Hey yall I'm Stephen, a 17 year Army Combat Veteran who loves adventures and the outdoors. Just wanted to introduce myself since im new here. I live in NE Arkansas. My family (MooreOffroadTeam) and i go out as often as we can. we wheel a 2016 Toyota Tacoma with some small mods and a RTT. The Ozark National Forest isnt far for us so we love going out and finding new places. Id say our skill level is Experienced but mainly to the off road trails, we dont go rock crawling much. Anywho, feel free to add me and share your pics and adventures with us. Hope to see yall on the trail.

Hello everyone! Excited to get out and explore. I live in North Texas, Wichita Falls. I just recently spent the last 18 months rebuilding a 1994 FZJ80. It is now a LSFJ80. I swapped the motor with a 6.0 LS motor. I do have a youtube channel that has some of the work I did to it. I am an active member on the IH8MUD website. I an newbie to OVERLANDING and still shaking out bugs on my truck. Looking to get out soon with my two young sons to start shaking down the rig and equipment.

Hi Adam,

That´s a great rig with the engine swap I guess. Enjoy your trips with it.

New Members,

Welcome to the Overland Bound community! Please take a few moments to introduce yourself so we can get to know you!

A few things you might want to include in your introduction are:

1) Picture! If you have a rig, we want to see it!
2) Location (General area is fine)
3) Rig (Year, Make, Model, etc.)
4) Overlanding Experience Background (Novice or Experienced, you're welcome here!)

We're glad you've found us and look forward to sharing our adventures with you!

In addition to getting to know you, here are the guideline sent to all Moderators of the forums. It's a natural reflection of our community, and what Overland Bound is all about:

From @administrator
  • Overlanding is: "Vehicle Dependent Travel". Nothing else.
  • We will not further define "overlanding".
  • "Capable" depends on the requirements of the trip, and we take that very seriously.
  • You are an Overlander: Overlanding is for everyone who has exploration and adventure in their heart, or, who need to be reinvigorated by connecting with nature. Nature is unforgiving. You must rise to a certain level of personal awareness to survive. Sound right? Overlanding is for you.
  • Encourage uncomplicated ventures into the great outdoors. Don't over pack.
  • Be prepared, and understand basic requirements. Question folks, to be sure they are aware of what is required. Don't assume.
  • Share without reservation, trip locations, and information.
  • It doesn't matter what you drive: The only requirement of an Overlander is that the vehicle serves the job required, safely.
  • We do not care about make or model.
  • We do not engage in "this is better than that" competitions.
  • We DO give advice about how to make your vehicle ready for what you need. Share knowledge.
  • Humility.
  • We respect, fear, and protect nature.
  • "I don't know" is a great answer.
  • We don’t brag about exploits.
  • We seek answers from the community when we don’t know.
  • We engage in the very smallest interactions.
