Hey OB fam. I am Richard and this is my first post here. I've got a Jeep 4xe that I have begun to slowly build out. I have plans to take on the Washington BDR later this year with another friend of mine. Can't wait to read about it on here to plan for it, and get the advice from the pros.

Hello, live in the Omaha Metro area (eastern nebraska).
I drive a Lexus GX460 and so far the only off reading I've done is drive into my yard to get closer to the back door.

Just over 100k so I've got alot of PMs I'll be documenting to share here and on my YouTube channel.

I was just diagnosed with multiple sclerosis. So no long range trips just yet. But we will be camping at various places local to us and will pass along the good and bad about each, as I know many of you drive through on I-80 to get to mountains.

As I outfit the vehicle I am going to set everything up for a future me that may not be as capable as I am now.

Hello,

I'm John, Army (Ret) vet and have absolutely zero experience adventure traveling but have many decades of road trips across the country via 4 wheel and 2 wheel (Goldwing). I've not done any form of camping since my active duty retirement some 20 years ago and actual camping during my knee high to a grasshopper scouting days. Currently call home in Fayetteville NC, and although I don't consider my car as an overlanding rig (2021 Subaru Crosstrek) as it's bone stock, one day it could be.

I recently decided to join Overland Bound and invest since I have been following Michael's & Corrie's Overland Bound, TrailRecon, LifestyleOverland, Epic Family Road Trip, Wayalife, Expedition Overland, and Marco at OVRLNDX YT channels for years.

Hi!
I’m Reggie. I’m brand new to Overlanding. I have years of experience remote camping, and being off road with dirt bikes and ATVs, but now I’m combining everything and just getting started in this new area. I am a complete novice, starting all over at the beginning and soaking up as much as I can.
I’m on an Africa Twin M/C right now for my first trip in WA state coming up in June. Next step is building a 4 wheeled vehicle.
Thank you!

New to over landing and am excited to make “adventure necessary” as I work less and begin to enjoy life more.
Recently acquired a 2014 Fj Cruiser that is becoming the vehicle to get my wife and I closer together outdoors.
Overland bound is helping this dream become reality.

Hi! I am Rich from Ravensdale, WA. I am a lifelong outdoor adventurer, but new to the overlanding community. I switched from a full-size GMC to a Wrangler as my primary offroad vehicle a few years ago. After several years of research and planning, I'm in the process of building up my '21 JLU Rubicon for more adventures with my family. I will be doing a mix of my own builds and purchases and will be very interested in OB community feedback and recommendations.

Glad to be a part of the community.
