Econoline vans have been around since the ’60s and are an extremely popular platform for campervan conversions, that is if you can get ahold of one. In 2015 the Transit replaced the Econoline passenger van, leaving the cutaway and stripped chassis as the only Econoline option for buyers wanting a new vehicle. But regardless of…
Overland Classifieds :: Mercedes-Benz Vario 814D 4×4
Well, the day has finally come where I have the opportunity to showcase my dream overland rig. Now, before you grab your pitchforks, let me explain. In my mind, the ultimate round-the-world 4WD is a Toyota Land Cruiser (check out a cool FZJ80 I recently featured), but in terms of a vehicle suited to remote…
Overland Classifieds :: 2013 Toyota Tacoma fully built for Overlanding and Daily Driving
The Toyota Tacoma is one of the most popular vehicles on our forum. Originally introduced to the US market in 1995 as a replacement for the Hilux, it promised a more refined driving experience while still being a dependable workhorse. The balance between everyday comfort and all-terrain capability has made the Tacoma a sought-after overlanding…
Overland Classifieds :: 2019 Ford F350 Platinum 6.7-liter Powerstroke Turnkey Overland Rig
The current semiconductor shortage combined with shipping delays has made purchasing new vehicles challenging. So instead of placing orders with dealerships, many buyers are looking to the used vehicle market instead. Even though prices are up, there are still deals to be had on lightly-used vehicles, both stock and fully-kitted. The Expedition Portal forum classified…

Land Rover fans, get ready to drool over this left-hand-drive 1994 Land Rover Defender 110 outfitted with a Globe Camper. This build comes with the fixings, including the original chassis, engine, running gear, Old Man Emu suspension system, and a long-range auxiliary fuel tank.

Overland Classifieds :: 1994 FZJ80 Series Toyota Land Cruiser
The Toyota Land Cruiser is perhaps the most highly regarded overland vehicle and the obvious choice for remote vehicle travel. This factory triple-locked FZJ80 has been meticulously maintained and tastefully upgraded for the road less travelled. If you’d like more information on the 80-Series, I recommend checking out Matt Scott’s article on Why The Land…
Overland Classifieds :: 2001 Land Rover Discovery II
The popularity of vehicle travel has increased exponentially over the past 10 years, and further accelerated during the pandemic, which is awesome. However, many of the vehicles and accessories showcased at events/online are expensive, giving the illusion that overlanding is reserved for the wealthy. In fact, overlanding is one of the most cost-effective ways to…
Overland Classifieds :: OK4WD 2017 Tacoma w/Alu-Cab Camper
There is no denying that wedge-style pop-up campers are currently on trend in the overland space. This makes sense from a consumer standpoint as the pop-top provides indoor living space, ease of setup and can be more weight-efficient and cost-effective than a canopy, roof rack, and rooftop tent combo. This 2017 Tacoma TRD Off-Road build…
Overland Classifieds :: 2004 Stewart & Stevenson M1088A1 6×6 Truck with Composite Habitat
This 2004 Stewart & Stevenson M1088A1 6×6 military truck was purchased with the intent of outfitting it for overland travel. Starting with the chassis, the owner began upgrading a variety of components including the suspension and fuel tank. He also installed a 16-foot Total Composites habitat with a queen-sized bed platform. But unfortunately, due to…
Overland Classifieds :: 2018 Subaru Crosstrek w/Roofnest
With a mere 44,000 miles on the odometer, this 2018 Subaru Crosstrek Limited with a Roofnest tent is a different sort of adventuremobile–one that we rarely see on the Expedition Portal classifieds forum. This tangerine dream comes with Yakima crossbars and a solar panel to help power the Dometic fridge. If you don’t need to…
Overland Classifieds :: 2013 Ford Sportsmobile E350 EB V10 4×4
The Ford E350 4×4 Sportsmobile, much like the Mercedes Sprinter 4WD MWB, provides the perfect balance between comfort and capability. There’s no such thing as the perfect rig, but in my experience the best overland vehicles incorporate the comforts of home within the smallest possible footprint. A seasoned overlander once told me that the bigger…
Overland Classifieds :: 1998 Ford E-350 4×4 Ambulance
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…
Overland Classifieds :: 2016 Mercedes Benz 144 Sprinter 4×4 with 150k-mile Warranty
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. In fact, many upfitters are booked out a year or more, forcing prospective buyers to plunk down a deposit and be patient or search for pre-owned vans (which…
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. It’s unusual for a vehicle that’s over a decade old to still look contemporary, but the FJ’s rugged yet curvaceous body shape matched with classic Land Cruiser styling cues and purposeful 4WD detailing…
Overland Classifieds :: 2017 Toyota Tacoma TRD Offroad with Bison Overland Camper
We’ve shared a few Tacomas recently, but arguably none as overland prepared as today’s example. This stunning rig, featured at Overland Expo Mountain West, was built by specialists Bison Overland Campers as a prototype ahead of their transition to composite construction in 2022. From the Seller: “Being this is a prototype and a used truck,…
Overland Classifieds :: 2005 Ford E-350 Quigley 4×4 Van
Rooftop tents and pop-up campers are classic overland options with a long list of pros. They are, however, challenging to live out of in inclement weather. This is where hard-sided vehicles, such as vans, really shine. Wind, rain, mosquitos—no problem. This 2005 Ford E350 Quigley 4×4 offers a comfortable retreat when Mother Nature is in…
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. Gotta love depreciation! Originally designed as a military vehicle, the G Wagon, short for Geländewagen (need some G Wagon history?…
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. In fact, families usually choose this model as a practical daily driver rather than an expedition vehicle. But that’s what makes today’s listing so special; it’s a fantastic example of what’s possible with imagination, expertise, extensive modifications,…
Overland Classifieds :: 2021 Toyota Tacoma TRD Off-Road Double Cab 4WD
The Toyota Tacoma is one of the most popular vehicles on our forum, and this example is one of the very best. If you’re looking for a base vehicle for your dream overlanding build (not to mention a great everyday vehicle for work or recreation), then look no further. Finished in stunning Army Green, this…
