Here's WHY!
GVX's philosophy of quality and value is carried out by industry professionals comprised of designers, engineers, welders, fabricators, electricians, plumbers, cabinet makers, assemblers, and others who work behind the scenes.
 

Our Expedition Vehicles are custom-built and designed by our staff's extensive travel knowledge to help overlanders foresee requirements related to their travel adventures.
​  
​ Call us today to take advantage of the expertise that comes with a vehicle from GXV.
People often ask us how our Expedition Vehicles differ from a standard RV construction and other XV builders. Here are a few specs that detail some of the additional features that differentiate our Expedition Vehicle construction:

BODY CONSTRUCTION:  
​​Lighter, Stronger, More Versatile & Better Insulated than Molded Body Construction
​

GXV chooses to use  SCS (Structural Composite Sandwich) panels to build Expedition Bodies. This method allows for maximum diversity of cabin size choices and provides the option to adjust strength requirements through additional plys or wall thickness. The SCS panel also has superior insulating performance as compared to molded bodies. Typical panels are a solid core 3 ply panel that is ultra high strength, low weight, and self supporting.  
The interior structural core is highly insulating with outer plys made of a Fiberglass Reinforced Polyester. The plys are vacuum bonded with a 1,344 pound per square inch industrial adhesive. Total wall thickness typically is 2.36’’ (60mm) with no thermal conduction paths.   
SCS body panel systems will handle weather extremes where molded bodies fall short. SCS panels hold up to the mechanical stresses and dynamic forces, such as flexing, wind, & extreme hot or cold encountered in Overland Travel.

MOUNTING SYSTEM: Our Kinetic Mounting Systems allow for full-compliance articulation while isolating the stress from the frame rails into the body.

POWER: The Electrical System is the “heart” of the Expedition Vehicle. We have chosen to use Mastervolt, the leader in mobile electrical systems, and offer an upgrade to Lithium-ion Batteries in all of our models. Solar Panels provide power for our energy-efficient components, but when additional power is needed, i.e. sustained Air Conditioner use, our diesel generator will quickly top-off the battery bank.

TOTALLY SELF-CONTAINED FOR SAFETY AND COMFORTable living​

We build our vehicles to meet a number of travel criteria.  Here are a few at the top of our list:
  • Chassis capable enough to carry anything that you want to put on it
  • 60mm Body Panels​ providing superior insulation properties​ 
  • Add a garage for outdoor gear 
  • Enough water and electricity storage to throw away that umbilical cord
  • Large fuel storage for sustained camping
  • Unlimited customizable options
  • Locking differentials and gears to drive highway speeds or rock-crawl
  • Solar power harnessed in AGM or Lithium Batteries​
  • Off road capabilities with high clearance to go over rugged terrain and take you places a regular camper will not
  • Luxurious home-like comforts

actual self-sustaining ability

self-sustaining ability

GXV Benefits: Ready to escape the asphalt jungle? That's our specialty! No need to hook up to power; charge the electrical system through solar panels or the truck's alternator. When the blazing summer heat requires constant air conditioning and supplemental power is needed, use the diesel generator to top off Mastervolt lithium batteries. 

With our wide variety of models, we can provide an Expedition Vehicle sized for a single traveler that is so easy to drive, it may become your "daily driver;" or size for a family + pets that requires more spacious accommodations.
