We picked up our Jeep Gladiator today! May 31, 2021. We purchased it through Autonation Chrysler Jeep Arapahoe near Denver, Colorado. Our salesman was Mason Shevland. Great guy to work with by the way. Everything went really smooth, in and out in two hours. I got to drive it first! It was so...

Welcome to Expedition Portal. I can see you just joined on Tuesday. Gilroy, California is known as the garlic capital of the world. Just pulling into town you can smell the cloves of garlic that permeate everything in the city. Also famous for the Gilroy Garlic Festival which unfortunately was...

We've officially decided to delay our departure so that we can participate at Overland Expo Mountain West and Overland Expo West. We'll be at both events and we'll have our Gladiator available for folks interested in taking a look. We'll be speaking at both events as well. Details to come as I...

Did you make it to South Texas? Heading out to Padre Island National Seashore? ~ Eric

An excerpt from some thoughts that I had written a few weeks ago in Arizona for anyone interested in reading my drivel: "The refreshing and cleansing power of the common shower has not enveloped my body for the past six days. It doesn’t bother me as it would most of my fellow Americans...

Thought Journal 003 - 04/08/21 So much has happened since our last update. Where to begin? On March 7th, we started our lives as full-time overlanders living out of our Jeep as a family of 3. We left Texas and headed to Southern Arizona with a stop in Las Cruces, NM along the way. Here in...

That's awesome! I look forward to hearing what your thoughts are with your unit as well! Any chance you'll be out west this spring/summer? Would love to connect if you are. As far as suspension, the answer is yes. But we don't know what we'll be doing exactly until we know the weight of...

Well, we've done it. We moved into our Jeep on March 7th. We are officially full-time overlanders on the road. We said goodbye to Brittany's parents and headed up from Corpus Christi to Bastrop, Texas. Once there, we popped the tent on a friends ranch for the night of the 7th. We enjoyed good...

Having owned a Winnebago View, we completely understand both the benefits and drawbacks you'll have with such a platform for such a journey. But the most important thing is that you are doing it and you know how you want to do it. Bravo! I'm sure if we are on a similar timeline that there is a...

Yesterday and today have been inventory day. We've emptied literally everything out of the Jeep. And I do mean everything. We use an app called Evernote for our Master Overlanding Packing List. Our list is divided by location in the vehicle. Once inventoried, we put everything back into the...

That is what this lifestyle is all about. Improvising, adapting, and overcoming. Bravo. Glad y'all are back safely and that you grew in wisdom and experience as adventurers. ~ Eric

Right on guys! Just watched your intro video. Wishing you both fun and safe travels. Love the photo with the pyramids and a bit jealous of that experience. Hope you are able to enjoy it to its fullest despite circumstances. ~ E

Neil these mini-interviews are great. Thank you for sharing this. I'll head to YouTube and give you a like for this. Getting all of these folks together to share their insight and thoughts was solid. Hope you don't take offense, but a bit of constructive criticism. The opening "intro" was not...

This is all great you guys! Loving your adventure and everything that it entails. Thanks for sharing it! ~ E

Woke up to a random email today that we were nominated for (and selected) for an award in the overlanding space. And it's actually a legit thing. Had no idea it existed, but humbled that one of our followers nominated us for it. Apparently the announcement is taking place on Monday. It's these...

No worries. The only reason I got in early is that I'm Type 2 Diabetic and in Texas that qualified me to get in early for the vaccine. My much younger (and healthier) wife has not even gotten her first round yet, she's actually last on the list according to the state of Texas because of her...

After 7 years of full-time travel we've finally launched our YouTube channel today. For anyone that might have interest you can find it here: Hourless Life YouTube Also I'm getting round two of the COVID Vaccine tomorrow so there's that. This is a good thing as we're guessing many countries...

Just finished watching another Dirtsunrise episode with Brittany for inspiration.

Thank you Dibber. We definitely consider ourselves blessed to live this lifestyle, and humbled by those who have gotten behind us. But it wasn't always this way and we've worked diligently to get this point. If you are interested in our full uncensored story, you can find it here: The Long Game...

Announcing our newest partnership! Today, we are thrilled to announce our partnership with Goose Gear, the leading storage fabricator for overland vehicles. I think most people in Expedition Portal are familiar with Goose Gear, if you are not, they create cabinets, deck plates, and seat deletes...
