I have a Tacoma with a 6' bed, and Leer cap, and pack it away back there. I will be getting a Yakima or Thule Skybox storage design eventually that will be long enough to pack it up there, and that will be my final solution. I can pack the tent, and other sleeping gear up there as I already...

My wife and I love traveling through Iceland. Will be going back again, probably next year and 4wd drive some "F" roads next time into the Highlands. The northern Indian Himalayas are another place we need to do a return trip to, as we have good friends over there in the mountains that we want...

That's so cool! My wife and I have traveled there quite a few times, and love the country, and the people! What a great place to explore.

I don't know the operational costs of the venue in Arrington, but I plan on attending every instructor led activity I can get to while there, as my wife for my B-Day bought the Overland Expo Experience for me seeing as I worked all those years, got to meet and share a few beers with all of the...

In full disclosure, I do not work for this marketing company that presents and conducts the Overland Expo shows around the country. However..... In all honesty, I have never seen what a budget is for a show of this magnitude, however having worked as paid staff at all of the previous Overland...

Depending on your tow vehicle there are plenty to chose from. In my full size P.U., I have been using a Tekonsha model for my 18' flat bed trailer and horse trailer, but I am looking to use a Redarc set-up built into my dashboard panel for my 2020 Toyota Tacoma should we purchase a camping/boat...

None that I have heard, but then again, this will be my first Overland Expo East I will be attending now that is it is in VA. If you have the Overland Expo Experience package, I do know that there will be a separate campsite just for them to easily access the training sessions and such.

Ask your wife what she will do when she has to use the "facilities" at 3 AM and may not navigate down the next level well (climb down a ladder or otherwise to get out). My wife stated quite simply that if she had to do that, and fell off the ladder from a rooftop tent or some other...

This will be my first trip to this Overland Expo as well as a paid customer (I worked the other shows as paid staff when they had been held in Asheville), and from what I have been informed, if you want to camp as a group, you need to all arrive at the same time. Now, having said that, maybe...

If you want a mechanically relaible vehicle with very good resale, stick with a Tacoma TRD Off Road. Besides the Jeep, you can find and buy anything under the sun afermarket to make your Taco rig off road worthy should you care to spend the money.

I think they mean more over where we live, off of Bald Mountain Rd.. in Burnsville about 3 miles from where I live. https://www.silasbranch.com/

I used to be employed by the folks that originally ran the Overland Expos, and worked all of the Asheville events. And yes, I felt bad for everyone at that "mudfest" at the last one as I too suffered through that one having to supervise parking cars, and taking care of other business during the...

Howdy Neighbor!

Bluetti AC50S sitting next to the ICECO JP40 on the folded down back seat of my DCLB Tacoma.

I'll try to drive down to Mills River next month to see if they still meet on that third Saturday of the month at their "Rigs And Coffee" meet-up in the AM at that coffee shop. Thanks.

Does 828 Overland still meet every 3rd Sat for Rigs and Coffee in Mills River?? Is anyone from that group going to attend Overland Expo East this year?

I live just 20 miles from Mt. Mitchell in Burnsville, NC, and will driving up on Thursday as well. I plan on driving up on I-81 (via I-26), and we could meet on the way to I-26 on NC 19 in a "Park and Ride" just outside of town on the way to I-26 if you would like. I too have the Overland Expo...

Greetings from Burnsville, just south of you in Boone. Buy what you can afford and go from there. Boone has harsh winters (as do we), so my vote would be for a reliable AWD like a Subaru (we have a Crosstrek with a 5 speed Manual and it drives great in the mountains all year), or a 4WD...

Because life isn't a dress rehearsal....
