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. Furthermore, they’re comfortable for full-time living, yet compact enough to drive daily. 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 :: 2017 Schutt XVenture XV-2 Off-Road Trailer
Perhaps it’s the promise of good food, drink, and conversation, but like the kitchen counter, friends and family tend to congregate around trailer galleys. This Schutt XVenture XV-2 boasts all the bells and whistles, including a Camp Chef Triton water heater with a factory-optional shield, ARB fridge/freezer with an optional insulating cover, folding aluminum galley…
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…
Overland Classifieds :: 2017 Toyota Tundra Limited with Go Fast Campers V1 Canopy Camper
Here’s your chance to nab a low-mileage Toyota Tundra Limited with just 55,000 miles on the odometer, a variety of aftermarket equipment, and a color-matched Go Fast Campers V1 platform camper. This rig would be an excellent option for the traveler that needs versatility. You could go light and fast on the trail, camping out…
Overland Classifieds :: 2015 Ford F-250 4×4 FX4 CrewCab Diesel
The “perfect” overland vehicle doesn’t exist, and what works for one owner may not work for the next. Hence, you could spend a fortune on a fully built-out camper and still come to realize that you need to completely reconfigure the layout to suit your needs. Only when you start traveling will you discover what…
Overland Classifieds :: 2021 Toyota Tacoma TRD Off-Road
The dominance of the Tacoma on our forum was briefly interrupted by several monster Ram builds, including this 2020 3500 and 2013 2500. Well, with diesel prices hitting a record £1.80 per liter here in the UK, I’m struggling to justify my Webasto heater, let alone a 6.7-liter Cummins. Forgive me, Tacoma, I was misguided…
Overland Classifieds :: Kitted-out 2019 Ram Power Wagon
Are there any other 3/4-ton pickup trucks that are more capable straight from the factory than the Ram Power Wagon? This full-size truck comes standard with a rear locking differential, disconnectable front sway bar, winch, and torquey Hemi v8 gas engine. And while those highlights are an excellent starting point for anyone with ambitions to…
Overland Classifieds :: Ford Transit T-350 Vandoit w/ Quigley 4×4
Did you say $120,000 for a 2017 Ford Transit?! Admittedly, that’s an outrageous amount of money for a stock van, but read the specs, and suddenly the price starts to make sense. This isn’t the first overland-ready Transit I’ve featured to our classifieds, with recent offerings including this similar $80,000 2017 Transit Quigley 4×4 and…
Overland Classifieds :: 2020 Ram 3500 Norweld Touring Setup
Here in the UK and wider Europe, it’s unusual to see Ram trucks, and I assume that’s due to their big motors and subsequent running costs. At £1.49 ($2) per liter for diesel, a 6.7-liter Cummins is simply not a viable option. Running costs aside, I think Ram makes some of the best-looking, well-equipped, and capable…
Overland Classifieds :: Overland-ready 2005 Toyota Sequoia
During the pandemic, overlanding has exploded in popularity, and subsequently, used vehicles are selling at a premium. Traditionally, vehicle travel has been a cost-effective way to see the world, so it can be frustrating as a prospective buyer watching rigs sell for hugely inflated prices. However, there are still deals to be had, and this…
Overland Classifieds :: 2013 Ram 2500 Cummins Manual with Norweld Flatbed and Woolrich Hawk
I’ve featured several super-cool Ram trucks recently, including this monster 2018 Prospector and 2020 3500 Laramie. Additionally, you can follow Senior Editor Matt Swartz’s build series as he sets out to create the ultimate overland-ready Ram 2500 (he just posted a great write-up on the Expedition One Range Max Ultra HD Steel Bumper). This 2013…
Overland Classifieds :: 2012 Adrenalin Industries Expedition Truck
There are a few key companies producing ultra-expensive overland rigs; those that come to mind include EarthCruiser, Global Expedition Vehicles, and EarthRoamer. However, premium trucks from lesser-known companies are occasionally listed on our forum— examples include this $468,000 1997 Stewart and Stevenson Class A RV and a $290,000 Mercedes-Benz Vario 814D 4×4. It’s always refreshing…
Overland Classifieds :: 2008 Ford F-450 Camper
I’m not sure what’s more impressive, this beautifully designed overland-ready F-450 or the stunning photography accompanying the listing. This 2008 Super Duty has covered just 110,000 miles, incorporates several premium overlanding modifications, and features an insulated aluminum framed camper that weighs under 1,000 pounds. However, perhaps the most notable inclusion is the beautiful wooden rear…
Overland Classifieds :: 2015 Nissan Xterra Pro 4X
The Nissan Xterra isn’t the first vehicle that comes to mind when we think about overlanding rigs, but that’s part of the charm. I’ve always liked the Xterra’s rugged looks, but I have to say that the premium Pro 4X package looks absolutely fantastic. With the optional off-road lights, roof rack, 16-inch uprated alloy wheels,…
Overland Classifieds :: 1990 Land Rover Santana 2500DL
The Land Rover Santana 2500DL isn’t something you see every day. This model from 1990 has a 5-speed manual transmission, 2.5-liter 12J diesel engine, and 125,000 miles on the odometer. Its most recent jaunt was a surf trip to Baja, Mexico. “I cruised it 2,000 miles to Baja and back with no problems, and it…
Overland Classifieds :: 2005 Stewart and Stevenson M1083A 6×6 with Custom Gichner S-280 Shelter
Military vehicles make some of the most bomb-proof global travel platforms available, with large payloads that can accommodate just about any type of habitat you could want. The M1083A, a.k.a. medium tactical vehicle (also FMTV), is a prime example, with a 6×6 drivetrain that is powered by a Caterpillar diesel engine. The M1083A was developed…
