The Elevation Off Grid (EOG) Rig took first place at the just completed 2024 Overland Expo Mountain West in Loveland, Colorado. The “top rig” award was given by Truck Camper Adventure, a web magazine for off-road, off-grid truck camper enthusiasts. Functionality and good looks were the prime factors considered in choosing the winner.
As a truck camper rig, the EOG Rig has it all. It all starts with EOG Ford F-550 Black Edition with 41-inch super singles and a LiquidSpring Suspension, outfitted with a Bowen Customs truck bed with loads of storage. Topping it all off is a luxurious Host Mammoth 11.6 triple-slide truck camper—the largest slide-in truck camper in today’s market—equipped with an “off-grid extreme” package consisting of a 1,200 amp hour off-grid battery system, 800 watts of solar, and a 3,000 watt inverter. Both the truck and the custom truck bed are painted a matching “Nardo Grey,” a custom color not offered by Ford.
Elevation Off-Grid (EOG) builds the best, most capable pickup truck on the planet. As a matter of fact, EOG is the only Ford F-550 and Ram 5500 pickup manufacturer in the world. EOG’s Class 5 trucks not only offer a GVWR of 19,500 pounds with a nearly 10,000 pound payload, but also a silky-smooth ride comparable to the Ford F-150 and the Ram Power Wagon using the highly-regarded LiquidSpring Suspension. EOG normally builds an 8-foot OEM-style truck bed for it’s Class 5 trucks, but in this case the customer wanted a Bowen Customs bed for extra storage.
