Enthusiast III
2018 Palomino Backpack SS‑550 — Fully Modernized, Lithium‑Powered Overland Micro‑Rig — $22,500
This SS‑550 has been rebuilt from the inside out with a complete electrical overhaul, modern interior upgrades, and functional improvements throughout. It’s lightweight, fits most 6.5 foot full‑size trucks, and is engineered for real off‑grid use — not just weekend hookups.
Electrical System (All Premium Components)
Interior Rebuild
This is not a stock SS‑550. It’s a purpose‑built, modernized micro‑rig with a power system comparable to high‑end van conversions. Ideal for overlanders, hunters, and travelers who want capability without the weight or complexity of a full RV.
Located in Mobile, AL. Clean title. Happy to provide detailed photos, wiring overview, and system demonstration.
