View attachment 3318 View attachment 3319 Hey there! Excited to be here! I'm an Overland nerd as I've always loved Expedition Portal and I subscribe to Overland Journal.

Rig: 2016 Ram Laramie Power Wagon
Place: NE Montana(Fort Peck Lake)
Do: Locomotive Engineer for BNSF Railway

Most of my experience has been on 2 wheels. I have a KTM 990 Adventure R. I love to explore our endless back roads here and rode her to Alaska.

Anyway, I'm planning an Overland build and I really enjoy reading your articles as well as the overall purpose of this group. Walt

• Name is Lee from Texas
• 1997 Toyota Land Cruiser FZJ80 Poverty Pack in Toyota Grey Metallic
• Quite a bit of rock crawling and trail riding experience from past Jeeps and Toyotas. In terms of Overlanding or Expedition wheeling I've only done a few trips prior to the current rig. Texas to Vancouver for the 2010 Winter Olympics in my 2007 Rubicon Unlimited and then up to Alaska and back down the west coast. Reno back to Texas in my heavily modified 1998 Jeep Grand Cherokee on 38's. And Barstow back to Texas in my 2012 FJC Trails Team.

Alright, it was late last night when I signed up and was working from my iPad.

I guess a little about me is in order. My wife, son & I live in Durango CO. We own a couple direct mail marketing companies that service the 4 corners area. I have a hobby business "Speski OffRoad" where I do some Toyota based fab work, mainly custom dog barriers. I'm also a Tepui Tent dealer. I enjoy most things outdoors, skiing, cycling, hunting, camping, etc.... I've been a Land Cruiser owner since 1998 starting with a 40 series. Currently own a 97 40th edition with all the typical goodies.

We do both expo style travel with a RTT and base camp operations from a Starcraft 10R/T. My son is my main overland partner. We get a couple guy trips in per year. My wife does not like spending day after day in the truck without any other purpose.
