Hi, Mike here. My wife, Jess, and our two kids, Luke and Kathryn, comprise Ramblin Fever Overland. We are relatively new to the overland community. While I have done my share of off roading and backpacking, we have little experience combining the two. We are excited by the possibilities and we look forward to the journey ahead.
Our rig build is in the early stages but I have put a great deal of thought and research into the project already. I greatly appreciate all the content creators out there who contribute there experience and knowledge. In a nutshell, here is what we've done so far and what we plan to do in the future. I will add more of the thinking behind the build in a later post.
