2022 Toyota 4Runner TRD Off Road Premium :: Featured Classified
I’ve long admired the 5th-generation Toyota 4Runner, which has aged like fine wine and is unquestionably a pinnacle platform for overland travel. It’s unapologetically honest, emphasizing build quality, rugged dependability, and practicality above all else, and does not preoccupy itself with being the most powerful or luxurious in the segment. Under the surface, this unassuming…
2008 Lexus GX470 :: Featured Classified
At Expedition Portal, we periodically choose a 4WD that stands out as exceptional for overland travel and build it up as an Overland Journal Project Vehicle. With this in mind, we decided to upfit the Lexus GX470 for backcountry travel and later showcased the completed build on the Expedition Portal YouTube. So, why the GX470?…

2013 Toyota Land Cruiser :: Classifieds
This year, I’ve focused on experiences above all else, and I can honestly say I’m happier for it. Sudden engine failure meant saying goodbye to my fully equipped rolling home and hitting the road in my beat-up 1992 Mitsubishi Delica L300 with little more than a bed platform and a battery system. However, what the…
2003 Ford E-350 Timberline 4×4 :: Classifieds
The E-350 4×4 with the legendary 7.3-liter Power-Stroke diesel motor is a great option for travel. It’s not especially fast, economical, or refined by modern standards but what it lacks in these areas it makes up tenfold in bulletproof dependability and backcountry durability. It also offers generous interior space for a full camper conversion while…
Overland Explorer Vehicles – 2024 Hudson Bay :: Featured Classified
At the beginning of this year, I abandoned my rolling home (a Vanagon Syncro) as engine failure struck for the third time. It was especially painful on this occasion as I’d just spent five months restoring the bodywork and overhauling the interior. It’s times like these that I wish I’d instead invested in a transferable…

2011 Nissan Frontier Pro-4x :: Classifieds
This Nissan Frontier Pro-4x has not been adopted to anywhere near the same extent for overlanding as its Toyota, Jeep, or Ford counterparts, despite showcasing many of the same desirable attributes.

2018 Toyota Tacoma TRD Off-Road 4×4 w/ AT Overland Summit :: Featured Classified
As I drooled over today’s overland-equipped Tacoma, it suddenly struck me that despite seeing hundreds of third gens listed to our forum, I’ve not read about a single engine or transmission replacement. Needless to say, I’m not suggesting it never happens. Still, when you consider the sheer number of these vehicles in circulation and how…
1993 Mitsubishi L300 Delica Chamonix :: Classifieds
I recently completed a 2,000 mile trip from the UK to the North of Norway in my 1992 Mitsubishi L300 Delica and it didn’t miss a beat. This vehicle was a recent acquisition but has quickly proven to be a dependable workhorse (despite being unloved for many years prior) and is now my rolling home…

The Mitsubishi is a favorite for heavier expedition builds with recent offerings including this $210,000 2012, a $250,000 2015, and a $105,000 2017.

1992 Toyota 4Runner SR5 :: Classifieds
I see thousands of listings on our forum, but the vehicles that excite me most are under $10,000. There’s something charming about a well-loved 4WD with stories to tell and many more miles to give. Perhaps it’s the romantic in me, but I love the notion of throwing some bedding, basic supplies, and my camera…
2003 Chevrolet Silverado 1500HD :: Classifieds
Full-size trucks have never been so popular, with an increasing number of travelers recognizing the advantages over mid-size alternatives (learn more by reading Full-Size Revolution).
