Hello my name is Kevin aka “Lucky Strike”

Location: Carlsbad, CA
Rig: 2019 Subaru Outback 2.5
Overlanding Experience Background: Novice

My Background
I am an avid outdoor enthusiast. As a California native, I love to hike and film our beautiful mountain ranges here. I received my B.A. in Music from UCLA and, my MBA from San Diego State. My day job is working in sales support for AT&T selling networks to the USAF. I reside in Carlsbad, CA with my lovely wife and two cats.

My goal is to take this lovely Subaru Outback to places more adventurous than the garage it is pictured in. I have taken it into the Sierras numerous times but each time have left it at some wonderful trailhead. I feel it is getting lonely with this arrangement. So I‘ve decided to start Overlanding in it.

Welcome to Overland Bound Kevin
There is a large Subaru group on the forums that would be glad to help you spend money on your rig. ;-)

The wife has been hounding me for years to go camping for years but I really wasn’t interested in roughing it since I left the military. Looking at some of these setups and not being surrounded by a bunch of people has gotten my attention.

Hidy Ho Neighbor.
I'm Mike from Salt Lake, meet Clifford. She's only 2wd and bits me in the butt regularly.
A rudimentary rig with a simple bed in the back and a bunch of totes for gear.

Currently in the market for a 1997-99 Suburban that's worth the effort to build proper!!

I grew up in my Dad's 1995 and have a soft spot for those trucks. But maybe a GMT800 would be easier to own?
Look forward to learning from all ya'll.

Definitely excited to join. Colorado native and grew up camping in the mountains. Moved to west FL years ago had a family and here I am lol. Trying to get my kids and family out in the forest and to enjoy the outdoors like I do. Hiking, fishing, kayaking, camping are definitely on our agendas. I've been working on an unusual build for the family wagon offroader... I have a 2019 Kia Sorento lx v6 AWD, added a 2" lift, Yokohama geolander AT tires, alluminum front skid plate is on it's way from turkey... the interesting thing about th he kia is there are more options for offroad upgrades oversees. But I'm working with what I've got and enjoying it. The pic I attached of my white Sorento is mostly stripped down since it was the day it came back from the lift shop. Will be loaded back up again next month for our camping trip to north west FL. The fully loaded pick is from a build done in Australia. #goals. Thanks again and I look forward to being involved and hopefully meeting some like minded people down here in FL

What’s going on everyone!

Name: Gary “Zilla”
Rig: 2017 Silverado Z71
Location: Fort Worth, TX, USA
Offroad Experience: Intermediate
Overland Experience: Novice

About me: USAF Veteran, Hydraulic/Diesel Mechanic, Photographer, R/C Builder

Why Overland? Growing up my dad had a Jeep YJ that we took wheeling every once in a while and most of my favorite times were in the outdoors. He didn’t stick with it long but I now have my own son that I’ve been creating memories with and want him to experience the great outdoors and go on adventures. My other half and her daughter also love the outdoors and cleaning up the environment. So I’m wanting to expand my adventures and go camping outdoors and be able to rely on ourselves, even if it’s one weekend a month.
Pumped to see where we end up!
