Hey everyone,

New to to the crew here. My name is Eric and I'm up in Northern Colorado (Fort Collins). Mildly experienced in overland travel by 4x4 and motorcycle. Recently picked up a 2012 Toyota FJ Cruiser Trail Teams Edition that will become our primary family over-landing vehicle. Also have a 2000 100 Series Land Cruiser that is soon to be relegated to popup camper pulling and 16-yr old daughter tank.

Looking forward to contributing to the community and see you on the trails!!
Eric

Hi All,

Dean here. I'm a new member from Chicago. I've done a fair bit of research and reading on OB, but wanted to join to ask for some info for an upcoming trip through WY (Flaming Gorge, Red Desert, Pryor Mountains). Oh, and the rig's a '96 4Runner.
Hello and Welcome to the OB Family!!

Hello all, Brian here. I've been a member for a bit, but haven't really ever posted. Starting to get more interested in overlanding in my Tundra. I've been on ADV motorcycles for a while, but want to take my wife and dog with me on trips as well so they can experience the awesome places I've been.

I'm located in Buford, GA.

Hi everyone! I'm Dylan.

I live in Washington state, but spend a significant time in Utah where my wife's family lives.

I've been participating in different groups and hitting trails for about 4 years. My first vehicle was a 2005 Toyota Land Cruiser, and I'm currently driving a 2006 Lexus GX470. Looking forward to meeting new people, and learning new things.

Picture is from the White Rim Road a week ago!

Hi My name is Alex and I am from Denmark in Europe. I have a 2006 Toyota Land Cruiser. When I am on overlanding we drive to Sweden where the opportunities for overlanding are much greater than in Denmark. We do not have a roof tent, but use a regular tent on the ground.

Well hello everyone, my name is Brandy. We are new to overlanding but getting ready to test drive a Taxa Tigermoth because we think an off road camper is the way we want to go in our old age LOL. We have 2 trucks a dodge ram 4x4 and a Ford f250 also 4x4. We mostly use the ram for camping and the Ford for work. We are in construction. Headed out to Stanislaus to find a dirt road away from people this morning...test driving the taxa tigermoth can't wait

Hello all! Brent here from central Ky. Lost touch with how much I needed and missed being outdoors from wheeling to camping. Cant wait to combine those with Overlanding. Look forward to meeting and getting to know more like minded souls and would love to catch up with some people in my general area to explore with and learn from. Right now using my 2019 Ram 1500 for adventures and patiently waiting for my new Ford Bronco that will take over this duty.

Hi All,
New to the forum here, and looking fwd be part of it all.

Originally had a Jeep TJ, so much fun, but after 10yrs upgrade to a 2017 Jeep Wrangler, 2dr.

I do like my offroadong trips, but looking to get more into the Overland side of things.. realise the 2dr is not ideal, but the size of my garage had the final say

Hi-my name is Robert and from the Bay Area. We used to camp up past Pinecrest about 25 years ago-I remember the sign always said Trail of the Ancient Drawfs-was a lot of fun and have continued to camp since then-but last few years ago started getting into it more. We use a Ram1500 4 wheel drive. Roof top tent and recently added a second battery via Red Arc controller. My family and I try to camp as much as we can-especially now with Covid-we try to avoid crowds since our little one is too young for a vaccination. Hoping to find others to chat with, find new sites and learn more about getting on the trails. I also do photography as a hobby and another topic would be nice to find others to talk with. Thanks
