Hello Everyone,

My name is Matt, from Central Ohio.
Currently driving a 2012 Ram 1500, slowly modifying to fit my needs though ram boxes are a blessing and a curse.
I'm glad to be here. Looking forward to conversation and inspiration.

Hi everyone,

Currently in the Los Angeles area, but spent most of my life in the North Bay, near San Francisco.

I have a 2004 Nissan Xterra with a manual transmission. Only upgrades are all terrains and a steel bumper from Coastal Offroad I welded together.

Grew up driving my dad’s 85 Nissan 4x4 pickup in the woods. I’m actually planning on selling the X soon and turning the old truck into a new rig. Over the last 7 years I’ve taken the X on several multi-day back country trips with friends, mainly California and Nevada deserts. Took a clinic with Badlands Offroad Adventures a few years ago too. I’m always up for learning techniques, equipment, and hearing others’ stories. Happy to be here.

Welcome to OB, Sean! We're glad to have you here. I'm excited to see what you do with the old Nissan! Enjoy OB!

Hi!

I'm Hollis Cameron and I drive a 1996 Land Cruiser. It's great to finally join the community after all these years.

Welcome to OB, Hollis! We're glad to have you here! I thought I found two 80 series Land Cruisers the other day sitting in a local car lot, but the guy who owns the lot had no interest in selling them, I'm keeping my eyes peeled though! Enjoy OB!

Greetings everyone,

I joined today, live in Petaluma, CA. and drive a 2016 Tacoma Access Cab that’s an ongoing work in progress. I’m new to overlanding but not new to taking the occasional weekend camping trip. Definitely looking forward to meeting new folks and getting out.

Cheers, Paul

Welcome to OB, Paul! We're glad to have you here. Enjoy!

Hi Everyone

I'm Lance in Foley Alabama with my wife Cindy. We love watching YouTube vids of dirt roads and dispersed camping and wanted to try it. We have a 2019 Toyota 4 Runner. The first thing I did after getting it last year, was to get rid of the street tires and put on all terrain shoes. We have been rigging our ride and campaigning it in Alabama dirt ever since.

Welcome to OB, Lance and Cindy! Good looking rig! We're glad to have you here, Enjoy OB!

 

[ZRex]

Been here for a while, but never formally said “Hello.” From the T-Town area and mostly overland by myself, but am certainly open to meeting like-minded folks. Love the Talladega area and N GA. RTR!!

Hi Everyone!

Been a member for a while. I have an 05 ML500 getting the offroad treatment. Its been a blast and is such an underrated chassis. I hope to find more here! I live in Bowling Green KY and go up into the Appalachians a lot.

Welcome to OB, Jimmy! I enjoy those Mercs, let me know if you get into the East TN area, I'd love to run a trail or two with you. We're glad to have you here. Enjoy!

Welcome to OB, Matt! We're glad to have you here. I was just in Dayton, Piqua, and Ft. Loramie this weekend visiting family. We've got a family farm in Ft. Loramie that I may have an opportunity to take over but I'm not sure if I'm ready to leave TN just yet. Enjoy OB!

I lived in Asheville for 11 years, spent a lot of time all around WNC. I haven't made my way to the snake yet, but I live on 321! Spent most of my time on the Parkway with the bike but have been around most of the twisties in WNC and the Dragon of course.

Bro you gotta hit up shady valley. Very worth the drive. You'll see some of the best bikes/riders around too. Just be careful of the Floridians dragging pegs on thier cruisers lol

It's on the list. I had to go to Mountain City the other day, but since I was in my tractor trailer I chose Doe valley. I haven't explored as much out that way as I'd like.
