My wife and I are from Central Illinois. We've been tent camping out of the back of our mildly modified JKU for a while now, but just purchased a pre-loved, heavily modified M416 trailer.
We're anxious for many more adventures especially now that we have a bit more room. Planning a trip to S. Dakota and Wyoming next summer for our 25th anniversary. That's what prompted the trailer purchase.

Greetings Michael, welcome to Overland Bound!

Hey everyone! My name is Dan Burdick currently residing in Sacramento.
I recently got a 2013 4Runner Limited and absolutely love it. Aside from a single camping trip to a campground I have no experience in overlanding but I'm looking to get as much experience and education as possible.
The photo is from a river nearby the Oregon Humbug State Park. Also attached is the only fish we caught that day, barely bigger than the lure!

Greetings Dan, welcome to Overland Bound!

Hello all, been on the site for a few days just now posting here, I have a 2015 Ram 1500 Big Horn (2wd), and I have a 2008 Chevy Suburban LTZ 4x4. We are located in Delaware but Travel up and down the coast. My wife and I have been camping for last 6 years. A bunch of trips to the beach areas with the suburban for fishing. I'll take the Ram out to local State Parks and what not for some easier trails. I think this next season we want to focus more on the mountain trials with the Suburban and maybe even the Ram once I upgrade some things.

Hello and welcome to the OB family.

Hey there! New here, and new to this lifestyle, although I have always been an outdoors guy, but overall new to the vehicle side of it.

Im from the West Texas area. I just purchased a 2024 GMC Terrain AT4, I know its not much but for my current life situation and budget, I figured it would be a good start to this adventuring lifestyle. I have always been outdoors camping, fishing, hiking etc but never really dabbled into the off-roading, exploring side but here I am, ready to join a new community & have a new hobby with my sons!

Hey all. I'm Joe. I'm in Illinois, about 30 miles NE of St Louis. I have pretty extensive camping experience, and have been taking the 2020 F-150 out to more remote places in the last few years. Pics below are from a KOFA trip about 3 years ago. I'm planning to go out west again this winter, and recently picked up a RTT and have a proper bed rack on order. I'll post more pics as it all comes together. Glad to be here!
