Hello everyone! My name is Dave, I own a Jeep cherokee and am from Livermore, Ca. I’ve had my Jeep for quite some time and have gotten bitten by the overland bug. I know nothing right now, but hoping to figure things out as I go.
Welcome to the most helpful, resourceful, outdoor enthusiasts forum on the web. There is much to learn here and many awesome members to chat with. Welcome aboard. - Nick

Howdy!

I'm a novice overlander, but ready to learn some things. I chose the Lexus GX because it is comfortable as my daily driver, and has a rugged truck chassis underneath. Planning a few mods to make it more trail worthy.

Hello everyone!
I finally decided to join the site after a few months of lurking.
Rig: 2005 Chevrolet Suburban 1500 Z71, G80 rear locker, 2.5" lift and 33" K02's
Experience: Intermediate, casual weekend warrior, nothing too serious.

I use the rig as a semi-daily driver (I own 3 BMW's as well so its nice to have something reliable in the stable) and for towing my 1997 M3 track car all around California for events.

Feel free to also follow me on Instagram @ItsMaxNow

Hey all! New to the group, and new to overlanding! Our Italian 2003 Defender is currently on the boat across the Atlantic... Very excited.

And please post pictures of the Defender!

Hey,

Im up in Cananda and have goals to get down into the states more but its also so hard to leave when my backyard is the Canadian Rockies. What kind of support do we have up in canada on this forum? I've been watching the youtube videos and figured it was time to join this group.

1) Picture! If you have a rig, we want to see it!
-Just got a new to me rig, so no good pictures yet
2) Location (General area is fine)
-Cremona, Canada (Not too far outside of Calgary)
3) Rig (Year, Make, Model, etc.)
-2003 Toyota 4Runner Limited (the wife wanted some luxuries lol)
4) Overlanding Experience Background (Novice or Experienced, you're welcome here!)
Id call myself somewhere between novice and whatever is above that, I had a Tacoma I was exploring with for about 5 years and now onto the 4Runner to keep at it.

Excited to join this group!

Hey folks!

New member checking in from the Triangle area in NC! OB#15477
Previous rig was a 2013 Honda fit (plenty of car camping trips with this one)
Current rig: 2013 Nissan Xterra S 4wd AKA "The Silver Bullet"
I have a fair bit of experience backpacking, and car camping. Definitely looking forward to getting on some trails this year and learning what my X is capable of.
Happy to be here!IMG_20190126_163656.jpg

Hello everyone,
After watching the videos for over a year now, I finally took the plunge and bought my first overlanding rig: Nissan Titan SE Crew Cab 4x4!
I’ve already gone on a couple of adventures with the family, but I’m looking forward to go on a lot more!
Welcome to OB! Overlanding is a great family activity.
