Featured Vehicle: ARB 2016 Toyota Tacoma
The Toyota Tacoma has always been a popular truck. I had one and I’m about as far from a truck guy as it gets. Many things help make it such a solid choice, the reliability and capability being the primary drivers. For those with an inclination to modify their rigs, the Tacoma also enjoys more…

Field Tested: iKamper SkyCamp 4-Person Rooftop Tent
It wasn’t all that long ago my young family of four fit in a roof top tent. We played games and read bedtime stories, blissfully falling asleep with everyone safe and snug. And then our two toddlers grew. I still remember the first time I got kicked out of our roof top tent, but can’t…
Overland Expo West 2017: It Begins Again
Now in its ninth year, the 2017 Overland Expo commenced again, this time in a new location in the tall pines outside of Flagstaff, Arizona.

La Aduana: 1987 Range Rover Classic
It’s no secret that we hold a candle for the classic Range Rover. In fact, you might even say we’re a bit obsessed, but can you blame us? From the classic boxy lines with edges ever so slightly curved, the impressive vantage point provided by tall, unobstructed windows, and a pedigree that remains unrivaled in…

Overland Commute: UK to Mali
I’ve always regarded blogs as harbouring the sort of self-indulgent small talk which bores us all; inane, desultory, mini-updates neither telling a story nor addressing a point. An incoherent musing of one’s day-to-day life written by those who seem to have overlooked the stories that readers might actually want to hear. So, it came as…
Toyota’s Adventure Mobile for the Future, the FT-4X Concept
Automakers have to overcome a host of challenges to stay relevant in an ever changing marketplace. One of the smaller hurdles is navigating the crowd of eye-rollers like me every time a far fetched concept car is presented to the public. This is not to say I don’t fully appreciate and understand the purpose of a…

It’s that time of year again. Jeep and Mopar have convened on the red rock escarpments of Moab to tease Jeep enthusiasts with futuristic looks at the direction of the brand. Our own Chris Collard was the designated photographer and did a bang-up job capturing the spirit of Jeep.
A2A Expedition: To Drag or Drop a Trailer, that is the Question.
