Hello everyone! Another new guy here. Found y'all while looking for some info on Land Rovers and thought I'd join up. Wouldn't consider myself an overlander just yet, but I do love adventure and this looks right up my alley. Mostly I've been involved with the bushcraft community and general woods bumming. I have a fair bit of experience wheeling in the mud but now I mostly just want to ride good trails and do some exploring, hiking, camping and all that.
I also enjoy paddling sports but still consider myself a novice in that department. I've paddles some small lakes, a small portion of the Yazoo River and took a day trip down the mighty Mississippi River. Hoping to spend a good deal more time on the water next year. Really that is what led to me looking into vehicles. I've been a motorcycle commuter for a good while and needed something that could carry kayaks/canoes and all the accouterments that go with them. My wife drives a Dodge Journey and let me tell you, we've had a few camping trips in that thing but with three kids and all the gear it gets really tight. I was leaning towards a Cherokee but a Land Rover Disco ii caught my eye and now I'm looking at them. Looks to be a nice base rig to build off with good towing capacity for that adventure trailer I keep saying that I'm going to build one day.
Anyways, enough about me. Look forward to talking with fellow adventurers and hope to see y'all on the trail one day.
