Traveler I

Hello Overlanders! My name is Brian and I live in Illinois about 40 miles northwest of Chicago. My daily driver is a 2016 JKU Sahara. It sits on a four-inch lift and 35-inch tires, so I'd like to start using it as an adventure vehicle as well. I'm new to overlanding but looking forward to learning the ropes and getting to know some of you.

Hello all! My friends call me Jody and I live in New Braunfels, TX. which is in between San Antonio and Austin. I am a novice to overlanding. When I was young we would overland camp at Little Shell and Big Shell on Padre Island to fish. Since I've become single again, I've wanted to pick up where I left off. I look forward to making new friends and hopefully learning something along the way.
My rig, which recently became my daily driver for a while, is a 1998 ZJ.
Welcome to OB, it would be nice to see your 1998 rig

Hello all,
I’m Nate, originally from PA (NatefromPA). I now live in the Seattle WA area. I am new to off-roading & Overlanding but I love adventure. I spend most of my free time in the mountains with my dog Piper. We enjoy exploring forest roads and anything else outdoors. I just got a new JKU (Big Chief). I’m in the process of upgrading. Bumpers/winch are done, next, lift & tires. I’m not really into hardcore off-road but don’t mind a few scratches here & there. I work an odd schedule that is constantly changing and figured many of you all do too. Looking forward to meeting other adventurers.

Aloha from the vast province of Los Angeles on the island of California. :D

I'm new to overlanding but love the outdoors. I just purchased a used 2015 Subaru Outback and am looking forward to getting some dirt and mud on it. Now, to figure out where to go first...

Subaru is a good rig to get started, there's a short review of a Subaru by OB what got some amazing upgrades done to it! Worth checking out!
Stay safe and keep trekking!

Great to know. I need my vehicle to also be my daily driver.

I’m excited to build it out. I’ll check out the review.

Thank you!

Hello, My name is David. I live in Central Michigan and enjoy exploring with my family. I am working on an overland trailer that we hope to take to Moab within the next couple years. I currently own 3 jeeps but my 2008 JKUR is our main adventuring rig. I look forward to meeting some of you on the trails.
