Hi everyone!

I'm Jeff, currently living near Monterey, CA.

Current Rig: 2014 Ram 1500 Laramie 4x4 EcoDiesel
Experience: I am fairly new to the overland gig in my own dime.. However, I have plenty of experience in expeditionary operations in the Army so overlanding seems natural.

B5CB627C-296F-41A8-928F-D0D0A4697C8C.jpeg New here, but not new to Jeeping. My current rig is a 2010 Jeep JK Unlimited. Mods list is lengthy and continues to grow, you know the feeling. I’m currently in the market for a M416 or the like to tag along on my adventures. I am also venturing into the realm of quad band radio. I have dedicated my life to the community in which I serve and protect as a LEO (17 years). I am also prior military and love nothing more than hitting the backroads topless, the smell of a campfire and bite of an ice cold beer!

Hi everyone from the snowy Pacific Northwest. I’ve been a member for a few months but I haven’t posted anything yet. I am looking for people in my area to go out with and ride some trails so I’m not out riding them on my own. I own a 2014 Jeep Wrangler Sport Unlimited named Diana. She is my daily driver who I take out everywhere when I go kayaking, hiking, tent camping, mountain biking, and all around exploring.
Thanks for your time.

Jenn
Always good to have another Jeep in the group. Welcome!

Nice rig! I just upgraded from a 2000 TJ to a 2014 JK rubicon unlimited. Working on the upgrades is always a good time. Welcome to the group!

Thanks, gave up the 4.0 for the 3.6! At least you skipped over the 3.8, unlike myself! Thanks for the welcome, looking forward to linking up with others in my AO, central NC.

IMG_4386.jpg Hi guys,

My name is Carlo (I'm from Italy) and I am based in South Alabama (Mobile bay).

I very new to overloading but since I got my 2014 4Runner Trail last September, I'm discovering a new world :smile:
My truck is almost stock (just did some cosmetic changes) but I'm planning more exciting mods for this year.

Glad to be part of this community!

Hey everybody! New to the membership and forum here but have been lurking for a little bit now. Here's a little about me, I'm 31, have a wife and 4 year old boy and live in Middle Tennessee (originally from out west in Cali and Reno). I have been wanting to get into overlanding for awhile now since I and the family enjoy being outdoors. I have wheeled quite a bit of the southeast region. I have had 13 jeep wranglers with all of them ranging from 33" tires mildly built to having a few jeeps on one ton axles,v8s and 40" tires, Jeeps are a crazy addiction. I now own and just purchased a 2008 4Runner Limited V8 4wd in fantastic shape with all maintenance kept up like it should be. The week total i have owned it, I have installed Bilstein adjustable struts with OME coils, JBA Upper control arms, ordered a winch, Method wheels and 275/70/17 Nitto Ridge Grapplers, hidden winch mount but still deciding on what rack to buy for a roof top tent . Obviously want to make it into a reliable overland vehicle with tons planned for it. Will upload pics to this post tomorrow afternoon if the rain ever quits here. Looking to explore God's country and make many memories with the family and other members.

Hey everyone, I just want to introduce myself. My name is Greg. I own a 2016 4Runner Trail Premium still basically stock although i'm working on upgrades and mods. I'm also located in NJ and looking for some "trial" overland trips that won't scratch my truck too bad.

New here, thanks for adding me. I come from hiking mostly, then to renting a 4wheel drive rental to go camping and finally getting a dedicated rig to do just that. Live in Princeton MA, right in the center of MA. Looking forward to seeing even more of the country.
Oh the rig is a 2016 JKU
