Member Introductions *NEW MEMBERS INTRODUCE YOURSELF*

Greetings from the UK,

I am newer to overlanding but not new to offroading. I joined to learn as much as I can and to improve my Jeep to fit our needs while we're touring Europe for 30 days. I am looking for any and all advice for what we could do better and to make our trip as successful as it can be with my wife and the dog. We have to make this last big trip in Europe the best it can be as we have to move back to the US in May.

Thanks for having us!

Hi blackcatjt,

We’re just back from a rally point where eight of us met up for a weekend.

As Kent says check out the rally points for activity!

Hello there!

1) I only have a mock up pic for now, but I've got an order in for a 2024 Bronco.

2) Houston area
3) 2024 Ford Bronco Badlands (pending); 1993 Ford Explorer (current)
4) Overlanding Experience Background (Novice or Experienced, you're welcome here!)
- overlanding, not so much. Most of my experience is from rock crawling, but I'm getting older now and looking to take it easy while still enjoying the outdoors, along with vehicle assistance.

Here's my rockcrawler 1993 Ford Explorer on 1979 F350 D60s:

It’s great! We have toured all around with it and have put about 38,000 miles on it in the UK. We have been from Land’s End all the way to John o’ Groats and all over in between.
