The hum and rattle of the road is the background noise of adventure. You can never chase down all the creaks, and ticks and rattles a truck makes, even in a new one. If you're OCD an have to have everything perfect, you're going to lose your mind. Best you stick to the pavement. But at the end of the trail, when you've been driving and hiking and exploring all day, all weekend, all week, those noises sink into the background and all you hear is the sand and gravel scattering in your wake. You've got a place to stash your water bottle. There's cold drinks in the fridge. The ride is nice and smooth. You're not too concerned about anything going wrong, but if it does, you can deal with that too. You haven't brought anything you don't need because you know that what you don't bring is as important as what you do. Out of your element is your element. You're an adventurer. You're a minimalist. You're an Overlander.

Welcome to installment 2 of the Minimalist Overlander Series. I admit I first thought of this concept as a way to get more views and as a way to justify the budget build on my 3rd Gen 4Runner. But I keep coming back to the same idea when I think about the things I bolt onto my truck and the things I stuff inside it: Do I Really Need This? Is this going to make a difference?

Like when you go backpacking, bike packing or just out for a run. What you bring either allows you to do things, or hinders your ability to do things. So minimalism is about getting the MOST out of what you have, rather than cramming the most INTO what you have.

So my friend Harry Wagner really likes the idea of the Minimalist Overlander. If you know harry and follow his writing and photography, you might have just snorted some beer up your nose. But hear me out. While Harry is a mega off-road enthusiast and has the wheels to prove it, he's been driving and working on his simple 1st Gen Toyota Tundra for a few years now and it REALLY embodies the ethic of minimalism in adventure. I've long admired the Tundra as an adventure vehicle an Harry's in particular, So I'm stoked to bring you the story of what he decided to add to the already great platform.

Suspension

Overlanding is about exploring the Earth, but let's face it, Earth is a rough place to travel if you want to get to the cool places. The one thing that will affect the comfort and performance of a truck more than anything else is the suspension that protects you from the Earth. So that's where Harry spent most of his money. If you're spending a few hours or more cruising down dirt roads the bumps and sways will take their toll on your body and morale. 2.5-inch ADS Remote Reservoir shocks take the sting out of those bumps and don't fade like stock mono-tube shocks will. The Tundra runs these front and rear. "ADS are comparable to Fox and King in my opinion," Harry says. "I have ADS air shocks on my Tracker and Ben [Swain] has them on his Ultra4 car that I race in.  I had Kings on my Tacoma and have Fox on my Ford and my Ram, but the off-the-shelf shocks on my Ram took six months to arrive.  These ADS shocks for my Tundra showed up in under two weeks."
