[AKBushDag]

Hi everyone! My name is Brooke and I'm in Ohio. Ordered my membership badge and should be here any day. As of today, I have a 2017 Toyota 4Runner TRD Pro. I ordered it back in November of 2016, and it's finally here! My brother is JKU Overlander so give him a follow. (we're TRD_JKU_Overland on Instagram) We're looking forward to hitting up some trails so we were happy to find OB. I love that it doesn't matter what you drive! Looking forward to learning some new skills, checking out new areas, and... of course CAMPING!View attachment 18805

Nice! Very nice,,

1) I will update the post with a picture later!
2) Minneapolis, MN
3) 2006 Ford Ranger Ext Cab
4) Complete novice! I grew up getting myself into trouble with my parents Jeep, and now it is time to make better decisions with a vehicle of my own. I love camping, and I love road trips. Figured this was a great way to do both.

 

[NW4XForester]

Hello,
I'm new here but not to overland or off-roading.

I'm in Federal Way, WA

My rig is a 2013 Subaru Forester with a good amount of mods.

I have a fair amount of knowledge about overlanding, off roading and recovery but there is always something new to learn!

Thanks! It's a work in progress, I have a hand full of mods lined up in the next few months.
Rear bumper with swing away is next, dual battery system after that.

Hello all! I live in the Twin Cities area of MN, drive a 2015 4Runner Trail, and I guess I'd consider myself a novice. I have years and years of camping and outdoors, but I'm pretty new to using a vehicle to see it all. The photo is of our annual bird hunting and fly fishing trip last September to the Gallatin Forest in Montana.

Hello Folks,

My name is Dr. Tejas Kothari. A periodontist by profession and a passionate offroader / overlander all the time!

I'm from Mumbai, India and my OB number is 3278.

These are my two pride and joys:

The Pajero NL for over landing and the Mahindra Jeep (with a Toyota truck engine) for harder offroading.

I'll start a detailed thread about my vehicle soon.

Welcome! Wow, it's so great seeing all these members from all over the world. I was in Mumbai in 2009, very interesting place. :-)

View attachment 18579 Hello all! I am OB3740 and am currently located in the Phoenix, AZ area. I have a 2017 QuickSand TRD OF Taco that is currently stock, but I cannot wait to start turning this into my ultimate Overland rig! I am new to Overlanding, but 4 wheeling has been a staple in my life since I can remember.

Welcome! It's great having you here... I have to say, that color Tacoma and package right now is one of my biggest rig crushes. I see them around and LOVE them! Very nice.

Hi Overland Bound - we are @advanturing and excited to be here in this network. We are from New Zealand but join us as we first build out, then explore the parks & backroads of the Pan-American continent in our Sportsmobile 4x4 Sprinter Van. 2017 is our 2nd year living on the road and we look forward to driving to Overland Expo in Flagstaff in May before heading north to Yukon and Alaska. Our van is a lowroof 2016 Sprinter 4x4 144 with Sportsmobile conversion and poptop by the team in Fresno. All the photos of our trip and adventure to date are on Instagram. Look forward to seeing you on the trail. Eze 34:25

@Bamse where did you get that username? :)

 

[jz8ty]

Hey everyone.
Im from Ontario Canada
I started offroading in 2011 with my 81 toyota pickup, mostly day trips. I quickly found myself falling for the overland lifestyle. Longer trips, camping off the beatin path and exploring our beautiful province. I trade my pickup for a family friendly 80-series landcruiser! Best trade of my life!

Hi All,

I joined a couple of weeks ago and consistently get interrupted when trying to introduce myself...

Currently I am city locked due to work and family, but am looking hard at easing up and getting back to the true outdoors. In support of my wife's preference (her current idea of camping is to stay at a motel 6) I most likely will be looking at slide in campers with a potty once I decide on the truck.

I look forward to spending more time in the forums.
