"The term overlanding originated in Australia during the turn of the 20th century, and had to do with moving livestock over long distances "over land". But here in America, the term has been around since the late 1800s, and the days of the stagecoach. When our pioneers took part in the grueling, self-sufficient push Westward in wagons, they often used famous routes like the Oregon and California Trails. These trails westward were called "overland trails". So, the term "overlanding" still means what it did during the time of the Old West. It simply means "self-reliant, self-supported, vehicle-based adventure travel to remote locations, usually in a high-clearance, 4×4 vehicle, emphasizing the journey and exploration of under-explored territories over a fixed destination.""
"Creating a Niche RiG'd Supply's HQ is located in Orange, California, which is local to me. So, I've been able to visit their shop a few times. It's a small operation run by a dedicated crew of like-minded people. Let's meet the team: Luke Wronski (Founder & CEO) Ryan Ritchey (Co-founder & COO) Jason Denney (Co-founder & CMO) Eric Pyle (Head of Engineering) They make a quality product that is built to take a beating, like the RambleSwing. Which, in my opinion, is hands down the best hitch rack swingout on the market. Period."
