Hello, My name is Christopher. I'm not completely new to Overlanding but I am new to overland Bound and I'm happy to be here. I have been thinking of joining for a couple of years now but just never did until recently. I have a 2012 JK 2 door based out of Northern California. A couple of weeks ago my wife and I did our first desert run and completed the Mojave road. It was an amazing trip!

Hey all, new guy here from Maryland! Very excited to see and be apart of this group. I grew up camping and exploring in and around Maryland, unfortunately life took control and that exploration kind of fell off. I recently purchased a new Ranger and am using it as an “excuse” to get not only myself by my wife out of the house as I feel getting lost is truly a great form of therapy. Currently in the process of building a bed rack and getting some essentials worked out on the rig and thrilled to get back at it this year!

Hi everyone!!!

My name is Deler from Toronto,ON . I currently drive a 2016 ram 2500 which I'm slowly modifying to an aev prospector to take on longer adventures with the wife. I've done lots of camping throughout the years but I'd say I'm a novice at overlanding. I'm here to meet new people, get advice and learn from experienced overlanders and ultimately travel the world one trip at a time!

Howdy y'all!

I'm a Texan that has now made the Raleigh, NC area my home. I'm Paul and my wife and I are new to the Overlanding lifestyle, but are eager to get our feet wet. I have a 2009 Ford Ranger FX4 that I am starting to build into a mild rig. I'm hoping to get lots of advice, especially with finding trails and stitching together trails to create a little bit longer one.

New Member living in Middle Tennessee. 40 years ago we used to load our Backpacks in our Baja Bugs and go exploring and camping in the Deserts and Mountains of Southern California. Recently sold our Class C and still want to go Solo camping. Picked up a Truck Bed tent for my 2014 Ram 1500 and I am going to head out and explore. Don't seem to be finding lots of Overlanding equipment for my Ram but I own it and have the lifetime unlimited miles warranty so gonna keep it. Looking forward to learning what works and grow with each trip.

Hello all! Here to get some ideas on how to set up my new Tacoma as an overland vehicle. I have no overlanding experience in the USA/as a civilian, but I'm not a stranger to living in a vehicle, Hooah! I have a 4 years old boy and I plan on using overlanding to toughen him up! Please reach out with tips and tricks, what worked for you or not and if you had to do it all over again; where would you start prepping your rig?
