2) Location (General area is fine)...........................HB, CA
3) Rig (Year, Make, Model, etc.)..............................2006, Chevy Avalanche Z71 That is my current daily driver, but looking/trying to decide between Toyota (4Runner, Older Land Cruiser, maybe a Taco or a Jeep (really up in the air over this, leaning to a LJ or a Wrangler unlimited).
4) Overlanding Experience Background (Novice or Experienced, you're welcome here!).................A lot of camping, car camping, and backpacking experience. Looking to translate that into Overlanding.

Getting my Ham license (hopefully on 5/21) and
