9 Best Hard Storage Cases for Overlanding
Some people have an innate ability to learn their lessons from the wise words and experiences of others. As I gazed at the half-empty plastic storage case on my roof with a bewildered stare, I couldn’t help but wish I was one of those people. How long had it been open? For 10 miles, 30,…

Introducing the EarthCruiser Extreme Land Cruiser 79 Series 330 XTR6X6
Before we delve into the details of this impressive vehicle, we have to ask ourselves why is a 6×6 vehicle desirable for overland travel. Well, the 6×6 platform is generally an awesome platform that offers incredible off-road capability, increased load capacity, and head-turning; look at me, street cred (if that is important to you). The…
Citroën Unveils Polarising Retro Type Holidays Teaser at Düsseldorf Caravan Show
At first glance, the Type Holidays camper, derived from and built on the frame of the Citroën SpaceTourer, seems to be a restored 1940s Type G. But it is most definitely not.

Tune Outdoor M1 Truck Camper :: Field Tested
When Tim, Tune Outdoor’s genial PR rep, dropped off a full-sized Tune Outdoor M1 truck camper for an extended Expedition Portal test run, I was struck first by its austerity.

The Ultralite TB50 Camper is Both Lightweight and Affordable
A recent post on Instagram by a popular and controversial journalist created a furor in the digital and real world. In his post, the journalist lambasted an influencer and the companies who worked with him to build an easy-on-the-eye, well-equipped, but (apparently) grossly overweight vehicle.

The Vantage 2.4 Slide-On Camper is Quite Unique
At first glance, the Vantage 2.4 reminds us of only one overland camper, the venerable and unmistakable Nimbl Evolution (built in Colfax, California), as the Vantage also features a curved roof and is mounted to a flatbed (it does not, however, offer a camper to cab walkthrough).
