y'all deserve way more subs! Video production and build outs are awesome. Can't wait for the next season!

[@msoverland]

Thank you! Share the links and send your friends!!!!

[@MrMJJ23]

I think this is great. I for sure can’t afford all these but it shows a lot of the mods in considering so I can decide which one i need

[@rkneegordon6316]

Love the build and adventure. Thanks for allowing me to tag along, an learn something I know nothing about.

[@MarkWucher]

I like the camper! I want something in a flat bed version with wheel wells to lower its center of gravity. Love the side access storage.

[@msoverland]

Thank you, there really isn't that much weight up top. The whole weighs right at 600lbs. Thanks for watching!

[@ovrlxnd]

Who wants a tent full of bugs from cooking? Being able to close the sleeping area is a massive improvement over the Habitat offerings!

[@bewarethesasquatch6248]

Can you provide a cost breakdown for the total build. Parts and cost list

[@gungfuriceboy]

i will do some research on their 'site'...but since i'm here...how much for an 'empty shell' Alu Cab Camper?...Cheers from Canada!

[@jordanyang3066]

Man wish I went on crazy adventures that needs all these upgrades.Not hating at all btw. So far I've done everything in my stock tacoma with a ground tent..lol

[@msoverland]

If it works for you stick with it. Between our show and guide service, we work these trucks pretty hard. Thanks for watching!!!

[@BrentRivers]

I'm thinking the same thing, enu's and light weight tents with the right bags can save quite a bit in weight and storage capacities. But if this is about guiding then people want all the luxuries of a mansion.

[@yanglu9555]

Mountain State overland, can you tell us how much does the camper run for this package and application?

[@grumpy4577]

OK has an Alu-cab that's about the same thing. Starting price is $13,990.00 or close to that.

[@adamharden8676]

Can’t wait to see what’s in store for the new season!

[@msoverland]

Its a busy one! Thanks for watching!

[@ryanjones7235]

ARB Bar work looks spot on!!👌

[@rocketcityfourxfour]

Did a 3 year old really just rip that light out of the bumper?

[@msoverland]

No, its spring loaded so it doesn't break on impact.

[@yanglu9555]

After I saw that I thought to myself his dad going to whoop his butt for pulling that light out. LoL. Incredible

[@silentfox8]

what a fantastic series!

[@HaiNguyen-hh9yt]

What your gas mileage looking like with the camper and your upgrades?

[@texlee84]

I love those canopies and I wish they made them for the domestic HD trucks, but IMHO it looks huge and overwhelming on the Taco. How does it handle at speed around turns and in off camber situations off-road?

[@msoverland]

Hey there! Handles excellent with proper suspension dampening and air bags. You don't even notice it back there. It really does handle like a dream.

[@zackschuette5233]

What brand camper shell is this?

[@msoverland]

That’s an Alu-Cab Khaya Camper!

[@lowflyingdonut]

What bike rack is that in the thumbnail? Does it effect the departure angle?

[@gabrielnivera8423]

Does BSM work with the arb bumper?

[@Brian-RidgeRunner]

really nice build! How many inches did you lift the front/rear? and what size tires did you go with? It looks like a perfect height. thanks for sharing & keep up the awesome work!!

[@57northphoto32]

Superb new truck and build 👍🏻.

[@msoverland]

Thank you!

[@informedcitizen8687]

I probably missed it but what size tires are you running?

[@stevenmills3843]

seen your rigs in Ghent w.v. Amazing set up!

[@msoverland]

Hey there, that was us!

[@Bru946]

1. HAVE MONEY

[@Gantzz321]

or tons of Free gear from sponsors

[@nikkisun5546]

Damn. This build is fairly awesome. Lookin forward to see where it goes.

[@msoverland]

It'll go far this year, thanks for watching!!!!!

[@broncobros2022]

Looks great Jason! Congrats on the new truck

[@msoverland]

Thanks Andy! You're episode is next in the cue!

[@OneManTrail]

Not really loving the LUTs on these recent videos. I think last season’s were much better. Did you guys change up your editing workflow?

[@msoverland]

Thanks for your insights and thanks for watching.

[@Offshore1977]

Great looking rig but I must say the stock TRD OR rims are awesome

[@msoverland]

Thanks for watching! I like the Hutchinson much better ;-) The OR rims are nice too.

[@raulgil7389]

Outfit made to be wild. Magnífico!

[@msoverland]

Thank you and thanks for watching!

[@cesarponce6532]

How much did all of this cost ?

[@aps-c1766]

must be above $50.000 I believe

[@yanglu9555]

There are different pricing for different applications, but I'm thinking and only by looking at it on here the camper along is around $17-21k. Pricing on bumpers and other parts may vary as well. It may not be much but once you add everything up than its a good chunk of money. I've been doing my researches for parts and installers so I can better equips my 2019 4Runner and 2016 Tacoma, CBI front bumper is around $1,700, front wench $800+, rear bumper is $3,200-$3,500 with dual gates, lift kit, suspension and air ride is $5,000+, Ham radios price varies depending on the application and need. But I know that they are not finish equipping this vehicle since they have yet fit MaxTrax, Hi-Lift, and perhaps other accessories. So that everything broken down for you just in case you want to equip your vehicle, buy do know that i have yet factor in the labor charges.

[@jailbreakoverlander]

BROG rocks ,they work

[@msoverland]

Heck yeah!

[@williampizarro7411]

Great ARB commercial

[@davidb.1218]

Have you weighed your rig?

[@MrUpsidedowngaming]

Did you use the firestone extension kit for the airbags? I may need it for my 6" lift I believe.

