I feel like if people were engaged/active we have enough members and resources for the US East region to be US Northeast and Southeast regions but I feel like the culture on the east is much more fractured and we all have a tendency to keep everything to ourselves.

FWIW this is the map of Overland Bound Members on the East Coast:

and most of those dots are many members since we do not show specific user location.

And with that in mind Michael... Is why most of us on this coast wish to break in down a bit. It is as simple as adding the Crew or Regional feature to the web-based platform, instead of the 'pay-for' app... I've bypassed all this by making a private group and more so by making another group on Reddit. I would like to keep it here though... if you folks will work with us a bit... you know... the membership folks.

Hi RJ, Thanks.

The app supports the same core Member features as the web in terms of functionality. If you are running into trouble with that, its a technical issue we should fix.

We don't have a crew feature on the web or app - but interested in your thoughts. By regional feature, what are your thoughts?

There is a US Northwest, a US West. And a US Southwest. But in the east, there is only US East and US SouthEast. We think it should be us NorthEast, US East (Mid Atlantci) and US SouthEast.

Yes, can US East be divided up as US Northeast, US mid Atlantic and US Southeast?

Although I would be ok with a Northeast/Southeast split even (PA/NJ up = North, below that as south)

I totally agree. Being a native southern Californian and living there for 67 years and getting my first 4x4 in 1970 then moving to the east coast 3 years ago the Offroad culture is totally different. I love the east coast, only thing I don't like is the lack of BLM property and open off-road areas. But I' adapting.

Yup and that is why most of us that have found spots keep quiet about them so they don't get shutdown. Closest thing we have to BLM land is North Maine Woods and even that is privately owned land.
