Black Dirt Overland takes its name from New York's Black Dirt Region — a place shaped by hard work, ingenuity, and generations of people who learned how to make something extraordinary from difficult ground. Those same values guide every rig we build: proven foundations, thoughtful engineering, and the freedom to go farther.

My love for camping and the outdoors was rooted long before Black Dirt Overland. Back in high school, all it took was a CJ-7 and just enough gas money to get out to Montauk and back. We'd sleep on the dunes, sometimes digging a hole under the Jeep and piling sand around the edges to keep the bugs away. That spirit still drives what we build today: freedom, simplicity, and figuring it out as you go. Black Dirt Overland was built for the road less traveled — even back then. My love for the CJ-7 hasn't waned either.
Deliberately limited production — every build gets the attention a six-figure vehicle deserves.
One thoroughly tested design, scaled across platforms — better quality, shorter timelines, easier service.
Commercial-grade reliability and premium components — value without the ultra-luxury markup.
No marketing department, no factory floor. Every rig is sourced, stripped, engineered and finished by a small crew in Warwick, New York — and documented along the way.






We post build progress, teardowns and events as they happen.
Follow on InstagramFleet-maintained medium-duty trucks are engineered for hundreds of thousands of working miles, carry documented service histories, and can be serviced at any commercial truck shop. The savings go into the systems you live with — not a new-truck premium.
Every truck we sell is offered with engine and drivetrain warranty coverage through National Truck Protection — even though the chassis is used. Components carry manufacturer warranties through our authorized dealer partnerships.
Yes — much of the overland market buys remotely. We document every build thoroughly, and you're welcome to visit the shop in Warwick, NY or meet us at East Coast shows and events.
Our layouts are standardized on purpose — it's how we deliver better quality at a better price. Within the platform, we configure systems (power, suspension, storage) to how you travel.
