overlanding

My name is Chris. I live in Hattiesburg MS, and it didn’t take me long to find that there is not a whole lot of us here in the Gulf South. I’ve done quite a bit of looking on OB and there doesn’t appear to be a thread dedicated to the Gulf South so I decided to make one! This thread is...

This is a little bit of personal growth journaling, shared experience and a thank-you post. In my 20's through 40's rock climbing, mountain biking, mountaineering, photography and other extreme sports were what I was all about. And traveling in my Jeep throughout the west was simply a means to...

So I'll be Summering in Finland next year, and I was thinking if it turned long long term I could ship my truck over. My Girl has a friend down in Indonesia and so thus the Challenge of Overlanding (driving) there was started. I was thinking of driving from Helsinki Finland to Surabaya...

Hi, first off I'm a new member to OB, I drive a 1998 Jeep XJ Classic, 4.oL I6, 4WD with around 265000 on it. I'm a Valdosta State University student and I work a full time job, so I don't have a lot of spare time. That being said I'm looking for other overlanders in the area, and of course local...

We will be following the 5 south from Mexicali thru San Felipe to Bahia de Los Angeles. We plan to stop the night at San Felipe (26th). Head in to Bahia the next day. We are planning on staying approximately 3 nights in Bahia. From there we are going to head north along the 1. There will be a...

2017 F150 Build suggestions? I'm planning to tackle the Trans America Trail May of 2018. Was wondering if any of you had ever modded a F150 or similar vehicle for Overlanding and what are your suggestions? All advice is appreciated.

I bought the 2000 TJ with the intention of Overlanding with it but since it's been in the shop for upgrades I've been using my 2017 F150. I was wondering if anyone else has been using a full sized pickup and what you've done to outfit it to overland?

As a celebration of our 10th anniversary, my wife and I are planning on doing the Mojave Road from east to west December 26-29. We'll be coming from the Central Coast of California to the Laughlin/Bullhead city area on December 26, spending the night and heading out in the morning of the 27th...

Hey overlanders, I live on Long Island, NY. Not a great place to be if you're into offroading and overlanding I've found. Sure there's Rousch Creek in PA, but that's a 5 hour drive from me. My 2010 FJ Trail Teams and I are itching to break the mall crawler status and seriously get the tires...

Greetings, all. I'm happy to be a new member of OB. I am totally green to Overlanding and look forward to learning from you guys. I live in Wimberley, TX and my current rides are Toyota Land Cruiser 200 and F350 4x4. -Ryan

I'm sharing this video of one of my all time favorite Land Rover commercials. However, let's forget that it's a Land Rover commercial, that's not important. What is important is the message....

Way back in issue 5 of OutdoorX4 our overland columnist, Jonathan Hanson, wrote an intriguing editorial on traveling abroad versus traveling in the U.S. Take a look from the link below and post up your thoughts about traveling here versus abroad: https://outdoorx4.com/stories/travel-not-travel/

Hey everyone, I am looking at starting an overland rig and I am currently looking at the 2017 F-150 5.0 and Ram 1500 5.7 as the possible choices. I was pretty set on the F-150 since it has the reputation of being rugged and seems to have a lot more aftermarket support compared to the Ram 1500...

Overlander, Adventurer, Traveler...Impressed by a Honda CRV? Yes... Lets start with a quick backround story. So, about 6 months ago I was looking for a small fuel efficient AWD vehicle to use for day trips and adventures. Nothing hard core, nothing for multi day, week, or monthly...

So I follow a popular mountain biking forum and one of the cool things that they have that I don't (or haven't) found here is a sort of trail forum that gives specific directions to get to the trail, the difficulty of the trail and a map of the trail. I think that's a great tool, but I think it...
