[Overland Geezer]

Hi everybody. Max here.

Vehicle: 2015 Xterra PRO-4X, 100% stock at the moment, so I don't consider it a "rig" yet.
Outdoors experience: Backpacking, white-water canoeing, winter mountaineering.
Off-road experience: Northern New England/New York in a 1972 Land Cruiser FJ40 in the 1970's.

I'm just starting overland camping and getting geared up for some long distance trips in 2020. Had a blast at Expo East. I want more of this!

Hey Everyone,

I am really excited to start our adventures. I bought this pickup so my son (8yr old) and daughter (2yr old) can go enjoy some off-road adventures. It’s a 2019 Tacoma TRD off-road. In my younger years I did a lot of off-roading in Oregon. Mostly mudding with an 82 Chevy shortbed with a big V8. The Tacoma will be a bit different lol. No upgrades yet because I want to take it out and see what I Need as opposed to what I want. So far it looks like rock sliders and better skid plates. Anyways, we are happy to be a part of this group and look forward to some great adventures!!! C U on the trails!
PS: we live in Valencia, Ca. and this pic was taken at Drinkwater Flats in SCV.

Nice looking rig you have there.

It sounds like you have all the basic camping stuff covered already and your truck is already very off road capable.

What do you feel is lacking? Recovery? Storage? Navigation?

Even though it is Pro I am still concerned about the suspension on more difficult trails and adding weight. First is going to be recovery. Storage I can build.

And some lights for sure! High and low beams replaced last week to HID AND LED.

Bend, Oregon
I've got a 2005 Toyota 4runner, nothing crazy but it gets me everywhere I want to go!
I'd say im an intermediate overlander, Ive been offroading for 15 years and gotten stuck plenty of times in a 2wd stock Ranger in high school, so i'm pretty versed in what not to do.

pnwrichome,
Just want to extend a welcome to you. Any information or help just ask, if It is something I can do I will. By the way, take time to reach out to @Roy & Kristin Zirpoli. They are from the PDX area. You might look up Members in your area in our Overland Bound Members Map. I have and run my 99’ T4R! Vance.

[Olaf Overland]

Hi Overlanders! I'm Olaf from Fresno, California. I love spending time outside, gardening, fishing, hiking, kayaking, camping, rv-ing and of course overlanding, off-roading and traveling.
Rig: Toyota FJ Cruiser 2013 Trail Teams, no mods so far but working on it.
I have gone on some trails but am rather new to off-roading. My usual set-up is a travel trailer @ base camp and going on daytrips to explore from there. Next addition will be a roof top tent.
