What is “OVERLANDING”?

I wonder if people look at my rig and say, hey look at that tool bag overlander lol

it’s ok, I can take it lol

 

I disagree, I watch this this guy because it's relaxing, fun, and since we live in the same State, I try to hit some of the places he goes, these vids are about adventure, and to get out, and it makes him $$$ he also works for iKamper, so of course he's going to promote the stuff. Others I watch are very mechanically inclined, camera, video savvy, and they work for hrs on editing a video..... I bet most can use a screwdriver and are not all nerds living the life!! My .02

 

1950's Buckles... just how old are you ?

 

Good times create weak men, hard times create strong men…. Ya dig?

 

Of course nerds can use screwdrivers. What do you think holds everything into a PC case?

 

but he's got a great dog

 

This is so true its helpful to get some sort of idea when getting started on stuff you may be interested in but its really just.. marketing. "Something new came out?! replace the old one! It's totally worth !"

 

Yeah, once I finally unpack, will put together a slideshow and post over in the camping thread thingy.

Short version, Philly to Michigan, out the U.P., to Badlands, Carhenge, Yellowstone Etc then Glacier then Crater Lake, a bunch of parks on the west side of I5 in Cali, 4x4 into Death Valley at midnite because the roads are closed from some storm, Southern Utah parks, grand canyon, 4 corners, white sands, cadillac ranch, rt 66, shenandoah, home.

 

I saw this guy today. Is this overlanding?

 

[/QUOTE]
that’s getting to camp and realizing you lost your tent maybe 200miles back.

 

To all the "overlanders" this is what you look like to everyone who isn't an Instagram addict.

 

Looks like a good time is about to be had! I think I counted 4 big ass coolers on that trailer.

 

He's taking the long road back from Sturgis. Imagine doing iron mountain with that many coolers in tow.

I had a hell of a time doing that road on four wheels and a pop-up camper.

 

Actually, now that I look at the picture, I have to wonder about the safety chains. How well could you control it if you dropped and dragged a motorcycle trailer?

 

Control is a loose term when the shtf, looking at the pic of that guy my guess is he has been in shittier situations lol,

I will say that it’s a cruiser, so I doubt it changes anything of how it rides lol

 

Spending your money on a 40K plus teardrop, or pull behind camper trailer with a gourmet kitchen set-up replete with a microwave, and not having power to run it out in the back country.

 

Some people just gotta spend day money, Jah!!

sooo, 19 pages. did the hive mind make a final decision as to what overlanding is? of course, other than "your mother"

 

It looked pretty sketchy in front of me at 80mph. The trailer was wobbling like crazy.

 

I want to see what happens when he hits the construction 15 miles up the road. 495 on that stretch is no joke.
