On a hot, Spring day in Flagstaff Arizona, the Remote Vans crew found themselves in the middle of the largest overlanding community event in the United States: Overland Expo West 2024. We spent 3 days surrounded by overland enthusiasts, adventure seekers, large expedition rigs, adventure vans, a lot of dogs and even one adventure-loving cat. A highlight of the overlanding calendar, the annual event attracts close to 30,000 people in search of camping and vehicle and motorcycle equipment and services to get inspired, get out there and get going!
“Overland Expo West was a great experience for Remote Vans. We got the opportunity to meet up with our Rolling Nomads, connect with our suppliers and meet folks who shared their van life ambitions with us. It was our first time at the show and we were delighted by the overwhelmingly, positive feedback we received about our Aegis Series. Thank you to the show organisers for putting on an awesome event!” – Robyn Hobson, Chief Marketing Officer.
Appearing with our partners Nomadic Cooling and supported by the team at Little Dealer RV, we set ourselves up for a great weekend. It flew by and it was awesome to introduce the Aegis Series and all our “work, play, travel … anywhere” vans to Arizona. It’s been a few days and we’re still overwhelmed by the positive feedback about our Vanhalla Seat: the 90 degree “swing” sleeper seat, our recirculating, internal shower and that our vans are designed for the ultimate, remote-work friendly experience.
A huge thank you to both our partners and the event organisers. It was our first time at an Overland Expo event and Flagstaff certainly didn’t disappoint. We’re already looking forward to their upcoming show in June in Redmond, OR.
However, the biggest thank you needs to go to all the folks who stopped to chat, admire the Aegis Series and share their #vanlife dreams (big and small) with us. To misquote Arnold: Arizona … we’ll be back.
The Aegis Series is our ultimate, “work, play, travel … anywhere!” adventure van that’s kitted with all the necessary gear to get out there and get off-grid.
