Thank you for having us. Our family of three has been living full time in an RV for over two years now. Started in a truck camper, moved to a fifth wheel and now live in a class A. We decided to get a Jeep and since have been really excited about getting away from people and enjoying a different kind of vehicle travel. We feel the “Overland” environment is exciting and the RV world is a means to an end. Anyway, looking forward to building my knowledge with you all!

Welcome! I a novice too. I'm over in Clarksville TN. If you look under Rallies, you see that there is a monthly meet up in Knoxville. That might be worth the drive. I'll have to see if I can make a run over some time! Look forward to getting out and meeting new people to bestow some knowledge on me!!!
Hey Chuck,
Sorry for the delay in my reply, I'm still finding my way around this place. Looks like we're about 4hrs apart, how's that for Social Distancing? ha, ha. I can't recall being in Clarksville offhand, but I do remember riding up to Paducah, KY about a decade ago for a motorcycle gathering so I had to have passed by it. I'll look at the Rallies you mentioned and see if we can't make one sometime.

Hello everyone, I thought introduction was past due lol. I’ve been around for some time but just lurking. I’m Jeff, me and my wife Larissa live in Georgia and we always liked to travel. In 2017 we tried something different and decided to drive from Georgia to California. We filled up a rented Santa Fe with a pop up tent and some stuff we thought we needed and headed west.
6000+ miles later after stopping by Grand Canyon, sequoia national park, Yosemite, Arches and few other places we decided we needed more. We planned, bought some stuff and ended up with a humble but sweet setup. Now we can go anywhere we want to go without a problem. Hope to see you guys out there some day. Stay safe and explore. ✌

Howdy! My name is Mike. I live in Texas and rather new to the "Overland" community. My wife and I regularly offroad with several members from OLB so we decided to join. Before the COVID-19 days, we typically were hitting the trails about twice a month. Our adventuring started last year when we purchased a 2019 Toyota Tacoma OR 4x4 DCSB. At the time the purchase was made for a Thanksgiving Colorado trip where we were staying in a secluded cabin 10,000ft up. We fell in the rabbit hole shortly after the purchase and started offroading and Overlanding. Thanks for the add and we look forward to seeing some of you on the trail.

Welcome! We love Maine. We visit by the sea and one of our favorite marinas is right where you are, Dolphin Marina. They have loaned us a truck to visit Brunswick and grocery shop. Looking forward to visiting this year.

Hi guys and gals! My name is Adam, and I’m located in Chesterton, IN. My rig is an inferno orange 2017 Toyota Tacoma TRD- Off-Road with 5ft bed. I’ve got a lot of mods I’d like to do in the future for this truck, but I don’t want to get too carried away with it, it being my daily driver. With that being said, I’m very new to off-roading, but I’m eager to learn as much as possible about it and have some fun along the way. I really enjoy hiking and camping and can’t wait to explore some trails. I haven’t met any overland members in my area yet, but would like to.
