Hi All,
Brand new to the community. Living in the mountains of western NC (out past Asheville). I've got a 2000 Toyota Tundra SR5 access cab w/ 265k miles (long live the 1st Gen). I've had it for 19 years and has long been my daily driver. No experience with formal overlanding but did a lot of family camping as a kid. Looking forward to hitting some trails.
Thanks,
Shawn

Hello,
My name is Mason, I'm from El Paso, Texas. I'm new to overloading but I'm an avid National Parks supporter. I love hiking and everything outdoors and nature, and I'm planning to visit all the National and state parks with my wife. Last year I was diagnosed with a heart condition that required me to have an emergency open-heart surgery. Thankfully, I survived the whole ordeal and I'm almost out of the woods, pun intended.
Due to my condition, I spent a good amount of time in bed rest and once I was cleared, I started to travel to the different parks around me and I realized how much trash was being left behind. I ended up carrying a bucket wherever we went so I could pick up all the trash. I used to drive a small sedan that quickly started to feel very small, so it was time for a change and I ended up getting a 2021 Kia Seltos base model. I'm not planning to go rock crawling and I needed a car that was capable, had enough room and I could use as my daily driver. I want to build on it so the LX model made perfect sense for me since it's AWD.
Unfortunately, I've met a lot of resistance from certain groups that are off-roading oriented when it comes to my reliable little rig. I came across OB on instagram and I'm so glad, I think I've finally found my "tribe".
Can't wait to travel to Austin this fall and go hiking with my brand new rig (I still haven't named her) I think the first thing I'll do to her is get some new wheels. Nice to meet y'all!

Hello everyone, I'm glad to finally get on here as a new member.
Location: I'm out of the high desert area Hesperia, California
Rig: I currently have an F150 (bone stock), but will be transitioning to a Tacoma TRD 4x4 in a few months. (currently I'm back ordered on a tuff stuff alpha hard shell roof top tent and RCI bed rack setup).
Experience: Brand new to the overlanding realm, but I have lots of camping and outdoor (climbing, hiking, mountain biking, and motorcross) experience.

Hey Everyone, my name is Matt and Im in West Texas.
I'm new to Overlanding, but have always loved the outdoors and camping.
Recently got a 2005 F150 FX4 and a Braxton Creek Bushwacker trailer.
My wife and I have a young daughter that we are raising to appreciate, and enjoy the outdoors. We started OutdoorTxs.com as a place to document
our adventures, and preserve the memories.
Looking forward to learning as much as we can, and to the new friendships in the community.
Thanks for having us!

Good morning to all, I wish to introduce myself. I'm Roger 2486 based in Concord CA. My family and I try routinely to frequent the Sierra Foothill trails when time permits. We've been Jeeping with friends on-off for many years and have moderate experience; certainly not experts by any means and have made plenty of mistakes, which we've learned and grown from. My wife and I have been following the channel for sometime and look forward to spending time, meeting folks with similar interests and values. Overlanding appears to be the perfect fit for us as we enjoy camping, being away from life's busy distractions , etc. Current ride is a 1995 Jeep YJ Wrangler on 35's with RE 4 1/2 lift and plenty of upgrades-mods, but is kind of tight on space so we have a trailer for all our gear as well. Was built for the rocks in the beginning but interests and focus has changed. Hoping to upgrade to a JK or JL in the future but have my eye on a 1942 Willy's CJ2a field find at the moment. Looking forward to enjoying the camaraderie of others and beautiful scenery along the way. Thanks and best to all!

Hello from Houston, Texas! My name is Will.
I have a 2018 Toyota 4Runner. Been offroading for some time in various vehicles. some mud, some rocks, some sand. Been wanting to hit up CO or UT where there are mountain trails. Getting more into overlanding now.
