The 10 Best Overland Vehicles of the 2019 SEMA Show

We can remember when the phrase “roof top tent” drew puzzled stares and a slew of questions. If you didn’t know it by now, overlanding has become the big buzzword in the aftermarket parts industry. That was evidenced this week at the 2019 SEMA Show in Las Vegas where there was a purpose-built rig around every corner and in every hall…and they were ALL amazing.

Overland Expo had the distinct honor to work with OutdoorX4 Magazine and Road House Marketing to identify the 10 Best Overland Vehicles at SEMA Show 2019.

It was difficult to choose just ten, but we think there’s something in here for everyone. Here they are – in no particular order:
