THE ULTIMATE OVERLANDVEHICLE Builds

2026 NISSAN FRONTIER PRO 4X

The 2026 Nissan Frontier Pro-4X is already a badass off-road machine straight from the factory. Our goal for the Ultimate Overland Vehicle 2026 is to take that incredible platform and turn it into a highly-capable, modular rig ready for any adventure. In partnership with our build team, every modification has been carefully selected to enhance its functionality as a dual-purpose overlander, highlighted by the versatile Tune Outdoor M1 camper. This rig will be revealed at Overland Expo West 2026, and you won’t want to miss it.

2025 GMC Sierra 2500 HD AT4X AEV Edition

The 2025 GMC Sierra 2500 HD AT4X AEV Edition takes an already formidable heavy‑duty off‑roader and layers on carefully curated upgrades—armor, 2.5‑inch ride‑height lift, 35‑inch tires, modular storage, onboard air, and integrated lighting—to boost trail prowess without dulling GMC’s trademark comfort.

2023 GMC Canyon AT4X

The GMC Canyon AT4X is a phenomenal off-road platform in stock form, so we wanted to focus on taking that great foundation to the next level in terms of capability, ease of use, and overall functionality as a dual-purpose, overland vehicle. Every modification was carefully thought out by the Overland Expo team and our build partner, Peak Suspension, so as not to detract from the premium ride quality, comfort, and drivability that GMC trucks are known for.   

2022 Lexus LX 600

Based upon the all-new 2022 LX600, the Ultimate Overland Vehicle 2023 build debuts first-ever components for the LX600, including those from CBI Offroad, Goose Gear, MagnaFlow, Prinsu, Radflo, and Total Chaos, which were developed in partnership with Overland Expo for this build. The Ultimate Overland Vehicle vision was brought to life over hundreds of hours by the Official Build Partner, MULE Expedition Outfitters.

2022 gmc SIERRA 1500 AT4X

Starting with the venerable 2022 GMC Sierra 1500 AT4X, we’ve outfitted it with the best overlanding gear on the market today.  Stay tuned here as Overland Expo’s staff of seasoned overlanders take the rig on their own adventures throughout the year capturing stories and demonstrating just how good the AT4X and our ultimate gear is on the trail.

TOYOTA 4RUNNER

TRD OFF-ROAD

Thanks to the rise of overlanding, 4×4 trucks and SUVs are more popular than ever before. The handful of factory overland-ready rigs on the market are supported by hundreds of aftermarket parts makers that can transform a capable stock rig into a trail-conquering overland machine.

Overland Expo West is where real rigs show up. It’s exactly where @classicoverland belongs.

We build Defenders to be driven. Long miles, rough terrain, real ownership. Every build is designed around how you actually travel, not how it looks parked.

Our Signature Series is a full body-off, down-to-the-nuts-and-washers restoration with modern drivability built in. The Warthog Series is a true refurbishment. Simple, durable, and built to be used.

If you’re at Expo West, come find us at Q70. Step inside and experience what a Defender feels like when it’s built with purpose.

Built for the way you move. This is the Defender, done right.
