Hi Everyone!
After a bit of struggles with getting established here....
THANK YOU for letting us participate!
Soooo....I wasn't sure what "Overlanding" was but after a few videos and doing a bit of surfing I stumbled across you all!
I have a '93 Jeep Wrangler (YJ) that I have babied for years and modded it for the things I wanted to do with it. Many adventures and tons of stories but at this point in our life we are going to part ways. Not a bad thing...but with two dogs, a wife of 25 years, and literally wanting something that will be able to carry our gear...we need a different vehicle.
Don't get me wrong....I want to keep the "evil twin" aka the '93 YJ but with another potential kiddo on the way the YJ is not going to cut it. It will tackle just about any trail for off-roading but life happens and we are now looking for a small truck to replace it.
To be honest, I never heard of the "Overlanding" community until I stumbled across this forum while looking at videos on Youtube.
It seems like many of us in the 4x4 community have done this for a long time but now the term "overlanding" is new. TO US!
I have always wanted a Tacoma for many years....but now that we are going to purchase yet another vehicle (gotta sell the YJ to do it) both my wife and I realize that a small truck would fit our needs. Still awaiting the Ranger to hit the dealer as we have some potential issues with the Taco.
I want so say this before I post anything else.....the videos from Mike have been GREAT!
We spent the weekend watching just about all of them and it seems like this is an incredible community with NO JUDGEMENT on vehicles or why someone wants to get outdoors!
I look forward to being a part of this community and please bear with me with questions....I will have a ton!
Mike :)
