Hello OB fam! I'm a new member and just got our new rig set up for exploration.

We've got a 2018 Subaru Forester XT Touring with some minor modifications, mainly centered around capability and protection. This goal for this car is to be a great daily, great for long road trips, and to be just capable enough to get to 99% of places that we want to go. It's not a rock crawler or a hard core trail rig, and that's what we want!

Getting the Fozzy ready for our first expedition. We're leaving tomorrow for Fayetteville -> Vail -> Santa Fe > Fayetteville.

Trips like this were the main inspiration for buying the Forester. Preparations include 1.5" Anderson Design & Fabrication lift kit, Primitive Racing full skid plates, Hankook Dynapro AT-M all terrains, Yakima Racks bars and cargo carrier, plenty of power cords and a converter, and my self-organized mix of recovery and emergency supplies tucked away in the back.

Hello everyone,
My name is Jonathan M. Coleman. I am completely new to overlanding and I cannot wait to get out there and get started. However I first need to get a vehicle that at least has four-wheel drive. I'm currently driving my 1995 Ford F-150 XLT with a 5-liter V8 motor. Any other questions I'll be glad to answer and I look forward to getting the chance to go overlanding with y'all.

What is going on OB! My name is Jamil and I am from AZ. I've had the privilege of exploring quite a few areas in AZ and have fairly recently ventured to CA to see what the state has to offer. The rig is a 2017 Chevy Colorado which has proven to be immensely dependable and more importantly capable. I have quite a few mods to the truck, but most notable being the Fox 2.5 coilovers and Dirt King Fabrication UCA. Looking forward to future trips with the crew
