Do I belong here?

[Savannah_694a95]

Hey everyone. I have a 4x4 Super c that I use to boondock, and am going full time mid-July. I don't technically overland in the RV but I do wild camp and will be flat towing my Jeep for off-road adventures. Considering I don't overland like y'all do, and I don't want to be "that person" who pushes their way into a group, I'm not sure if I belong in this community. Please let me know your thoughts.

Yes ;)
There is no official accepted definition of "overlanding". Some pretentious folks may try to push that their personal definition is The Law, or some definition posted on a forum like this holds some sort of Statuary weight... it isn't and it doesn't. It's just car camping, or 4 wheeling to a tent setup, or RVing around to a camping spot, or maybe in Australia or South Africa might be long distance moto travel in remote areas, or any of 10 other "definitions" I've seen on internet.
If you're partaking of the outdoors, and you get some value from chatting with folks about camping, off roading, or any subject that is in a subforum here, then welcome ;)

Throw some Toyo M655's and a front locker on the Ford, and we'll call it even.

Best thread on describing wth overlanding is:

What is “OVERLANDING”?

OVERLANDING- by the definition of it, we can’t really do such a thing in the continental US. It’s car camping for most, or a 4x4 adventure for the rest...
