After a quick reset at home, we were back on the road to our next destination. New York City! The girls have been excited about this trip for a long time and we were finally able to put some time aside to make it happen. In our normal fashion, we had to do things differently and we chose to camp at the Liberty Harbor Marina & Rv Park across the Hudson River in Jersey City. We were surrounded by the typical motorhomes that you’d expect in a campground, but there were also a Jeep and a beautif

Nissan is gearing up to roll out what might be its most dialed midsize truck yet, the Premcar-built Navara PRO-4X Warrior. And yeah, as you probably already figured, it’s not coming to the U.S. Which somehow makes it even more appealing. Unveiled alongside the all-new D27 Navara, this Warrior concept is less about flashy show truck vibes and more about what overlanders actually care about. Real upgrades. Real usability. The kind of stuff you’d spec out yourself if you were building a rig

Our trip west to Nevada didn’t start exactly as we’d hoped. Before we could leave Virginia, we needed to wrap things up on our rental home and do our final walk throughs with the property management. This meant we needed a place to stay, since we couldn’t be in the house and all of our things were in a container. So we rented a cute little cottage on the York River. However, cute doesn’t always mean a good idea. Well that’s not fair, it was a great place to stay, just not at the time we did it.

A new year brings new possibilities for travel and adventures in your Jeep or 4×4. Whether you’re new to the offroading lifestyle or a veteran, looking for new places to explore in your vehicle can help you plan for the year. One of the great parts of the offroading lifestyle is the community that comes with it – people who want to get others involved, offer advice, and even take trips together. Let’s look at the difference between offroading and overlanding, talk through gear, and inspire some

Offroading in your Jeep or 4X4 is a lot of fun until you get stranded because of broken mods or gear, and nobody is around to help you! Avoiding common offroading mistakes means you’ll stay safe, and your 4X4 or Jeep will withstand much less unnecessary damage. Not Planning Your Route Before hitting the (off)road, ensure you know where you’re going! It’s not enough to carry a GPS and wing it; what happens if you’re deep in n

So you want to build your truck for off-roading! Cool! So what does that mean? There are a bunch of different kinds of off-roading, and none of them are really built anything like any of the other ones.  When you’re building your truck, what is the difference between an overland build, vs a prerunner build vs a rock crawling build? What makes each one so much better at doing what it’s designed to do? There are a lot of “overlanders” who think they are rock crawling, and there are even more rock

Our latest adventure began in the southern part of the Cohutta Wilderness, at one of the most beautiful lakes in North Georgia—Lake Conasauga.

Camplux Nano 3 Portable Tankless Overlanding Water Heater Review When you spend enough time off-grid, you quickly realize that hot water isn’t just a luxury , it’s a serious quality-of-life upgrade. Whether it’s rinsing trail dust off your hands, washing dishes after a long day, or taking a hot shower before crawling into your rooftop tent, reliable hot water can completely change the camping and overlanding experience. That’s why I was genuinely excited when Camplux sent me thei

For those of us who spend time exploring beyond cell service, a small issue can quickly turn into a big problem. A simple mechanical failure or an injury miles from the nearest town can escalate to a full-blown emergency when there’s no easy way to call for help. That’s why the latest data from Overwatch x Rescue (OxR) caught my attention. In the first half of 2025, vehicle breakdowns ranked among the top five reasons for rescue activations. With overlanding on the rise, it’s clear that

Taking on the Ozark Overlanding Adventure Trail Into the Unknown  There’s something about heading into the unknown with your Jeep, your gear, and a crew of friends that gets your blood pumping. Our Ozark Overland Adventures had been calling my name for a while, and this past April we finally made it happen. Only problem? A massive storm system had just ripped through the area—tornadoes, flooding, the works. It left us wondering if the Ozark Overlanding Adventure Trail was even going to b

While overlanding offers a unique blend of adventure and freedom, nothing can derail the thrill faster than digging through a disorganized mess. Assigning a designated place for each piece of kit leads to a quicker camp setup and teardown and more efficient meal preparation. This allows you to spend more time enjoying a laugh with friends, sitting around a crackling campfire, or choosing a lengthy off-road trail, all while conserving energy and focus for the journey ahead. You likely know by no
