When budget isn’t a constraint and adventure calls, look no further than a Krug. This beast on wheels, the Krug Expedition Bedrock XT2, is built on a Ford F-550 platform, perfectly tuned for any challenge. Equipped with solar power and a massive 66-gallon diesel tank, it's the ultimate getaway machine.
Originating from Krug Expedition Vehicles in Austria, the Bedrock XT2 is a revelation for serious adventurers ready to spend. This impressive 18,500-pound vehicle is crafted for unrivaled off-road prowess, carrying a price tag of $740,000 for the model tested.
Imagine arriving at any campground with six Arctic Trucks enhanced wheels that make lesser vehicles quiver. The proprietary 6x4 drivetrain offers colossal off-roading capability, boasting a robust suspension and disc brakes for optimal control.
- Wheelbase: 176 inches featuring a rugged 6x4 drivetrain (6x6 option available)
- Tires: Continental 365/80R20 with adjustable suspension
- Differentials: Front and rear limited-slip for tricky terrains
- Powertrain: Ford's 6.7-liter Power Stroke diesel engine with 475 hp and 1,050 lb-ft torque
The camper unit, shipped from Austria, doubles as a high-tech living space. With insulated reinforced sandwich panels, a steel exoskeleton, and a modern interior, it pairs style with function. Though not overly spacious, the cabinetry maximizes utility with secure locking systems.
- Sleeping Quarters: King-size bed, convertible dining area bed
- Kitchen: Fully electric with solar panel power
- Climate Control: Truma Combi heater and Nomadic Cooling X3 AC
- Water Supply: 118-gallon fresh tank with filtration system
Driving the XT2 might feel unwieldy at first due to its size. However, its capability to navigate tough terrains makes it a worthy investment for the adventurous at heart. Just be prepared to get accustomed to its unique driving dynamics.
Starting at $690,000, a year-long waiting period means planning ahead is essential. A traditional camper will cost less, but nothing matches the statement a Krug XT2 makes.
In summary, if you're ready to invest in an incredible expedition experience, the Krug XT2 doesn’t just conquer roads; it conquers status.
