-) Oshkosh, WI
-) 2006 Dodge Dakota 4.7L (just bought it, fixing it up first)
-) My experience is pretty limited to gravel/dirt farm roads.

Just starting to get into it. I've always traveled around state parts, but nothing really off road, and I want some new experiences, so I'm starting to build a rig off the dakota.

Firestorm,
Welcome to the OB Community.
I hope you get a chance to share pics of your build and share lessons learned along the way.
I'm looking forward to seeing what you do.

First time posting here. I am located around Fort Leonard, MO. I recently purchased a FJ60, would like to find other cruisers in the area to explore the close to the Ozark’s.

Oh I love the look of that!

Hey everyone! :) I just signed up and am excited to connect. I am new to overlanding. In fact, I don't even have my 4x4 vehicle yet, but is about to buy it. I'm living in Denmark, Europe and want to explore Norway and the Pyrenees (Spain, France, Andorra) soon. Anyone else here from Denmark (or close by)?

CigoL,

Welcome to the OB Community. Sounds like you have some pretty awesome plans for the future. I'm no where near to Denmark, I'm a USA East Coast Virginian.
Are you looking at any particular 4x4 or just anything you can get a good deal on?

We definitely want to see pics when you get it.

John

We are a world wide organization, but yes North America is the largest concentration of members. Contact @Robert OB 33/48 and @El-Dracho they can help get you started in your area.

This is so cool, being worldwide. It makes me want to travel even more. I love seeing the post from others about their trips. I doubt I will be able to ship my vehicle over seas to hit some of the trails but maybe I could rent a rig one day and explore the spots and hook up with other OB members.

My bucket list keeps filling up.

thanks @Bengt N... we have a few things at the top of our list to get sorted... I want to fab a tent lift which will be a bit tricky mounted to the hinged lid and we need to get the spare mounted somewhere. Hope to get it out for a shakedown run in SE Mo next weekend

Hello everyone. My name is Rodney Neill.
I've recently joined this website in an effort to learn more about the Overlanding community and its wide variety of vehicles.
I am not a 4x4 or an overlanding person per say however I would like to sincerely learn if my product line is a viable option for this community in any way.
Simply put, my products are magnetic methods of storage. Not earth shattering, but they have worked fairly well for those currently using them for their applications.
I have until recently stayed in the original industry which they have been designed for which is the Nuclear Security Industry & Law Enforcement.
I plan to travel this year for some of the meet ups and hope to meet some of you folks.
My IG's are @tactote , @tac_tote_travels, < My Tacoma can be seen there, and the newest account is @tac_tote_overland.

Location is Western Massachusetts. Look forward to meeting some of you!

Hello Rodney, welcome to the OB family.
