Filled out the 50 State for you. Look forward to an opportunity to meet up. Hard to compare the Midwest with some of the places in your videos out West. But we have some gems hidden along the way.

Joined a few months ago . I was looking to find myself an old J10 Jeep for overlanding, but didn't work out . I have owned Jeeps all my life. Decided to go with a nice 2017 rubicon Hardrock to build an overland rig. Just started building her and will be testing out the new suspension and shocks this weekend. I have a ways to go for completing the build . I will be attending Overland Expo East to look at whats available for gearing up the rest of the way.

I have put a ton of miles on my Jeep already finishing 16 of the eastern Jeep badge of honor Trails.

Im more of a minimalist , but now that wifey has become interested , she is now throwing a curveball at my overlanding approach. We will see what I end up with by October when I have the rig finished.

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.

Hello from Michgan. I'm just getting back into over landing, although the we never called it that. I Just picked up a stock 2003 Land Rover discovery 2 that I'm going to t down and then build up. I'm up in Michigans UP now dropping my daughter off at NMU. I wish I had the rig here. My wife and I will get out a do some exploring in our pickup before we head back to Grand Rapids.

I enjoy watching all the vids on YouTube. I'm looking forward to being part of the group.

 

[Mogwai]

Hello from San Diego. 2013 Land Cruiser that I bought March of 2016 for the purpose of a reliable, comfortable, and capable vehicle that could also be my DD. Taken over dozen trips since getting the truck: Anza Borrego x 5, Easter Sierras/Mammoth/Bishop x2, 10 days across Mojave Trail to Canyonlands to Moab to Zion to Bryce, Pismo Beach for Turf n Surf, and a number of local runs w/ the local TLCA chapter - Beach n Toys.

Next trip I'm planning with the family, which I may look for some input from all of you will be to Southern AZ/NM area over the week of Thanksgiving.
