No way! We love it here. Moved from CO. No way! We love it here. Moved from CO originally! Way better!
Shhhhhh don't tell anyone! I didn't think it would be such a big deal just coming down to Port Orchard but its so different down here. We aren't in the rain shadow now and it seriously rains SO MUCH down here. But yeah we were there for 4 years, and the truck is my husbands daily driver, so you might have seen it just about anywhere, especially at the Home Depot lol

Been wanting to overland for years, my name is Jason from Burleson TX. We have a 2014 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk so we won't be doing anything too crazy. Just looking to camp away from normal campsites!
Miss my Grand Cherokee that was totaled earlier this year. Looking to buy a new one if we ever get our settlement!!!

Thomas from Norway here. New to 4wheeling, but have been overlanding on an adventure bike for 20 years. My biggest adventure to date was in 05/06 when I shipped my bike from Norway to Australia and spent a years circumnavigating that whole continent.
I still enjoy riding the bike, but with age comes the need for a higher level of comfort so I picked up a 2014 Pajero IV (4) this spring and spent the summer building a storage system for it.
It's a "green plater" which means it's registered as a two seater commercial van and came without any rear seat rows, and has a fixed cargo barrier behind the front seats. Not allowed to move the barrier.
3.2 ltr inline 4 common rail diesel. 200hp. Auto. Factory rear e-locker. Factory dual cranking batteries.

My plan is to build it up more so I started a thread on it.

This is from where I live in Norway. Oslofjord in the background.


Bike's a 2001 BMW F650GS Dakar that I've modified some. This is from my trip down to Slovenia, Croatia and Bosnia this past summer. This particular picture is from northern Croatia.
