Location: Alaska
Rig: '18 Toyota Tacoma
Exp: Grew up in NM on a road that most would probably consider 4wd only, but for me was just going home. I definitely have a lot to learn. Right now I'm just trying to figure out the best layout for me and my pupper.

Hi all! New member located in the Okanagan valley area (Kelowna) and looking to start some group rides and open to tips on the overland build.
Just picked up a 2021 Chevy ZR2 and have some small upgrades so far, but that’s another post.

Hello, new guy here. I'm from central Ohio. Not New to wheeling but new to overland. Currently working on my truck to get her ready for trips. 2003 silverado 1500.

Its all in the works

 

[Tyler_trd]

Is there anyway to get in touch with people in Canada

 

[M Rose]

Is there anyway to get in touch with people in Canada

Two ways to do so...
1: Got to Member Maps, and filter out everything but Members, then select the area you want and send a message to those members.



2: go to Overland Bound By Region: North America, Canada, Prairies: Check-In

Greetings,

The name is Boojie, I'm a boot when it comes to overlanding. I drive a Blue 3rd gen Taco 2017 that I named "SMURF TACO". Still riding on stock equipment.
Located in Camarillo, CA
I'm a retired military, although still working on base. My wife and I try as much as we can to drive around during the weekends.
I've been following this group on YouTube for a while and am amazed at the groups friendliness. The main reason that i joined.
looking forward to tagging along on a not so hard trail run.

Say hello to my Smurf Taco

Welcome to OB and hello Smurf Taco!

Guess I missed this thread.

New rig - 2020 Tacoma TRD OR, stock for now, but I do have my ARB dual compressor hooked up. Plans are a small lift 2”, 255/85/16 tires, winch (still have my Zeon 10s) this one I plan to keep more stock and simple. Going more Overland and less rock crawler.
Old rig - 2006 GX470 pictured with my home build M416 style trailer at the Arctic Ocean, 3” Radflo/MetalTech long travel LiftRCI skids and rock rails, Demilo Front bumper winch Zeon 10s winch, MetalTech rear bumper, Cooper ST Maxx 255/80/17 tires
Trailer - Home build frame, by a friend based off his M-416 trailer, box is home built using Hickory wood, wheels and tires match vehicle, mounts for 2-5 gal cans and my Yeti cooler. Plans to add an Alpha ll RTT and a place for my ARB fridge
Live in SW Colorado
Experience - somewhere in the middle, I done a couple of trips to Alaska, Arctic Ocean, NMBDR, most of the San Juan mountains, the Gila, Big Bend and plans to do the Pony Express across Utah & Nevada. I carry paper maps if I can get what I need or want, use Gaia on my iPad or CarPlay with a Bad Elf gps. I have a HAM license, but changing radios and would like a GMRS combined if possible and I also have a CB. Wish list trip is the Trans Labrador highway, was stationed at Goosebay, want to see it again.

Hi All.
We are from Northern Vermont, but have travelled extensively thru NM, AZ, CO, UT & MT. After a few years away, we acquired a 20 Chevy ZR2 to start exploring with after our 4 Runner moved on.

Location: St. Louis
