I'm a newbie to overlanding and glad to find this OB community - the name is Gordon, I live in Orange County, CA, and am learning off-roading skills in my 2022 Land Rover Defender 110 (below). Looking forward to learning a lot from this group, and contributing when I can.

New overlander here in N. GA. My wife and I are in our mid-50's and kids are out of the house. We have a 2020 Wrangler JLU and 2021 Gladiator Mojave. Mojave will be our primary overlanding vehicle. Can't wait to get out and start experiencing more of what our great country has to offer. Until retirement it may only be 2-3 weeks a year but we're going to try and make the best of that time!

Hello everyone my name is Steve and I live in Brookville Indiana. I drive an 86 chevy k20 and I'm slowly turning that into my overland rig. I hope here soon I'm able to meet some of you on trail and go out get lost in the woods.

Hello, I am Wyatt. I am very new to overlanding. Have been interested in it for a while but just never got into to it. I am from Columbus MS. I just got a 2003 Land Rover Discovery 2 And hope to get out and use it soon. It is also my daily driver. It needs some work but I don't mind that. I got a good deal on it and I have to have a vehicle anyway. I do hope to start installing some up grades for overlanding soon.

Hi Wyatt,

Welcome to Overland Bound!

Nice Discovery! So, 2003 - it´s already a 4.6 V8, right?

Greetings from Europe

Yes it is. It does have a few issues I have to work on. Valve cover gaskets and make sure they are no other oil leaks. Also I am ordering the brakes and rotors today.

Hey all,

I'm Brian, located in Temple City, CA.
Currently own an 05 Ford Super duty (keep threatening to buy something smaller purely to get off the pavement).
Have two young girls, looking to get them outdoors and off the beaten path a bit. Haven't put the camping gear to use in many years and that needs to change. Pretty much a novice with off-road and overlanding outside of a few desert excursions many moons ago. Hope to meet like minded people.
