Raptor is a little large/heavy from a traditional overlanding standpoint. But you can overland in anything.

Have to disagree. The Landcruiser / LX570 are great overlanding vehicles and they weigh 1000 lbs more than a Gen 2 raptor. I have overlanded with many Range Rovers too, which aren't small or light. Here's a photo from an overlanding trip we do in Maine each year - it's pretty well known in the overlanding world and expedition portal. None of these vehicles are small or light especially once you have added the overlanding conveniences.

Overlanding is not rock crawling. Size doesn't matter as much. What matters is room inside and outside, and utilitarianism, along with aftermarket support. Reliable 4WD system goes without saying. Any F150 super crew would make for a great overlanding platform.
