2003 Ford E450 RedCross Emergency Response Vehicle (ERV)
7.3L PowerStroke Diesel – 51k original miles – title in hand
Price: $115k obo

Sadly, the time has come to sell this one-of-a-kind beast. The rig was originally built for the RedCross and was used to transport food/supplies to disaster areas. Unlike an ambulance, it never transported patients and has minimal idle hours. This is an incredibly rare platform as it has full-width rear doors and ~ 6’3 interior height. It’s basically a studio apartment with awesome off-road capability thanks to a U-Joint off-road 4×4 conversion and BFGoodrich KM3 tires. The interior was designed for maximal living space to accommodate people, dogs, apres-ski parties and rainy campouts. I am the 2nd owner and this rig has taken my family on some incredible trips throughout the PNW and the Rocky Mountains.

Dimensions
Length: 22.5ft
Height: 10.5ft
Width: 8.5ft (including side ladder)

Considerations:
• Some paint chipping on the front of the box near the passenger door. Plan was to properly prep area and extend diamond plating up to wind fairing or rhino line the right and left side
• Bluetooth back up camera experiences interference every so often
• EONON head unit was occasionally freezing on maps screen. Performed software update and haven’t had any issues
• Not an issue per se but when the 4×4 conversion required removal of the emergency brake. According to the guys at Ujoint, adding in a line lock is the best solution if you wanted an e-brake.

I am sure I am missing numerous details so please reach out with questions. Sad to see the rig go but it is time to pass it on to a new owner. Serious inquiries only.
