It used to feel like half the fun was figuring things out for yourself, building custom solutions, modifying your rig, and finding creative ways to make your setup work without spending a fortune. But these days, it seems like more and more of the overlanding world revolves around expensive gear, turnkey builds, and buying your way into the hobby.In this episode of the All Things Overlanding Podcast, I'm digging into whether we're losing some of the creativity, resourcefulness, and hands-on problem-solving that made overlanding so appealing in the first place.Don't get me wrong, I love cool gear as much as anyone, and there's nothing wrong with buying quality equipment. But have we gotten to a point where convenience and consumerism are replacing the satisfaction of building something yourself? And does having a fully outfitted rig really make someone a better overlander?I'm sharing my thoughts on the evolution of overlanding, the rise of expensive plug-and-play setups, and why I think the DIY mentality still has an important place in this community.I'd love to hear your thoughts! Do you think the DIY spirit of overlanding is disappearing, or is it just evolving?

Are you building an overlander… or just a really expensive mall crawler?In this episode, I’m talking about something I think a lot of us in the overlanding community have probably wondered at some point. We spend thousands of dollars modifying our vehicles with lifts, tires, armor, recovery gear, lights, storage systems, campers, and all kinds of other upgrades—but are we actually building for the adventures we take, or are we just building the image of an overland rig?I’ll talk about the difference between modifying your vehicle based on real-world experience versus buying gear because it looks cool, everyone else has it, or social media convinced us we need it. I’ll also get into why I don’t necessarily think there’s anything wrong with having a “mall crawler”—as long as we’re honest about what we’re building and why.Ultimately, overlanding should be about getting out, exploring, and having adventures—not checking boxes on a build sheet.So take a look at your own rig and ask yourself: Mall crawler or overlander—which one are you building?Want to learn more about the IFAK medical kit I'm running?

In this episode, I’m diving into some of the debates and personal preferences that seem to come up over and over again in the overlanding world. Does your truck need to stay clean, or is being covered in dirt part of the experience? Should all your gear have a permanent home on your rig, or is a modular setup better? And are you someone who plans and pre-stages everything ahead of a trip, or are you throwing gear in the truck at the last minute?I’ll share where I land on each of these, but more importantly, talk about why I don’t think there’s necessarily a “right” way to do any of it.And finally, I’m tackling one of my favorite debates: overlanding vs. car camping. Does the label really matter? In my opinion, if you’re getting out, exploring, camping, and having adventures with your vehicle, call it whatever you want.Let me know where you fall on these debates in the comments—I’m curious how differently everyone approaches overlanding!A huge thanks to my partners:Nitto (my Terra Grappler G3 tires are great for midwestern winters, wet weather, and all terrain use):  https://bit.ly/41EJhbQZ1 Off Road (pretty much the spot for all things Nissan):  https://www.z1offroad.comAll Dogs Offroad (amazing Nissan specific suspension options which I run on my truck):  https://www.alldogsoffroad.comICECO Fridges (the best fridges for the money, hands down-Use code ALLTHINGSOVERLANDING for 12% off your order):  https://icecofreezer.com/ALLTHINGSOVERLANDINGMoon Fab Awning (super flexible, non-permanently mounted awnings for all kinds of applications.

In this episode, I’m asking a question I’ve been thinking about for a while: Is the overlanding boom finally over?Overlanding exploded in popularity over the last several years, but lately it feels like things are changing. Social media is packed with overlanding channels, brands are sending free gear to seemingly everyone, expos have gotten bigger and more commercialized, and sometimes it feels like simply putting the word “overland” on a product automatically makes it more expensive.I share my thoughts on where the hobby is today, whether overland expos still have the same appeal, how influencer marketing and free gear are affecting reviews, and whether we’re paying an unnecessary “overland tax” for the gear we buy.I don’t think overlanding is going away—but I do wonder if we’ve reached the other side of the massive boom.What do you think? Has overlanding peaked, or is the hobby just evolving?

Some overlanding gear is nice to have... and some completely changes the way you travel. In this video, I'm sharing the five upgrades I regret not buying sooner after years of overlanding and camping off-grid.From staying connected with a WeBoost, to the confidence of having a winch, to the comfort and convenience of my canopy camper, fridge, and REIGN Outdoor 270 awning, these are the pieces of gear that have made the biggest difference in my adventures. I'll explain why each one earned a permanent place in my setup, how they've improved my trips, and who I think they're worth buying for.If you're building out your own overland rig or trying to decide where to spend your money first, I hope this helps you avoid some of the mistakes I made and invest in the gear you'll appreciate every time you head off the pavement.Here are links to everything I mentioned in the video if it helps!WeBoost Overland: https://amzn.to/4z16lQCReign Outdoor Awning: https://reignoutdoor.com/products/reign-270-fr-awning?variant=47037304996066Openroad 3S Winch: https://openroad4wd.com/products/openroad-13-500lbs-winch-with-synthetic-rope-panther-series-3s?aff=47Setpower RF20 Fridge: https://collabs.shop/uoaosiWant a canopy camper?

