Hello all,
New member hailing from Auburn, California.
I just found this site and immediately fell in love. I guess it was love at first site. (Terrible pun)

My rig is new to me, so I am still feeling it out.
It is a 2017 Toyota Tundra very stock, and will most likely remain that way for a little while.

I am happy to have found this place, so let the adventure begin.

Regards,
Mengil

Thanks Jake! My daughter and I love your youtube channel. She is learning to drive in a '97 Jeep TJ (manual transmission) that belonged to my late stepdad.

Hoping to see you back on the road soon. We have a puppy, and Annie is kind of a role model for her.
Nice! Thanks so much that's awesome of you both! Glad to have you along on this journey! Will be heading back to CO later this week, resuming the 50 state road trip and frequent videos! That puppy will make a good Jeep dog!

Greetings from Travis VanZuiden in Calcasieu Parish Louisiana. I drive a 1997 Jeep Cherokee XJ. I am new to the overlanding community but it's something I have been interested in. I am still getting my rig set up and then the adventure can begin. I hope to touch base with some people near me. Feel free to contact me anytime.

Hey guys, my name is Tanner(if you couldn't tell by my user name). I currently drive a 94 jeep yj, it's not a super common overland vehicle but I like different and it's very capable Offroad. I'm from Chickasha Oklahoma. I've only been "overlanding" for a couple months now, haven't done much more than day trips because I'm still fixing and building my rig. I work as a professional mechanic, and I'm an amateur photographer. My dad has owned a wrecker service since I was about ten so I have a lot of experience with recovery. Looking forward to meeting some new people and doing some wheeling!View attachment 32441 View attachment 32440
Cool rig, I'm in Oklahoma too!

Hey there, Eddie here from Los Angeles California. Pretty much a novice when it come to Overlanding but love the adventure of being on and off the road. My 'rig' is a 1985 Ford F150 with an old school shell I found on Craigslist locally. I take it everywhere and it 'takes a licking and keeps on ticking'.

Hi Eddie, love that truck! Reminds me of my first rig long ago - an '83 F150 Supercab. Drove it till the wheels feel off. Have owned 2 other F150s since then. Yours looks to be in great shape.

Hey everyone! Evan from Beaverton, Oregon area. Rig is a 2017 Ram 1500 5.7L. She's fresh and clean and ready to get out and dirty! Looking forward to meeting a ton of new people to share some adventures with. Love being outdoors as much as possible and building an overland rig has been on my mind for some years now. Recently got out of a terrible life situation, bought myself a new rig and ready to go explore!

My rig is not nearly complete but it is 2016 Jeep Rubicon Unlimited Hard Rock named Lola Jean. I have limited myself to day trips so far and haven't gone for any extensive trips and camping with this rig. Prior overlanding was in my 36 foot class A motor home.

As to where I prefer to go my license plate says it "LOVMTNS"
