THE OSIDER MARCH / APRIL 2022

Unless you’ve been living under a rock, it’s easy to see that everyone wants to kit out his or her vehicle these days. Whether it’s meant for weekend overlanding, long camping missions, or the hot trend of Van life. Everywhere you look, you see rooftop tents, showers, and external jerry cans adorning these vehicles. The options are endless, and a little expertise would be a huge help when getting started on your own.

That’s where Rackstarz comes in to help you

make the right decision on your next addition. Owners and brothers John and Nick Bullion grew up in Colorado and spent their youth outdoors biking, hiking, and exploring their surroundings, so it was a no brainer when they decided to get involved in the overlanding business. They built three stores in Colorado and two in California—one in Burbank, and their newest addition here in Oceanside. They chose North County because it’s close to the desert, mountains, and ocean. Our central location is the perfect ground zero for overlanding enthusiasts of all types.

Rackstarz carries all of the top brands, including Yakima, Thule, Tepui, and Front Runner—just to name a few. You name it, and they’ll probably have it or they can order it for you easily. With their experience and expertise, Rackstarz helps you make the best call for your personal overlanding needs. If you’re in the military, they offer a tenpercent discount. Better yet—they’ll even do the installation in house. I highly recommend checking them out.

Who knows? Maybe your ride will be the next tricked out machine that’ll have everyone on the streets looking your way in awe of your creation.
