As with anything else, it's paralysis by analysis. Thousands of channels, thousands of opinions, thousands of gear lists. Constantly comparing yourself to the 1% that are insta famous with stuff you'll never have. On top of that, 90% of it is sponsored content and one giant commercial. "Hey guys check out this potato chip bag clip that has totally redefined my car camping." Get out of here with that crap. Get off social media, learn things for yourself, figure out what you need.

It's another Gimmick for the same game........."Camping " People are fundamentally "Sheeple ", they'll follow whoever for whatever. Funny thing about the "Overland " People is, once they Visit a KOH off-road event, the ideas start slipping towards the "Pre-Lander" phase of off-roading. That's why suspension parts are so hard to get these days. It's all mid-travel to long-travel shocks and related components now. Desert Camping and PreRunners, Winter through Summer ☀️
@quicksendtaco Күн бұрын
Haha oh yeah KOH and "Overlanding" are very VERY different. KOH will make you feel very small. But that's what I mean you don't even really need new suspension but for me I like to tinker and modify things. Comes down to want vs need within your means.

My particular truck is built as an "adventure truck" and is outfitted to support my abandoned mine exploring and KZfaq filming. It's a diesel SuperDuty with a shell on the back. Folks often comment about the desert striping, but that is inevitable with the places I go. I did build a bunk in back so I can camp on-site. Next, I would like to add an awning since I live in the desert and shade is always welcome. I tend to be quite pragmatic about adding parts to the truck. I add what I find I need and try not to spend too much money on eye-candy. LOL.

@OutdoorAdventureTV Күн бұрын
I suspect you are correct about passing "peak interest" in overlanding, but there are many positives that came out of it. Gear progressed, KZfaq channels created, companies produced innovative products. Some of that will naturally fall by the wayside as popularity reaches a more normal level. I don't criticize folks when they have an all rigged out overland truck, that obviously never goes off road. If that truck puts a big smile on their face every time they climb onboard, then good for them. 🙂

I think folks are just confused on overlanding, camping, off-roading, rock climbing, and all the other things. The very definition to overland is just travel a long distance over land. Anything else, is extra. Camping is camping, offroading is offroading, ect. I see overlanding the car version of hiking. I just think folks are realizing tents and crazy gear isn't required to overland, nothing is stopping someone exploring remote places for 100-200 miles and then finding a hotel. It's what you make it, who cares what others believe it is. It's your adventure, not theirs.

I wish a company like COBB or this tune company would come out with a tuner or accessport like they did for the subaru wrx sti but for tacomas. What sucks with this company is theyre never local.

This one is actually hyper custom based on a lot of variables like tire size, gears, weight of the vehicle and throttle response preference. These are VF tuning certified though which means they pass smog and won't void warranty like COBB. They are also in every state: overlandtailor.com/retailer-locations

Overland is just camping. 😂 Driving around with a tent on your truck and gear 365 days a year is not practical. Don’t need crazy suspension to go camping offroad 1-2 weeks a year.

@@quicksendtacoAs a backpacker and camper, that’s a terrible suggestion hahaha, backpacking isn’t an entry level hobby for most people. Even a cheap backpacking setup is thousands, thousands more if you want light/ultralight gear to be under 35-30 pounds total. It’s worth it for those that live for outdoors, and for folks like me who also use my backpacking gear for vehicle based camping since it’s all compact. Cheapest way to get outside is save up a few hundred bucks, and go to Walmart. Coleman or Teton sports gear for everything if you don’t even know if you are a ‘camping person’. Also, most camping people aren’t seasoned enough to take it that step further (hehe) and be all alone in the mountains with the coyotes and no eco flow fridge in the back with IPA’s and steak dinners.

Didn't you say something about overlanding this? And did lots of tire research? And still you chose to run a flimsy, lightweight 3 ply balloon tire instead of a durable, 10 ply 33" with the unbreakable Bilsteins up front? This isn't an overlanding build, this is a compensator. A stock Taco is a better overlanding vehicle than this thing. Dependability is paramount when overlanding, and you explained some reasons why big ass tires are gonna break shit, and you decided that breaking shit is the way to go overlanding? 🤪🤪 Wow, dude you must REALLY like how those tires LOOK. You wouldn't go through all that BS and EXPENSE of setting yourself up for flat tires and broken control arms and wear & tear on your drivetrain, all on top of those other problems you mentioned, for that measly extra 1/2" of clearance over the 33s, surely. You wanna good overlanding truck, you just slap on the Bilstein 5100s, level out the rear and go. You don't spend a boatload of money to increase the potential of breakdowns and flat tires!
