Throw a tent and some gear in any 4WD with all terrain or better tires, and you have an overlander. We don't need a tray and canopy on the back to be identified as an overlander in the US. So, all those Jeeps and pick ups you drive by on the way from Oregon to Virginia were potentially overlanders, tourers, campers or what ever you want to call it.
Nice fireside discussion around the cultural and geographical differences between overloading/ offloading/ Camping here in the US and Australia. Some great insights. Would love to see this same conversation with Africans as well and how they get out and away for civilization. I recently had a great, random conversation with someone from South Africa where he recounted several trips around several African countries and environments.
I’ve been overland my whole life as a hunter. Overland point b is hopefully where I source my meat. Does this fit your definition of overland travel? I see them haul their tinny for fishing trips also over there.
@@msoverland touring would be maybe point b,c and more. Like multiple destinations on a vacation. Maybe I’ll go here or maybe over here and not have such a strict mission. Overland would be more singular? Almost like a bold statement saying hell or high water I will end up at point b no mater what. Or is that building a silo too??? Lol
