My wife and I have been watching Overland Bound on YouTube for some time and with quarantine we decided to become members. We took our F150 down to Baja the first of March for 2 weeks just before everything started going crazy. We had a great time and are planning to go back. Living in SLC Utah we have spent a lot of time out exploring the back country. Like I said we have an F150. It is a 2003 setup with a 4wheel Hawk camper from the 80's that I rebuilt. We also have a 2010 Tacoma TRD Off Road that we are going to replace the Ford with.

New member here, from Memphis Tennessee. I drive a 1997 4runner that I am slowly but surely getting settled as an off-road capable rig. Look forward to meeting some new people who enjoy the outdoors as much as I do.

Hiya folks!

I'm new to the overlanding lifestyle. I'm in Philadelphia and I'm deciding whether to make some additions to my 2014 Ford Raptor SCREW with 93K on the clock or put the money into a new Raptor and mods. I'm interested in learning from those with more experience about everything from vehicle issues to places to explore.

My experience to this point has been limited to traveling overland in various military vehicles.

Greetings!
I am not novice to off-roading but novice to overlanding. I am in Elizabeth, New Jersey (for now) and I have a 2015 Jeep Renegade Trailhawk. I heard good things about Overland Bound and can’t wait to learn new things and interact with you guys.
