Sometimes less is more! Having a simple rig for overlanding can be so freeing. There's less to worry about, and your gear doesn't make it into your vehicle unless it's absolutely necessary. In this video, I do a rig walk around of my minimalist overloading setup. Some items are my DIY inventions while others are the highest quality gear that money can buy. I will review my storage system, sleep setup, water storage, propane, battery and refrigeration system. If you saw my Jeep on the road, at first glance, you'd never think it was ready to go on a multi-day camping trip and capable of keeping up with more built-out rigs that have roof top tents or perhaps overloading trailers. Is this car camping? Or is this overloading? You be the judge! If minimalism is your jam, this video might be perfect for you! (Episode 32 - 7/22/23)

Just an FYI for everybody: as long as those green propane tanks are empty they are 100% recyclable. Pull the pressure relief to drain the last bit of propane to atmosphere and throw them in your blue bin 👍🏼

@darrelljacobjr2120 4 месяца назад

Why throw them away? I just use a refill coupling and a scale. Weigh a new full one, then bleed propane from a 20# tank into the smaller green tank, when it weighs as much as a new one, stop.

Great video from a 'minimalist' overloading perspective. After selling my rooftop tent, I now have very similar setup in my Bronco Sport Badlands with fridge in the driver side back, storage on a custom built shelf and DeepSleep mattress (which is just awesome) on the right side with passenger seat pushed forward. Great minds think alike.

Last month I finished up a 2.5 month trip thru the west and SW as I relocated from Seattle area to SE FL (for family reasons). I appreciate the minimalist setup as I did my trip in a Subaru Outback and camped out every night except once when in Corvallis visiting my daughter. I'm going to get a 24 Rubicon X early next year as I want to continue to explore and found there were so many places that I couldn't get to before as they required 4WD and high clearance vehicles. Your setup has given me lots of good ideas of how to kit out my rig. thanks.

I also like that idea because of the information it gives off to other people. Nothing screams. I have a lot of expensive equipment like a fully kitted out Toyota Tacoma versus a vehicle that looks completely average on the outside, but has everything you might need on the inside A lot of very expensive over landing gear gets snatched because of high profile vehicle sitting in parking lots or out in front of someone’s house. …… I have a 1998 jeep Cherokee and have everything in it. I need for an over landing trip and for roadside repairs and helping other people who are stranded, etc on the outside. The only modifications are a front and rear bumper that look quite OEM with a winch attached and I have limo tint on all the rear windows, you would never know that there’s about $4000-$7000 worth of equipment in the back 😎✌️

It shouldn’t interfere with my Dominion Hi-lift Jack roll-bar mount. The Ignik Growler kit is what I’ve been looking for. All of the products you are using are high quality.

Hey, it is a pretty nice setup. Everybody loves good useable gear that lasts a lifetime, so this is probably the best way to keep our footprints small, live out our overlanding dreams, and beside this, appreciate the moments and experiences and people you meet, more than the gear. Which i think is a really beautiful way to combine everything perfectly.

That is a nice set up. I just bought a used Deepsleep full size mattress. Can't wait to try it out. I also believe in "buy once, cry once".

@TrailNewbie 3 месяца назад

Awesome! Ya, I have the full size one and I sued that for the first couple years before changing to the solo mat. Main benefit of the solo mat is the insulation inside (foam) and I feel like it’s manufactured a little better. I had to patch some leaks on my full size mat. No biggie, but one trip the full size mattress started going flat in the middle of the night. It was actually very comfortable and squishy, but not ideal. Thank you for watching and for your comment!

My minimalist pack in my truck with a cheap camper shell, was just a pullout bed cushion, two sheets, one heavy blanket, a pack of waters, a colmen stove two pans and utensils for it, and just an ice chest that fits the food for the days, that’s minimalism lol didn’t need a sink, my little sister with autism showed us a random trick she came up with to wash her hands and all she did was set a water bottle on its side and slightly open the cap and let it drip off the tail gate and that saved us a few gallons lol kept our clothes inside our gym bags in the front seats since we ain’t leaving anytime soon, and our firearms within reach, very easy camping stuff, don’t need to spend a a couple hundred bucks on a few organizing bags and fancy gadgets to do stuff that we don’t really need.

@dadventuretv2538 10 месяцев назад

We have a similar philosophy- everything inside. I have a kid with me though, so my rig had to be designed around sleeping 2 and carrying two mountain bikes and all of my mtb gear AND all the other offroad recovery gear and camping stuff inside. So for me it’s an Alucab with a RTT. Man the RTT is so good when you’re rolling a different campsite every night - the Wedge style is 30 secs up and maybe 2 mins down. And I like sleeping up- its like being in a tree fort when you were a kid. Being able to sleep inside your Jeep is awesome, just doesnt work with 2 people and bikes. I have the same Front Runner utensils roll- I love the fact that you can hang it. I have a portable toilet (cause I figure I’ve *#+% in a hole in the woods long enough to have earned a bit of comfort when nature calls LOL) and it’s nice being able to put it in the truck bed away from the cabin and where we sleep. Although it’s pretty well sealed, just something about having it away. I pack it in last so it is easy to get to in an emergency and it comes out first at camp. Been looking at those lights. Right now I have these Revel Gear LEDs on a wire that work well- one strand on each side of Gladiator plugged into battery in tent on one end and toed to tree on other. Lights up campsite well, takes about 2 mins per strand to set up, and if I hear something at night I can turn em on from the tent. Still might get what you have for even easier set up. Im all about not too much, and what I do bring has to be simple and quick setup and tear down. Have fun out there. 🤙

@TrailNewbie 10 месяцев назад

Great vid Greg! Got several good ideas from this one.. I love your simplicity but for me, the efficiency of your setup is what hits home. I need to make mine more efficient. While I would like the ability to sleep inside my rig, I take George everywhere I go.. he's a VERY large Great Pyrenees. We tried sharing a full-size DeepSleep once and it sucked. Hence the rooftop tent and George now has the entire back to himself lol! When he gets up it shakes the rig pretty good but that's another story...

I went a super similar setup with my gear. I've got the same shelf, same tailgate table, same dometic water solution x 2, and put a fridge in the same location. I run the same Ignik pit but with smaller bottle and put it upright on top of the vector. Interesting idea with the roto water. I built a custom platform and keep front runner packs under those. I don't sleep in the Jeep because I am usually out with my family of 3 and a small dog, but I love your solutions! I'll have to look at mine more closely to see if I can do this easily for solo trips.

@TrailNewbie 10 месяцев назад

Oh! That’s so awesome! Funny how similar the setups are. Ya, I might switch to the 5lb Ignik. So I can store it upright in the shelf. I love this setup, it’s so good for 1, when I take my boys out, I use a tent that attaches to the back of the Jeep. 😁😁

Very nice video of your set up. You have a very nice set of toys to camp with. You still have dropped a fair amount of coin for the system, but it is very nice gear. If you work a little on the storage legs and get them to splay out 5 to 10 degrees, you will be shocked how much stability that offers. Keep up the nice work.

@TrailNewbie 10 месяцев назад

Thank you! Indeed, it has been a decent outlay of $$ for my setup. Vehicle aside - I bought much of this during/around my 40th birthday. So, I was going a little hog-wild on some of the gear purchases (in terms of price). At the same time ... the gear I bought has to fit just right in the Jeep, so at some point I have certainly had to spend more for things that are sized just right and fit perfect. Regarding the legs for the Front Runner boxes - that is great advice. I'll look into that a bit. I'm not 100% sure I could do that - but I'll start consiering a modification for sure. Always improving!! Thank you for your comment - I appreciate every single one!
