I’m Chris, and we’re checking in from Sumter, SC. We recently moved her from CO, and are looking forward to exploring the east coast (as well as heading back out west) in our 2020 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon. I wouldn’t call us experts at overlanding, but we’re definitely not novices. Hope to see some of the OB crew on the road/trails!

Hey everyone! I'm Rick and I'm excited to be here!

I'm in the Hampton Roads area of Virginia, USA.
3) I have a (new to me) 2015 Toyota 4RUNNER. It's mostly stock as far as I can tell. It's and SR5 Premium and seems to have most of the off road goodies that the TRD models have without the badging and price tag. My goal is to try to make it as capable as possible while keeping it looking stock.
4) Overlanding Experience Background: I would consider myself a novice. I had a 95 Bronco back in the day and took it out out a few times but it was a bit of a basketcase and wasn't reliable...so I didn't do a lot with it and ended up selling it. Looking forward to getting out on some trails again!

Hello everyone!

My name is Graydon McKee and I live in Cumming, Ga. I’m new to Overlanding though I used to go “4Wheeling” quite a bit 20+ years ago. I preferred “low and slow” to the mud slinging. At least most of the time.
I used to be a Jeep guy but have recently inherited a 2007 Toyota 4Runner Sport. It is stock but I plan on some minor modifications over the next few years. First thing is new tires and fixing the 4Low actuator. My father ran it in 4High once a month but never bothered with 4Low. Use it or loose it they say.

Hello all!! My name is Mike and I’m in Long Island NY. A year ago my father past away in Puerto Rico and I decided to keep his 2010 Jeep jk. It has since gone through a total make over. I have two little boys and I’m looking for a fun way to bond with them away from the iPads and PlayStation. I’m excited to start this new journey and hobby. Thanks for the amazing videos. Looking forward to hitting the trails.
