When I saw my first expedition vehicle, there was no internet, and few (if any) expedition vehicle manufacturers – now, in Germany particularly, and with the Netherlands growing each year, companies and sites offering anything from complete vehicles to parts flourish – I welcome this explosion in the market – it reflects the increasing interest and possibility of people/families to ‘live their dream’ – I encourage you to look widely, and immerse yourself in all the available options – of course, if you fall into the category of someone that does not have the time, skills, inclination to build your own expedition vehicle, and do not want to sell your house to buy something ready built, then Gekkotruck perhaps offers you a unique possibility to fulfil your dream - whilst the cost of an expedition vehicle is not 'cheap', our pricing when compared to standard campervan's or smaller 4WD alternatives is extremely competitive, opening the possibility for more people to seriously consider extended or more challenging travel tours. Below I include a selection of some of my personal favourites, in addition to the more well known companies:
