3 Things I Love About Overlanding

In this week's episode, I'm going to be talking through the 5 vehicle modifications I have grown to love over the last 5 years of Overlanding. Sometimes you modify a vehicle in a certain way and it doesn't work out, which I'll cover in next week's episode. But in this one, I'm going to talk about the 5 mods I'll always make to all future builds.

In this week's episode of the podcast, I'm talking about the 5 pieces of gear that I no longer use much if at all on Overlanding trips. What stuff didn't make the cut? I'm going to focus on the things I thought I would use more, but don't. Things like my awning, leveling blocks, my Ignik Propane Firepit, a shovel, and water filtration systems. Check out the full episode for all the details and explanation as to why I think those things lost their place in my gear and drop your thoughts below if you're on YouTube.

In this week's episode, I wanted to talk a bit about how I'm falling down the rabbit hole of "prepping" and also why it works really well with overlanding. If you aren't aware of what prepping is or think it's just about the nuclear apocalypse, there's a lot of positivity that comes from being prepared in the event of getting stuck offroad or while remote and a lot of the gear from overlanding carries over to prepping as well. So, check out the full episode to hear why overlanding and prepping go hand in hand and how I'm repurposing some of my old overlanding gear to get more prepared for something like getting stuck or breaking down while overlanding.

In this week's episode of the podcast, I'm going to talk a bit about how people, regardless of their budget for buying rigs or gear, are out of control and actively discouraging people from wanting to join the hobby of overlanding. This isn't an indictment or a scolding, but rather a discussion of how it's happening, some of the ways that we're allowing it to happen, and ultimately, how I think we can come together to fix it.

In this week's episode, I'm going to talk a bit about the real costs of Overlanding. It's something I think a lot of people underestimate, but the dollars can add up quickly if you're not careful and aware of falling into some of the common traps with buying Overlanding gear and vehicles. I'll walk you through the importance of deciding what type of trips you're going to take, which vehicle you want to build out, and then how much comfort and convenience you want in your build. I'll give you some real world numbers based on my experience so you can get a better idea of the true cost of Overlanding. Check out the full episode for all the info!
