Unfortunately I sold the white truck after 10 years of adventure with him. I sure do miss the old boy though. The OBS Fords are one of my favorite body styles.

I like the body style, but not the brand... although for some reason I keep getting suckered in... I tried to make the switch to Ram, and after two great second gen rams, I am back to Ford OSB... Bit I really do like my Bronco, and will probably have it for a very long time to come.

Hello everyone, my name is Dustin.

I Recently picked up a 2019 Tacoma, I am new to the overland community, not so new to off-roading or camping. I picked up a free spirit recreation RTT, and look forward to exploring, off-roading, fishing, and meeting other members in this community.

PS: Im a photographer on the side, if you'd like shots of your rigs reach out Id love to join on a nice weekend getaway.

Vehicle: 2019 Toyota Tacoma (TRD Offroad Package) 6ft bed
The truck is stock currently, however I plan to make some upgrades in the coming months and I'm not afraid of getting her dirty.

I have lots of camping gear anywhere from; glamping or roughing it. I look forward to seeing you guys on the trail.

Location: San Francisco Bay Area and frequently in Reno NV area to visit family

(I spend most of my time exploring the sierras or high deserts of CA and NV)

Hey Overland Bound! I'm Stephen from North Carolina. I bought a 2018 TRD Off Road with the goal of travelling to hard to reach places and haven't done much of that in the last year and a half. I'm ready to change that and hoping to meet some fellow enthusiasts along the way. This is all new to me but I'm looking forward to the adventure ahead.

Rig: 2018 4Runner TRD Off Road
Experience: Beginner
