The best overland vehicle for under $5,000 is the 1st generation Toyota Sequoia, I compare it to the 100 series Toyota Land Cruiser and how to overland for cheap. If you’re new to overlanding, self sustaining travel over long distances in remote areas is a decent definition.
What makes a good overland vehicle, #1 - Reliability, if your vehicle isn’t reliable then you can’t overland. Thats why Toyota is one of the most popular overland vehicles despite it being “old technology” compared to Land Rover. The Toyota V8 has been one million miles in the Tundra truck. So reliability should be high on your priority list when choosing an overland vehicle.
#2 - Off road capability - Ground clearance, 4 wheel drive, traction control, locking differentials. You can go lots of places with two wheel drive but for some trails you will need a 4 wheel drive with more ground clearance than an average car. Lastly for some steep trails with lots of articulation you will need a locking differential or a good traction control system. This is where the Sequoia is weak, it doesn’t not have a proper off road 4 wheel drive system for very rugged trails, you will need a rear locker if you want to go up very rutted trails with loose terrain.
#3 - Cargo space - You will need lots of cargo space to carry all of your sleeping gear, food, cooking equipment and whatever else to help you live out of your vehicle and for it to be self sustaining over long distances, think emergency situations with water, food, tires and repairs. This is where the Sequoia shines, it has lots of cargo space, more than the Toyota Land Cruiser.
