    Found a couple videos I liked, so I thought I would share...


    (I wonder what the guy in the small truck coming at him thought of seeing this rig...)

    This one is a fellow who was building it into a camper, and took it on white rim, but I never heard if it ever got finished. Still nifty none the less.

    That last video is Brent's truck I believe. He did finish it.

    Nice video though, good portrayal of the abilities and benefits of these vehicles!

    Surely they have enough shots of an EarthCruiser in the bush not to have to use "photo magic" to doctor one up.

    Maybe it is a new jacking system for changing tires, the invisible jack?

    I think the rear tires are just hiding behind the fronts, and what we are seeing are mud flaps or something similar.

    Looks like the front mud flaps or the flaps we put in front of the fuel tank and batteries. No jumping EC`s.

    New guy here - I am researching an EarthCruiser and have been going through these threads. Two weeks ago my wife and I saw this truck on the White Rim in Canyonlands National Park, being used as a support/ transport truck for a mountain bike group near the half way point (Murphy's Hogback campground). I'm sorry I don't have any pics. We were in a Series 80 and that truck looked pretty big for those trails, but I guess it fits!
