Hello everyone. My name is Jesse. I have a 2003 Tundra that I'm starting to build for overlanding. I already have new exhaust, brakes, and suspension. Next is rock sliders, then I'm thinking about a Lumber/Ladder rack. I want a ladder rack because it has lots of places to mount lights, hi lift jack, tools, awning, etc. I'm in Colorado Springs. I've done a lot of the trails off of Rampart Range road, I know the area pretty well. Next year I plan on a trip to Crystal Mill and then to Moab.

Hey, everybody

My name is Jim, from Cave Creek, AZ just north of Phoenix.
I drive a 2017 Toyota Tacoma TRD Off Road

I retired a few months ago and bought the truck and started exploring the back country. I didn't even know that what I was doing had a name until I started watching overlanding videos on YouTube.
I love that color! Inferno?

Well Hello, everyone. Name's Robert Jones, and I am a recently retired Marine, on to my next career. I grew up in the PACNW, so my love for the outdoors is in my bones. Currently residing in Orange County, CA, with my beautiful wife and 3x kids. I love the idea of Overlanding, and getting out there and getting dirty. How I do that with the aforementioned family is beyond me, as none of them seem to have any interest. SO - I joined here to kinda get my toes in the pool, and take it slow. Vehicle is a 2015 T4R Trail Premium, rock rails & 34"s...its a slow start, but I think this is for me.

Hoping to get to at least a meet and greet before I try and beg the wife for a trip into the great unknown. :)

Greetings,
I am new here. Currently I do not have an overland rig, but I am looking to change that in the next year. My family and I have been doing mostly car camping out in state parks and I am looking to expand our experiences. I grew up doing overlanding in Missouri but we didn't call it that back then.
