Hello fellow adventurers,
My name is Shane, and i am currently stuck here in SoCal. I currently have a '17 GMC Sierra fitted with all the cool gear......
I've been camping and offroading for over 30 years, but only had an "Overland" rig for 2 years. I usually get out every other weekend, whether it be a day trip or a 3-4 expedition.

I'm always down for a new adventure, and hopefully get to see some of you on the trails!!!!

Good morning! My name is James and I am new to this forum. I have a 2021 Tundra TRD Pro in Lunar Rock, C4 fab front bumper with a Warn 12k synthetic winch. I also JUST bought a 1992 Land Cruiser this last week and am in the process of renovating it. I'm very new to overlanding, but my wife and I are avid backpackers, so the concept of "carry what you need" is quite familiar to us. I am a US Marine veteran (2001-2008) and am interested in self sufficiency in all matters of things, and Overlanding is an amazing way to continue the adventures!! Thanks for having me. I'll post some images in the next week or so when I get back home.
