Why Overlanding?: We love to be outdoor, pack up camping gear on a Friday and head out for the weekend. Plan is to build our new rig with overlanding in mind to explore more often and more advanced

My name is Justin and I live in the Denver Metro area. I have a 2015 Nissan Xterra that I have been building as an overland vehicle. I consider myself as a beginner to overlanding. I have started to learn/use Gaia GPS and recently passed my HAM Technician examination. I am looking forward to learning for everyone in this community!

Hey everyone!

My name is Tim from Everett WA. I own a 2007 FJ Cruiser with light tasteful modifications. I'm an Army veteran who now films and edits for a drone manufacturer. So getting out away from city is what I love.

I sold my Triumph Tiger last year and switched to 4x4s. So the FJ is going through outfitting to get ready for this year's BDR trip. Thanks for the add and I hope to meet a lot of you!

Oh, and it's sad that a photographer doesn't have good photos of his rig yet. But most of my trips are at night right now until work slows down. So my profile pic will have to do!

Thank you for your service, and welcome to OB! What a dream job. Any place we can see any of your work? (especially the drone work)

Thank you and yes I love my job. Without posting a direct link. Check out Autel Robotics on YouTube. Specifically the " Meet the EVO " video. That is my latest upload.

Hi, New member here!

I have been living the "Overland" life since I got my drivers license and I am passing on this passion to my now 17 year old son. I am a Land Cruiser junkie and still have my first FJ40 which has been trail tested on just about everything. I recently got my son in a 1991 FJ80 and these days I find that my LX470 is my go to for most trips. I am looking forward to getting out on some trips with some local Overlanders. I will get some pics of my rigs posted soon.

I'm Bryan and I am new to the overland bound forums and pretty new to Overlanding. I drive a 2013 Toyota Tacoma and I'm hoping I can contribute and meet some of you. Here is a picture of my rig right now. View attachment 49377

Hey all. My name is Jason (10,318)
and I am a proud owner of a 2014 Jeep JK Rubicon Unlimited. Currently in the build stage trying to get ready to run the Rubicon trail. My wife, dog and I reside in Beaverton Oregon. You can follow me on instagram at destination_wilderness. Pretty new to Overlanding as I have only had the Jeep less than a year. I have been pretty active in getting out and off the grid. Looking forward to chatting and meeting some of you. If you are in the great NW feel free to reach out.

Hello All,

My name is Chris and I currently live in Northern California and am moving to Denver Colorado at the end of next week! I don't have a rig currently but and looking to get my hands on one once the move is complete. I am completely new to overlanding (other than "web wheeling" like crazy!) I'm excited to meet other overlanders!
