New member to the forums, glad to be here. Our family of 5 loves the outdoors and Overlanding. We live in Titusville, FL (Near the Kennedy Space Center) and love to travel and explore anytime we can.
Our primary rig is a 2014 Jeep JKU.

See you on the trails!

Howdy!
Brian & Mike - jointly Yeti4x4DMV. We're old Navy buds that found ourselves with a couple of TRD OR's, one Tacoma and one 4Runner, both in Lunar Rock. We though it'd be fun to adventure the trucks some. We're based around the DC area and are hoping to take a bone stock Tacoma and slightly modified 4Runner out and about to explore more of the region. Happy to meet up when we're able and VERY open to suggestions for areas to explore. Hope to meet soon!

Hello, I'm Ginger from Seattle.
I have an 06 4runner with a spacer lift, a budget and comfy offroader.
Done Tahuya, Washington BDR, and other trails in WA.
I'm a beginner, I haven't done crazy recoveries or anything like that.

I plan on doing the pan-american highway from Argentina to USA early next year, but I'm having a hard time understanding the legalities of buying a motorcycle as a non-resident in Argentina.
If anyone could point me in the right direction, I would be grateful :)

HI Ginger,

Welcome to Overland Bound!

That sounds like a great trip you ae planning. Regarding your question you could check the OB Map for members in that area, message them and see if they can help you. Maybe @Alanymarce (based in Colombia) or @Gustavo Amaral (based in Brazil) can help?

A good resource for information like that is also the Horizons Unlimited HUBB.

Greetings from Europe,
Bjoern

Hi all. New member “worlwind” here.

We have spent the last 5 years, off and on, in our Ford E350, 7.3L diesel conversion van (“Indie) with 30 gallon water tank, UJoint conversion, sleeper pop top, party lights… it’s been a blast. We have now purchased a 2022 Earth Roamer LTi (“Herbie”) and are looking forward to more learning about trips, maintenance, recovery tips, etc. We’ll be selling our Ford E350 and will list it here. We look forward to meeting many of you. We live in Park City, Utah.

Hi Alfred & Sylvie,

Welcome to Overland Bound!

If you like, take a look at the Rally Points for planned events in Europe. There you can filter by region. Italy, for example, belongs to the region Mediterranean, Switzerland, France to MidEurope. There are plenty of meetups planned for this year and 2024 for Europe already. We also do a virtual campfire once a month, there are always members from many regions of Europe. We usually do this in the winter months and then pause it in the summer when many are on the road. Just join us next time if you like.

As I've already written on your status comments, I'll have a look at my recorded tracks later on, which might help you on your current trip. I'll let you know if I find anything helpful.

If you have any other questions just ask, please, always happy to help.

Safe travels,
Bjoern
