Episode description

I've been seeing some more and more talk about payload when outfitting and setting up Overlanding builds. Honestly, this isn't a topic I've thought about a ton in the past as I always assumed that even with an RTT and drawer system, I wouldn't be anywhere near the max payload.

However, there's a lot to think about and a lot of factors that go into payload and how your vehicle carries it. So, in this episode of the podcast, I'm going to talk a bit about that to hopefully plant a seed with other newer Overlanders to think about this issue and to make good decisions.

As I mentioned in the episode, Nathan at Outdoor Auto has a really great episode diving much deeper into payload, so if you want to learn significantly more, check out his video here and subscribe to his channel because he makes great content: https://youtu.be/_eOBiZcU3sg?si=c076YroIUB_5Yk-8
