Hello and welcome to the OB family.
 
Hi, I'm Mike aka GreatCJ8
I've always loved camping. Most of it has been car camping of some sort or another. Of late has been dispersed camping in the George Washington National Forest in my AWD CRV & now that its restomod is done, in my jeep scrambler. My dog & I fit perfectly in the back with an airmattress that fits snug in the bed. Above that I'm mounting 2 crossmembers & a luggage basket ontop & moving the spare up top.
Inside I'm going to test setting up my one tigris tent & instead of poles, tying it under the crossmembers. If it works = Super easy overlanding. If not we can still sleep in the bed for 2 seasons that don't have mosquitos. As far as getting my glampy wife camping I'll need a trailer with HVAC for the other 2 seasons =)
So here is the base model, once advertised as the OG SUV-
I got the overland bug BAD from the Idaho Overland Movie on youtube & have since started an insta page around jeeping 4x4, overlanding, bacon, fires, dogs, scotch/ repeat

Hallo Mike
Welcome to OBO

Hi, I am OB. Currently, we live in Palmer, Alaska, but are heading on a relocation overlanding trip to South Carolina March 30th, 2024.

Grew up in PNW, near Eatonville, WA, with lots of wheeling experiences in those areas. Military background with minimalist and backcountry experience.

Now, I am more mellow, especially when only one rig on the trail and its just my wife and 14yr old pup.

We have a 2019 4Runner TRD ORP, that has just turned into a more capable overlanding rig (lift, tires, ridiculous electronics mounts, dual batteries, fridge, etc... pics in current state and more to come durimg the next weeks).

Looking forward to being part of the community and wish I found this earlier in my planning!

Welcome! I’m in Ohio but heading south in couple months then heading out west. Maybe we will cross paths!

Hi, OVRLANDnoob! We made it to Pegosas Springs, CO so far. Canada produce some awesome northern lights, WA had great forest roads, Oregon Leslie Gulch was awesome, then spent a few days in Moab. Left Hurrah Pass area earlier today.

Still on track for April 13th in South Carolina.
