Hey everyone!

My names Justin from Massachusetts. I have a 2016 F250 6.2L 4x4 . My wife and I just bought a truck bed camper 96 Weekender pretty much sight unseen in oregon. We’re shipping the truck out to oregon flying out, marrying them up and taking a two week road trip home.

My experience is pretty much just the off-road beaches in Massachusetts my entire life. Bought my first truck bed camper in highschool brought it back to life and spent most of my free time on the beaches.
Welcome to OB. Lots of great people and resources in this community. You’ll enjoy it.

Hey everyone, my name is Jared and I’m new to this app, but also new to the Jeep world and off-roading/overlanding.

I live in the East SF Bay Area of California with my amazing wife and two daughters, and our two dogs.

I drive a 2010 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon and just bought it a few months ago. I’ve never owned a 4x4 before but am loving learning and driving and adventuring in it.
Welcome to OB Jared. Enjoy your new adventures.

Thanks for the welcome and the info and link about the Bay Area meet ups! I’d love to make it to one of these! Do you guys ever do any “local”-ish day trip trails, or is most of it overnight types of things?
We do do some, the challenge is doing trails that are close enough. The last weekend in September there is a trip to Corral Hollow that is scheduled as an overnight but it is close enough to come back home afterwards if you want.

Hi Jaime,

I'm Steve out if Visalia CA. Welcome to OB. We have meetings in Visalia and we will be planning a trip to Monache Meadows in October and our snow camping which will be above Fresno CA. I'm slammed at work and looking for a date for the meeting but watch the Rally point for the meeting date and location. Adrian in our group has a nice Tacoma set up. Hope to see you at the next meeting.

I'm a new guy, have done some trips out there, enjoy going there..... in fact my wife tells me I never take the same route twice or so.
I'm also an old guy, but who is counting?
Live in the Western side of VA close the the Shenandoah National Park and others.
Busy most weekends though, so do my exploring during the week. Also have a Ham license (for many years) and do some POTA trips.
Hi Richard welcome to OBO, I'm also a new member as of last month I'm in southern Nevada again welcome.

Hi I'm Ed from Raleigh, NC. Currently driving a trusty old 2004 Subaru Legacy Wagon 35th Anniversary Edition (just 50k miles now w/JDM engine swap) which was mainly used to cart kids to/from baseball/softball tournaments the last decade along the east coast of the US through muddy field parking lots where only soccer moms' Jeeps dared. ;-) Interested in getting into light overlanding in the North Carolina area. Luckily my tires are about due so looking at putting on a modest 1.5" lift and getting AT's vs the straight street tires to make it look less grocery-getter looking (if that's possible!)

Hello!

Location: Mesa, AZ
Rig: 2022 Ram Rebel
Experience: Mostly on-road road trips

Just getting started and trying to figure out how to outfit my rig without voiding my warranty. Well, if I do, that’s probably okay too.

Welcome to ob !
How do you like the rebel ?
