Welcome to Overland Bound! Check the meet-up page to see what meet-ups are in your area, the Santa Cruze group is getting started and thats not a huge distance from you.Hello everyone,
I'm new to the forum but not new to overlanding. I just don't do enough of it due to my demanding work schedule and travel but want to do more. I currently have a slightly modified 1999 Toyota 4runner (below) that's trail ready but considering replacing with a newer Tacoma. I miss having a truck bed.
My wife loves camping but going off road is not her favorite thing so we have a very slightly used Coleman E1 popup trailer which makes spur of the moment camping a little easier and more comfortable. I love the trailer but it's is not up to more than a reasonably maintained dirt road.
I need to figure out how to get my wife more excited about going off the beaten path (off road) as a way to get to more interesting and isolated/secluded places. The regular state and national campgrounds are great but not where I'd prefer to stay if given free reign to choose.
I look forward to meeting some of you on the road at some point in the near future.
Adam

Hey everyone! Another San Diegan here... Needing to feed the call to veer of the highway and explore all the dirt roads and mountains from here to Tahoe. I'll also be on the look out here for any groups hitting the trails locally.
Cheers!

Hello and welcome to this great group of people. As you read through this site you will see that it is all of you that make this site great. Not what you drive or your overlanding experience, you and your participation . Hope to see and meet you on the many roads of life. Benz.

Hello all!
First post. Greetings from the mountains of Beautiful British Columbia, Canada. My rig is the pictured 1999 Honda CR-V with the upgraded B20 series motor, 120hp. The rig is pretty much stock, so far, with only a set of 205/75/R15 General Grabber AT2's fitted and a CB radio installed in the dash. I have big plans for mods in the future (but a small bank account at the moment, unfortunately) including a 2" OME spring lift, Bilstein shocks, DIY roof rack, fold down tailgate table, and probably a roof top tent.
I have very little experience in overlanding per se, but I spent 9 years in the army and I've loved camping and wilderness activities since I was a kid, so there's that.
So far, I've been immensely impressed with the little CR-V; it's taken me a lot of places I wouldn't have expected it would go, including a back country day trip through about 10 inches of snow on the mountain forest tracks. I recently attended the BC Overland Rally and I'm looking forward to learning more and going on more adventures!
Cheers

Hello,
Brian in Bellingham, WA, here. I've been camping and exploring for 40 years. Checking out this OB site to see what's here and to meet people. I was at the BC Overland Rally recently and talking to a friend there and she recommended this group.

Another OB Member in Whatcom County? And with the awesome name of Brian? Well then, a hearty welcome to you brother! I think a Northwest Washington meetup needs to happen at this point...
New to Overlanding but have been interested in it for a while. The biggest reason I didn't join before is now longer a reason... The other reason is I only have a 2008 PreRuuner Tacoma with the TRD Off-Road package. (My picture on my profile isn't my truck, but is basically what mine looks like. I'll snap a photo of it later.)
I wanted to know how much Overlanding is open to me and my PreRunner. I would like to outfit it for basic trails and if I decide this something I really like doing then trade in the PreRunner for a 4x4 Tacoma that I can transfer equipment over to the new one.
