Hello all. New to this group. Im Tommy, from the southeast. Looking foward to learning from others and hopefully help some as well along the way. Current rig is a 07 H3 in the beginning build phases.
Welcome to the OB crew, to get started on your overlanding journey, head over to the Boot Camp threads here in the forums, there is a lot of useful information on almost every aspect of overlanding, be sure to ask questions, our experienced overlanders here are happy to answer questions and offer you advice. Be sure to check out the vehicle build threads, there you can find lots of ideas to incorporate into your own build. Keep us posted on the status of your H3 build, they are not a very common choice for an overlanding rig, although if I had one I would build it out to travel.
I appreciate that. True the H3 is uncommon which is why I've chosen it for my next build. I've always used jeeps for my trail rigs, now its time to break away from the everyday norm and see how the hummers do. Lol. Thanks again.

Hello. Matt from Allentown, PA. Just starting to learn about overlanding. I've had a F150 for a couple of years now, and am hoping to get it out on the trails soon!

Justin here from Pittsburgh, PA

Recently sold my very well built Nissan Xterra that was more of a rock crawler / off-road toy.

I now have a 2018 Toyota Tundra I plan to overland and explore with. Always looking to meet new friends to get on the trails and share some campfire stories with. See yinz out there!

Before and After’s:

Hello overlanders! I'm McKade Huntsman, currently in San Antonio, TX for my last assignment in the Navy before I get out and move back to Utah this summer. I'm excited to get back to all my favorite spots from my teenage years in Utah, and would love to make some friends and get some advice for trips up there. I look forward to talking with you all.
Current ride: 2017 Tacoma sport (with a lift and some wheels/tires and a roof rack and whatnot)
Hello McKade welcome from Phoenix.

Cheers from Beautiful San Diego, California. I'm new to this forum but not to most of the aspects of overlanding: off road travel, camping, truck building / customization, etc. I'm excited to meet the folks here , hear your experiences and learn a few tricks and tips.
Welcome to the OB crew, tell us about your rig and we love pictures
