EarthRoamer XV-JP becomes reality.
EarthRoamer’s latest expedition vehicle, the XV-JP, has just become a reality. Based off concept drawings first shown off back in January 2007, and built off the new 4-door 2007 Jeep JK Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon, the XV-JP features an integrated camper “shell” with a roof-mounted tent with sleeping space for 2 adults and all the amenities and necessities for extended-length overland travel. Check out a photo of the roof tent deployed and some preliminary specs after the break.
Highlights:
• Electric motor-powered Loftop™ opens to provide nine feet of interior stand-up height, a kevlar rope-supported, cantilevered queen size bed, and a combination tent/screen room under the rear of the Loftop™.
• Interchangeable “skins” for the Loftop™ let you customize your rig for different weather conditions and are available in all-season, extreme cold weather, and high temperature radiant barrier designs.
• Composite sandwich construction body provides a high strength-to-weight ratio.
• 6100 btu forced air furnace, electric fan ventilation and large windows with built in screens and sunshades keep you comfortable year round.
• Engine-heated 4 gallon hot water tank and a 25 gallon fresh water supply provide plenty of hot and cold water to the indoor galley and shower. Inside cassette toilet with 4.5 gallon externally accessible cassette provides
an elegant solution to waste management – no more dragging a porta-potti through your camper!
• Ultra efficient 4 cubic foot chest refrigerator/freezer utilizes cold plate technology to keep your food and beverages cold.
• 80 watt solar panel and 210 amp-hour AGM battery bank provides power to spare.
• In-dash GPS navigation/AV system with upgraded amplifier and speakers keeps you informed and entertained.
• HID off road lights, 8 cfm air compressor, 9000 pound winch, winch bumper and upgraded suspension equips you for any adventure

[...] EarthRoamer recently posted a new photo gallery showcasing the interior of their oh-so-cool JK Wrangler Rubicon Unlimited-based XV-JP expedition vehicle. The gallery features 22 photos (the first of which is above) detailing the interior layout and design of the XV-JP. Two things I found interesting were the miniature Warn winch that is used for closing and deploying the canopy and that the space over the cab of the Jeep is actually quite spacious and appears to hold a fair amount of gear.
