There is something inherently alluring in an off-road capable vehicle. As human beings, we’ve always wanted to explore the unknown. It’s in our nature. And off-road vehicles are the best way to do that. They provide you with comfort, go-everywhere capability, and in some cases, a place to spend the night during your Overlanding adventure.
Like most things, capable off-roaders were born from the military. Later, though, they became the symbol for adventurous people. Today, SUVs are the de-facto vehicles for the modern human. And although most of them lost the tough off-road capabilities of the past, some models still carry the heritage. Let’s revisit those, along with their forbearers in this in-depth off-road history lesson.
