Hi All! 5280boss here.

We are in the Denver, Co area and have a 2021 Chevy TrailBoss along with some ATV’s we use for our adventures.

Happy to join and gain knowledge and some day be able to help provide some knowledge.

Hello Ryan, welcome to the OB family.

Hello All!

We're excited to have just joined the Overland Bound community. We've been watching the YouTube channel for over a year now and finally joined to be a part of what sounds like an amazing community. We've done a bunch of car camping over the years but would consider ourselves beginners when it comes to overlanding and really getting off-road and exploring the roads less traveled. We have a 2021 Subaru Ascent with plans to build it out but in the meantime have been getting on some easy trails to get a feel for what it can do in stock form. We're in the Los Angeles area and looking forward to connecting with others in the OB community to learn and share what we can.

Hello Mario, welcome to the OB family.

Hi All, my name is Scott. I live in Scottsdale, AZ with my wife and 2 little girls (3 and 5). We love to go and explore and looking to start camping. I have been slowly working on building out my Toyota LC200. Looking forward to potentially enjoying some time outdoors with everyone. Cheers

Hello Scott, welcome to the OB family.

Hey y'all! I'm excited to join this forum and learn as much as I can about overlanding. I'm currently residing in Mississippi.
I drive a 2021 Subaru Crosstrek with a few mods.
I have done my share of traversing through mud, ruts, rocks, sand, and rivers. Still fairly new to the overland game but hoping to change that!

Hello Sly, welcome to the OB family.

We are in Wyoming, We want to convert this one over for a trip to Alaska. And haul dogs.
2011 ram 5500, 6.7 Cummins, I have built lots of vehicles. Should be interesting and fun.

Hello Mack, welcome to the OB family.

Hello Everyone.

Ours names are Zack & Melissa. We are out of SE Wisconsin and brand new to over landing. About to have a family of 4 as we speak and getting into the planning stages of take this clan out into nature.
Rigs for now are our 5th Gen Rav4 and 18' Tundra TRD Off Road. Probably going to slowly build those but out first purchase might be a OPUS or another off road camper trailer since we will have younger children with us for now.

Really looking forward to learning out of state areas since Wi has little off roading trails for full sized vehicles. Along with being a hunter this all will fit in perfectly.

Hello Zack and Melissa, welcome to the OB family.

Hello All...I'm a new member as of today. I've been watching a lot of YouTube videos the last several months and I am looking forward to learning more about it. I have not bought a vehicle yet, I'm still trying to figure out what kind of truck I want to get. I'm not sure if we want a lite slide in camper or just a camper top or if we want to pull a small lite weight trailer that's built for over-landing. I am open to hear suggestions. We live in the Travelers Rest, SC area and we love the mountains. Next year sometime we want to travel out west to do some beginner type over-landing, camping and fishing in Montana and Colorado. I'll be traveling with my wife, I think she's looking forward to this next adventure. Thank You in advance for any recommendations on any type trucks, any information would be much appreciated.

Kindest Regards,
R Coker

Noob here. I’ve lurked for a while and finally became a member. I drive a 2019 Ram 1500 4x4 as a daily family hauler that gets me around the cattle pasture for fishing. I’m here to get out, explore more, and meet cool and interesting people along the way.

Been interested for a while, but now finally moving forward into it a little bit more. Working on purchasing a RTT on the trailer and setting that up and have the kayaks on top of the Jeep since it's a DD and don't go camping as much as I'd like to. Adulting gets in the way.

1)
2) Northern Virginia
3) 2021 Jeep Gladiator
4) General camping, hammocking. Usually with Trail Ragnar Relays or up in WV.

No doubt, this is my third Jeep build. Thanks for the link and my trailer is a Dinoot one.

Hello friends! I'm Dave from the Napa Valley in California. Glad to have finally joined! Looking forward to being a part of this community. Love my first and 4th gen 4-runners and used some extra time at home during covid to build out a nice camping vehicle. This is a great community I can tell. Have watched every one of the Overland bound youtube videos and have learned so much.

Welcome to the family. One of the great things about this forum is the amount of Rams hanging out.

Hello Ryan, welcome to Overland Bound. I made a choice in vehicles based on reliability as I am terrible at turning a wrench. I also do not enjoy “wrenching”. :)
