My name is Rick. I live in the DFW Texas area. Experience? Beginner I guess. My vehicle is a 2015 Jeep Cherokee (KL). FWD. I put AT tires on it, and so far with the soft roading I do it is great!

I claim to be from DFW but in all truthfulness I'm about 2 hours out, as Texans know that is just down the road. Welcome to the club.

Is there anyone who could suggest some places to get some dirt on the tires in NW Georgia??

[Cbevington6]

Hey everyone, I'm Camron and located in the Texas panhandle. I have a 4Runner with just a few mods. I am a novice at this but I have several trips in the planning phase for this spring and summer. I've found that I enjoy the planning and nav part of all of this. I have skimmed these forums for a while so I figured it's time I join up!

 

[Ian McAdorey]

Greetings from Helmetta, New Jersey!

My name is Ian and live in a small area in Central New Jersey just south of East Brunswick!
I drive a 2000 Subaru Outback with a 4" lift kit and 29" tires; in addition, I own a 2017 3.6R Outback and my girlfriend drives a 2017 Forester XT.
I grew up in the wonderful Sunshine State, Attended College in the beautiful Green Mountains of Vermont, and planted myself somewhere "in-the-middle."
I would say that my experience and capabilities are as on par with my vehicle; jack of all trades but by far a master of none.
Looking forward to meeting new people!

[Sean Inglesby]

Hello all, name's Sean Inglesby

I hail from wine country, California, USA. Specifically Santa Rosa, CA.
I have a whole sough of rigs/vehicles for various purposes...the summary:
1. 2002 Jeep Grand Cherokee - Dog Taxi, daily driver, light to moderate wheeling, overlanding with heated seats and sunroof is awesome
2. 1997 Jeep Cherokee - used to be my overlander (North Carolina to California is longest continuous journey to date) but has grown into more of a capable off roader
3. 2002 VW New Beetle...yup, just wait till you see photos.
4. Other projects coming and going frequently

I am former US Army special operations, born in Germany, raised mostly in California, and spent a few years in Georgia and North Carolina with uncle sam. Grew up outdoors, camping, backpacking, wheeling, exploring, navigating, etc and was very confident in that setting. The army just spent some money making those skills even better and adding to them. I'm good with it.
I now own and operate Trail Forged Offroad and Overland, a supplier and manufacturer dedicated to the wheeling and adventuresome crowds.

 

[Carlos Vargas]

Location: Curridabat, Costa Rica
Rig: 2017 Mitsubishi L200 (Triton)
Experience: Minimal. Other than a few, local, day trips but that's about it. Recently upgraded to the newer 2017 model and the only upgrade is BFG's. Looking for local members and hopefully will soon start overloading more!

Hi and welcome! Nice trucks, but love the bug! Hah! Those tires change the look quite a bit. Is that the 4motion or whatever they call their 4 wheel drive? Is that even available on the bug?

How'd you make out with the fires in Santa Rosa recently? Used to live up that way and know a few people that were within just a few homes of losing their place. Devastating. So sad for all those involved. I can only imagine how the rebuilding is going.
