Hello,
Name is Dan. I’m new to Overlanding. I just finished my rig build. Well, almost. I still need a back bumper. Been building it out for about six months now. 2022 4Runner TRD Off-road. I was raised in the mountains north east of Fresno, ca and grew up around 4x4 but I wouldn’t say I’m an expert wheeler. I’m sure I still have a lot to learn and am always 4willing! I currently reside in Santa Barbara, Ca with my lovely wife, kids and two dogs. Oh, and two hairy cats. Here are some pics of my rig.

2) Space Coast Florida.
3) 2022 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon Pretty loud color, but I live near the beach in Florida and hey my first car was a Clementine Orange VW bug.
4) Recovering RV’r. Still love backpacking. The only off-roading I’ve experienced were gravel National Forest roads in my 2wd VWs. But I am ready to learn about getting into more off roading than I am familiar with! I just like being in the woods!

Hi Toxicbatman, welcome. Nice build you have going. This is a great place to learn and I would also encourage you to connect locally with OB Members. I've learned a ton from them here in Denver.

Hello fellow Overlanders,

I'm stoked to be part of this community, as many others I should have joined long ago.

I'm based in the Midwest since July of 2021 and call Kansas City, MO home.

I've been fortunate to have had opportunities that took me to the four corners of the globe, to include journey with my rig in the highlands of Scotland.

I've been mod'ing my 2018 Ford Raptor over the last years and as most would agree...it's never complete. But I'm at a good point now. Tuning my suspension to carry the overland load has been my biggest headache.

I look forward to collaborating with th
is community.

Cheers.

Niko G.

Hi everyone. Paul from North Carolina, USA. Just bought a new Jeep Wrangler 4xe And plan to do some upgrades very soon. I've always been into overlanding and anything outdoors. I thought this would be a great way to keep my 10 and 12-year-old sons appreciation for the outdoors. Anything to get them away from their cell phones and computers.
Hi Paul, your kids are going to love it and welcome to OB!
