I didn't know what overlanding was until I saw a video on YouTube. That's when I realized I was an overlander... At least in my heart. I moved to Arizona in 2015. I didn't own a vehicle ( long story for another time). I bought a Honda Fit because I needed some form of transportation, but was soon disappointed with that purchase when I discovered all the dirt roads! I had no idea how awesome Arizona was until I moved here. I'm originally from the east coast urban jungle. I literally had no idea what the nation had to offer in the way of middle of nowhere places! I began overlanding before I even heard of it. In my little Honda Fit. On the dirt and the rocks. With white knuckles. LOL. I even put a rooftop tent on that little car. I recently moved the tent to a 4Runner! Now I want to learn all the things!

I grew up in Vegas with my family driving trophy trucks and buggies. Slowly building my rig but on the debate of picking up another 4x4 Expedition. (Had a 2000 XLT that was a monster running 40s).

Hey, just joined and am hoping to get started in the overlanding community. I have a background of off road atv riding and rock crawling with a purpose built Jeep.That was years ago and now our family of 5 have a more family friendly ride.

We live in S. Central Kansas (pretty boring) and are open to weekend type to 3ish day trips. The truck is full-size so I’ll have to find some more open trails though. I have a background of ground and hammock camping and am looking to expand to include some adventure trails also! I’m looking at Ouachita NF, Ozark NF and about anywhere in Colorado as our main destinations. I appreciate any and all advice I can gain!

Hey everyone, my name is Mike, I'm from eastern Iowa. Just recently purchased an 86' Jeep Grand Wagoneer and I'm looking to do a little bit of easy going overlanding before she starts the restoration process! I have a few trips under my belt, but nothing with the Wagoneer yet, so we'll see where she takes me.

Very nice rig.

 

[Kent R]

Big Jim, well I was bigger before I lost weight! lol
I've been off roading about 50 years now! Got my start when a family friend took us camping in his Bronco and I've been hooked ever since!
Currently have a 2001 Dodge Ram 2500 4x4 with service body to hold all my junk. Hockey puck 2 inch lift on front and extra springs on rear so I can run 35 inch tires all around while running stock suspension. Locker in the rear axle and winch up front.
Ham call sign: kd6fho. Have both a 2m/440 radio and HF radio.
Very experienced in off road and overland travels but just when I think I'm pretty smart someone shows me something new! I love that part!!
Looking for another camper so I can hit the trails again!
My new home is in Aberdeen Washington, gateway to the Olympics. Very different than the South Western states where I did most of my off roading.
Happy Trails!

Excited to join the board. Current rig is a 2000 Land Rover Discovery 2. Done plenty of desert and mountain wheeling in her, and finally decided to make the leap and mount an RTT on her for some overlanding fun. Looking forward to learning a ton from the community.
Studying for HAM License, GMRS License: WRDQ223. You can call me Don.

Thanks!

Good day. Name is Randy and my rig’s name is Natasha. She is a 2019 Ram Power Wagon. Hail from the Monterey Bay area in California. I have a number of years experience overlanding, mostly with a 2014 Ram 1500. I’m here with the intent to learn and help when possible. My first project is going to be building a bedslide for Natasha. Thanks in advance for all the help.

Just joined up and look forward to this adventure! We are from the foothills of NC, better known as "Mayberry"! Our rig is a 2000 Nissan Xterra 1st Gen that we have been outfitting for a couple years and a slow process. We love taking trips, camping and enjoying the outdoors!

I’m just getting back into off-roading and am looking to build a Foxtail camper. I just sold my 40’ long, bumper pull toyhauler which I enjoyed. However, as I have put some years on I have decided to downsize. Am currently in process of selling my Ford dually. I had a CJ 8 Scrambler years ago. this was Jeep’s version of a pickup before the current Gladiator craze. Looking at 4 door Jeeps which currently, finally get decent gas mileage. Been stalking around on here looking for ideas and have seen some great stuff. Look forward to picking some brains for ways to do a cheap, reliable off-road trailer.
