Welcome to Overland Bound

 

[Lone Wolf 1965]

Hello OB!

Matt from Pearland, TX.

Rig #1: 2021 Ford F150 Powerboost - 32" Nitto Ridge Grapplers, 18" matte black method wheels, 2.5" leveling kit, KB Voodoo bed rack, Decked system, etc.
Rig #2: 2022 Ford Bronco Black Diamond - 4 door, hardtop, 32" AT on stock steelies
Rig #3: 2021 Taxa Woolly Bear Overland Trailer - Roam Vagabond XL RTT, Truma Fridge, Renogy Solar panels, etc. etc.

I would say we are a fairly experienced family. Visiting a lot of state parks, national parks, etc. but completely off-grid we are learning the tips/tricks. Always looking for a reason to get out, meet new people, and just be outside as much as possible.

Thanks everyone!. Looking forward to the awesome adventures and getting to learn from this great community. Got my badges today. Only seems right to add them to the rig till I take my vacation end of February. Still planning a couple day camping trip.

Hi everyone, I’ve been lurking here a while finally decided to introduce myself. Old_school from the Jersey shore. Not sure I would consider myself an overlander or an off-roader or both. :) I have a 2 door wrangler JL , it’s to small to sleep in, so its tent camping in a Jeep on the beach, fishing. . Here is a 360 video of a relaxing sunday drive on the beach.. (yeah I know, hard to believe it’s New Jersey)
