Welcome.
What engine is in your 2004 Discovery TD5 or a 3.5l V8
I have TD5 in my Defender now but previously loved my Discovery with the 3.5l V8 just a bit expensive to run here in the UK
Hi!
I have the 4.6 V8. I wish I had the td5. I had a td5 in my Defender and lived that engine. Proper sound for an offroader too :).
I had the 110 while living in the UK. We don’t get them here in Canada unfortunately. I might have to do an import in a year or so...

Thanks for having me! I live in Salem Oregon and currently own and 2003 Tundra Limited AC 4wd and a 2004 Tundra Limited 2wd which is the rig I will be making my overlander. Very excited to get my rig started by this summer so the fam and I can go camping and explore! Will be posting pics soon
Welcome, @Issac Gutierrez, to Overland Bound and the ever growing swell of people in the NorthWest Region! I'm guessing, by your lineup of trucks, that you don't like Toyota? Just Kidding! All kidding aside, Salem is a great place for a budding overlander and, thanks to @Roy & Kristin Zirpoli, you will find lots of opportunities to meet other overlanders as well as get out and adventure. There is a Willamette Valley- Overland Bound Facebook group [link] that may be of interest to you.

You can also stop into the NorthWest Region forums [link] to get to know who else is in the region and hear about events. Of course, events are also posted on the Rally Point system [link], so you might want to check that out as well.

Anyway, I look forward to seeing you out there! If you need anything, feel free to hit me up on the forums: @Jedi.

Hello everyone,

This is Bryan from eastern Utah, driving offroad is normally a given in this area. I mainly did rougher trails and rocks with my prior vehicle (2000 Jeep XJ, 6 inches of lift, 35" tires, etc.). I got tires of doing this now and I am getting into longer overland trips. I am now outfitting the newer vehicle now (2014 Jeep JKUR, stock suspension, roof rack with RTT, interior mods galore). Still planning other mods to do.

Hello all, new member here!

Pueblo, Colorado
2015 P4x Frontier -Slightly Modified
Medium off-road experience running CO trails in previously built rigs. Looking to get more into the exploring aspects rather than just day trails.

Looking forward to connecting with a great group of people and learning all I can!

Hello OLB members, this is Paul. I have been following the OLB you tube channel for a while. I consider myself a novice overlander and looking forward to some trips. My rig is a 2017 Toyota Tundra, which is in the process of being modded for future trips. I am based in the Northern California (East Bay) area.

Hi all,

Located in Sacramento, CA
Current ride is 2015 Jeep Wrangler with take off Rubicon suspension and 32" Duratracs.

Welcome to Overland Bound, Amory (@AVneanderthal)! The Salem area is really starting to pick up with the members thanks to @Roy & Kristin Zirpoli's efforts. You can find out more about what is going on in the area by visiting the Willamette Valley- Overland Bound Facebook group [link]. There are a number of runs organized through that area and through the NorthWest Region forum right here on Overland Bound [link]. One such event is a meetup on February 9th [link].

I highly recommend keeping an eye on the Rally Point system [link] for more events that might interest you.

I look forward to seeing you out there sometime! If you need anything, feel free to hit me up on the forums: @Jedi.
We would love to have you join us- we have folks at every level! Check out our Facebook group and join us! Have a run to Tillamook leaving from West Salem Safeway in the morning!

Hello everyone!
I finally decided to join the site after a few months of lurking.
Rig: 2005 Chevrolet Suburban 1500 Z71, G80 rear locker, 2.5" lift and 33" K02's
Experience: Intermediate, casual weekend warrior, nothing too serious.

I use the rig as a semi-daily driver (I own 3 BMW's as well so its nice to have something reliable in the stable) and for towing my 1997 M3 track car all around California for events.

Feel free to also follow me on Instagram @ItsMaxNow

Welcome to Overland Bound, @Alex Orr! The Portland area is a fantastic part of the PNW with access to many great outdoor adventures. If you can make it, we are having a meetup next Monday, January 28th, at the Famous Dave's Bar-B-Que - Cascade Station in Portland [link].

Even if you can't make it, I highly recommend strolling over to the NorthWest Region forum [link] to get to know your neighbors. You can also take a look at events occurring in the area by visiting the Rally Point system [link].

I look forward to seeing you out there! If you need anything, feel free to hit me up on the forums: @Jedi.
