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.

View attachment 200531

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...

Welcome to the team, Great looking Gladiator. Now if your Jeep starts to talk to you at night - I need more mods just reach out to the team for some help. Jokes aside, I'm right there with you on Light moderate forest roads..... Safe travels!

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

Kent,

Thank you for the response.....yes, I've heard all the horror stories on my diesel. lol So far so good, the engine is the 3rd generation. The pistons went out at 20,000 miles the last 2 generations, I'm at 18,000 so we will see.
I look forward to many adventures, thank you!!
