The Bimobil Adventure Ride Eats Winnebagos for Breakfast

You eat Winnebagos for breakfast?'

One of the main appeals of getting off the grid is to live without limitations, right?

This fresh take on an “RV” — term used loosely — should definitely help address that.

The amped-up Bimobil EX 435 adventure ride is an all-terrain brute of an RV. The Germany-based company surely injected steroids into a Mercedes Unimog to create this AWD mountain crusher.

She’s packing a 231 horsepower engine and 664 lb-ft of torque. But like most tough guys, the Bimobil is a real softie on the inside, where you’ll find a water-resistant living space complete with kitchen, bathroom, dining area and loads of storage space, outlets and tanks for fresh and not-so-fresh water.

And for a paltry $300,000, the beast is ready to help you heed the call of the wild.
