It could be a life or death option.
    It seems the OP is more interested in a practical setup for potential wildfires and what not, i.e. needs to haul out as much property in one shot as possible.

    Still, the Earth Roamer is the vehicle to do it all. They're in Longmont off the frontage road for anyone interested in their product.

    Real nice rigs. They run about $550,000. They use brand new Ford chassis and that looses reliability in my opinion.

    Exactly. I know all about Earth roamer, and have been to their facility, I dream of owning one, but at the price point, I hardly think it's what the OP has in mind, tho I could be wrong.
