Hi!
New here.
Located in toronto Ontario Canada.

I drive a 2007 Toyota fj. Have put a 2 inch lift on it with 285 duratracks. Build a folding bed in the back, great for camping!
Have mainly been exploring in the past on a dual sport motorcycle. But the fj can haul much more and the wife can finally come.

Hi everyone! New member here from the Phoenix, Arizona area. My current rig is a 2012 Chevrolet Silverado crew cab Z71 4x4. I like to get out and camp and go off roading and wanted to get in to over landing too. My kids love being outside so I figured having more resources and friends to go explore the outdoors with. With that being said as far as over landing I guess I'd be considered a novice.

Current rig:

All accessories have been installed by me in my garage. 2 in. lift, go rhino grille guard and steps, 12k winch in a behind the bumper mount, tail light guards, tow mirrors, fender flares, uniden CB, and Wilson antenna. I plan to build a roof rack in the future too as a spot to mount more lights and for small storage.

I am also working on my future over landing rig, 1978 Chevrolet Suburban 2500 4x4



I look forward to meeting new friends and discovering new places to explore.

Hey guys!

New member here.
Im in the SF Bay Area.
After traveling around the Americas for 3 years in anything but my own vehicle, I am finally home and I am itching to find a way to explore this great country of ours.
I've spent my whole live car camping, hiking and all that jazz. Overlanding seems to be the natural progression for a never-ending adventure.
Looking forward to meeting you all!

New here but have been apart of other groups for a year now, some of you may know me
Names Juli, I'm new to this overland stuff, was originally a Honda girl, but when I got my current rig it all changed.
Live in Washington, but I'm from Arizona, I've also recently lived in Oregon.
Been to Cali, Nevada, Utah and Idaho all in the last year with my rig, can you guess how many miles I put on him since buying in December of 2016!?
I'll give you a hint its over 30k! Yup, I drive ALOT!

Ah I guess I should tell you about my rig, hes a basically stock 2012 FJ Cruiser.
He does have a OME 2.5 inch lift, and a couple lights, but thats about it.

Feel free to message me, I'm super friendly and love talking to new people!
