Started overlanding with a 2020 JL, absolutely love it. Unfortunately a year later I was diagnosed with cancer and life took a really sucky turn. Although we couldn't do any serious trips I decided to build a trailer for the RTT. I'm really slow ate everything I do but its been about a year...

Some Random shots

This guys does a great job expressing his thoughts about overlanding:

I think this is right. Homeless people who look to vehicles as affordable or alternative housing tend to stay close to city centers. Some are certainly venturing out more but in the wilderness it's way more difficult to get food or money. Most are parking in, or on the outskirts, of...

I went to a family reunion where my father and brother in-laws, both with their PhD's, proceeded to tell everyone how much smarter this generation is compared to their grandfathers. They used current day cars as an example. There weren't repair stations and dealerships in every town like there...

People online also feel the need to complain which just might be part of the process of making others fit their definitions. I agree, there's way too much of that today. I'm not sure I'm disagreeing but I don't like to define overlanding based on the vehicle. My wife horse camps. They either...

Thanks for the reply. I try not to define Overlanding based on the hardware. Isn't a Earthroamer just an off road capable motorhome? When I started "Overlanding" I had not even heard that phrase before. I'm a photographer, I started with a Jeep so that I could get to locations not inundated...

Its difficult to gauge the status of Overlanding when no one seems to agree what it actually is. I don't mind sharing what I think but I'm certainly not trying to define it. Maybe a way to discuss the status of Overlanding is by people expressing what they think it is not. For example, I...

Congratulations on the sale.

I'm a little confused. I don't understand why so many people are willing to pay $30K+ for a Pioneer or a Turtleback and not less than half for yours? That appears to be a good deal. Have you listed it elsewhere? Good luck

Nicely done. A lot of innovation.

Nice trailer. Looks like a good deal.

Its tomorrow

Most of the sites that highlight the gear do so because it's easy to quantify, there's a potential to make money and equipment is easy to talk about. Most of the posts are people complaining about it, not much depth to the conversation about what Overlanding is or what it means to people who do...

I'm currently about 2/3 of the way through building my own M416 expedition trailer, If this was for sale when I started my build I would have purchased yours. That's a great price for all that you have on this trailer. Of coarse, I wouldn't have realized that until after I purchased, fabricated...

Thanks for the link for the slides.

I too am new to this so any information you provide is greatly appreciated. I'm not so much "building" a trailer as I am restoring/remodeling it. I have a folded C shape frame and its very rigid but it's also surprisingly heavy. I'm too old to get caught up in "my frame is bigger than yours"...

Fenders look great. I'm not a welder (yet) so I had to go and just had my fenders welded. If you don't mind me asking, where did you get your slides and for how much?

We recently purchased a Jeep built for "Overlanding." This is my third Jeep, built the first for rock crawling - could climb the side of a building but other than fun it was useless, second was a grocery getter - wife loved it (happy wife, happy life), and this one is all about camping. I'm...
