Hello! My name is Mark. I’m from Athens, GA. I recently traded in my Sprinter for a 2016 4Runner. My family loves to explore north Georgia and western North Carolina, and we are planning for a trip out west this summer. I joined this community to get advice about equipment and also safety. Since I travel with my family, getting home in one piece is high priority to me!

Good
Thanks for the warm welcome. I was totally surprised today when this was the entrance road to Allamuchy Mountain State Park.

We visited for the first time today for a short hike and will be back. The road only went on for about 1/3 mile but it was Overland enough to be enjoyable with many deep pot holes to avoid.

I have seen some Overland vehicles in the neighborhood, but not managed to meet owners. There is an old 4Runner with a winch, jack and lots of Moab stickers of it and this pristine Jeep I see at the train station

Good looking Jeep.

Hello everyone,
I'm from northwest Tn. I have been offroading for around 19 years. Ranging from 4wheeler's to trucks to full offroad buggies. Just got into trying out overlanding. Which so far has been a blast and probably my favorite style of offroading I have been apart of since my wife and dogs get to enjoy it more.look forward to learning what I cam from here and hopefully becoming knowledgeable enough to help others.

Hello everyone. New member from Denver, Colorado here. Driving a Chevy Colorado Z71 crew cab with 2 inch suspension lift, Falken Wildpeak tires, skid plates, sideshooter ditch lights, Retrax cover with Yakima Outpost HD rack, Yakima Skyrise HD RTT, and 2 Rocky Mounts Switchhitter LS bike racks. Ski/snowboard rack replaces the RTT in the winter. Truck is very much still a work in progress and I've changed a few things over time. Plenty of other upgrades planned too. I'm also an avid mountain biker, so if I can combine overlanding and mountain biking I'm in my happy place.
