tackling the Australian outback.
Sitting on 35-inch tires, this 4x4 has a modified suspension, winches on the front and rear,
and a light bar over the cab.
Also, on the outside are a kitchen and barbecue, plus two spare tires on the rear.
The inside features leather driver and passenger seats.
A crawl through from the cab allows smooth movement and extra storage.
The indoor toilet and shower are right inside the side entrance.
The Escape also contains an induction cooktop with a covered sink along with a full-size
double bed across the back, which converts to a dinette.
Number Eight
South African based Bush Lapa Offroad Caravans is showing off its newest model, the Mammoth.
This formidable expedition vehicle is built on an Iveco 4x4 chassis.
An inline 4-cylinder, turbo-diesel engine and permanent four-wheel drive make sure this
23-foot long behemoth can go almost anywhere you steer it.
The cab can comfortably seat up to 4 people with inside access to the camper area.
The no-nonsense interior features a full bathroom with a shower, and room to sleep four people
using the multiple beds.
A large storage and food prep area is located outside of the camper, having slide-out drawers
and a small sink.
The side entrance offers extra storage in the form of pouches mounted to the door.

Number Seven
An excellent looking upgrade to a VW T6 van is produced by "Rolling Homes," a UK based
camper van builder.
The vehicle, nicknamed Expedition, is covered in bright orange with black accents.
The cabin offers a pair of leather captain's chairs with a carbon fiber backing.
Behind this is a galley having a dual-burner cooktop, an integrated sink, and a 50-liter
fridge down below.
The dining table folds up and stores away on the inside of the sliding door.
The bench seating slides along floor tracks, allowing it to increase the rear storage space
as well as fold down into a full-size sleeper.
The pop-top also houses an additional full-size sleeper if needed.
Number Six
This 1993 Swiss Army vehicle has been repurposed with a high-top camper mounted behind the
cab.
The monotone exterior is wrapped in an extremely cool world map.
Keywords: extremely and cool.
Off-road driving is handled by the 4-cylinder, 116 horsepower engine and the all-terrain
tires on 16-inch wheels.
Behind the cab seats, is a bench running along the driver's sidewall.
Opposite this is a sink and a prep area with a fold-down table, while up above finds a
microwave and the control panel.
Storage comes in the form of a large wardrobe as well as cabinets running along the ceiling.
Sleeping accommodations are provided by the previously mentioned bench, which converts
to a double bed.
Number Five
Geared up for a trip to the coldest environments, the Tourig Arctic Fox is well suited for just
about anything Mother Nature has to offer.
Built on a Mercedes Sprinter chassis, it features Backwoods bumpers, Black Rhino Arsenal alloy
wheels, and B.F. Goodrich All-Terrain tires.
The sliding door opens to reveal the galley on the opposite wall, having a large basin
sink, a double induction cooktop, and a stainless-steel fridge down below.
Moving back finds an L-shaped couch spanning the width of the vehicle.
Behind and above, this is a three-panel removable bed.
Underneath the bed is a spacious garage area having cabinets on both sides.
Extra power comes from a 400-watt solar array on the roof coupled with a 200-amp hour battery
system.
Number Four
Built to take whatever the world throws at it, the Alpha Camper by All Terrain Warriors
has all the essentials of a home on wheels.
Based on a Mitsubishi Fuso chassis measuring just over 22 feet long, it sports a composite
fiberglass body with a pop-up roof.
Power comes from a Mercedes turbo diesel with a 4x4 drivetrain with the whole shebang riding
high on 19 1/2-inch tires.
The cab has customized control features and deluxe seating, with a pass-through for easy
access to the camper.
Behind the cab is a bench style dinette with a slide-away table.
The centrally located galley has a microwave up top while down below is a dual induction
cooktop, sink, and a 140-liter fridge/freezer.
Directly across from this is a wet bath next to the entrance.
Rounding out the mix is a queen-size bed in the rear that lifts to reveal storage bins
underneath.
Number Three
If you have a longing to roam anywhere and everywhere, you might want to look at the
just under 27 feet long, MD56c from German-based Unicat.
This powerful 6x6 motorhome is powered by a 540-horsepower diesel engine more than capable
of pushing around all 43,600 pounds.
Across from the entrance is a two-door refrigerator and microwave.
Forward of this is a bench style dinette with a telescoping table.
Moving back finds a galley beside the door having a dual induction cooktop, a basin sink,
and plenty of drawers for storage down below.
Opposite this is an enclosed shower and a separate washroom with a foot flush toilet
and vanity.
At the very rear is a raised queen bed running east to west with a wardrobe and overhead
cabinets.
The 1,850-watt solar array and 1,200 amp-hour battery provide plenty of extra power for
this beast to go off-grid for up to two weeks if needed.
Number Two
GXV of Springfield, Missouri, says their expedition vehicles are ready to go anywhere.
Their UXV-MAX vehicle can be configured from 24 1/2 to 28 1/2 feet long.
The vehicle's color-matched exterior has a heavy-duty aluminum front bumper with off-road
lights and an electric winch.
The rooftop features a 600-watt solar array and an electric side awning.
The cab offers access to the camper area, with the space above the cab housing a queen
or king-size bed.
Directly across from the entrance is a fully enclosed wet bath.
Moving forward finds a galley having a stainless-steel sink and a dual-induction cooktop while down
below is a dishwasher and a two-drawer fridge/freezer.
Opposite this is a bench style dinette with an adjustable table.
Number One
The US-based VanDoit company offers their LIV model based on the AWD Ford Transit Van.
This second entry in their line of adventure vans has a style more "heavy metal" industrial
with plenty of aluminum, sheet metal, and modular multi-purpose metal pods.
The LIV leans heavily toward the adventurer who uses a mountain bike or ATV and wants
to haul it with them in the back of the van.
The pods, such as the kitchen area, seating, and bed, are moveable to adjust the interior
for differing needs to have a more configurable, flexible interior.
The vehicle has a ready to use slide-out in the back, which serves as a gear tray or lower
bed.
Above the rear garage area is a hydraulic bed that folds up to create added space for
gear.
Modules can be added as needed, including a roof-mounted solar array and a portable
shower pod.
