My name is Casey I'm looking to make new friends I'm from California. I used to drive a 1998 Toyota 4Runner SR5 and now I drive a 06 expedition sport Trac. I used to be a weekend warrior for off-roading and now I daily drive it. I'm off reading five six times a week because of my job allows me to do so. I quit my tech job working on websites and applications and marketing and sales. To do a job so I can get closer to off-roading so now all my jobs consist of things that allow me to off-road more which I'm able to off-road 7 days a week now. I'm a full-time off-roader I'm part-time at work

Hi there Casey,

Welcome to OB from us in France.

Cheers Paul and Nicky

New member here!
Name: Adam
Location: Bergen County, NJ
Rig: 2002 Dodge Ram 1500, Stock. No big plans on mods, but who knows what the future may hold
Experience: None. My family loves to go camping, hiking and enjoy the great outdoors. I think Overlanding is a natural extension of that. I don't see us doing anything crazy, but I would love to explore areas that we maybe otherwise wouldn't get to explore or experience.

I joined because I stumbled upon a New Jersey specific trail that my family and I are very interested in trying out. I think this may be a great introduction into overlanding while combining it with some camping.

Hey Everyone

I've decided not to sell my 4Runner, and instead keep it for the long haul and double down in realizing the overlanding dream. Look forward to learning from you all!

I'm in NE Ohio. Not much around but woods and cornfields...
I have a 2019 RAM 1500 with a 6 inch lift and 35/12.50r20.
Unfortunately I don't have any real experience yet... unless you count the potholes here (Ohio folks know what I'm talking about!)

I would really love to take a trip out of the Colorado/Utah, but that's just a dream right now.

Hey Everyone,

New guy to the forums here. I'm in the NW suburbs of Chiraq.

I've got a 2023 Jeep Gladiator Overland. Stock right now but I have a 4" lift and 35" tires in the garage waiting to go on.

I'm not new to jeeps, but relatively new to overlanding. I used to do a lot of rock crawling and have a lot of experience building jeeps for that, but now I'm older and want to be able to take the kids out and experience nature. I look forward to meeting some of you guys along the way!
