Now that's a mobile home! Inside the $500,000 'expedition vehicles' with solar panels and 2,000-mile gas tank (shame it looks like a garbage truck)

  • RVs cost $500,000 and can go for 2,000 miles without stopping

Most people probably wouldn't want to live in a garbage truck, but then again most garbage trucks don't have the amenities this one does.

Unicat Amerigo - which bills its models as the 'ultimate family Expedition Vehicle' - are so huge that despite being built as exploration vehicles they're often mistaken for garbage trucks in photos. 

The vehicles are so rugged they were chosen by Jalopnik as one of the best places you could ride out a zombie apocalypse.

Tough: Unicat's expedition vehicles include full kitchens, living rooms, bathrooms, and beds

Second home: Rest anywhere in the vehicle's comfy interiors

Starting at more than $500,000 they may cost more than your average home but then again few homes can drive from coast to coast.

For that you get, depending on the model, a 2,000-mile range and enough supplies to keep people alive for months if need be.

The vehicles feature beds, a shower, desk space, a kitchen, and a 110-gallon freshwater tank.

Don't go hungry: While you're locked in the UNICAT during the apocalypse at least you'll have cold drinks

There's also a watermaker that can decontaminate water to make it drinkable if you get stuck in a truly bad situation.

And if it is the end of the world, be glad to know there's room for a first-aide kit, solar panels, and a motorbike rack in case you need to make a clean getaway.

Table for two: Set the table for a romantic meal in your impenetrable fortress on wheels

Go anywhere: Some of the UNICATS carry enough gas to cover 2,000 miles without filling up

Comforts of home: Like any respectable exploration vehicle the UNICAT models have their own bathrooms and are capable of carrying more than 100 gallons of freshwater if you can't find another source

Built to last: UNICATs are favored by survivalists for their ability to travel across and terrain

Plush: If you end up using the 2,000 mile reserve of gas at least you'll be comfortable in the leather seats
