Today’s low-mileage (130,000 miles) LR3 SE showcases desirable factory options, including the Cold Weather and HD packages, yet is priced at a bargain $8,000. Furthermore, it has been routinely…

Modern Explorers :: Chris Burkard
Editor’s Note: This article was originally published in Overland Journal’s Winter 2021 Issue. Chris Burkard is best known for his work as an adventure photographer. But in more recent years, he’s built a warranted reputation as an ultra-endurance athlete. In the summer of 2019, he set a new solo record on Iceland’s WOW Cyclothon, completing…
Overland Classifieds :: 2016 Toyota 4Runner TRD Pro (March 29th, 2022)
The 4Runner has to be one of the best-looking 4WDs currently for sale, while the TRD Pro variant is arguably one of the most capable. Consequently, this Toyota has become a popular choice within the overlanding community, with recent examples including this Overland Ready Fifth Generation and a TRD Off-Road Camper. Today’s low-mileage offering, finished…
Overland Classifieds :: 2019 Ram Laramie 5500 Buckstop Single Wheel Conversion
Is it a coincidence that our forum has been awash with powerful Ram trucks recently, or does it have something to do with current gas prices? Either way, we’ve had some truly jaw-dropping examples, and today’s offering is no exception. This monster 5500, fitted with a 6.4-liter Hemi V8, has covered just 16,224 miles, showcases…
Overland Classifieds :: 2002 Ford E-450 4×4 Four Season Conversion
Ford ambulances are great base vehicles for overland builds, with recent examples including this 1998 E-350 4×4 and a 1997 Quigley 4×4. This platform provides the perfect middle ground between a van and a much larger truck with a habitation pod/camper setup. This means enough space for the comforts of home (including shower/toilet) while remaining…
Overland Classifieds :: 2016 Toyota Tacoma TRD Off-Road and 2021 Four Wheel Camper
The Tacoma continues to dominate our forum, with recent examples including this 2015 SR5 4×4 and a 2021 TRD Off-Road. The popularity of this truck is no coincidence, rather a testament to Toyota’s fixation on reliability and build quality above all else. The Tacoma may not be the most luxurious truck on the market, but…
Overland Classifieds :: 2013 Mitsubishi Fuso 4×4 Camper
Alongside the Isuzu NPR 4×4, the Mitsubishi Fuso 4×4 is one of the most highly regarded overland platforms on the market, which is why it’s EarthCruiser’s vehicle of choice. Subsequently, they’re rarely for sale and are snapped up quickly when listed, with recent examples including this 2015 EarthCruiser FX and a 2007 Fuso FG140 4×4….
Overland Classifieds :: 2019 Ford Ranger with Norweld Tray and Canopy
Here in the UK, the Ford Ranger is the best- selling truck on the market, with Auto Express naming it their Pick-up of the Year in 2019, 2020, and 2021. This reputation was largely based on their commercial performance, but in recent years Ford has worked hard to make the truck more comfortable for recreational…
Overland Classifieds :: 2007 Overland Toyota FJ Cruiser
The FJ Cruiser is one of the few 4WDs that looks as fresh today as it did when originally launched (revealed as a concept car back in 2003 at the North American International Auto Show). I’m a big fan and have shared several examples over the past few months, including a 2007 Supercharged FJ and…

Overland Classifieds :: EarthRoamer #28
During the pandemic, many people chose to explore areas closer to home rather than flying overseas for their vacations. Consequently, there was a huge demand for campers, RVs, and overland rigs, which meant the cost of used vehicles skyrocketed. It’s safe to say that things got a little crazy, but fortunately, there are signs that…
Overland Classifieds :: 2003 Ford F-250 w/ 2020 Overland Explorer Camper
The Ford F-250 is a great vehicle for overlanding thanks to its robust engines and drivetrain, impressive 4WD performance, and accessibility to readily available aftermarket parts and services. Subsequently, they’re a popular choice on our forum, with previous examples including this Ford F-250 with Whiskey Tango Camper, a 4×4 FX4 CrewCab Diesel, and Basil Lynch’s…
Overland Classifieds :: 2012 Ford E-350 RB Baja Rig
It’s no secret that I’m a big fan of the Ford E-350 4×4 conversions and have recently featured several lovely examples, including this V10 Quigley 4×4 Hightop and a 1997 Quigley 4×4 Ambulance. The prices for these stunning rigs seem to vary dramatically, with some listings fetching over $100,000. Hence, at $55,000, this V8 offering…
Overland Classifieds :: 2015 Toyota Tacoma SR5 4×4
With limitless possibilities, trucks offer the ultimate blank canvas for building an overland rig. I love that the modular nature of these builds allows the owner to constantly evolve or completely change their setup at any time. A great example of this is the Toyota Tacoma, one of the most popular trucks on our forum,…
Overland Classifieds :: 2017 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 4×4 2500
The perfect overlanding vehicle doesn’t exist, but the Mercedes Sprinter 4×4 comes pretty close. I know that statement will agitate many of you, but let me explain. I’m not suggesting the Sprinter stands out in any one particular area, but it does seem to offer an acceptable compromise in almost all scenarios. In other words,…
Overland Classifieds :: Ford E-350 LB Quigley 4×4
E-Series vans benefit from powerful engines, strong drivetrains, and readily available 4×4 conversions, modifications, and accessories.

This stunning low-mileage (55,000 miles) example showcases a Quigley 4×4 conversion, premium modifications, tasteful camper interior, and is priced at just $59,000 OBO. That’s no small sum…
Overland Classifieds :: 2020 Ram 2500 w/ 2022 Overland Explorer Vehicles Flatbed Camper
The Toyota Tacoma’s domination of our forum has been recently challenged by a number of high-spec Rams, including this 2013 2500 and a 2020 3500. At $189,000, this 2020 Ram is the most expensive to date and was built by the gentleman who owns Off-Grid Engineering and co-owns Boulder Vehicle Outfitters. I appreciate that this…
Overland Classifieds :: 2008 Toyota Sequoia Limited
I recently shared a $12,500 2005 Toyota Sequoia that has since sold and was surprised to see another listed this week. The Sequoia is not the first name that comes to mind when we think about overlanding, but with a long-lived 5.7-liter V8, Toyota’s impressive All-Trac 4WD system, and a center locking differential, it’s a…
Overland Classifieds :: 2003 Toyota Land Cruiser
The Toyota Land Cruiser needs no introduction and remains the 4WD by which all others are measured. Bombproof reliability, whatever the weather or terrain, global parts availability, class-leading build quality, excellent all-terrain capabilities, and a generous suite of driver comforts are just a few of the Land Cruiser’s offerings. I recently featured this 2005 Toyota…
Overland Classifieds :: 2005 Toyota 4Runner
It’s all too easy to get starry-eyed and lose sight of what you really need while perusing the beautiful rigs listed on our forum. It’s not unusual to see huge 4WD expedition trucks change hands within months, owners realizing the running costs and upkeep are simply unsustainable or overkill for their goals. The best overland…
