Hello everyone,

New member here. Currently located in San Francisco, CA (relocating to the Research Triangle area of North Carolina in a couple of months though). I have a few overland adventures under my belt and I am looking forward to meeting more overlanders and becoming part of the Overland Bound community! My current rig is a 2007 Tacoma seen below after attempting to cross Soda Lake at the end of the Mojave Road.

1) I will put a picture up soon, I am waiting on a couple more items to get here in the next week or so.
2) Albuquerque, New Mexico
3) 2017 Toyota Tacoma Off-Road
4) Intermediate- I’ve done quite a bit of off-roading, but my wife and I are getting into over landing and have quite a few trips planned over the next 12 months. We love meeting new people and are looking for other people in the area who want to hit the trails!

Hello everyone,
Brand new member. I decided that I would really enjoy exploring after recently retiring. My wife is adamant that we get a small travel trailer to visit the national parks and forests. I recently purchased a 21 Ram Rebel thinking it could do both. I’m definitely a newbie on dirt. I’m looking for the exploring not rock crawling. Looking forward to meeting like minded folks on the trail.

Hello Everyone,
My name is John and I am a new member here and also new to overlanding. My wife and I have been wheeling for about 5 years and we also love camping so are looking forward to doing some overlanding. We have a 2020 Jeep Gladiator Rubicon and have built it up for overlanding. Looking forward to learning more about overlanding and meeting new people.

Hi forum world,

Joining today after making the decision to transition from single day off-road trips to overlanding. We have always ran Jeeps and I recently parted with mine to purchase a Ram 3500 to overland with. As you can imagine, the build plan is moderate since this beast isn't exactly nimble. Looking forward to learning from the community and seeing y'all out there.

Hello All! Chris here… I’ve been lurking for a few months and watching a ton of vids on the OLB YouTube channel as well many others. I’ve gotten into adventuring later in life, but after some positive real life changes, I’ve made a pact with myself to get out and do it! I’ve got an ‘07 Xterra now, but I’ll be selling it and downsizing a bit. Looking forward to some Northeast trips soon. Cheers!

Hello!

I'm KC. I've been a long time lurker and admirer of all things Overland. I'm finally transitioning from backpacking to care based travel. I've car camped in dispersed sites and dabble in 4x4ing but I'm an overland novice!

Looking forward to engaging with everyone and learning more and more.

No pics of the 2018 Sahara JKU because it's currently getting some new installs :)

Good afternoon everyone, I’m Jeremy. I just joined the group today, looking forward to all of the resources that it provides. My wife, Shari, and just purchased a 2021Jeep Galdiator Mojave that we are going to set up over the next few months. We have done overlanding, just a long time ago and decided to get back into exploring our surroundings.
Hello Jeremy & Shari, welcome to the OB family and thank you for your service.

Greetings,
I'm in the Jefferson City, MO area.
I just recently acquired a 2005 Dodge 1500 that I intend to do some work to in order to do some overlanding with.
Most of my experience has been lighter overland trips but I intend to step it up some and gain some more experience.
