Member Introductions *NEW MEMBERS INTRODUCE YOURSELF*

[freak4life]

Hello everyone. My Name is Ryon. I am retiring from the military in January 2022 and moving back home to Oregon. I just got a new (to me) 2013 Lexus GX 460, and I'm looking forward to getting her off road and doing some camping. If you have any recommendations for the Central Oregon area, I'm all ears.

My name is Paul. I just got a 1999 Land Cruiser that I am building out. It has had the same owner for the last 20 years and now has 244k miles on it. So far I have just done some baseline maintenance. I have sliders and a lift on order. I also have a truck/travel trailer that I like to boondock in. I look forward to meeting some fellow members in the Bay Area/Sacramento Valley, and beyond!

Hello Paul, welcome to Overland Bound.

Hello everyone! I’m based in Chandler AZ. I drive a 5th gen 4Runner, with an icon suspension, Demello hybrid sliders, a Prinsu roof rack, Westscott Designs ladder, and K02s in 285.

next step will be fog lights, then ditch lights. Also building a chuck box.

I’ll post pictures of my rig when I get back home.

ITM, Robert here from central Kansas.
I am working on a 1975 Dodge Ramcharger SE to be our overlanding rig.
My experience is lots of vehicle based camping, etc. in my youth, but mostly camper based exploration of regional lakes and wildlife areas in recent years.

Hello Robert, welcome to Overland Bound! Can't wait to see pics of the Ramcharger!
