The Ford Expedition is known primarily for being a large SUV, which in the US is more often associated with delivering children to schools or training than with off-road vehicles. To make it more off-road, Ford introduced the Expedition Timberline Off-Grid concept, which has everything budding adventurers need to explore off-road.
Even though it is Ford Expedition Timberline Off-Grid concept vehicle, nothing can stop you if you want to do almost the same for yourself. To begin with, we need a roof top tent Thule, which is attached to the Ford Explorer roof sled. 180˚ canopy and portable outdoor shower, in this case, are part of the kit and come together with the tent. We can also install additional lights that will enable you to continue driving in case of poor visibility.

In this case, durable FOX Performance Elite Series shock absorbers were installed on the Explorer 17-inch and the rims are fitted with off-road tires in size 35-inch. It was also necessary to protect the gearbox and for additional 5 cm raise the height of the car. Only this one is driving now 32 cm above the ground. The latest upgrade is not specific to the Explorer model, as it is a mini trailer Turtleback Expedition Series. With it, we provide even more storage space and a supply of cold and hot water. It has a kitchen with a stove and a sink. Although in this case it is only an Explorer concept, this time it is not completely far from reality, as is usually the case with concepts.
