Hi Gary and welcome to OB! Nice looking FJ! Safe travels and enjoy those open roads!
Hey Everyone. I'm new to overlanding, but being in the outdoors and seeking adventure was instilled in me at a young age and pretty much solidified during the boy scouts (eagle scout here). I recently upgraded my 2012 Tacoma Prerunner to my 2015 4WD because I found myself getting stuck too many times while out hunting. Me and my wife love camping and I'm hoping to build a nice camping/overlanding rig (on a budget) so we enjoy some off road trails and spend a night or two away from the city.

Hi Everyone,My current rig is a 2001 Jeep Cherokee XJ-60th Anniversary.
I live in Moreno Valley, Ca.
My over-landing experience is novice but I am an outdoors kinda guy. I go hiking, backpacking and mountain biking any chance I get. I jumped into off-roading because I chose to chase a childhood dream of having a 4x4 vehicle, an ability to work on this project with my father and a desire to get deep into the back country and explore not so common areas. Can't wait to see where the adventure takes me!
Thanks,
Steve

Hopefully see ya when you make it back to a cooler AZ meet up.
Hey Steve and thank you for the warm welcome back! Yes, I'll be AZ in October. Hey, iIf you haven’t already, please complete my 50 State Road Trip Questionnaire so I will have your contact info when I’m in your area. I use the completed questionnaires to meet up with the people you see with me in my videos!

Thank you for your support man!

Location: South East South Dakota Rig: 2013 F150 xlt crew cab. When I first started seeing things about overlanding I thought it was just jeeps and land cruisers but I was surprised to find that good chunk of people are using fullsize pickups.
Experience: Very Little.
My family exposed to the joys of the outdoors early (weekend camping trips), and have grown to love and respect the outdoors. But I have always had a love for things that involve driving. I thought this could give me the best of both worlds.
Hi c_rotert and welcome to OB! Nice looking F150! Safe travels and enjoy those open roads!
Hello all,
I've been looking for more resources on this whole Overlanding topic and hope to learn a lot here. We live in Yuma, AZ but have lived all over the nation while I served these past 25 years in the Marine Corps. I have a 2016 Tundra TRD Pro with a Leer QX100 shell and Toyo Open Country's along with a 30" LED light bar on the front with NFAB side steps.

Welcome Spitz! This is a great place to learn all about overloading, so don't be afraid to ask any questions!
Hi McKingfish, welcome to OB. Like the Beamer, looking forward to seeing more pictures of the Jeep
Hi I have a 16 4Runner trail. Live in Topeka Ks and new to Overlanding and look to find more time to explore. Convinced the fiancé this summer on a trip to 4 National Parks that she does enjoy camping so we are looking for more trips. Thank you looking forward to all the suggestions and ideas.
Welcome to OB, I love your rig! I'm planning a trip to Big Bend over thanks giving, can you give me any tips/recommendations for trails and such?
Hey everyone, I have a 2017 Tacoma TRD Offroad. I'm from BC, Canada. Just a beginner at this but better late than never right? Just an outdoor loving girl wanting some adventure!

Just want to introduce myself and say hi. me and my wife been big into ATV's for many years. Usually hang in the upper WI area been been to Moab once.
Got rid of them a few years ago and now trying this overloading thing and so far loving it, back into the outdoors is where it is. Splitting the duties at times so far between a 2000 F150 and now a 17 Jeep Wrangler JKU. Not much in the area of IL where we are but WI is not far and love it for weekend adventures so far. Nice as we learn what we need and what we want as we outfit the rig.
Happy to be here and always learning about everyone shared passions.
