Hello All!

I'm Ryan from Central Missouri. I currently have a 2013 Ford F-150 FX4. I would say I'm new to overlanding. Just a few local trips under my belt so far. I first heard about and got interested in the overlanding lifestyle after watching The Long Way Round and The Long Way Down series with Ewan McGreggor and his duel sport motorcycle adventures. I then found my way to Expedition Overland and became hooked. Anyway, here to learn and connect with this huge community! Safe travels everyone.

welcome. i have a red 2015 f150 fx4. new to this also. our first trip was big bend np in south west texas. it was great.

Hello,
My name is Jon. I live in Redding, CA. I love being outside. My girls are growing up camping. My daughter cried when I sold my Tacoma expedition build affectionately called "Daddy's Truck" to get our new 2013 Sequoia (we have a third child on the way the truck had to go, but we kept the 4runner).

Here is a list of rigs I have owned. I also rebuild and ride the heck out of 3 wheelers, particularly 250sx's.

1999 4runner SR5
2005 Toyota Tacoma Sport (I have a build page on tacomaworld)
2007 Toyota 4runner SR5
2013 Toyota Sequoia SR5

Trailers:
M101 A3
Custom 4x6 expo trailer
Little guy 4x5 Jeep Trailer (retired)
Little Guy 2 4x6 Jeep Trailer (retired)

I'm from Livermore CA (Bay Area)
Driving: 2017 Toyota Tacoma TRD PRO cement

I'm from Huntington Beach in So Cal.
My rig is a "Bone stock" 2106 4runner Trail Premium. We call him Destroyer. (pics soon)
Zero overlanding experience. Unless you count camping/backpacking trips to far off places.
I feel as though overlanding is calling my name and I'm eager to get my son involved too. After that we my need to join forces on how to convince the wife :)

Nice GR. Is it the TD42 or us it the "petrol" 2.8?
I have a 1991 GQ Patrol left hand drive at our other place in the Philippines. It has the TD42 in it that I have added a turbo to and turned the pump up on. Factory pto winch and cable lockers.

Wow, that's awesome! Having a Y60 turbo plus the driving wheel is on leftside. That will be a perfect rig in the US. Mines a TD42 Diesel non-turbo automatic. The driving wheel is on the right side. Thinking about adding a turbo kit. It should give me more torque power. First on the list is 2 inch lift kit, probably OME or Ironman4x4.
