[family-overland]

Hello All!
I am new to overlanding, but have been offroading my whole life for hunting/camping/fishing trips and just to get outdoors. I look forward to being a part of the overland community.

I'm in the military and stationed in Naples, Italy currently but should be stateside in a year or so, and eventually back home to Colorado when I retire.

I have a 2010 Jeep Wrangler Sport 2door with a 3.5 inch lift and 35inch BFG TA/KO2 tires. I'm still looking to do many upgrades and build a trailer at some point.

Here are a couple of pics from my excursion last weekend as well as one from last year with my Jeep decorated for Christmas.

Hello to you all. I am an aspiring new over-lander. Modestly experienced backpacker, kayaker, and lover of all things outdoors. Just purchased a 2018 Tacoma TRD Off Road and ready to start building it out for some adventures. I live in the San Antonio Texas area and have spent the past 20 years working in Parks and Recreation. I look forward to learning from many of you and meeting up at some point.

Welcome, great new rig!

Thanks phil799. I will definitely have to look into that. I had a trip to Sigonella planned this summer to head up Mt. Etna, but plans fell through. I love Germany. We are actually headed up to Garmisch this weekend, but without the Jeep unfortunately. It will still be a great time with plenty of snow.

Thanks


Thank you for your post. I'd be interested in learning more about your experience. I was looking at a Chinese company making the hard top RTT's. Once you get the tent, I'd be interested to know the quality and if it was worth it. I look forward to learning more about your adventures. Thanks again.

I'm picking up the tent in Jacksonville Fl tomorrow, I'll post when I have time to install it and give it a review
