Hi, Jeff here. Just joined, really impressed with the OB Community! I have a long history when it comes to modifying vehicles (specifically Toyota's) to go Off-Road. Currently I have 2017 Toyota 4Runner TRD-Off-Road that continues to chew up my back account! I have serve OCD and continue to refine/change to improve different aspects of my rig. I love driving and seeking new back roads and trails, particularly the "roads-less-traveled". Currently working on a trip to the Arctic Ocean September this year. The photos are from a shake down run of the dual spare set-up, results: success.

Thanks I appreciate the info!


Might be holding off anything but local events for the time being - my wife is a Drill Sergeant out here and she's working 18 hour days 7 days a week every three month cycle so everything's pretty reliant on me being close by. I think by the time we move out west we'll be on a more 'stable' schedule. Right now it's just nuts.

Hell, I might even form my own meetup around here if anyone is interested. Might even try to do it on base!

Hello, everyone! Currently live in El Paso, Tx (active duty at Ft Bliss). Emergency nurse by trade but hobbies are far removed from compassionate caregiving, lol.

Love the outdoors, exploring, and intensity so overland is a natural for. My first experience was with Moto-camping in South Korea on a dual-sport and now that I'm back in the states I've been to modify my 2004 Tacoma dbl can. Experience level is mild-moderate and I'm looking to get more time in the back country with my family and a few other like-minded people (want the missus to enjoy this).

Front runner rooftop tent, diy rack, ARB fridge on Diy slides, 2" OME full suspension, 33" KM2'S, and dual batteries... For now.

Greetings all!

I recently retired from the U.S. Military and have been a "Jeeper" for years, getting more into the overland thing now that I don't have to camp using the military's logic on the subject! I went back to school and work on the side as a Security Contractor so get out about once a quarter for some dirt time.

I live on the west coast, based out of Santa Rosa, California currently. There are great areas out here to ride, though I have been known to drive up to 2000 miles for a trek, so pretty much anything is game for me.

My rig is a 1991 Jeep Cherokee, 3" lift on 31's. Currently, as of April 2019, she is offroad capable, but not yet ready for my planned adventure in June, a 65-day excursion. That said, my garage is 90% full of all the new parts that will be installed over the next six weeks to allow for testing time before hitting the dirt. Parts on hand: (Winch & front bumper, tire carrier rear bumper, full-length weld in frame stiffeners, Limb Risers, a completely refurbished interior, roof rack, cut/larger fender flares, full paint job, a couple more LED lights, Ham Radio, 360° camera system, Toughbook vehicle computer system, upgraded dual battery 12v system, 2000w inverter, and more...) I will follow up with before and after images to show off either my success or leaning points!

My Overlanding experience is basically Jeep camping along the many trails and mountains on the west coast. I would grade me as a very experienced novice, good at driving and camping for extended times but looking to expand my skills and abilities.

See ya'll out there!

Greetings All,

Fidel from Marietta GA. I'm looking forward to meeting some great people as well as learning more about overlanding. I've always had an adventurous spirit and love the great outdoors. Overlanding seems like a great fit as I love all things that constitute its core.
