Hey everybody how are y'all doing? My name is Will and my wife is Britta we are new to the Bay Area and found a video on YouTube from overland bound and thought it was pretty cool. I've been wanting to get out and hit trails since we moved here. We use to live in Maryland we moved out here for my job we drive across country to move here and it was the best experience. We both have jeep wranglers but we are going to outfit mine. We don't have any experience with overlanding but looking forward to learning.

IMG_1085.JPG Hey everyone, I am new to this whole overlabdon thing but not 4x's. I have enjoyed modding and off-roading many. I hope to meet some people and get ideas on stuff to build for outfitting my rig. Which is a 2013 Tacoma double cab long bed. (Trail limo) It currently sits with 2.5"lift up front and 2" in the rear. My wife and I both grew up in small town USA and have a love for the outdoors that we hope to pass along to our kids. We have lived in Seattle for almost 20 years and are looking to get out and explore more.

Thanks, I will be pretty occupied most of the winter. Baby boy #2 is due in a couple weeks. I will definitely be looking for people to meet and get some more experience navigating my long ass truck through some trails come spring time.

Howdy all,

Location: Southwest Ohio (between Cincinnati & Dayton), USA
Rig: 2016 Toyota 4Runner Trail
Experience: some backpacking & hiking, lots of car camping (I've done lots of bike racing).

The reason I bought the 4Runner and began searching the Overland/Expedition scene is my bucket list. I've been wanting to get "out west" to ride my mountain bike for some time now and I never could get away from work long enough to make it happen. I can retire shortly so I can finally make this happen.

first mod - added the sleeping platform from my Honda Element for storage (bike rack on the floor also fits, will hold a 29er in the back standing up).
