Guest, UPDATE We went through the site migration runbook and completed all steps. We will need to complete the migration next week, but will leave the forums up for the weekend. A few days after maintenance, a major upgrade revision to the forum site will occur.
Add me to the OB ranks. I am a father, husband, Park Ranger, Coloradan, and 4runner owner.98 4runner, 4x4, elocker. Mildly modified. 3" lift, roof rack, winch, and a ton of maintenance. Built a drawer system, because it's nearly impossible to fit the wife, 2 kids, Belgian shepherd, and gear in this thing.
We typically only do one-two night trips, so overlanding is pushing it for us.

Welcome from New Hampshire.
Hi guys I am brand new to overlanding. I have done many different forms of offroading in the past, motocross, 4x4, prerunners so on. I have also done alot of road racing as well. My wife and i love to camp and she wanted to get back into it and i thought overlanding. Mix her love of camping with my love of being off the beaten path. Look forward to having many fun adventures. I do not have an "overland" rig yet but will be starting my build soon on a 2003 gmc envoy (trail blazer) not my first choice of vehicle but hwy when its free ya run with it.
I love the rig. I have a 04 avy my self but its 2wd and was a work truck. I love them tho.

Hey man welcome, glad to know there are others around me. Im just over Ortega from you in san juan capistrano
Agree. It will be a bit since my rig has not come yet (probably another month or 2) till then i am working on building up my gear and supplies
I had an 02 4WD Avy once. [emoji106]
I recommend checking your steering box if you wheel it at all and reinforcing it so it doesn't egg out the mounting holes, not an uncommon issue. Otherwise good to go.
