Hello. I am Paul H.
Right now I'm just running a completely stock Rav4. I'm working on getting it set up for its first trip. So photos will come as I get things done to it.
Location: East Texas
Rig: 2019 Rav4 XLE AWD (stock for now)
Overlanding Experience: None, I'm a novice in overlanding. I do have several years of camping experience and some backpacking experience. This is my entrance into overlanding.

yes a bit different and not as capable but it gets us around. lift wheels and tires are so new we have not been on a trip with this setup yet but I am sure forest roads even in bad weather should be just fine. A sxs in the future will get us everywhere else.
