I'm a chimney sweep and am considering a used Prius now that I have a power sweep system and no longer need ladders.LOL mine was the opposite. I lowered it and ran 17" Centerline wheels. It was terrible off-road but handled well on-road and still got 48mpg hauling land management gear. Nothing quite like watching a rancher drive by slowly in his F250 to watch you repairing a fence out of the back of a Prius. They started calling my car the King Ranch edition whenever I rolled into the farm supply store for materials.
The only thing I dislike about a Prius is the lack of gtound clearance... but that is an easy fix.

This is a long long thread but I would just like to chime in and say that before getting my Outback I did some epic trips with my Jetta that a lot of people would be jealous of and it did great, granted sometimes I would just need to send it and hope I didn't rip the bumpers off but it was always fun!
Don't get hung up on what other people do.

Great now I need to get another Jetta cause that's amazing. Unfortunately mine didn't look like that.

Lets all just admit it were all fakes.
Im just a offroader who happens to camp sometimes while offroad. I dont camp more than 2 days, im not traveling across the country off pavement for months at a time. I dont let overlanding define my identity.

Speak for yourself. This person is super prepared for anything! I think this is the rig that won last Camel Trophy.

That guys just homeless likely recently divorced. In all honesty ive seen cheap people usually renters move this way. Might even be that guy who uses the forrest rds as his dump going to drop all that trash deep in the woods.
i highly doubt it....i've NEVER seen a guy go thru a divorce and end up with that much stuff!

I think that shopping cart is made by ARB. I’m def adding it to my ‘needs’ list now that I’ve seen someone else with one.

Do you even overland bro? Just sayin’!
I have a feeling that this rig has gone further than others 10 times more capable.

Lets see something like that that isnt photoshopped. Im sure someone has to be willing to put a prius body on a jeep just cuz.... down here in texas it aint uncommon to see lifted camaros and el caminos ive even seen a 65 mustang lifted here. But ive never seen them off road it is more the idea of i have a small pecker so look at me or look what i can do im a redneck.
