Choosing the Perfect Overlanding Vehicle for Your Next Adventure – Here Are The Top Picks For Trail’d!

Overlanding, an ultimate fusion of off-roading, exploration, and camping, offers an exhilarating way to experience the great outdoors. This adventure will surely test your limits and demand thorough planning.

Preparation is key to make sure that everything runs smoothly on your overlanding trip. The vehicle, the trail and the supplies are all important.

One of the most crucial factors to consider is securing a reliable water source, which can be quite a challenging aspect to plan effectively. Loading your vehicle with spare water can lead to an off-balance load – an issue you’d want to avoid.

You are always battling against having the water you need and making sure that the vehicle is not overloaded. This allows you to tackle the trails with more confidence and it also means that you are less likely to have water tanks dropping that were not stored properly.

In this blog post, we will run through our top six recommended vehicles for overlanding and discuss how our Trail’d tank pairs well with these options to ensure a consistent water supply whenever you need it. Let’s get started!
