Typical camper vans are great for cruising down open stretches of highway, but if you want to venture off the beaten path and truly get away from it all, you may need something a bit tougher — a bit more off-road ready.

That's where expedition, or "overland," vehicles — which combine the interior space of a camper and the capability of an off-roader — come in handy.

Originally built by Phoenix Pop Up Campers and currently up for sale through Osprey Custom Cars, this four-wheel-drive overlander is based on a Mitsubishi truck, wears knobby, all-terrain tires, and rides high on a custom suspension system built for traversing uneven ground.

Plus, it comes equipped with solar panels, a multi-stage water-filtration system, a kitchen, and a fully functional bathroom, meaning that adventurers can go fully off the grid.

The pop-top camper is currently listed for sale on eBay with an asking price of $149,950.
