Here ya go: EarthRoamer XV

I'll take an (click →) EarthRoamer XV!
The "plain 'ol" XV-LT would be more than adequate for my needs, but …

Just for jollies, scroll down, check out that badass Ford F-650 Based EarthRoamer XV-HD, coming in 2015.

Might have to break the ol' piggy bank though: "Pricing for the XV-HD model is anticipated to start at around $750,000 and go up from there depending on vehicle length, options chosen and customization."

Peruse the whole site, check the various base vehicles & XV models, floor plans, equipment, options, prices … just don't drool on your monitor!

Quoting (loosely):
"The EarthRoamer XV is an 'Xpedition Vehicle', not an 'RV'. It is an all weather, all season vehicle that was designed from the ground-up to be capable of extended travel over all types of terrain while providing a luxurious camping experience – all without the need for water, sewer or electrical hookups. It was designed, engineered and constructed to address the many shortcomings of traditional RVs. [Its] one piece molded composite body, three point camper mounting system, massive solar panel array, incredible off-road capability also eliminates of the need for volatile propane or a noisy generator."

For really extreme off-road travel with your XV-LT, you may want the Continental 41” MPT-81 Tires on Military Beadlock Rims, for a mere $9,944 (Air Ride Suspension required).
Air Ride Suspension is just $17,562 (Air Compressor System required).
And the Air Compressor System will add another $4,839.
