I managed to catch up with Bryon Dorr from Exploring Elements to talk about his experience at the 2014 Overland Expo and his new vehicle. The previous time that Bryon was on the show was right after the Vermont Overland Trophy and he mentioned that he was going to be moving out of his Sportsmobile van and into something new but didn’t say what the next vehicle would be. Overland Expo was the big reveal of the new truck. I had been following his progress through the Exploring Elements Facebook page for the last few weeks but the last stages of the build took the EE crew right down to the wire before heading out for the Expo.

Bryon selected a 2001 Dodge Ram extended cab, short bed truck powered by the Cummins diesel and 4WD. During our interview Bryon talks about why he selected this particular vehicle which could be something important to you as you look at selecting an offroad and adventure rig. The other critical component to the EEXP is the prototype XPCamper box that has replaced the truck bed.
Bryon also does a great job of telling stories through pictures. If you’re not following Exploring Elements on Instagram, then you’re missing out!
Check out Exploring Elements or the XPCamper for more info.
