SOLD: 2004 Fleetwood Revolution 38B (+Jeep)

Tommi -

SOLD Thank you for your interest!

Is it your dream to full-time RV off-grid? If so, read on. This higher-end diesel motorhome is built up for off-grid travel with an enormous lithium battery/solar setup. It has large holding tanks and has enabled us to boondock in remote locations, all with the comforts of a “normal” home.

Big solar panels, laid out so that the roof remains easily walkable

Only two owners. First owner stored it in a garage and babied it, we converted it into the dream boondocking machine. Perfect for full-time travelers, which is why we're selling it — we're switching to part-timing in a smaller rig.

We have all the receipts and manuals, including a collection of PDFs found online that didn't even come with the rig. Whether you're just getting started RVing or are looking to upgrade, this is a great rig for boondocking. Selling as-is but we'll happily answer any questions that come up afterward.

Price: $75,000

Fun fact: This rig has its own Giphy Sticker which can be used on your IG Stories!

Electrical

Huge lithium batteries and solar power! Live like you did in sticks & bricks while boondocking. Use the microwave as usual and watch a movie every night without running the generator. All professionally installed in 2017. Front AC runs on battery power for hours! In less demanding use, the batteries will last for days even with dark skies, letting you sit through multi-day thunderstorms without needing the generator.

And if you're moochdocking (staying at a friend's house), the hybrid inverter can sip as little as 5 amps over a long extension cord, using battery power to boost that to whatever is needed, and then again charging batteries when less power is needed.
