I'm not sure if I am supposed to start a new thread or add a post to the other one so I'll do both.
I'm David and I live near Possum Kingdom Lake which is west of Ft Worth, Texas. I've grown up camping and doing various outdoor activities. Last year I built a camping/overland/expedition trailer. I'll work on a build thread for it soon. There's a long story to it but I'm mostly finished with it other than new wheels and tires, another coat of paint, a few odds and ends, and some bed liner touch up work. It's a never ending project honestly. I just bought a 2017 Tacoma TRD Offroad after trading my 2015 Tacoma in. It is 100% stock still but I really like it. I also have a 1992 Landcruiser that is mostly stock as well. I recently installed a Dobinsons snorkel just because it was easier than installing the 3" Dobinsons lift I also ordered. I'm saving the lift install for the fall when it's not 100 degrees outside. Why a snorkel? Cuz I like it. No other reason. :)
My son is 3 years old right now and we go camping quite a bit but we generally stick the state parks because that's what's relatively close. We have been to Colorado and Big Bend for "bigger" trips. My favorite additions to my camping setup are the roof top tent and ARB fridge. I've been following "Overland Bound" on youtube for a long time but finally got the membership and joined the community.
The camping picture is from Big Bend area of Texas. No matter where you're at it's a long ways away. This was before installing my Dobinsons awning. Yes I plan on changing the wheels it just hasn't happened yet. I bought the trailer tire/rim combo and plasti-dipped them so it doesn't look so bad.
Freshly installed Dobinson's awning.
