Hello All,

Location: Buffalo, NY

Rig: 2016 Jeep Wrangler Unlimimited (recently replaced my 2010 Xterra)

Experience: I would say I am a novice in what I think of as overlanding. I have been using my vehicle in one capacity or another for outdoor adventure for quite some time, and have been inspired to take it to the next level

Sorry for the massive picture!

2. California
3. 1994 YJ Wrangler 4.0, manual, picture is a little old. Currently, it has a softopper top, LOD signature bumper/tire carrier, and OME lift kit.
4. Almost no experience overlanding, mostly have just been going on nearby trails

Looking to build up the the YJ to be our overlanding rig for weekend trips. Maybe the occasional longer trip further down the line.

Glad to meet you folks!

New member here. I’m just a guy that likes to be outside and enjoying the world. I’ve wondered how it must of looked a few hundred years ago. Sometimes when I get off the beaten path I believe I see a glimpse of it. Perhaps you see that too from time to time.

Made it in. I’m so new to this that I don’t even have a rig. However, I’m looking forward to new adventures.

Howzit!
My family and I are located in Western Washington, frequently out to the mountain loop highway outside of Granite Falls or to Tahuya (fun day trips!). We have two overlanding'ish vehicles to bring out to the trails, an 87 Landcruiser or a 16 4runner TRD PRO. We chose overlanding as our hobby/ life because it's so family friendly and we are able to see things many people do not.

Hi,
For the past ten years my adventure vehicle was a phenomenal Unicat. It was difficult to part with but I'm now ready for something different. Please forgive my ignorance but are there any truck camper owners in this club or is it strictly for non-camper 4X4s? My current project/hobby is building the ultimate expedition-grade truck camper. I have a 2019 Ram 5500 4X4 crew-cab on order, I'm having a custom aluminum utility bed built, and I purchased a Cirrus 920 slide-in which I'm completely transforming. Please let me know if this is of any interest to any of you?
Thank you
Check the forums and search full size rigs. Lots of truck campers here.
