So while I may not be able to join you on most of the complex technical trails from lack of ground clearance, I love a good multi-thousand-mile road trip staying in the vehicle, so thanks to a friend in Florida for linking this site we decided to sign up for membership numbers together since we're planning a overlanding trip in the next year together in our respective vehicles.
I'm likely one of the few here in what most would think is an everyday car, but I actually picked the car because the seats were comfy enough I could fall asleep in them easily and was in fact the deciding factor in the end. Combine that with a shockingly large amount of cargo space and good tire selection + availability once I switched to 16" wheels, and it's a great road-trip machine.
So far she's been through roughly 9k miles of road trips last year in the first 3 months of owning her. Kansas City <-> SoCal in November and another time Kansas City <-> NorCal in January and I ran smack into major stormfronts each time, once in Colorado and once in Wyoming.
Or when she's a bit cleaner and when my actual wheels came in finally instead of using a set of steelies so I could still make the originally road trip since I had a deadline and couldn't wait another 2 weeks for the backorder:
I hope to post more photos over this winter from my adventures I have vaguely planned, the last few times I've been too busy driving safely and enjoying the views to think to stop and take any snapshots.
