Morning Everyone,

I've been a member on OB for about a year but starting to get more involved. My fiance saw me reading through the site and learning, so she surprised me and bought the membership. i'm #15491

Name: John Ronquillo
Location: Rockland NY
Vehicle: 2002 Yukon XL

I've had a lot of experience out doors, grew up as a scout & have done a lot of dispersed primitive camping with friends, within the past few years i've been adding the overland aspect with my family, it's a great way to experience the out doors & see different things. It's also my excuse to get my daughter out in the world and see there's so much more than the area we live in.

Thanks guys, hope to get to know & meet up with some in the future.

Hi
I'm Thor

Location: Tronderlag. Norway
Rig: 95" Land cruiser hdj80
Experience: Novice+.
Been offroading a bit with my last rig (Patrol y60) sold it and regretted it instantly so I bought my hdj80. Took a 6000km trip last year with my family and got a good feel for it.

Hi all. Am a very new member who has always been interested in Overlanding. I grew up in Virginia but have been in Florida for many years. I bought a Toyota 4Runner 4x4 in early 2018 and its time to put it to use.

I’m just starting to research trips that I could do from Florida fairly easy & over a long weekend. I’m thinking the Georgia Traverse might be the place to start? ‍♀

Location: East Coast of Florida, New Smyrna Beach
Rig: Toyota 4Runner SR5 4x4
Experience: nada, zero, zip other than what I did with my dad over 20 years ago.

Hello All!

Dylan here reigning from the PNW. I have my family vehicle/DD/Mild off roading rig its a 2003 Chevy Suburban 2500.
Right now it just has Cognito UCA level kit, volant CAI, magna flow exhaust, and bilstein 5100s all around. Next on the list is a black bear tune.

I am definitely a novice when it comes to overlanding but now that my kids are getting older we plan to start on some easy trails.View attachment 76747View attachment 76751
