Hello from VA!

IMG_0249.JPG

Brand new Rubicon with no upgrades....yet. Took it off-road camping last weekend and going again this coming weekend and haven't made a payment yet! [emoji6]

Have had several rigs over the years. Last one grenaded a year ago and gave us the excuse to get what we've always wanted. Wife and I have done a lot of off-road camping and touring without knowing it was called overlanding. Very eager to meet up with new people and see new places.

Very new to forums lol!

Just bought my first Jeep-

Owned trucks (GMC and Toyota) before and 1 minivan! LOL Kids are now old enough that momma can go back to her roots!

Total Novice as its been too long since Ive really been out on any trails. Would love any help or even farting around on a weekend sometime in the valley.

Too funny! Same here. Usually had older truck for camping and a minivan for wife's daily driver but now she's upgraded

My names Jason. Purchased a membership back in Jan but forgot to ever sign up for the forums. Its been a busy year and haven't had time to get out much but I'm always thinking about the next adventure!
1) Picture! Heres a fairly current pic. Not much has changed except a different grill. Taken North of Phoenix while visiting my sister after attending Overland Expo West this past spring.IMG_4732.JPG
2) Location DFW, TX
3) Rig: 2017 Toyota Tacoma DCSB TRD OR
4) Overlanding Experience Background: Novice, I grew up camping and hadnt been out in a long time. Due to health issues I cant really hike much so in order to get out away from the masses I came across Overlanding and knew right away this is how I could still enjoy the great outdoors! I had never offroaded before buying my truck a year ago. Since then I have been learning the do's and donts of offroad driving along with the most important part, my own capabilities as a driver.

Hi all. I joined recently and live in the North Central area of Washington State. I drive a stock 2001 GMC Sonoma that I have taken on forest service roads and the like but have no other overlanding experience. I look forward to getting involved.

I created a newbie thread, but I'll say hello here, too.

Hello :grinning:

There's more info in the other thread, but I'm in Oklahoma, and while I drive a couple of different 4x4's, my overland rig project is my first vehicle, which happened to be a 1985 Jeep CJ7 Renegade. And a pic for effect :wink:

Hello everyone,

I´m Slevin and I live in the north of germany. Just purchased a member emblem and signed up for the forum.

I drive a 2001 Honda CR-V. It´s the first gen CR-V face lift model with 5-Speed manual transmition. Got it in December 2016 from my grandfather who owned it for 15 years. Just noticed I have no pictures to hand right now but I will fix that next weekend.

Don´t have a lot of overlanding experience but I´m an expert at not getting stuck with a 2WD in muddy terrain.
