New to Overlanding but not to off-roading and wilderness camping. Just starting the Overland build on my 2004 F-150 FX4 SuperCrew so I can get back to woods. Looking forward to seeing other members builds and getting some ideas. I look forward to meeting some of you out on the trails across our beautiful country.

I'm exploring/overland around Southern California area and will extend to near by beautiful National park. My goal of over-landing is to explore and get to photogenic location to capture the moments.
Currently, i have a Subaru FXT 18 with 2" lift, AT tires and TorqMaster locker. It has been one year since i started and still new to this.

Here is the photo of my accidental ascending Lippincott while trying to get to the Racetrack and trip to Mengel Pass in Death Valley.

My name is Natalie, my friends call me Hamma...

I'm from the outskirts of Lafayette, Louisiana

I drive a 2016 Toyota 4Runner

My experience is mainly weekend outings whenever I can. But my big trip was back in 2016... I had a 2015 Ford F-150 which I drove up to the Pacific Northwest. I planned out a 2 week camping roadtrip and I had an absolute blast. I came home and I purchased a 4Runner to begin modding it the way I want it to. I CAN NOT wait to do that kind of trip again.

What region would Louisiana be considered as?

My name is Jason and I live in SC (Greenwood). I currently drive a 2wd Tahoe and am looking forward to 4X4 ranks with a truck to build out in the not so distant future. I love exploring whether it be on foot (running/ hiking), mountain bike, or vehicle.

Hello, I'm from Merced, California. I have a 1992 Jeep YJ with a 6" lift and riding on 35". I have been wheeling rocks for 8 yrs and I'm kinda done with the rocks for a while. I really love driving trails and camping along the way. I joined Overland Bound because I like how organized and positive the Overland Bound community is. I'm looking forward to forming new relationships with others. There is a world of trails to explore and I'm ready to go.

Hey guys! We're not new-new here, but I suppose it would be good to formally introduce ourselves!

  1. We're located here in the Bay Area, CA. Wagan Tech is headquartered in Hayward, CA since 1983.
  2. We're building out a 1999 Lexus LX470 (Land Cruiser 100 series). Stay tuned for the full build.
  3. Our families love the outdoors and camping, so overlanding was a natural extension for us. Our first official OB Rally was Shaver Lake. Looking forward to many other adventures with the community! Thanks for your support!
Feel free to ask if you have any questions about us or our products!

Here's our Top9 from 2019 on my personal @AlexAtWagan IG account. Be sure to follow @WaganTech!
