Mike Timmons, EGR North American Aftermarket Vice President of Sales and Marketing, says, “This is our first year for EGR USA to participate in all four Overland Expo events, and what better way to show the versatility and style of our electric bed cover and accessories than to build the ultimate Overlanding Jeep Gladiator,” said Mike Timmons, EGR North American aftermarket vice president of sales and marketing. “We are excited to showcase how EGR’s precision engineered products are the ideal selection for overlanding from the perspective of fit, form and function. The RollTrac has features unlike any other cover on the market and the best way to showcase its versatility, strength and innovative design was to build the ultimate overlanding Gladiator truck so it could be viewed up close and personal. This truck is outfitted to handle any terrain yet still can be a daily driver.”
