Hi everyone, thanks for having me!!My name is Curtis, and I am from Southwestern Pennsylvania, USA. Married with a 3yr old daughter and a 9mth old son. They are a big reason why I am getting into overland. That and I am an avid outdoorsman.
I have no experience in overland but that's why I am here.
My rig is a 2013 Toyato Tacoma Sport DCSB with a 3" Old Man Emu lift and BAMF rocksliders. There is a picture of how she sits as of now.
Thanks again for having me, I hope to learn and contribute as much as I can.
Joined OB last year, but a long time lurker. Finally bought the membership last night and Happy to be more involved now.

Hey all,
Been lurking for a while and decided to join in. I recently acquired a 2005 4Runner Sport V6. Found OB while researching the purchase and it rekindled my desire for outdoor/4WD experiences. First upgrade was tires (Cooper Discoverer AT3's). I'll be spending some time in the tech forums looking for some guidance on rust interdiction on my undercarriage. Michigan winters equal salt and this rig is showing some signs of it on the frame. Looking forward to a great experience here.

Hello! This is Christian and Chelsea Tuttle, and we are brand new to the community!
We started off on this particular adventure in West Glacier, Montana. We have since taken a few months to head down the west coast and are currently doing maintenance on our rig and researching Mexico in preparations for crossing the border in the next week or so (tips welcome)!
Current Location: San Diego, CA
Current Rig: 1982, Steyr-Puch, Pinzgauer 712W
We've converted and traveled in a handful of vehicles together since 2014 (ambulance, 24ft school bus…), but we wanted something more compact and off-road ready for the hard-to-reach free campsites. We have been living in vehicles full-time for over a year, but this will be the longest stint of full-time traveling we've done so far and the first time we'll be adventuring out of the country!
Hello everyone my name is Brett and I am located in San Diego ca. I currently have a 2007 jku rubicon.
I have done my fair share of traveling/ camping but this is my first rig designed solely for overlanding. I am stearing more toward the explore and away from the rock rigs. Hoping to meet others in So Cal that want to get out and explore.

Welcome Christian & Chelsea! I love the Pinzgauer. If you come back through Sacramento, I'd love to see the rig in person, and buy you lunch! I'm Kelly.
