New guy here! My name is Danny and my wife and I just started getting into the "Overlanding" scene recently. We currently live in Des Moines, Iowa but are looking to make the move west to Colorado!

We own a 2010 Toyota FJ Cruiser (Iceberg White) and have many plans to outfit it for our overlanding needs. (RTT, Storage, Fridge, Recovery Gear, Communications). We also recently signed up to become members of this community! Can't wait to display our badges on our rig!

Here's a some pictures of the rig!

Location: Palm Desert, CA (Coachella Valley)
Rig: 2015 4Runner Sr5 (Icon Stage 1, 285/70/17 Nitto's, GOFSR RTT, Baja Rack, Demello Offroad X-Wing sliders)
My name is Joel Aguilera, I would say I'm a beginner/ novice to the movement. A group of coworkers and friends formed our team, which is 4 rigs strong at the moment, who love getting outside and exploring. There is nothing like it! I'm looking forward to getting into the community, to learn, and to grow as an Overlander.

What's happening guys,
Kris here from Evanston, a suburb of Chicago. I am new to the Overland game but not new to adventures that take me into the backcountry. Most of the pictures I will post will probably have my bike on rack as I am avid mountain biker.

Current Vehicle - 2015 4Runner TRD Pro awaiting delivery on Gobi rack and ladder along with some other goodies
Experience - Got some skills as I have been driving 4Runners on and off road for the past 10 years and a Jeep before that.

Greetings,

My name is Mike and I’m out of Atascadero CA. My wife Lindsay and I drive a 1993 GMC K1500 z71. Our overlanding experience consists of yearly remote week-long camping trips, such as to Downiville CA, but nothing that really pushes the capabilities of our truck. We're also both avid mountain bikers and compete in XC races throughout the year. My background is an odd mix of diesel mechanics, IT, and Military. I was a certified master diesel technician for John Deere heavy equipment before becoming an active duty Marine in 2009. Now that i'm out of the Corps, I sit at a desk all day working in IT. I still have all my tools and often look for reasons to tear the car or truck apart in the garage.
