Welcome to Overland Bound
As a full timer you will be able to get local information from our Regional Directors and they can also get you in touch with the local Member Representatives. For your trip to Yellowstone @Neal A. Tew is the Rocky Mountain Regional Director who is very knowledgeable about the Rocky Mountain region.
We have a full time member who started a full time thread on the forum that hopefully you will find useful. Still working on getting our full timers to post on it more.

Overlanding "Fulltime"???

Is Overlanding fulltime, still "Overlanding", or are you now just living in a van down by the river? :-) P.S. I'm now full timing it :-)

Howdy from Minnesota

My name is Matthew, a new member, and my wife is Vicky. We currently have a Toyota Tacoma TRD Offroad, and we had a Chevy Silverado previously that we used, but that thing was so big it barely fit anywhere beyond the standard forest roads. We're hoping the Tacoma helps us get into some of the more interesting and unique places we've been wishing to go to.
I'd say we're still fairly novice in the world of overland, though we've been doing it for about 8 years now in both the US and Taiwan (my wife's home). Though we're primarily in the US, if we are in Taiwan for a more lengthy amount of time, we usually go with friends or rent out a Hilux or an older Delica.

Hello everyone!
I love nature and I started building my 2016 Ram rebel for the purpose of traveling in North America Ihave a hardtop claim shell tent on the ARE Overland cap solar system with back up 2200 generator I also purchased a teardrop trailer last year to head out to Tuktoyuktuk and touch the Arctic ocean then in February had an accident and lost my leg. This has not stopped me from still doing the trip getting a prostitus in July and going on my journey in 2022 . I am capable of staying off grid as long as my fuel lasts Now I am a new member here but if anyone is interested in joining me for an adventure to the Arctic ocean we can plan a good time .
