We went to Overland Expo West 2025 in Flagstaff, AZ, to find the Top 5 Toyota Builds.
We’ve been selecting the top Toyotas at the Expo for over 7 years, but this year was different. 🏆
For the first time ever, we handed out custom trophies to the most insane Toyota builds of 2025.
From GX550s on portals to Tacomas on 40-inch tires, Aussie-style Land Cruisers, and next-level electrical setups, these rigs are built to impress.
👑 First place went to Frank and his GX550, who at 74 years old built a rig that blew us away.
