Hi, I'm new here and the truck posted is not my main off road vehicle. I have a 2000 Land Rover Discovery 2 that I plan to equip for the Overland Bound meets and travels. The Truck can do it but I'd rather be a little more comfortable.
Cant wait to hit the trail with you in the future.

Go to the member map and type in a member number or city and it should bring up all the people in that general area. I’m also a member Sierra Foothills Overlanders, we meet every second Tues of the month in Shingle Springs. Its at the Break Room!
Check the Rally Point events for our meet up, training, ect dates and come on out. There is also a meet up in Sac, although not a really official one. I’ll get you the dates for that.
I’m in Idaho now, coming home tomorrow. Maybe we can get coffee.

Id say you’re starting with a pretty solid base! Congrats on the new rig, and welcome to the community!
Awesome. You’re pretty much ready to roll out of the box - awesome baseline. Welcome to the community!
Welcome to the group. There is a ton of info in the forums and some pretty awesome ideas for the 4Runners.

Hello,
I am Bryan, currently in South Charlotte NC area. I recently picked up a used 2011 Toyota Tacoma TRD double cab with the long bed. It is basically stock at this point and looking forward to the upgrade and learning process. I wont bore you with a stock photo.
I feel like I caught the overland bug without knowing it back in 95-2001 when I was a track mechanic in the Army. I was the operator/driver of a 56 Ton M-88A1 recovery vehicle. We would deploy with this vehicle, repair and recover others and sleep/operate and "camp" out of it for sometimes weeks to months at a time.
There is a ton of info here and I am glad to have found and joined. Between youtube and here I will keep myself busy for sure.
Other random info.
I am a general Ham but have stuck mainly to digital modes so far. Looking forward to the challenge of mobile setup in the Toyota.
I would like to study and take the Extra exam at some point but happy with things as of now. JS8Call is amazing mode that I am interested in trying to incorporate into mobile operations.
I was Auto mechanic many years ago but have moved into IT related career path. I still enjoy everything from changing my own oil and routine maintenance to larger jobs that most would not do from a garage.
Love the country, camping, shooting, and recently picked up a used mountain bike also to hopefully help get myself back into shape and enjoy some trails that my truck will hopefully help get me to.
Looking forward to meeting some folks and learning and sharing.

Hi everyone!
I'm Crystal and my husband is Eddie. We are sharing this profile as we both have trucks for overlanding. We are in Riverton, Utah and are pretty much newbies into overlanding. I have a 2010 4Runner and Eddie has a 2016 Tundra. We are slowly adding mods to both trucks, but the 4Runner will be the primary when offroading is involved. We don't have a picture of the Tundra yet, it is still pretty new to use (upgrade from the 2003 Tacoma in our profile picture).
