Utah Overland

Tanner Barlow ★★★★★ 6 months ago

I ordered my Fenix 8 pro with UT overland and was super impressed with the responsiveness and care they put into my purchase. Michael discussed several different options with me over multiple days and gave me his own personal insights after … More wearing one himself for multiple years. The watch has been a huge game changer for me and I couldn’t recommend UT overland enough

So glad that we rented a Jeep Rubicon fitted out with a roof tent and camping equipment to spend 2 weeks driving round the sights of Utah. We had a great time, covered 1640 miles and the vehicle made it all possible.The roof tent was really … More easy to erect, undo a couple of clips and it pops up. Stop, pop, sleep that easy.Packing it up just requires pulling it down with a strap, making sure the sides are tucked in and fastening the clips again. Just takes a couple of minutes. The mattress is comfy and the sleeping bag warm enough for near freezing temperatures. Getting in and out of the tent means climbing a sturdy telescopic ladder fitted to the side of the vehicle.The camp kitchen, gas cooker, pots and pans are well thought through and pack neatly into the load space. The fridge is very good, big enough for fresh food and several cans of beerThe Jeep drives well, a bit noisy on paved roads because of the chunky tyres but the upside is you get excellent dirt road performance. The Jeep easily handled everything we attempted - remember to use 4High on dirt roads.We were able to keep all our electronics charged with the USB charging points and occasionally using the onboard power pack.So a great holiday all thanks to UT Overland

Was skeptical about ordering a Garmin watch from here because the website is small, but I did order and received my Fenix 8 as promised. Company was responsive to e-mails and they are on Facebook if you want to check them out. Happy with … More everything here, if you talk to them they might even have unposted discounts they can offer you!
