Just imagine taking a rough and rugged military vehicle, and turning it into a luxurious home on wheels. That's what Hunter RMV does. Based in Minden, Nevada, they repurpose military trucks like the Acela Monterra GL 4x4, which was developed to handle horrible types of even terrain, and turn them into high-end overlanding RVs. In this process they maintain the unyielding build of the vehicle, but refresh its appearance to something fit for human habitation while still wild. The best of both worlds: rugged and luxurious, and capable of tackling anything that nature can throw at you.
Power and performance under the hood
These expedition vehicles have a Caterpillar 7.2-liter turbo-diesel engine that generates 330 horsepower and 860 lb-ft of torque. Coupled with an Allison seven-speed automatic transmission, these RVs have power and reliability. While these vehicles are not small by any means, they can cruise at highway speeds comfortably. This is a result of both tuned-gearing and efficient design. City streets or unpaved trails, and performance is never compromised.
Living Off Grid Easy
Hunter RMV builds RVs designed for long-term off grid living. Having a 1,200-watt rooftop solar array, 800-Ah lithium battery bank, and a 3,000-watt inverter means you can power all your necessities without ever needing to plug into utility services. With over 100 gallons of freshwater and a 35-gallon grey water tank, you'll be able to enjoy staying out in the field for extended periods. The RV's Truma diesel heat and hot water system allows for rural living comforts regardless of weather and geography.
Interior Comfort and Amenities
Plus, walk into the RV, and you may begin to feel you are in a luxury apartment rather than an RV. The RV has a standard queen size bed, a fully-functioning kitchen, including an induction cook, microwave, and refrigerator; bathroom with composting toilet and seperate shower; a seating area that includes wood cabinetry, leather seats, and storage. It has the comforts of home and is designed to allow you to enjoy familiarity, but also minimizes the work necessary for life on the road while not sacrificing on design!
Personalization to Your Liking
One of the most exciting parts of Hunter RMV's offerings is the level of personal customization. You can customize your RV from the layout to materials, and many other options including Starlink satellite internet, external grills, and bike storage, and each RV may reflect what the owner wants. Whether you are an avid hunter that needs a secure gun cabinet or a digital nomad looking for reliable internet, Hunter RMV can accommodate your needs.

Build for the Long Run
Durability is one of Hunter RMV's design principles. The RVs composite walls have an estimated R -value of 18 offering insulation, the four-point articulating subframe provides stability on uneven surfaces, and air suspension systems provide a comfortable ride. At every point, every part is selected for quality to create an investment that is intended to last.
Pricing & Availability
Due to the customized nature of these vehicles, pricing varies based on the customization fare. Pricing starts around $200,000 for the Sherpa X, up to about $800,000 for the Sherpa XLE. Each build takes around 2,000 to 3,000 hours, which means based on that there is a timeline for about one to two years from when you send your first inquiry until your vehicle arrives at your door. Hunter RMV can typically building three or four rigs a year, so each build is custom and built with that in mind for high quality rather than high quantity.
