This is not your everyday Host Cascade. I've spent $20,000 in upgrades to create a rugged, boondockable, self-sustaining, go-anywhere RV.This Cascade comes with an off-grid power system containing 4 175-watt solar panels, 4 100 amp-hour LiPo batteries and a 3000-watt inverter/charger. A high-efficiency central AC that replaces the noisy, inefficient rooftop unit. The Onan generator, a definite gas guzzler, is replaced with a high-efficiency, quieter Honda 2200i generator. A 175-amp quick disconnect cable between the LiPo batteries and the truck's batteries is installed using a Lithium Battery Isolation Manager. This device uses the high output power of the truck's alternator to charge the LiPo batteries as you drive. A “cool” trick while heading to a destination is to turn on the AC ahead of time. You're now using your truck to charge your LiPo batteries and pre-cool your RV before you get to your destination.The two flat-screen monitors have been upgraded with 4K LED Smart technology and an electric fireplace, a new leather recliner has also been added. The fender skirts have been upgraded with aluminum diamond plate.A piece of equipment that Host is famous for is the huge sliding tray in the storage compartment. You can fit a lot of gear but when you’re four-wheeling to your destination it tends to move around. Next thing you know you have a broken water live or jammed drawer. Two aircraft-grade L-track rails, fittings, and ratchet straps along the full length of the drawer have been installed.Mounted on the rear are a set of Recovery Traction Boards, 2 Roto-Pax fuel cans, and a high-intensity LED light bar.I prefer to sell my 2016 Ram 3500 Longhorn Laramie with the camper (for an additional $45k, 131,000 miles). This Ram has the highest level of options I could find. Like the camper, I made many mods to ensure the truck was up to the task:- Hauler 19.5x6.75 aluminum rims w/ Toyo 110 psi M/S tires w/pressure monitors.- Rear 1.3” diameter Helwig sway bar- Firestone Ride-Rite airbags w/built-in compressor.- Bilstein gas shocks front and rear- Heavy-duty front and rear diamond plate bumpers- Warn 6-ton winch w/ synthetic rope, wireless control & 2” receiver for front and rear operation.- Tow strap/recovery gear- AEV Snorkel System (I've never submerged this truck, it’s a “just in case”)- Front LED High-Intensity light bar- Ranch Jack- ¾” rubber bed matThis RV/truck combo isn't an EarthRoamer but it's darn close.
