2) Location: Phoenix, AZ
3) Overland Rig: 2017 Tacoma Toyota TRD Off Road (Build coming soon)
4) Overlanding Experience: Consider me a novice. Pretty much spent the first 25 years of my life in a hockey rink somewhere domestically or internationally.
Stoked to learn continually and enjoy the simplicity of the great outdoors through overlanding!

Gracias! Even if I have to postpone a move for a year, atleast I have the vacation time to take some time with the kiddo and go exploring west of here. Plan is to make the time for all the trips I've put off for the last 10 years and start seeing more of this country with my own eyes instead of through youtube and flickr

I do have a question.
As I prep for maybe my first overlanding experience...have any of you had any experience overlanding with a clutch based "on demand" lsd 4x4 vehicle? Will the lack of locking differentials limit my overlanding opportunities.
Granted I know alot of offroading is based of location and driving style.....
But in general (of course location matters) but in generasl ..do NF and BLM roads demand the ability to lock your differential to navigate?
Sorry for the newbie question...but it's one that has been nagging me.
Thx folks
