Looks like I should say hi here...
I'm Scott, and when I go out I have my wife, two kids, father-in-law, and 2 dogs in tow
Things get tight in our 2015 4Runner TE, but we manage.
We live in the Washington, DC area - but hope to move west again soon.
That pretty much sums me up.

Cheers!

quite the posse! Welcome to OB

Hello,
My name is Tobe, And I'm addicted to wheels.
I'm a East Bay native. Currently driving a 2002 TRD, or a M1031 CUCV (when it's running).

The past 10 years I've done most of my backcountry exploring via bicycle. One of the more epic journeys was Klamath Falls OR. To the Columbia river gorge. 90% dirt/gravel roads. A 6 day trip, with some days doing over 85 miles a day.

Finding a community that shares your passion and interest is important. I look forward to reading about everyone's adventures and seeing pictures (my Instagram shows most of my pics instagram.com/taoracer). When time permits, maybe we'll even get to meet and make some memories!

I've been into cars and tinkering for as long as I can remember, And nature is a necessity. It seems only natural to combine and explore!
Thanks for welcoming me into your community.

Thanks! I like the rack because i can attach things to the side. I just made a shovel and axe mount the other day.

Hi my name is Preligen.
I live in the Bay Area in California.
I own a 2014 Chevy Silverado (stock).
I'm new to the overlanding community.
The only off roading I've ever done is going the Hollister Hills off road trail a couple of times.
I'm currently upfitting my truck for travel.
I would like to someday go with you guys on short trips.
Thank you for building this site.
I have learned a lot and have inspired me to travel and enjoy the outdoors more.
I look forward to meeting some of the members here.
Thank you!

New member to the forums! Not YET a member with emblems but I plan on purchasing them soon.

I am originally from Seattle, WA but I'm currently living in Southeastern Virginia due to my wife being in the military. I am married with a 4 week old daughter and a dog. As a family we love camping and exploring this new area we live in. I grew up camping, wheeling, hunting, and fishing in the PNW so I would say I'm an experienced overlander.

I have owned a lot of rigs in my short time of being able to drive and I'm currently(hopefully for a long time) driving a 2004 Toyota Tundra DoubleCab 4x4. It is all stock with the exception of a canopy and some all terrain tires. Plan on building it up with a mild lift, 33's, lockers, all the necessary armor and gadgets. It will be a long build pending funds but I will do all the work myself which is far more rewarding to me.

I hope to begin overlanding more in the future and hopefully will meet some of you down the road!
Happy travels!

Welcome to the forum and congratulations on the new addition to the family.

 

[Nick_W]

Greetings.
New member here in North Carolina.
Driving a 2013 Toyota Tacoma Double Cab Short Bed. Currently stock with exception of add a leaf.
Also have an 67 M416 that I've butchered into a good little trailer with rack and RTT.
After the first beach trip with our newborn (turning 1 tomorrow), we decided he required too much stuff and work began on the trailer.
Our first adventure with it will be next month.

Nick

The Tundra is a really overlooked, undervalued Overlander. It's got all the good of its more famous little brother, plus a V-8, and a better interior (arguably). Nice ride.

I love this truck. It perfect size for my needs. We need to see more turned into overlanders!! Thanks for the warm welcome all!

Hey there, new here. Living in Charlotte, NC. Seems like a really nice place - I've been watching the videos on YouTube and finally decided to join. Emblems will come next.

Here's my rig, Marlena - bought it as is, and I'm putting the finishing touches on it for family trips around the region and maybe a few out west.
