Welcome to the OB crew, looks like you have a nice setup.
Thank you! Happy to have found so many like-minded people!

We're pretty proud of what we've accomplished in the year since we started. Both of us were already pro at camping, but this has taken it to a whole new level. We constantly get comments on our roof rack. Yes, those are lights AND cameras. We are both IT nerds and set up cameras not only for security, but to record our adventures on the NVR we have wired inside. The front light is 40k lumens and the side lights are 20k, so we can easily record at night as well.

Hola OB Folks!

Shadow Overland here (a.k.a. Fred) Why Shadow? I'll tell ya some time, but that's him in the pic.
Location: West Palm Beach, FL

Rig: 2018 F150 SuperCrew 4x4 w/ a 3.0L Powerstroke. The rig pic is Christmas 2020 fresh out of the shop with a 4" BDS suspension lift, Teraflex Falcon sport tow/haul shock system, Deaver HD rear left springs, 35x12.5 Toyo Open Country AT IIIs on 18x9 Mamba M25s

Experience: Been off-roading since my teens getting stuck with my buddies every chance we got, but went home every night. The sleepovers outside are new. Getting some additional mods this month and then starting the bed rack / storage / sleeping bed in February. Looking forward to meeting other members out on the trail.

Howdy yall,

My name is Andrew and I am a newb at overlanding. I recently purchased my dream truck (Chevrolet Colorado) and I am looking to take it on trails in Texas or just about where ever with the proper planning. I live in Fort Worth, Texas and I can't wait to explore this upcoming spring/summer. I hope to meet some friends. :)

Howdy Snapless,

I see that you are from San Antonio, Tx. I used to live over there. That is an awesome looking photo. If you know of any people from Texas that go on camping adventures I would love to tag along. I would love to plan a trip to Big Bend! I never been.
