Hello, my name is Joshua Parker. I live in Riverside, California. Originally from Carlotta ,California. My family and I enjoy camping and traveling as much as possible. Our rig is a heavy/long 2021 Ram 2500 megacab diesel. I can off-road too much, but I can tow just about anything. Will be upgrading suspension as soon as parts are available. Looking forward to meeting new fellow travelers and learning as much as I can.

Hello.

Found this site while doing some research on a couple of overland trailers I've been investigating, Turtleback Expedition and the OGT Expedition 2.0. I like what I've seen so far so I signed up to continue mining info about those trailers before making a decision.

Thanks to all who've contributed their experiences with each trailer as it's extremely valuable for folks like me when you have limited opportunity to see these trailers in person for a proper inspection.

Good Morning, Just applied for membership. A few things about me. A few things about me, Hmmm, let see what is worth telling. I am retired from the US Navy Submarine Force, and then I retired from the US Forest Service where I worked in Washington, Montana and Oregon. Managed a few fire camps over the years in most of the western states.

I have had a jeep of some sorts since 83. Wheeled in all the western states some place or the other. Every thing from a 56 cj5 to a 05 tj. I am right now working on a deal for a 16 JKU. I prefer jeeps.

Now days my wife and I like to find a secluded spot to camp and for me to do a little flyfishing which I am not very good at but I do catch one once in a while by pure luck or chance. lol. WE have a particular spot that we go to on the Wynoochee River that is right down the kind of camping we really like. We no longer have a M416 trailer with a tent on top. Just a tent camper now but we are looking for something else that will give us a little more comfort in the wilds of the woods and that search continues. Here is a few pictures of our quiet place on the wynoochee.View attachment 190400View attachment 190399

Hi all, my name is Chris. I live in Arlington, VA, but originally from Santa Cruz, CA. I’m building out an overland rig, the ‘19 Ram Rebel pictured. I’m new to overlanding, I guess, but have been an avid backpacker and camper my whole life. This community seems pretty awesome, so I’m hoping to engage with folks and possibly meet some overlanders in my neck of the woods.
