Me too. Wanted one but the wife decided she likes the looks of he Grand Cherokee better. The Commander is a very formidable vehicle.
loved the commander, bummed that they were gone by the time I was ready to buy. Welcome!Hey guys! My name is Nathan and I would consider myself a moderately experienced off-roader, but a novice Overlander.
I live in the Denver Colorado area.
This is our current rig. We pull a tent camper with it and love exploring the US by road. We just started our little family so we need something fairly large and comfortable. We also currently have a Land Rover Discovery 2 but it has a surprisingly bad backseat for car seats. So the plan is for my wife to take the Commander and I am gonna sell the Disco and buy a Jeep Cherokee XJ to build out for local mountain adventures.
Excited to be a part of this community!

Welcome to the forum. Post pics of your trailer when you can. I need some inspiration. I'm hoping to get n m101 or m416 trailer to build on this summer.Hi all, I have been watching the you tube channel for awhile now and I decided to join the forum, mainly cause I am looking for some inspiration on a few things on my trailer build, I have a moderately built 91 jeep XJ which is dependable as they come I'd drive across the country tomorrow it has about 218k on the original motor, transmission (ax15) and transfer case some of the mods are trussed ford 8.8, trussed hp Dana 30 with Eaton Elocker, WJ knuckle swap, Chevy one tie rod ends, 4.88 gears on 35' KM2s, we just built my trailer last Friday still needs more work but the frame is complete and it rolls. I live in Oklahoma and love the outdoors I have been wheeling for 4-5 years now while I enjoy hitting the rocks I really enjoy going somewhere I have only been on a handful of adventure trips I sure do like it. I am also a licensed amateur radio operator aka "ham" (AC5XJ is my callsign) which really goes well with overlanding. Thanks
I will, we built it from scratch from 11 gauge 2" square tubing and 1.5 round tube. I will do a build thread for it once I find the proper place to post said thread, I was hoping to find like section just for trailers.Welcome to the forum. Post pics of your trailer when you can.

I'd post it in the vehicle build thread for now. I'm sure it would be fine there. Wish I had fabrication skills. I've been starting to use the mig welder at work, but not a lot. So I'm looking for a used military trailer I can mod and put an RTT on top of it.I will, we built it from scratch from 11 gauge 2" square tubing and 1.5 round tube.

Greetings and salutations! You have lots of other members in your area.Hi, I have been following the overland videos on youtube, and really enjoy them. My interest in overloading has grown over the years, and I believe it will compliment my love of backpacking in the great outdoors. I live in the bay area, and love trekking in the Sierras. I currently have a '09 Subaru Impreza Outback Sport, and have never overlanded it. It's not suitable for any hard core overloading, but it gets me to the trailhead. The plan is to convert the sub into a Taco. I look forward to meeting up with and sharing some brews with overloading pros in the near future.

Welcome, Jimmkle, from another Subaru owner. We've got a couple of members who have made extensive modifications to Subarus; FozRoamer with his Fozzy, and Grant with his Wagon of Doom 2016 Outback. Mine is much more mild, meant for forest roads and light trails.I currently have a '09 Subaru Impreza Outback Sport
