[kcTrek19]

Hello all. I have been following mike on his youtube channel for years and now just figured i would join the forum. funny story i picked up my 2019 subaru crosstrek 6mt right before the whole covid 19 quarantine happened. planning in the future to do the king springs skid plates and some offroad tires. haven't figured out tires for the build yet.

How long does it take to get your member number and upgrade access code?

 

[kcTrek19]

if you just did it today i would give 24-48 hours and you should have it. If you bought the badge membership it may be a little while as they are waiting for the next batch of badges to finish being made.

Hey Everyone! I'm Casey Miles and I'm a full time firefighter in South Caroline. I drive a 2019 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon. I'm still kinda new to overloading but I have a lot of experience in camping. Looking to make friends and discover new places to ride and camp at! Thank you everyone!

OK I did it yesterday around noon. Not worried about the mailed in badge. Just making sure I didn't miss something. Guess I figured the email with member number would shoot out pretty quick. Thanks for the info.

Hi all, I'm new to this forum stuff, not so new to the trails.
My name is Todd
I drive a 2008 Toyota Tacoma and live in Las Vegas NV. I originally set my truck up so that I would be able to go to some of the more remote mountain bike trails and be able to stay a few days. Before I knew it I'd built an overland rig. Not perfect but it mine. Then on Instagram I started to see people getting these cool little metal medallions and I had to find out more.View attachment 149300

Hi Todd, welcome to the OB community.

Thank you!

Well folks - I'm back and doing my part to keep the Spammers out. I got my "Member Number" now and I'm on my way…22651. Feelin' like part of the community a little more every day...

 

[Ol' Scooter]

Oh yeah, I'm just trying to jump through all the New Member "hoops" and I forgot to mention with my previous post, but I have added my "About Me" comments so that anyone who wants to can kinda dig into it…that is all…except "I Am Not A Robot!"

Howdy everyone!

I have been familiar with OB for a while now through the YouTube presence but I've been wanting to get connected with the overlanding community for a while now. I'm born & raised in the PNW so I've spent lots of time outdoors both with and without vehicles but I have a strong connection to vehicles and the freedoms they provide, so much so that I've been professionally employed in the automotive industry for 19 of the last 20 years. I've had a few 4wd vehicles in my fleet (mostly Toyota) but I've always wanted a Disco 2. After I found out randomly that the Wife was fond of them too it was off to the races. We love road trip adventures to see all the beautiful places around us & I want to provide her and our 16yo daughter some of the "glamping" comforts they enjoy.

I love building/customizing vehicles of all sorts and have set the course of action to turn the Disco into something that we can go explore even more with. I look forward to engaging with everyone here, the platform seems to be very well structured & I hope to meet up with some of you once the dust settles.

-Chris

Hi, I'm Teng just finished putting a lift on an old 2003 4rumner and I think I'm ready for some adventures. My kids have all moved out, still working but now have some time to meet new people and see at least some places in Southern California where I live. Nice to be here.