In this episode, I'm taking a look at one of the biggest trends I've seen in the overlanding world over the past year: the rapid rise of Alibaba campers. It feels like everywhere you look, more people are importing these campers directly from China—but are sales really exploding, and if so, why?I'll share what I've observed as both an owner and someone who's been closely following the market, including what's driving the demand, how pricing compares to traditional brands, and why more people are willing to take a chance on importing one themselves. We'll also talk about whether this is just a passing trend or if Alibaba campers are permanently changing the truck camper industry.If you've been wondering whether the hype is real, considering buying one yourself, or just want to understand why these campers seem to be everywhere lately, this episode is for you.Want one for yourself?

If you've spent any time shopping for overlanding gear, you've probably noticed something: add the word "overland" to almost any product, and the price seems to jump overnight. In this episode, I'm diving into what I like to call the **Overlanding Tax**—where it shows up, why it exists, and whether it's ever actually worth paying.I'll break down some of the biggest offenders, from rooftop tents and shovels, to vehicles and other things that can quietly drain your budget. More importantly, I'll share where I think spending extra really does get you better quality and where you might be paying more for branding than performance.Whether you're just getting into overlanding or you've been building your rig for years, this episode is all about helping you make smarter buying decisions, avoid unnecessary expenses, and focus your budget on the upgrades that truly improve your adventures.What do you think is the biggest example of the Overlanding Tax? Let me know in the comments—I’d love to hear where you think the industry gets it right... and where it gets a little carried away.Here are some of the budget priced options I talked about in the episode:Here's a link to the Alibaba page for this camper (use code ALLTHINGSOVERLANDING147 to get 2 items free, worth up to $170 or mention All Things Overlanding to your rep): https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/Truck-Camper-Custom-Hard-Shell-Rooftop_1601727228413.html?spm=a2747.product_manager.0.0.380971d2UHgNseBudget Shovel: https://amzn.to/3Qhh3B3Setpower Fridge: https://amzn.to/3QSspvsHest Mattress: https://amzn.to/4faagCyWhite Duck Sleeping Bag: https://whiteduckoutdoors.sjv.io/c/2836542/1823262/21733?iratid=41039&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwhiteduckoutdoors.com%2Fcollections%2Fsleeping-bag%2Fproducts%2Fsleeping-bag-0-f

Have you ever wondered whether overlanding is actually better than taking a traditional vacation? After spending years exploring both, I wanted to sit down and compare the two to see which one really offers the better experience.In this episode, I'm breaking down the pros and cons of overlanding versus traditional travel, including the real costs, flexibility, comfort, adventure, stress, and the kinds of memories each one creates. Whether you're dreaming about building an overland rig or you're perfectly happy booking flights and hotels, I think you'll find there isn't a one-size-fits-all answer.I'll share my personal experiences, the things I love about both styles of travel, and why my perspective has changed over the years. If you've ever wondered whether overlanding is worth the investment—or if a traditional vacation might actually be the better choice for you—this episode is for you.A huge thanks to my partners:Top Oak (amazing roof top tents and awnings for budget prices):  https://topoakoverland.com/?sscid=51k9_mt1ba&Nitto (my Terra Grappler G3 tires are great for midwestern winters, wet weather, and all terrain use):  https://bit.ly/41EJhbQZ1 Off Road (pretty much the spot for all things Nissan):  https://www.z1offroad.comAll Dogs Offroad (amazing Nissan specific suspension options which I run on my truck):  https://www.alldogsoffroad.comICECO Fridges (the best fridges for the money, hands down-Use code ALLTHINGSOVERLANDING for 12% off your order):  https://icecofreezer.com/ALLTHINGSOVERLANDINGMoon Fab Awning (super flexible, non-permanently mounted awnings for all kinds of applications.

The Nissan Xterra has been gone for years, but if the rumors and reports are true, its return could have a bigger impact on the overlanding world than most people realize. In this episode, I'm taking a deep dive into what a new Xterra could mean for overlanders, off-road enthusiasts, and anyone looking for an adventure-ready vehicle that doesn't cost a fortune.I'll talk about why the original Xterra became such a beloved platform, how the overlanding landscape has changed since it disappeared, and what Nissan would need to do to make the new version a serious contender against vehicles like the Toyota 4Runner, Tacoma, Bronco, and Jeep Wrangler. We'll also discuss whether there's still room in today's market for a rugged, purpose-built SUV and why I think the return of the Xterra could be exactly what many outdoor enthusiasts have been waiting for.Whether you're a longtime Xterra fan, a Nissan Frontier owner, or just someone who loves talking about overlanding vehicles, this episode should spark some interesting discussion.What do you think? Would you consider a new Xterra for your next adventure rig?
