Overlanding has exploded in popularity in the last few years, but for many, the concept still feels like a mix between off-roading and camping. Truth is, it’s both — and a whole lot more. Overlanding is about self-reliance, exploration, and the drive to get far off the grid where the road ends and adventure begins.

At RokBlokz, we live for the dirt, the distance, and the challenge. And we know that when you’re miles away from civilization, your setup needs to be more than capable — it needs to be dependable. Whether you’re crawling rocky trails, crossing desert flats, or mudding through dense forests, the right overlanding accessories and gear make all the difference between a great trip and a miserable one.

There’s a reason the Subaru WRX is one of the most beloved rally legends ever to hit dirt. From the early days of Fuji Heavy Industries to the golden age of turbocharged all-wheel-drive domination, Subaru built more than just cars — they built a culture. For those of us at RokBlokz, that legacy runs deep. Our roots are in the same dirt those Subaru rally cars tore through, and our mission is built on the same obsession with durability, performance, and protection. 

Is it really happening? After years of waiting and wondering if Subaru had given up on real performance cars, they just dropped something big—the Performance-B STI Concept. It made its debut at the Japan Mobility Show, and honestly, it looks so close to production that it almost feels like a teaser for what’s next. For anyone who grew up loving the WRX and STI, this feels like a glimpse of hope that Subaru’s performance spirit isn’t gone—it’s just been warming up.

Every now and then, something shows up at SEMA that makes everyone stop and stare. This year, that moment belonged to Toyota. The brand rolled into Las Vegas and dropped a bombshell — the Toyota Scion 01 UTV Concept, a turbocharged hybrid side-by-side that looks ready to take on the dunes, trails, and maybe even the competition itself.

And no, this isn’t the Scion brand we remember from the 2000s with boxy commuter cars and youth marketing gimmicks. This is a rebirth in name only — a wild, purpose-built Toyota Scion 01 hybrid UTV designed to explore what’s possible when off-road engineering and hybrid technology collide.

Unlike summer riding, where heat and dehydration are the primary concerns, winter riding requires dealing with freezing temperatures, snowdrifts, and rapidly changing weather conditions. Trails that seem manageable in warm weather can become treacherous when covered in ice and snow. Keeping yourself warm, your UTV running, and your route planned is essential for a safe and successful winter ride. 

Here’s everything you need to pack and prep to make sure your winter UTV adventure stays fun—and doesn’t turn into a cold weather survival situation. 

When the temperature drops and the snow starts to fall, even the most confident drivers know winter brings its own set of challenges. Ice, sleet, salt, and reduced visibility all combine to make driving riskier — and harder on your vehicle. Every year, thousands of crashes occur on snow-covered roads, many of which could be prevented with better preparation and awareness. That’s why we created this handy guide on winter weather driving safety tips and preparation. 

When Ford brought back the Bronco, it wasn’t just another SUV release — it was a revival. The Bronco’s rugged DNA, boxy stance, and go-anywhere attitude instantly made it a favorite among off-roaders and weekend explorers alike. Whether you’re plowing through sand dunes, crawling over rocks, or just daily driving your city streets, the Bronco was built for action and adventure.

But with that adventure comes one problem every Bronco owner eventually faces: flying rocks, mud, and debris beating up your paint and fenders. That wide stance turns your tires into catapults. That’s where RokBlokz Ford Bronco mud flaps come in — built tough, easy to install, and designed by people who live for dirt, dust, and trail time.

From October 14–19, 2025, Sand Hollow State Park in Hurricane, Utah will come to life as UTV Takeover celebrates its 10th anniversary. Over five action-packed days, thousands of riders, families, and vendors will gather for what has become one of the largest, family-friendly off-road event series in the country.

If you’ve never been to UTV Takeover, it’s time to plan a trip. With competitions, group rides, concerts, vendors, camping, and more, there’s no better way to immerse yourself in the UTV off-road lifestyle. Whether you’re bringing a UTV or just coming to soak in the atmosphere, UTV Takeover has something for you and the whole family.

When it comes to midsize trucks that have earned an almost cult-like following, the Toyota Tacoma sits at the top of the list. For three decades, it’s been more than just a pickup—it’s become a lifestyle symbol for off-roaders, overlanders, and weekend adventurers alike. Known for reliability, rugged build quality, and serious off-road chops, the Tacoma has carved out a legacy few trucks can touch.

And if you’re a Tacoma owner—or thinking about becoming one—you’ll quickly realize why these trucks hold their value, why aftermarket customization is such a big deal, and why a set of RokBlokz Toyota Tacoma mud flaps is one of the smartest first upgrades you can make.
