Hello I'm Ruben currently living in the LP of Michigan. Current rig is a stock '07 FJ. I used to be Airborne Infantry so the concept of overlanding isn't new but doing it for fun is lol. Only mods to the truck are better tires but self recovery and comms are a priority. Looking forward to meeting new people and having fun.
Hello Ruben, welcome to the OB family.

Hi everyone!!!! My name is Rick and I’m from Orange County CA. I just ordered my 2022 Bronco base Sas and it will be delivered spring in f 2022. Meantime I’m starting my trailer buildout. I currently drive a 2019 Ford Transit 250 4x4 (½ work truck, ½ camper van) but I am ready to start over landing!!!! Looks like a blast. I’m an Eagle Scout and have been backpacking and camping my whole life. My first off-road rig was a 1996 4x4 explorer I twisted the torsion bars and put 31s on it and loved it. So I guess I have about 17 years off-road experience. Looking forward to getting out there and meeting some amazing people while making memories in nature

Hi Everybody,

Only been into overlanding for a couple years, but have been an avid longtime solo canoe tripper... changing things up a bit as I get older (47). Switching from canoes to vehicles, and bringing the wife along.

Location: Wisconsin!
Jeep Gladiator, 2021, Sport S, fully loaded with Max Tow.
Experience: As it relates to Overlanding, only a couple years.

20210522_145017.png

Actually just picked up the Gladiator a few weeks ago. I have added side steps and a hard tri-fold tonneau... will probably put on different tires as snow approaches.

I don't plan on doing much in the way of mods to this vehicle. It is only a part time overlander. I'm not into rock climbing or highly technical trails. Most of my wheeling is on light to moderate forest roads, two tracks, logging roads, etc...
