Welcome to the Overland Bound Community. Where are you from? What are you driving? Probably the easiest way to get started is to get with a group that is local to you and pick their brains. There is a big difference from driving over rocks and loose sand. Your vehicles capability can only get you so far. But then it might surprise you too.

hello and welcome to overland bound

as for your questions it all depends on what you want to do , and where you gonna ride (bit of differences from east cost to west coast wheeling) the type of wheelng you want to do from mild to wild , or overlanding . like you said for roaming this site its easy to do and its divided in sections like gears , etc so you can find alot by looking at articles on here , or try to find someone or a group near you that is into what you want to to (like a 4x4 club).

Welcome! As others note, it depends on your focus, if you're planning to drive to Argentina, then your focus (and the forum areas) will be different from that if you plan to go rock-crawling locally.
