We’ve featured several Ford F-250 and F-350 models over the past months, but this 1997 Ford F-350 XLT is a different kind of beast. While it might not have the creature comforts of newer models, this build features a classic body style and a reliable power plant in the 7.3-liter diesel engine. The flatbed camper…

Overland Classifieds :: Single-owner 2017 Toyota Tundra with Autohome Rooftop Tent
We share a lot of top-dollar classified vehicles, but we like to try and balance them with more affordable listings as well, like this 2017 Toyota Tundra. This single-owner vehicle is understated in appearance but has a 3-inch lift with Fox and Icon components, a color-matched bed canopy, and an Autohome rooftop tent. The truth…
Overland Classifieds :: 2016 Toyota Tacoma Expedition Build
The Tacoma was first introduced to the US market in 1995 as a replacement for the Hilux and provided an altogether more refined driving experience while carrying the same bulletproof dependability and workhorse credentials forwards.

Overland Classifieds :: 2004 Chevrolet Express G2500 Quigley 4×4
Like the comparable Ford E-350, the Chevy Express benefits from dependable motors and drivetrains, readily available OEM and aftermarket parts, and can similarly be converted to 4WD by industry experts Quigley 4×4. We’ve had many E-350 4WDs posted to our forum (such as this E-350 LB Quigley 4×4 and a 4WD Ambulance), but very few…
Overland Classifieds :: 2005 Lexus GX470 Sport
Excellent all-terrain performance matched with bulletproof reliability and class-leading interior comfort are just some of the reasons the Lexus GX470 is a great option for vehicle travel.

Overland Classifieds :: 2016 Ford F-550 Custom Overlander
Luxury overland vehicles have become increasingly popular during the pandemic as more people travel closer to home. Subsequently, this has led to long wait times for new builds and inflated prices for used examples. EarthRoamer is arguably the pioneer of this sector, producing vehicles well in excess of $1,000,000 (check out their $1,900,000 HD model…
Overland Classifieds :: 2015 Lexus GX460 Overland Build
It’s fair to say that for many of us, overlanding conjures romanticized ideas of navigating gravel switchbacks, through jaw-dropping scenery, in a cool rig. However, these visions tend to omit the long highway miles, traffic jams, busy cities, narrow streets, potholes, and other harsh realities of vehicle travel in this modern age. Sure, an old…

Overland Classifieds :: 2009 Toyota Tacoma SR5 w/ Pastime 700FDS Truck Camper
The Tacoma is not particularly luxurious nor powerful, but it is one of the most dependable trucks on the market and excellent off-road. Subsequently, it’s a very popular vehicle platform for overland builds, with recent examples including this 1997 4×4 w/ Four Wheel Camper and a Double Cab TRD 4×4. Today’s desirable SR5 model showcases…
Overland Classifieds :: 2012 Land Rover Defender TD4 with Globe Camper
There’s no such thing as the perfect overland rig, and one of the biggest challenges is balancing size and comfort with all-terrain capability. A seasoned overlander once told me that huge expedition trucks offer “the realities of comfort, but little else” and that ideally, you want a capable 4WD rig that is as light and…
Overland Classifieds :: 2016 Ram 2500

If you’re…
Overland Classifieds: Toyota Land Cruiser 80 Series – 1997-1FZ 4.5
There is a saying in Africa – Land Rover discovered Africa, but Toyota keeps Africa running. One of the easiest but least considered options for international overland travel is the “fly and drive” option. Many overlanders prefer to ship their home-bought and built vehicles to distant continents but the option to fly and drive presents…
Overland Classifieds :: 2017 Ram Power Wagon w/ EarthCruiser GZL 400
The Power Wagon is one of the few trucks purposefully designed for all-terrain travel and is consequently very capable when the tarmac ends.
