The Jeep Gladiator Rubicon is a very desirable platform for overland builds with recent examples including a 2021 Rubicon and a 2020 with AT Overland Summit camper. In short, the Gladiator is an extended version of the Wrangler with a pickup bed and several key differences. Inevitably the Gladiator’s extended wheelbase offers both positive and…

We’ve featured several adventure-ready E-350s recently including this 2000 7.3-liter Sportsmobile UJOR 4×4 w/ CCV Top, a 1997 Econoline 4×4, and a 2010 MG 4×4. These vans are sought after for their generous interior living space vis-à-vis their modest exterior dimensions, long-lived engines and drivetrains, availability of OEM and aftermarket parts and accessories, and 4WD…
Overland Classifieds :: 2006 Land Rover Discovery LR3
The cost of used 4WDs suitable for overlanding can be prohibitive, with many examples priced between $50,000 and $100,000. However, there are still some outliers that tick all the boxes for remote vehicle travel yet are available for under $20,000. A few recent examples would be this $15,500 1998 Mitsubishi Montero, a $13,000 1999 Toyota…
ROK GC Espresso Maker
Minimalism, weight saving, and packing just the essentials are common themes throughout my articles, and crucial when planning an overland trip. Do you need that extra pair of shoes? No. You’re seriously packing three cups? Why haven’t you cut your toothbrush in half? Those extra ounces make a difference! Now, if you’ll excuse me, I’m…
Overland Classifieds :: 1996 Toyota Hiace Super Custom Limited 4WD
It’s no secret that I’m a big fan of the Toyota Hiace 4WD, which I believe is one of the best bang-for-your-buck vans for overlanding. If you’re not convinced, I recommend checking out this stunning 1994 Toyota Hiace 4×4 overland camper, which travelled from the Netherlands, through Asia, all the way to Japan! If you’d…

Overland Classifieds :: 2019 EarthCruiser FX #61
If you’re in the market for a luxurious overland vehicle there’s no shortage of options with high-end offerings from EarthRoamer, SLRV Expedition Vehicles, Global Expedition Vehicles, EarthCruiser, and more. However, with starting prices in excess of half a million dollars, I can’t help feeling that many of the companies prioritize luxury rather than rugged capability…
Overland Classifieds :: 2019 Global Expedition Vehicles Patagonia
I’ve featured way too many sensible rigs recently, so it’s about time that I post another rolling mansion. I never get over the price of these 4WD giants, especially as I’m not entirely sure how suitable they are for round-the-world exploration. However, there’s no denying these builds are very impressive and better equipped than most…
Overland Classifieds :: 1987 Jeep Comanche Pop-Top Camper
My favorite overland rigs are those that provide maximum comfort in the smallest possible footprint. Recent examples of this winning combo include this 1993 Mercedes Puch 230GE High Roof Camper, a Toyota Troopcarrier, and a Toyota Land Cruiser HZJ78. These rigs are easy to drive, capable, relatively economical, and will fit in a shipping container….

Overland Classifieds :: 1984 Land Rover Defender 90
The Land Rover Defender, alongside the Toyota Land Cruiser, is widely regarded as the quintessential overlander. This 4WD icon has arguably done more than any other vehicle to promote overland travel and remains one of the best options for round-the-world exploration. It’s a desirable platform and priced accordingly with recent examples including this $43,000 1993…
Overland Classifieds :: 2013 AEV Brute
The AEV Brute is a rarity and does not come up often on our forum with just a few for sale over the last few years, including a 2015 Double Cab w/ Overland-Ready Bed Rack and Warn’s AEV Hemi Brute. AEV, or American Expedition Vehicles, is a “supplier of OE-quality, performance-driven aftermarket parts, and accessories…
Overland Classifieds :: 2010 Ford E-350 Ujoint 4×4

So why is the E-350 such a desirable option? Well, first and foremost there are very few truly capable 4WD vans out there….
Overland Classifieds :: 1993 Mercedes Puch 230GE High Roof Camper
The classic G-Wagen, like the Land Rover Defender and Toyota Land Cruiser, is widely considered an overlanding icon. It is one of the 4WDs by which all others are measured and remains one of the best options for round-the-world travel. Even though they aren’t as numerous as Defenders and Land Cruisers, it’s no surprise that…
Destination :: Neist Point Lighthouse, Isle of Skye, Scotland
As an avid traveler, I’m fortunate to visit many beautiful locations, but with a world to see it takes a decidedly special destination to bring me back more than once. I have visited Neist Point Lighthouse at least five times and it never disappoints. Neist Point is located on the most westerly tip of Skye…

Overland Classifieds :: 2020 Ford F-350 XLT Power Stroke Diesel
Full-size trucks have never been so popular, with more overlanders embracing the additional running costs in exchange for more comfort, payload, performance, towing capacity, and often capability. Scott Brady and Matt Scott recently explored this topic at length on the Overland Journal Podcast, Why Full-Size Trucks Should be Seriously Considered for Overlanding. Among full-size rigs,…
Overland Classifieds :: 2015 Ford F-150 XLT – SOLD
Ford has arguably been at the forefront of the Full-Size Revolution, as it demonstrated that you could have all the benefits of a larger truck without the drawbacks. In the past, these larger vehicles returned abysmal fuel economy and cost a fortune to run, but thanks to new technology (like Ford’s EcoBoost engines), this is…
Overland Classifieds :: 1997 Toyota Land Cruiser HZJ77
Classic Land Cruisers with super low miles don’t come up for sale often, especially in this condition. Today’s exceptionally clean 1997 example has covered just 83,000 miles from new and originally belonged to the Japanese government (so you can rest assured it’s been well looked after). The Land Cruiser is arguably the greatest overland platform…
