Great group of people, I used to be a member way back in the day. I had a mint '96 Disco SE7 and would meet up w/ the club, and they'd roll in and show off their dings and dents from their last adventure. My wife was like, "No way are you taking our Disco out with them..." :-) The best was...

Ok, gear advice needed. I bought some Columbia convertible pants (legs zip off for shorts), at the Hike House in Sedona years ago, for around $100. I like them, but the pockets aren't deep enough and they seem to be woven so they let water pass through them. They're quick drying but you get...

How do you like the JT? I'm debating trading my 2016 jku sport for one... either v6 6spd, diesel 6spd, or rubi 6spd... have to drive them all... But I love my jku... :-( Decisions, decisions

I have my tech license (KN4BLI) and a few 2m/70cm radios, a few ht and a few mountable radios I inherited. It's a rabbit hole, though, but it's fun! I need to mount a permanent antenna, route my wiring, and decide on a location for the mounted radio. So far I've just used a ht with various...

Just added bumper and winch. More goodies to come...

Well, I understand - I'm an east coaster, there's just not many places to go here. There are, if you go to them. I just got back from a trip to AZ, where I rented a 2018 JLUR from Barlow Jeep, and hit the trails in Sedona. It was awesome! Next time I go, I'm taking my '16 JKU. But, that's...

I think I saw that movie. It didn't end well, if I recall correctly. Actually, that's how trails get closed... (seriously). Learn to wheel, learn what to pack, learn what you need (and don't need, I think personally overlanders are way overloaded), try it out close to home, then hit the...

Get Michael and Corrie to 'put it on the roadmap'... (such IT speak haha) - a land-use sub-forum. Also, affiliations w/ Tread Lightly, and/or links to their site (and others) would be good...

Why not do both? Join a local club, AND join OB? Help steer OB toward "Tread Lightly" and other pro-4x4 activist groups, so we work together (not that OB isn't, but we all could be MORE environmentally better/aware, Michael even says this on the video). One thing that I DO know, local clubs...

Just wanted to get the word out, after listening to the complaints of OverlandBound_fake on the youtube podcast. Here's a trail cleanup for Alabama's Talladega National Forest, FR 600-1 and 600-2. Info on the Alabama Overland FB page, and their website...

Welcome! Nice rig! Always like those GC's, especially w/ the wheels you've got on... :-)

Good luck and God Bless, we'll have to meet up when you get back. Stay safe!

Welcome Rubyredfozzy! I'm across the river from you in Auburn. We need to do a local meetup - maybe we can get some OB'ers and/or Peachstate Overland/Alabama Overland people together somewhere between you and me...

How often do y'all meet? Looking to get out and meet some peeps, I may drive up from Auburn and meet y'all - my parents are in Marietta (I'm an ex-E. Cobb boy so don't hold that against me :-P) so I could stage out of there. I may have missed 1/7/18 if you are monthly on/around that date, but...

What happened to the event? Will it be rescheduled? I'm interested, can drive up from Auburn. Thanks - Chip

I jumped on as a maybe, if I can get away for the day I'll swing up from Auburn. Parents are in Marietta so I should be able to stage out of there. As for gate closings, there used to be a page w/ up-to-the-minute (day?) statuses of all gates - let me see if I can find it and I'll post it in...

Nice posts! I rent a cabin just north of Deep Hole on the Toccoa, one of my favorite places to fish. That, and the dam to TN border. These look nice, maybe next time I go I'll take my fly rod AND Jeep and get in some sights... Thanks!

What is preventing you? That might help with what you need. Sent from my iPhone using OB Talk

I would put it on the drivers or rear, or a 270o drivers/rear, also due to the direction the tailgate swings out. Hey, for my clarification, what is a JKUL? Thanks!

When (if) I do finally regear, I'm going to look into the cryo treatment! Will probably wait until I break it, or it becomes unbearable (it's liveable down here on the plains). That's pretty cool! Thanks!
