X Overland is BACK for the all-new Season 5! Before Covid struck and locked down most of the world, the team had been itching to cross international waters to continue their journey of overland exploration.
Navigating supply-chain setbacks, logistics nightmares, and a world on edge, the X Overland crew is determined to travel once again.
The new fleet of overland-ready vehicles featuring a 2022 Toyota Tundra, a 2021 Tacoma, and a 2015 4Runner needs to be tested, packed, and shipped out in time to make it to Europe.
The crew is ready. The trucks are built. Now all that’s left is to see if we can get there and start our journey!

We are excited to watch another adventure. Thank you for including us in your life experiences. For your overland rigs, why don't you include killswitches for the extra equipment? It isn't hard to install those switches and keep the vehicle powered up while cutting the power for things not needed.

This is content I love. I WFH and just eat up stuff like this. No frills, no nonsense, no politics, just pure unadulterated exploration. Your content reminds me that there's an entire world out there and I need to see more of it. Love the flag idea - it truly takes a village.

Especially when starting the vehicles in the belgium port and when assembling all team members I was having goosebumps all over. This is just pure adventure cinema IMO. Can't describe how excited I am for the upcoming episodes. With the words of Nicolas Cage in "The Rock", Godspeed to everyone out there, from a German admirer.

idk if someone Finnish (or familiar w the topic) can comment on this, but i've heard and read that Finland is generally not considered part of Scandinavia. i know that its a complex topic and i dont mean to nitpick, but i have had a Finnish person correct me for referring to it as a part of Scandinavia before. they told me it would be correct to use the term Nordic rather than Scandinavian, but idk. i guess it doesnt rly matter for the purposes of this video

@pilsu1979 Жыл бұрын

Hi a Finn here. Yes you are right prober term to call this area where they are travelling would be Nordics. Scandinavian countrys includes only Sweden, Norway and Denmark. When you include on the list Iceland and Finland we are Nordics (Nordics courties). We like to call ourself Nordics.

Oh wow, got overly excited by the fact that you had been to Copenhagen as shown in the very first drone shot at 0:08, that I had to pause and show it to my Norwegian wife, then I pressed play and a big "NORWAY" appeared... But I just want to let you know, that the drone shot is indeed over the S-train network out of Copenhagen Central Station and the intersection seen is between Ingerslevsgade and Skelbækgade for those interested. I'm still gonna watch the whole series despite that little disappointment! :D
