New guy from PA

Just joined, I'm east of Erie near the NY border. Lots of great information on this board. I'm in the middle of a mild build on my old DD F150. Looking for it to better support camping/exploring/mountain biking/hunting.

Welcome from NOVA/DC!

With that moniker I imagine you might be a hunter? :)
 
Welcome to Overland Bound from across the state @7mmremmag! I’ve really wanted to get something going towards the middle of the state but in the meantime I hope to meet you at any of our east region events!

Thanks for the warm welcome everyone!

Hey neighbor.. Welcome aboard.. I'm in the Jamestown/Falconer area..We're about 30-40 minutes apart. I'm kinda thinking a meet and greet for folks in our area is soon to be in order..

Yes we are, I mountain bike up at Harris Hill often.

That sounds like a good idea. I spent all day yesterday working on a fabbed bed for my truck. Looking forward to getting that done.

Yes, which is my main motivation for the mild build on my truck (nothing crazy for now fabbed bed and roof rack, some bulletproofing and gear organization, it's already leveled and on 35's). I hunt in a few states and areas so having a ready to go, well organized truck camping setup will let me concentrate more on the wilderness grocery shopping side of the adventure.

I've played with drag racing/fast street cars for years. This is a bit of a different build for me and I see it getting out of control in a hurry.
 
Interesting.. I helped build the original 4-5 loops on Harris..I haven't rode there for about 5 years now. I also was into drag racing and a few show cars..And I hunt,camp, snow shoe, used to trial run.. NOW it seems all I do is work..lol If you know where Serta Mattress is, just out of Falconer, I live right near there.
 
Welcome, i have married into family right outside of erie. Cant think of the town though. Frequent rum runners when up that way.
