truck

Tent & lift, used a handful of times--works great. Was in a 6'4 bed, but it expands up to 8' beds or adjusts down to the shorter beds too. Turns any topper into a full camper, with the press of a button: easy setup and take down. Impressive in person, always a conversation starter at the...

This Super Duty has been a 6-year project. I purchased it with one previous owner who only put 18,000 miles on it before it became mine. I bought this rig specifically to pair it with the AT Overland Summit topper. I built a completely custom modular interior for the camper that can be removed...

Hey all! I am new to overlanding and have been watching a ton of videos. I do want to get my truck within 6 months and I do want a full sized truck for my family. I am debating of getting a LT Trail Boss Silverado 2.7 because of the tech (I am a tech person) as it’s similar in price to Custom...

Hey everybody, come see us this Saturday for a chance to learn some stuff from one of the best food trucks in Colorado out of Grand Junction. We will be hosting a demonstration from Underdog Cheese for some easy camp cooking ideas from 11am to 1:30pm Saturday. Bring your rig and lets eat some...

Greeting folks, So I have my gigantic dometic cfx3 75dz on the passenger side.. dry it's 61 lbs, full of beer and food I imagine 100lbs. I want to install a yakima road shower (7 GALLON) on the passenger side on the bed rack, dry 25 lbs, wet 85 lbs. So with a total of 180 lbs extra on the...

My daily driver as well. I have grand plans for the future, but currently in between careers so can't afford a whole bunch right now. A lot of DIY.

Dad started it all and the boy wanted to follow suit but in a more "classic" way. I have been updating the What Did You Do With Your Rig Today? thread with details on both but figured a build thread would be a better place to chronicle what's going on. Dad's build is in progress but has stalled...

So once I get my topper, I'm planning on putting a mattress in the back for camping like in the pictures. Thing is I need storage on the sides instead of a drawer system under the bed because I want to sit up. I know I can build it from wood, but I was thinking of pre-built things I could leave...

Hello Everyone, New Member and looking forward to learning and sharing. I'm in Southeast GA about an hour North of Savannah. Well versed in Survival, Prepping, Camping, etc. Lots of Offroad adventures growing up and time spent in the outdoors hunting, fishing, camping and practicing survival...

Hi, I’ve been interested in Overlanding for a bit. I know in North America gas is the predominant go-to type of fuel, but I was wondering, is diesel or gas easier to find in Africa, Europe and Asia. I plan to tour around these continents, and I was wondering what type of fuel is easier to come...

Through discussions on my previous threads, I have narrowed my build down to a truck as opposed to a Subaru Crosstrek or Jeep Wrangler (see Which one?). But here’s my next question... Should I go diesel or not? We intended to purchase a 3/4 ton pickup with the diesel option, most likely GM...

What is the best source of electricity for an overlansing vehicle. Like if I had a pickup truck with a bed cap and I had electric appliances in it, what is the best way to power them, as the truck’s battery can not power it all. Is a generator good? Solar panels? What is a good source? Thanks

This is going to be a slight build as it's my daily driver and work horse. It's being set up as a long range traveler with the ability to do some trails. Currently it is stock except for the added lights 42" behind the grill, ditch lights, and the bright red cap. The plan forward is new...

Here is my 1997 Silverado K1500 that I'm building. It is used for a winter daily, overlander, tows my boat and car hauler. I bought it 4 years ago with ~220k for $1500.

One week, three countries, 500 miles. This was the first "big" (anything longer than a weekend) trip in the new rig, 2014 taco with 3 inch ProComp lift. First time overland in a truck this size and I definitely learned a lot. These pics are just a few of the raw pics that focus on the rig and...

Hey All! I have these great tie down rails built into the bed of my truck. I am wondering if anyone knows of a company building storage boxes, gas can holder, etc that would have the parts to attach right into the rails. It would be nice to be able to tighten the box itself down vs using...

Simply wanted to introduce BeepBeep. Already build but in need of some TLC and eventually some upgrades I’m sure Found in Milan, Italy and only picked it up last week. Fully kitted and ready expedition truck. Was fun driving it back to the Netherlands through the Alps. 6 litre, 6 cilinder...

So i've been looking for a bed cage for a Tacoma (or really for any midsized truck with a 5' bed) and I haven't been able to find one that I specifically like. the closest one that I have found is the Wilco off road ADV Rack (Found Here - https://www.wilcooffroad.com/shop/adv-sl-bed-rack/) The...

Has anyone here built a truck bed trailer for overlanding ? I built one from a a 1969 Chevy truck. It is used as a water hauler. We live in a class A motorhome in the mountains of north Idaho full time. I have 4 plastic food grade barrels laid horizontal in the trailer. The first 3 are for...

The new build I'm working on is a 2018 RAM 2500 Power Wagon. You can find the most up to date news on the build at Instagram.com/TheSkiingRAM Here's some photos of the truck stock: I've got a ton planned for this build! Stay Tuned!
