    “an overland trade route”

1. Introduction

The decision to build an overlander happened rather quickly. We have always loved camping, backpacking, hiking and finding secret little patches of earth that we can call our own for a few days. We saw the potential an overlander could have for us so we started our search.

The start. No modifications.

I want to make it clear that my background and experience is all tech. The most experience I have had with cars is filling it with gas. I even took my cars in to a Jiffy Lube or something for oil changes and maintenance. However, I’ve been wanting to get my hands dirty for a while now and learn a two or thing. This overland project was definitely a perfect opportunity!

“Up until this project, the most experience I’ve had with cars has been filling them with gas.”

Without further ado, here we go!
