100% Noob to this Overlanding stuff but hooked. Now I must convince the wife and daughters how great it's going to be :)
Sold my 07' JKU Rubi this year that I had since new because it just sat in the garage collecting dust due to work. Currently driving a 18' Ram 2500 Cummins 4x4 whinch I'm going to sell to get another JKU or 4Runner.
JkU was decked out with a Bruiser LS3 conversion 525HP 500TQ, it was a beast and loved to eat rearends.

Whats up Overland fam!
I am currently living in Kaiserslautern, Germany.
I have done many camping and offroading trips but plan to do overland all over Europe starting early January.
I have a 2017 TRD Tacoma Off-road Access Cab with Icon suspension, leaf springs, hydraulic rear bump stop, All-Pro rock sliders, CBI rear high clearance bumper, Wilco VT tiregate and of course some rigid lights in the front. Currently have the Leitner Design Bed Rack sitting in my living room waiting for me to install once I brave the cold. Hopefully I will get that done soon so that I can enjoy the German Outdoors.

Hello there guys and gals. I'm Mike from SW Ohio. Currently driving a 2018 F-150 Screw FX4 short bed. Looking to start an overland build. Trying to get an idea of the best midheight bed rack/rtt combination. I like the RCI bed rack look but wonder if it'll support a three person Tepui tent? I'll lurk around for some ideas. Thanks for such a great tool to help

Location: Los Angeles, CA
Rig: 2017 Toyota Tacoma TRD Off-Road
Experience: I would say experienced, but definitely not advanced.

I got into overlanding to teach my sons (2yr old and a 2month old) about the great outdoors as they get older, and to spend more quality time with my father.

I’ve been following this forum as a lot of my google searches send me here for information, and I love the YouTube channel... so I figured it was time to be a part of the community and add to it if possible!

Hello everyone! I have been looking into getting into Overlanding for a little while now. I used to be into off-roading alone, but now I want to combine a few of my favorite activities to explore and not have to trailer a lot other than a small trailer with the necessities.

1) Sorry, no picture at the moment (will get one soon)
2) Virginia / North Carolina
3) 1982 Jeep CJ-8 (Plans to build overland body on frame), really want to get another 97-01 Jeep Cherokee XJ, I miss my old one.
4) Overlanding - novice, outdoor activities - experienced

New Members,

Hi all,
I'm new to the site and have moderate experience overlanding/wheeling. I have my rig "Squirrel" to a reasonably functional level for my requirements and am always at tweaking its usefulness. My next stage of the build will focus on capability (moving past OEM)

I'm looking forward to being an active member is the community.

2017 Ram Rebel "Squirrel"
Tow 9k/offroad/wife chase and support vehicle
Moderate experience