[@msoverland]

No, we replaced the lines with ARB lines and isolated each bag.

[@williammunny4325]

what brand of camper is that? could not read name on front above cab. weekender?

[@msoverland]

Alu-Cab Weekender (Khaya)

[@mitchel9721]

no need for upgraded uca?

[@ppha7665]

Truck looks sweet! Did u guy end up regear it?

[@stephengregory1655]

What kind of camper is that? Make? Model?

Stephen Gregory I think it's khaya from Alu Cab

[@timjohanson588]

Will this work for the tundra as well?

[@msoverland]

The camper, no unfortunately, it'd be way to small in the back.

[@timjohanson588]

Mountain State Overland I heard talk on expedition portal that there was going to be a version coming out for full size trucks. ETA?

[@jonathan.lavoie]

Have a link for those vent mounts?

[@msoverland]

www.hondogarage.com

[@wolferine6466]

anyone know if/where I can find a camper like this for 2015 Tacoma between $1000-$2000?

[@amtrobia]

Beautiful truck!

[@robfox5562]

What’s the total build cost?

[@TheGregWallace]

How much did all the add on cost?

[@axsb]

lol all vents are useless now

[@msoverland]

Nope, they work just fine with AC. If you sweat like a mule, then you're F'd but I don't have that problem ;-)

[@Gantzz321]

@@msoverland and cooks your electronics in the winter time. Reality is that it is not a good system, you may love it, but it is just mall crawlers grade gear.

[@simonlynchsae]

Any info on the final weight?

[@msoverland]

Camper is an extra 600lbs. that's about all I got for ya.

[@deadbolt9019]

Probably a ton. I added about 2000lbs+ on my jeep just in armor, axles and tires/wheels. It adds up fast!

[@pinay56]

what was the name of the camper on top of the truck?

[@msoverland]

It's marketed as a Weekender camper from Alu-Cab and more commonly called the Khaya camper. The Weekender is an empty version of the Khaya. You can learn at ok4wd.com

[@osielalvarado1921]

Makes no sense to use the elements fridge for an enclosed system. It’s more insulated then the regular ones and bulkier.

[@msoverland]

It works great in our camper because its more efficient, it serves as a seat when not being used and the lid stays up. Just because its in a camper doesn't mean it doesn't get hot. Thanks for watching!

[@davkenrem]

No spare tire?

[@msoverland]

Not yet but its coming.

[@tightlinesgl47]

Great Build Guys, Hope to see it in the near future.? Gene

[@msoverland]

Hi Gene! You're video airs in a couple weeks!

[@gophermaster]

Tacoma short-beds look like trucks with dwarfism.

[@cheboiz1645]

[@quangpham2281]

DOPE!!!

[@hambrgr6283]

A jeep w pick up basically. Overland

[@dennisreynolds6915]

No jeeps suck

[@nate5388]

Minimalists everywhere are vomiting. Jokes aside, is all that stuff really necessary to have a good time in “the great outdoors”? Not trying to hate, you guys seem like a great bunch and it looked like a lot of fun in the shop. The $$$ burnt in this overlanding trend is alarming, though.

[@OMEDFOY]

My wife and I are both "minimalists" at heart, but we also have two children - one of which is a medical shit-show. Given this, we have outfitted our truck similarly (but on a real person's "non-sponsored" budget) for camping. It truly pains me to have to invest so much time, effort, and money into something - just to be able to enjoy travel and adventure...... but our family refuses to let something like a chronic medical syndrome prevent us from exploring and experiencing life. So - long story long - whether you are hiking with a 22L bag and a can of trail mix, or driving around in a $100K sprinter van camper, at least you are out and experiencing life and traveling! Different requirements for the same outcome. Just me two cents.

[@wileym.griffiniv5218]

Vegabonds!!

[@DrZaius57]

Looks great. But damn must it feel heavy.

[@msoverland]

Thank you and not a bit. With the suspension tuned and the airbags set to proper PSI its as smooth as glass an uber responsive. The camper only weighs 600Lbs.

[@nathankoroush7918]

Really sweet, but not for a person on a budget.

[@msoverland]

Depends. Figure out what you want first and work your way to what you feel like you need. Not everyone needs this equipment but we do for our trips and guided expeditions. Thanks so much for watching!

[@hillbillyhansforlife2763]

Man... lots of coin wrapped up in this build.

[@justintime1579]

"Taco pouch"... so basically place to put your shit within a place to put your shit just like the "Tacoma pouch" for the Tacoma compartment thats already there more is not always more fellas lol i see so many people spend hundreds of dollars because they think they need 40 different pouches everywhere in the vehicle believe me i used to be that guy. Allocate that money into useful shit.

[@msoverland]

Justin Time I think the appropriate response is some people appreciate micro-organizing and the only thing that can help that is a therapist but thanks for your insight; we do have an appreciation for a decluttered center console. 🤙🏻

[@marioarchuleta8723]

Well mannered an mature answer .. Good sir .. I tip my hat off to u most the time i cant stay that well mannered

[@headsupstreetstrip901]

Catcher? I hope he doesn’t meet another boy named Pitcher. Not that there’s anything wrong with that.

[@patriotsleepercell4060]

The average person can't afford this!

[@msoverland]

True. We appreciate your comments and thanks for watching!

[@serviceaccount6475]

i never understood camping with this much bullshit. lets take every comfort we can so that its as close to the same as being at home.

[@joshreed7102]

Damn this was just a commercial. Too much money with all these guys nowadays. Disappointed
