Since I have not been very active, I figured I would give an updated introduction.
We started our journey with two Land Rover LR4s. As we transitioned from TN to MO, we also transitions to a Ram family of vehicles: my wife has a 1500 Rebel with some extra skid protection, and I have started building my 2500 power wagon.
I look forward to gaining some insight from our community as we finally buy time to get out and enjoy nature.
See you on the trails!

Hello Michael, I hope the time is not too expensive for you, I have found it to be costly at times.

Hello ~ I'm Martyn, and I live in Los Angeles, CA. I have a 2008, Toyota, 4Runner that I recently starting using for more than just a daily driver. I plan on going on more trips, adventures, offroading and overlanding. Nothing too crazy, as it is my daily and i need to use it for work as well.
In the last year or so, I've occasionally been going out with a few new and more knowledgeable enthusiasts, that I've met along my journey.

Hello everyone,
As of a few weeks ago we live in TorC, NM. My better half and I began overlanding about 4 years ago but really kicked it into overdrive when the pandemic started. Most of our time has been spent exploring Colorado and Wyoming but have made several 2-3 week trips in the past two years (CO to CA, CO to FL, and a two week WY summer vacation). We have plans to head to the PNW for at least a month at the end of July and Baja some time in the fall. I now work remotely (thank you COVID) so we hope to overland a lot more from here on out (thank you Starlink). We look forward to meeting other members and getting a chance to tag along on some of your planned expeditions.
Cheers,
Dennis G.

It can be expensive! But, as long as my updates give some layer of protection, or comfort for the family, it's always worth it in the endHello Michael, I hope the time is not too expensive for you, I have found it to be costly at times.

Just back from a fantastic trip through Norway. What a great country. And what do I see here? So many new registrations again! Wow, that's awesome.
Not easy to keep up while on the road for a couple of weeks. So, welcome to all new joiners. Welcome to Overland Bound!

Welcome to Overland Bound Dennis & Better Half ;-)
Good looking set up. I agree that star link has opened up the possibilities to work from just about anywhere. No more fake backgrounds for calls, you can have the real thing.
