I’m still very new to overlanding and haven’t invested in any upgrades to my truck yet. I’ll be rocking a ground tent until I get some more experience. I’m hoping this forum will be a good way to join a local group on some runs and gain some knowledge.
You're good to go as is. A ground tent and reliable vehicle is all you need to start off with. I'm sure you will meet some great folks in your area.

Overlanding is about getting out. Gently explore and have a back up plan. Everything else will come naturally

I’m pretty new as well. I’m still learning more about it as well. I’m out in Ohio, but I have plans to travel out west in the next year. Especially Montana.
