Storyteller Overland has introduced the GXV WILD, the latest addition to its Global Expedition Vehicles lineup. The new vehicle falls within the Super C Category and is built on a RAM 3500 single cab with the Big Horn Level 2 trim and a 6.4L HEMI V-8 producing over 375 horsepower and 429 pound-feet of torque on regular 87 octane.
The single-cab, gasoline configuration was a deliberate engineering decision, keeping things super approachable and freeing up significant cargo-carrying capacity for gear and supplies, company officials stated in a press release.
The vehicle features a 3-inch lift with an AEV suspension system and custom forged aluminum 20×9-inch Torque wheels paired with 275/80 R20 MPT tires with a high load rating. With a GVWR of 14,000 pounds, the GXV WILD has 11,000 pounds of towing capacity and 1,000 pounds of payload.
The GXV WILD Offers Refined Living on the Inside
Inside, the GXV WILD sleeps four adults across a loft queen bed and a converted rear dinette, with seating for four at the table. The Mission Control screen manages all onboard systems. The kitchen area is equipped with a stainless steel Vitrifigo 4.1 cubic foot refrigerator and freezer, a portable induction cooktop, and a combined microwave, convection oven and air fryer.
The wet bath includes a sink, shower, insulated walls, cassette toilet with freshwater flushing, dimmable lighting, exhaust fan and a dual pane window. A 13.5k BTU Truma rooftop air conditioner and a 14k BTU hydronic heating system ensure climate control at altitude and in cold temperatures.
A FlipOut Deck transforms the back of the GXV WILD into an open-air extension of the living space, noted the release. The rear deck easily deploys to create an elevated outdoor platform.
Putting Performance & Durability to the Test
“Every design decision on the WILD was made to create the most capable and approachable Adventure Truck possible. From the RAM single cab, HEMI V-8-powered chassis to the lightweight, highly insulated capsule to the way the FlipOut Deck deploys, every detail was centered around creating amazing experiences on and off road,” said Lee Conn, president and COO. “GXV’s 20-plus years of designing, engineering and building the most extreme Expedition Vehicles has always centered around performance and extreme durability, and, in many ways, the WILD is a culmination of all our experience. We’ve spent countless hours testing and refining the WILD because we want the Storyteller community to put our vehicles to the test, just like we do. That process is what separates a vehicle that looks capable from one that actually is. As always, I am blown away by the dedication of the team and their relentless execution on the WILD, and I look forward to seeing them out on the trails beginning in Q3.”
The Storyteller GXV WILD is available at a starting price of $299,898 through Storyteller’s nationwide dealer network.
