Much like the Land Rover Defender 130, the Gladiator provides all the benefits of a 4WD but with an extended wheelbase and a more versatile pickup body style. The double-cab pick-up has to be one of the best all-around vehicles money can buy. It can be configured as a daily workhorse, commuter, family wagon, dedicated…
Overland Classifieds :: 2017 Toyota Tacoma TRD Off-Road with GoFastCamper
The Tacoma is comfortably the most popular truck on our forum and despite some impressive competition from the likes of GMC, Chevrolet, and Ford, it shows no sign of handing over its mid-size crown. In short, it’s a Toyota, and while many of the alternatives are cheaper, better equipped, and more powerful they can’t compete…
Overland Classifieds :: 2021 Ford F-250 Lariat Ultimate with Tremor Package
I always get excited when Adventure Motors post another of their overland builds to our forum. In the past, we’ve featured a number of their creations, including this 2017 Toyota Tundra TRD Pro, a 2019 Toyota Tacoma TRD Off-Road, and, my personal favorite, a 2005 Lexus GX470. Today they’re back with a 2021 F-250 showcasing…
Overland Classifieds :: 2021 EarthCruiser FX
Suppose you’re in the market for a go-anywhere luxury overland vehicle. In that case, there is no shortage of options with drool-worthy builds from EarthRoamer, Global Expedition Vehicles, SLRV Expedition Vehicles, and, indeed EarthCruiser. However, I’d argue that some of these builds lean slightly towards the realities of luxury and the illusion of capability. In…
Overland Classifieds :: 2019 Ram 1500 Rebel
The 1500 Rebel made waves when it was released in 2015 and again when the company announced the 2500 version. The Rebel offered Ram customers a heavy-duty diesel-powered off-road focused alternative to the Power Wagon (only offered with the HEMI motor). The standard 1500 variant is Ram’s best-selling full-size truck, so the Rebel was welcomed…
Overland Classifieds :: 1994 Mercedes G Wagon
There are a select few vehicles I’d consider in the same league as the Toyota Land Cruiser, and the G-Wagon is one of them. I’m not referring to recent models, which are little more than a mall-crawling status symbol. Steyr-Daimler-Puch developed the original Geländewagon in Austria, and Mercedes sold it as a military off-roader. Thanks…
Overland Classifieds :: 2022 Toyota Tacoma TRD Off-Road w/ Flatbed Tray and Canopy
The Tacoma dominates the mid-size category and is the most popular choice on our forum with recent examples including this 2016 SR5 with EarthCruiser camper, a 2020 TRD Off-Road, and a 2016 with FlipPac Camper. In short, if you’re in the market for a do-it-all mid-size truck for overlanding then the Tacoma is the vehicle…
Overland Classifieds :: 2011 Toyota Tundra TRD Off-Road 4×4 w/ FWC Hawk
The Tundra is one of the most popular full-size trucks on our forum, with recent adventure-ready examples including this 2021 overland rig, a 2022 CrewMax Limited TRD Off-Road, and a 2012 Rock Warrior Crew Max. The Tundra is not incredibly economical nor the most powerful or luxurious truck on the market. Still, much like its…
Overland Classifieds :: 2016 Ford F-550 4×4 with 2019 Northstar Laredo SC Camper
If you’re planning weekend adventures or the occasional camp-out, then a mid-size truck with a minimalist modular camping setup is ideal (the Tacoma TRD Off Road or Pro would be my choice). However, a full-size truck is arguably a better option if you’re planning long-term trips or desire to live on the road permanently. One…
Overland Classifieds :: 2010 Ford E-350 4×4
It’s no secret that I’m a fan of the E-350 4×4, and I’m certainly not the only one. This desirable rig is a favorite on our forum, with recent examples including this 2013 Sportsmobile, 2010 Ujoint 4×4, and 1997 Econoline 4×4. There are many reasons this platform is such a popular choice for overland travel…
Overland Classifieds :: 1971 Ford Bronco w/ Pop-Up Camper
The Ford Bronco is an American icon with classic examples steadily increasing in value over recent years. We’ve featured a number of adventure-ready builds, including this 1991 XLT with a custom camper and a time-warp, a one-owner model from 1977. The new Bronco was also a huge success, with demand outstripping supply to such an…
Overland Classifieds :: 1994 Ram 2500 w/ Alaskan Camper
It’s no secret that times are hard right now, with economies worldwide recovering from the pandemic’s impact. Consequently, for many of us, the prospect of being able to afford a camper or overland rig for the summer season can feel unrealistic. However, don’t lose hope because there are still bargains out there, and with more…
Overland Classifieds :: 1989 Toyota Land Cruiser Troop Carrier HJ75
I want this Troop Carrier. It’s as simple as that. The seller is the first to point out that this example is rough around the edges, but this rig remains a great value at $18,000 OBO. Today’s offering is definitely not low mileage at a whopping 405,000 miles (on a 2H diesel motor) but does…
Overland Classifieds :: 2007 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited with Cummins 4BT
The Jeep Wrangler needs no introduction and is one of the most popular 4WDs on our forum. A few recent adventure-ready examples include a 2006 Rubicon Unlimited, 2016 Expedition Build, and 2017 Unlimited Sport. The Wrangler is one of the few 4WD vehicles that has remained true to its roots and has continued to be…
Overland Classifieds :: 2006 Ford E-350 Super Duty with Stahl Service Body and CCV Poptop
The Ford E-350 is one of the most popular overland platforms on our forum, with recent examples including this 1999 Class C camper, 2006 Sportsmobile, and 1997 camper. However, today’s 2006 build might be the most unique and impressive to date. The rig showcases a “bulletproofed” 6.0-liter diesel, well-equipped Stahl service body, Colorado Camper Van…
Overland Classifieds :: 2008 Toyota Land Cruiser 200 Series
If we’re talking about the ultimate do-it-all vehicle, then the 200 Series Land Cruiser is a top contender. This iconic 4WD showcases plush interior luxury (and seating for seven), is comfortable around town and on the highway, and is legendary when the tarmac ends. The engines and drivetrains are bulletproof, build quality is class-leading, and…
Overland Classifieds :: 2022 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 4×4 Campervan
The immense popularity of the Mercedes Sprinter has made it somewhat divisive. There’s even a “one less Sprinter” movement. I don’t understand the hostility. After all, its popularity reflects the Sprinter’s reputation as a spacious, reliable, comfortable, easy-to-drive, well-equipped, and relatively economical home-on-wheels. The 4WD (technically AWD) variant is the crème of the crop and…
Overland Classifieds :: 2000 Land Rover Discovery 2
The cost of classic Land Rovers has skyrocketed in recent years with clean examples such as this essentially stock 1993 Defender 110 200 Tdi listed for over $40,000. However, fear not because the Discovery offers much of the same charm without the eye-watering price tag. Furthermore, in some respects, the Discovery provides certain advantages over…
Overland Classifieds :: 2017 Ram 2500 AEV Prospector w/ GFC V1
The Ram 2500 from the factory is a very capable and desirable platform for overland builds, but AEV (American Expedition Vehicles) takes this already impressive rig and turns it into a monster, aka the Prospector. With a name like that, you can’t help but get excited. It wasn’t mass-produced and came with a hefty price…
Overland Classifieds :: 2019 Toyota 4Runner
The 4Runner is frequently featured in the top 20 best-selling 4WDs in the US, and that’s no surprise. It’s a Toyota, which means class-leading build quality and bulletproof reliability in a vehicle that’s just as comfortable on the daily commute as it is navigating backcountry trails. The vast majority of us can’t afford to run…
