We’ve featured several well-equipped Ram 2500s recently including this $175,000 2022 Big Horn with Four Wheel Campers Hawk, a $105,000 2020 Laramie Off-Road Edition with Four Wheel Campers Raven, and a $129,000 2022 Ram 2500 with CampX Overland Camper. These rigs are awesome, but at over $100,000 they’re cost-prohibitive for many of us. Alternatively, today’s…

Overland Classifieds :: 1992 Toyota Hiace 4×4 Diesel High Top
I’ve often championed the Toyota Hiace 4×4 for overlanding, but it hasn’t traditionally been a big hit with US travelers. However, this seems to be changing with an increasing number of these vans being imported and sold at premium prices. I’ve featured several adventure-ready examples recently, including this 1996 Super Custom Limited 4WD, 1994 4WD…

Overland Classifieds :: 2013 Ram 3500 Cummins
Full-size trucks are all the rage as overlanders accept the additional running costs for a plethora of benefits. The key advantages of these larger trucks include significantly bigger payload and towing capacity, better-equipped and more comfortable interiors, and higher-output engines. Ram produces a wide range of desirable full-size trucks with their 1500 model being the…
Overland Classifieds :: 2003 Mitsubishi Fuso FG 4×4
During the pandemic, the price of used overland rigs skyrocketed as people switched from international travel to adventures closer to home. It’s safe to say that things got a little out of hand with vehicles often selling for significantly more than market value. Thankfully, the situation has relaxed a little since borders started opening up…
Destinations :: Bunes Beach, Lofoten, Norway
Bunes Beach, or Bunesstranda, is located on the northern side of Moskenes (part of the Lofotodden National Park) and is widely regarded as one of the most beautiful beaches in Lofoten. They say that adventure is as much about the journey as the destination, which is certainly true of Bunes. A ferry that leaves from…
Overland Classifieds :: 2003 Jeep Wrangler TJ
There is a wide array of 4WDs on the market but not all that many are designed specifically for backcountry travel. Instead, some (looking at you, Defender and G-Wagon) have transitioned away from their rugged heritage and now cater to the luxury market. The Jeep Wrangler is an exception to this rule and has changed…
Overland Classifieds :: 2018 Toyota Tacoma TRD Off-Road
The Tacoma is a popular choice on our forum with recent adventure-ready examples including this 2019 TRD Off-Road, a 2011 DCLB TRD Sport with Four Wheel Campers Fleet, and a 2017 TRD Off-Road with Vagabond Drifter. It’s remarkable with so many featured builds that no two are the same, which is a testament to the…
Overland Classifieds :: 2020 Chevrolet ZR2 Bison Diesel w/ AEV Components
If you’re in the market for a mid-size truck then arguably the sensible choice is the Toyota Tacoma TRD Off-Road or possibly the Ford Ranger. However, if you’re looking for something a little different, the Chevrolet ZR2 Bison is well worth your consideration. uch like the TRD Off-Road and Pro variants of the Tacoma, the…
Overland Classifieds :: 2009 Ford F-250 FX4 Off-Road
Ford’s F-Series lineup remains the best-selling full-size trucks in the US by a considerable margin, and it’s not hard to see why. In fact, the F-250 Tremor was awarded Overland Journal’s Editor’s Choice Award in this year’s Overland Full-Size Truck of the Year category. The team wrote that the F-250 eclipsed the competition because “it…
Overland Classifieds :: 2007 Mitsubishi Fuso FG 4×4 w/ Aliner Expedition
It’s no secret that I love the Fuso 4×4 and if I wasn’t in the market for an actual house then this would be my choice as a long-term rolling home. There’s a reason the Fuso has been EarthCruiser’s 4WD platform of choice for so many years! Long-lived motors and drivetrains, excellent capability, acceptable economy,…
Overland Classifieds :: 2021 Toyota Tundra Overland Rig
Full-size trucks have never been so popular, and the legendary Tundra is one of the very best. This monster Toyota is not the most capable, luxurious, powerful, or economical truck on the market, but when it comes to workhorse credentials, reliability, and build quality, it’s class-leading. As my grandad used to say, “A second-class ride…
Video of the Week :: Revere Overland “Doing the Impossible”
I’m going to preface this video by simply stating it’s the best overlanding film I have seen in a long time. The locations, trails, camera work, narration, and overarching storytelling come together to create a truly inspirational and visceral viewing experience. As a European, I’m in constant wonderment at the multitude of exquisite backcountry trails…
Overland Classifieds :: 1992 Mitsubishi Delica L300
I returned from Scandinavia at the end of 2019 after two years of sea kayaking, mountaineering, and bikepacking in the Arctic Circle, and once back in the UK, discovered that my 1986 Vanagon Syncro required an engine rebuild. The issue here was that I needed a vehicle to return to Norway so I decided to…
Overland Classifieds :: 2016 Toyota Tacoma TRD Off-Road FlipPac Camper
I interviewed Aidan Klimenko last week, and we discussed the fabled reliability of Toyota 4WDs. In short, we agreed that if you want to travel around the world, then you really can’t go wrong with a Toyota, and the Tacoma is no exception. This midsize truck is considered class-leading, thanks to legendary reliability, build quality,…
Stranded in the Simpson
This is a story of preparedness, teamwork, resilience, and love. It is an insight into the power of the press, the positives and negatives of the digital world, and an intimate, raw, and self-effacing account of an overlanding disaster. In 2021, nearing the end of their 14-month Australian adventure, the Zavros family, also known as…
Overland Classifieds :: 2022 Ram 1500 TRX w/ Ovrlnd Camper
It’s fair to say that overland vehicles are generally not synonymous with speed, and if anything, are traditionally slower than most daily drivers. However, over the past few years, there has been a wave of 4WD trucks released that seek to combine rugged go-anywhere capability with blistering Trophy Truck performance. Recent examples on our forum…
Overland Classifieds :: 1985 Toyota HDJ75 Land Cruiser Troopy
The Toyota Troopy is my favourite overland vehicle of all time. Sure, there are many rigs I love and admire, but if I had to choose just one it would be an easy decision. So, what makes this platform so special? A lot of vehicles are adapted for remote off-grid travel, but the Troopy was…
Overland Classifieds :: 2008 Mitsubishi Fuso FG140 4×4
I’m a big fan of compact overland rigs, but if I were to go for a larger truck and habitation box combo I’d consider the Mitsubishi Fuso FG140 4×4. The Fuso is an expedition-proven, reliable, and relatively economical rig with excellent capability, which is why it’s favoured as the base vehicle for companies such as…
