Hello Overland Bound Members!

My name is Greg and I’m located in Surprise, Arizona (30 minutes west of Phoenix, Arizona). My rig is a 2018 Jeep Rubicon JK, currently with 10,000 miles and I’ve been a novice overlander with only 3 months of experience. My rig’s name is Aloy (any gamers know what that name is from?). The build is only 3 months in existence, however there is a ridiculous build in the works that will come over the next few months which you will be able to follow on my new Instagram account (Instagram.com/TheVastVentures) which my girlfriend and I run.

Currently, we have a Smittybilt roof rack, Smittybilt Overlander tent, Smittybilt door steps, 2.5 rubicon express lift, FrontRunner tailgate table, and a few other goodies not including the items we use to store equipment. Nothing crazy so far, but just a few items on the cheaper side to get us out on the trails as quickly as possible while we save up for good quality equipment.

I’m a Nursing Student, Photographer/Videographer, REALTOR, and my girlfriend Alexis works for Moog, an aerospace and defense company.

We just returned from Overland Expo West for our first time, which is only 2 hours away from us, and we had an amazing time! Next year we will certainly camp the entire week/weekend and enjoy the full experience.

If anyone is in Arizona, give us a follow on our Instagram account and send us a message! We’re always looking to make new friends in the area.

We have done a few short weekend Overland trips in Arizona and California, but nothing further at the moment. We are planning a Colorado/Utah trip for next month, so if there are any must-go-to places in either state, we’re open to suggestions!

Nice to meet you all, and look forward to making new friends!

Welcome, Scout are one of my favorite vehicles. What engine do you have in it ? They make awesome trail rigs and your Land
cruiser should make an awesome Overland travel rig. Good luck

No doubt, I have the same 304 2v in my 67 International 3/4 ton long bed 2wd. I have taken it where other 4x4"s couldn't go. I put a new short block in at 340,000 miles but everything else is original. Just wish it were a 4x4, it would conquer the world.

Hi everyone. Overland Bound member 436. From Highland Village, TX with a 2018 Toyota Tacoma - TRD Offroad 4x4 and 2018 Airstream Basecamp.

Welcome.

How do you like your Basecamp? I started looking into it and was wondering if it is a good choice - given the price it seems like a long-term commitment and one wants to "pamper" it.

What are your experiences? How does it hold up when it gets a bit rougher?
