SPECIAL TRUCKS * USA: Adventure vehicles gets EU certification

* Oregon - Bend-made EarthCruiser meet European standards

-- Lance Gillies vehicle, called the EarthCruiser, is a new addition to the camper market. But it’s far from a typical RV...   Founded in Queensland, Australia, powered by a combination of diesel fuel and solar energy, it’s able to run up to 10 days without a battery charge... A European Union certificate of conformity for EarthCruiser, which shows the vehicles meet EU standards, opened the door, he said... EarthCruisers already ply the roads, back roads and open terrain in 70 countries, Gillies said. With certification in Europe, he expects sales to continue growing... The EarthCruiser is built on a Mitsubishi Fuso truck chassis, a Japanese manufacturer with majority ownership held by Daimler AG, the German truck-maker... The price of a base model vehicle is about $170,000, he said. The EarthCruiser, however, can be customized to suit many purposes... Equipped with solar panels, diesel water heater, water-purification unit and other features, the vehicles can operate for up to 10 days without additional power...
