You could literally cruise the earth in your EarthCruiser FX. It’s a go-anywhere diesel-powered overland rig that’s based on a medium-duty truck chassis and fits in a shipping container. And, it is up for auction right now on “Bring a Trailer.”
It’s going to have to be a big trailer, too. Because the EarthCruiser FX is a whole lot bigger than any pickup or SUV-based overland rig. This one starts with a Mitsubishi Fuso Canter FG chassis, the kind of beefy truck you’d normally spot delivering produce or hauling furniture around town.

The auction listing says it’s a 2017 version of the Canter chassis — a bonus because that’s the last year the model came with a diesel engine. It’s a 3.0L inline-four diesel from Fuso that makes just 161 horsepower but backs it up with 295 pound-feet of torque. Even better, that peak torque hits from an absolutely crawling 1,300 rpm.
The chassis switched over to a 6.0L gas V8 sourced from GM the following year.
A 2017 model also means it’s a 4×4. Mitsubishi Fuso dropped that option in 2019. The chassis comes with big, beefy solid axles designed to spend all day hauling cargo in stop-and-go traffic.
The chassis has a six-speed automatic transmission and a low-range transfer case. It even has manually locking front hubs so you can feel extra cool when it’s time to get dirty and leave the pavement.
