Hey y'all. I guess a should do my intro...

My name is Rick. Currently living in Pollock Pines, CA.

Rig is a 2013 Ford F150 FX4.

I'd say I'm still a bit if a novice, as I just started this hobbie last year. Having the El Dorado National Forest as my backyard has been helpful with getting more familiar with just going out and exploring.

Hello everyone,
My name is Alex and I'm in San Jose, CA.

Currently have a 2019 4Runner, which I've taken off road hunting in the Mendocino National Forest, but am looking to get a 100 series Land Cruiser to build into an Overland Rig with the ultimate goal of doing the TransAmerica Trail when I retire.
Very much a Novice and a friend turned me on to this site. Looking to learn and hopefully meet some locals I can bounce ideas off and maybe make some new friends.

Experience: Currently own a class C, been RVing my entire life, plus lived off grid on sailboats for years

Hi, I’m Talisha. Newly retired 55yo single lady and my dog, Xander. I am looking for some recommendations for trailers that I can live & travel in full time. I’ve been almost everywhere in the US and Canada, but in class Cs and As where campgrounds are necessary. I’m over the KOA life and want to go deeper and off road. Looking for suggestions on rigs. I have a RAM 2500.
