Good morning from Sunny OKC!!! I am new to the Overland Group! Novice in overlanding but experienced in being outdoors!! Rig is a 2019 TRD Pro. Pics to come. I was introduced to this by a member that highly encouraged me to join for the wisdom of those that have gone before and those that have made the mistakes. Looking forward to getting out and exploring!!

Hello folks,
My name's louis and at this point I don't have an overland vehicle I think. My wife and I spent 7 months living in our 5er, traveling around AZ, CO, UT, TX, & NM until work forced me to move back to the east. Just sold my rig and truck (picture attached) as a set and so now I am trying to figure out what to buy next so I can try to recreate the sense of freedom while still tethered to a house. I think I have decide to buy a GX 460, which would be a Prado where I come from in South Africa. We plan on doing lots of miles to get from FL to the canyon lands and I think doing that in the luxury of a GX would be great. I am hoping to find lots of knowledge about how to do a build because I haven't done that before and hopefully find some like minded people in the Tampa Bay area that could go out with me on occasions to learn a bit more about how to do overlanding correctly.

Hi. My name is Joshua. After working in public safety for most of my adult life, I was injured in the line of duty and was retired with disability. I did not know what I was missing out on. After learning about overlanding and watching all these videos in the subject, I have fallen in love with nature and the overland experience. I like to take my family out so my kids don’t miss what I missed. I have a 2012 Jeep Rubicon and I am here to help and share in whatever I can do. Thanks.

Hi y’all. My names Will, and I’ve just recently joined overland bound. Been watching on youtube for a while and finally decided to join
Location: North GA near Chattanooga TN
Rig: 2014 AM General Mobility Ventures MV-1
Experience: Very limited overlanding experience. Growing up I would go camping with my dad but being disabled tended to limit where I could go and for how long, but I’ve recently discovered overlanding (last several years) and at first didn’t think it was something I could do as I didn’t have and couldn’t get a large 4x4 vehicle but I’ve learned more and more that that shouldn’t limit adventure. Sure my vehicle is only 2 wheel drive and ways 3.5 tons but in the end it’s a great vehicle that does most of what I ask of it.
Thanks for making such a great platform. See y’all out there

Just introducing myself! From Northern New Jersey. I love the outdoors and adventure. I enjoy mountain climbing and camping. I have a lifted Jeep so Overlanding is totally appealing to me and been really enjoying all the great Youtube videos out there. I'm hoping to get out there and hoping to learn and meet some great people out here!
