Hi my name is Lukas I’m based in Seattle WA, after looking for all over the internet in ranger stations, and talking to people about good trails and campsites, one day I finally found overland bound well looking for overland videos on YouTube. I’d say I’m a novice in trail experiencebut intermediate in knowledge of gear, recovery, and good modifications. I drive a 2007 Toyota Tacoma TRD off-road,(only used the rear locker twice)the only mods done by previous owners are leveling kit and cold air intake. Any help and advice on mods would be great, and I hope to tag along on future events. View attachment 140482

Here are a few tips to get you started:
-Check out the local region's forums for events and meetups in your area.

Hi folks,
Niall here based in Colorado Springs.
Picked up a 2020 Tacomo TRD Pro a couple of months ago and slowly modifying it. New to Overlanding in the US (been here 3 years) but used to do a fair amount in Africa years ago.
Welcome Niall, to the OB community. What part of Africa are you from? My wife was raised in the then Belgian Congo as a missionary kid, and went to boarding school outside of Nairobi.

Will do. Thanks.

One thing i am curious about is any regional overland expo's. Like most of us (i am sure), I am gearhead and like to see & play with new stuff.
The Northwest Overland Rally is coming up in June located in Washington (at work on my phone right now or I’d look it up for ya).

I just joined overland bound today. I am excited to join this community of likeminded people! I am an architect by profession and an Army veteran.
I drive a 2006 Land Rover LR3. I would say that I am a novice/intermediate at overlanding. I really enjoy building up my truck and just ordered an iKamper skycamp for it. I have been upgrading my truck slowly since I bought it back in 2006. It has been on many trips including several Boy Scout adventures. I am a scout leader with our local troop.

Love the Land Rover! I've got a 4.6l Range Rover. How are you liking the LR3? Looking at possibly making it my next rig?
