The 4Runner might be one of Toyota’s best-looking 4WD vehicles to date, and this particular example takes things to the next level. Showcasing $30,000 of aftermarket parts and finished in a striking dark blue, this fifth-generation offering certainly stands out from the crowd. The 4Runner’s all-terrain performance is irrefutable, but that’s not the primary reason…
Overland Classifieds :: Isuzu Expedition Rig
We’ve recently had a number of Mitsubishi Fusos listed on the forum, and at first glance, you might be fooled into thinking this is another. However, despite the remarkable similarity, this is, in fact, an Isuzu NPR Crew Cab. Now, I have to admit, I don’t know a huge amount about the Isuzu brand (despite…
Overland Classifieds :: Tacoma Ultimate “Australian” Overland Rig
If I’ve learnt one thing over the past six years of living in a vehicle, it’s that often less is more. Sure, there are days where I long for more space, a shower/toilet, fixed bed, more power, larger water capacity, Brad Pitt’s Fight Club physique, and that my bank balance would one day hit triple…
Overland Classifieds :: Ford E-350 4×4 Powerstroke “High-top Unicorn”
I love sharing a diverse range of vehicles with our classifieds: some are cheap and cheerful, others are luxurious and expensive. And a very select few I want for myself—this stunning E-350 is one of them. Sure, the 7.3-liter Powerstroke isn’t the most economical, but it’s widely regarded as one of the most reliable diesel…
Icon Releases New Compression Damping Electronic Valve Suspension System
I recently decided to upgrade the stock suspension on my 1986 Vanagon Syncro. Unsure of the best system, I set about asking various forums, Volkswagen mechanics, and fellow owners. Unsurprisingly I was met with numerous suggestions, all claiming to be the best solution. The “best” suspension is completely subjective and depends on vehicle weight, modifications,…
Engwe Engine Pro 750W High Performance Electric Bike
As a committed cyclist, I struggled to understand the appeal of electric bikes, but as the years have passed, I’ve grown to appreciate them. Furthermore, they’ve become an increasingly popular accessory for overlanders, who store or rack them as a convenient secondary mode of transport when parked at camp. This is particularly useful for larger…
Overland Classifieds :: 1997 Toyota FZJ80 Land Cruiser – Triple-Locked Collector Edition in Desert Dune
You really can’t go wrong with a Land Cruiser, and this 1997 triple-locked collector’s edition is a lovely example. I read somewhere that the Land Cruiser sets the benchmark by which all other 4WD vehicles are judged, and there’s no denying the Cruiser’s revered reputation for everyday bomb-proof reliability. Whether it’s destined for the school…
Overland Classifieds :: 1997 Stewart and Stevenson Class A RV
Are you in constant fear of the apocalypse and the subsequent collapse of civilization? Fear not, because for $468,000, you can spectate the zombie hordes from your rolling armoured villa whilst dunking a biscotti in your cappuccino and listening to the silky-smooth jazz of Coltrane. Sure, the living dead just ate your neighbour, but thanks…
Overland Classifieds :: 2001 Mitsubishi Fuso FG 4×4 Camper
The Mitsubishi Fuso 4×4 has become a popular choice for overlanders, and for good reason. They offer generous load capacity and living space and are less cumbersome and costly compared to larger 7.5-tonne vehicles. It’s a platform that benefits from Japanese reliability, an impressive 4WD system, and access to parts worldwide. Prices for Fuso builds…
Overland Classifieds :: EARTHCRUISER #64 “Better Than New”
There’s no right or wrong way to travel, and what works for one person might not suit you. Some folks enjoy occasional weekend adventures, others allot weeks or months each year for extended trips, and a minority travel full-time. Similarly, some people want to pack light and embrace a more simplistic way of life, whilst…
Walter Sky WS-MH01 Nuyarn Merino Zip Hoodie
Living full-time in a modestly sized van means space is at a premium, and packing light is essential. Consequently, there’s really no place for clothing that’s not multi-functional, so I rarely purchase apparel that’s not suitable for both everyday life and outdoor activities. Technical products tend to be lighter, more packable, compressible, quick-drying, warmer/cooler, and…
Jeep Performance Parts Introduces New Half Doors for the Gladiator
In March of this year, Jeep Performance Parts (JPP) unveiled new half doors for the Wrangler. The wait is now over for Gladiator owners, who can also benefit from this exciting modification. Offered by Mopar for the Jeep brand and established in 2012, JPP manufactures high-end, hard-core quality aftermarket accessories and performance parts for the…
Overland Classifieds :: 1992 Range Rover Classic SWB
There aren’t many vehicles quite as timeless and iconic as the Range Rover Classic, and this 1992 SWB variant is a lovely example. I fell in love with the Classic’s styling, V8 burble, and impressive all-terrain performance when it featured on the Top Gear’s “Bolivia Special.” I’ve had a soft spot for it ever since….
Overland Classifieds :: 2019 Mercedes Sprinter 4×4 Winnebago Revel
It’s exciting perusing exotic overland vehicles for sale, and for many of us, including myself, there’s an undeniable attraction to the weird and wonderful. However, whilst unusual vehicles may have a certain je ne sais quoi, they’re not always the sensible choice. Truthfully, it’s the vehicles you see every day, depended on by tradesmen, rental…
Overland Classifieds :: 1994 HZJ75 Land Cruiser + Alu-Cab Hercules
This listing is as much about the vehicle for sale as the team that made it. If you’re unfamiliar with The Fit Garage, then it’s best described as The Fast and the Furious meets Mad Max. It’s a garage where they’ve seemingly struck the perfect balance between creating exquisite, bespoke, one-off vehicles while simultaneously sodding…
New Land Rover Defender V8 Bond Edition Inspired by “No Time to Die”
Inspired by the Defenders which appear in the upcoming Bond movie No Time to Die, Land Rover announced a limited run of 300 Bond Edition Defenders based on the recently launched V8 Edition. In the US, the Bond Edition will be available exclusively in the 110 body style and showcases the Extended Black Pack with…
BFGoodrich Tires launches Trail-Terrain T/A Tire
I love the versatility, durability, and all-round functionality of BFGoodrich All-terrains, and over the past four years, I’ve put almost 100,000 miles on them (two sets). However, they’re not without drawbacks, and I’ve often wondered why manufacturers don’t produce more tires that strike a middle-ground between road and all-terrain performance. A tire that’s quiet and…
Utah’s Unique Land Cruiser Heritage Museum Inspires Adventure from its New Location
The Land Cruiser Heritage Museum offers a unique opportunity to experience one of the most iconic and longest-standing sport utility vehicles in the Toyota lineup. Its mission is to “celebrate the history of the Land Cruiser while preserving its legacy and inspiring adventure.” The museum planted its roots in a specially designed building at the…
Legacy Overland :: 1961 Land Rover Series IIA 88
One of my close friends owns a Series II Land Rover, and I’m not sure I’ve witnessed anyone simultaneously love and hate something so passionately. The breakdowns are endless, the ride agricultural, safety non-existent, fuel economy abysmal, and brakes—well, who needs them!? Nevertheless, the Series II was the workhorse of its time, easy to fix,…
KUIU Ultra Merino 145 ZIP-T Hoodie
Founded by Jason Hairston, KUIU is primarily a hunting brand designed to be “the lightest and highest performing Mountain Hunting clothing possible.” However, the apparel line has cross-category appeal and, whilst I don’t hunt, is well-suited to most outdoor activities. Hence, I was keen to see how their 145 ZIP-T hoodie would perform on a…
