The Nordic Series: Season 5

X Overland is BACK for the all-new Season 5. Since before Covid, the team has been itching to get back across international waters to explore the world. Navigating setbacks, logistics, and an unstable world, this team is determined to make it happen.

With a 2022 Toyota Tundra, 2021 Tacoma, and 2015 4Runner built to live out of, travel, and work from, this fleet of overland-ready vehicles needs to be tested, packed, and shipped in time.

The crew is ready, the trucks are prepped, built, and shipped. All that's left is to go. This team has no idea what they're in for in this 10-part series.
