The price of overland vehicles designed for full-time living can be eye-watering and, at times, as much (if not more than) an actual house (EarthRoamer and EarthCruiser come to mind). It’s refreshing when a more budget-friendly vehicle is listed on our forum that’s both a capable 4WD and a fully equipped home on wheels. This…
Overland Classifieds :: 1991 Ford Bronco XLT with Custom Camper
While Toyota, Land Rover, Jeep, and vans of all kinds have dominated the overland space, it’s rarer to see a Ford out in the wild. This 1991 Ford Bronco XLT with a custom camper is reminiscent of Gary and Monika Wescott’s Turtle III, the Ford F-350 with a Four Wheel pop-up camper that the couple…

In case you’ve been living under a rock for the past year (understandable, given the circumstances), you should know that the demand for campervans has been skyrocketing.

Overland Classifieds :: 2007 Supercharged Toyota AT FJ Cruiser
The FJ Cruiser started life as a concept car but was so well received that Toyota decided to put it into production.

Overland Classifieds :: 2005 Ford E-350 Quigley 4×4 Van

Overland Classifieds :: 2014 Mercedes Benz G Wagon (G 550)
A new Mercedes Benz G Wagon is one of those coveted overland platforms that is financially out of reach to most of us. But as a used vehicle, the price becomes a little bit more palatable.

Overland Classifieds :: 2018 Lexus GX460 fully-outfitted
The Lexus GX460 isn’t the first 4WD that comes to mind when we think of capable overlanding rigs.

Overland Classifieds :: 1993 Mitsubishi Delica L300 Chamonix
Editor’s Note: This 1993 Mitsubishi Delica is no longer for sale. The cuteness factor of the L300 Delicas can’t help but spark joy within me. Specifically, this custom-painted Chamonix spec version elicits dreams of snow-laden drives to the hills, cozy winter camping, and sharp turns on the skis. The build has a relatively simple interior,…

Overland Classifieds: Defender 130 Expedition Camper
A few months ago, Matthew Sanda set out to build the perfect expedition vehicle to drive from Cape Town to Shanghai.
