Hello, my name is RJ, I currently live in the Midwest but I move frequently for work so who knows where I could be overlanding in a couple of years. My current ride is a Lexus GX 460. I am new to overlanding but I have done some pretty significant off the beaten driving path during my time in the military and I'm no stranger to "camping" in the middle of nowhere. My first trip will be the continental divide trail from NM into CO. Thank you for all of the compiled resources here!

Hello all! My name is Chuck and I live in Northern California. My current overlanding rig is a 2000 Nissan Xterra that I've owned since new, but had been stored for the last eleven years due to demands of work and family. Before that I had a 1978 Jeep CJ-7.

I'm retired now and restoring my Xterra as an overlanding rig with a goal of overlanding throughout North America.

Whats up guys, new to overlanding and honestly new into even hearing about this. Sounds like my dream lifestyle and building out my truck with this specific goal in mind sounds like a great way to spend a couple months.

Im from Jersey, assume not much good off roading around here, had a tacoma and took it a few places but excited to explore and adventure outside of where im from.

I just got a 2017 chevy z71 silverado 1500, used to have a 21 tacoma trd or but it got totaled RIP

Like i said im brand new to this whole idea and experience. I was sheltered growing up and missed out on alot of the things i enjoy now a days.

Hello,

My name is Jacob

Location: We live right outside of Charlotte NC

Rig: We have a 2011 Nissan Pathfinder that’s completely stock

Overlanding Experience: None! My wife and I want to start overlanding, we both love to camp and travel so combining the two seems like a natural next step for us.
