Hi I’m From Denver

I have a 2018 Toyota 4Runner SR5 mostly stock.

Im looking to get Kings suspension or fox shocks installed in the future.

Only real modification I’ve done so far is a ARB awning

I’m looking to go ultralight

Any recommendations on suspension wheels and tires would be great. I don’t wanna sacrifice my gas mileage.

Hello Daniel, welcome to the OB family.

Hello! I’m an old school off-road guy, not new to the woods, but embracing the overlanding adventure. I live about 25 mins south of Atlanta Airport, always looking for back roads and that “sweet spot.” I look forward to learning, growing, and meeting as many like-minded folks as I can. Stay safe, ask if I can be of help or assistance, love talking about ham radio and off-grid communications.

Hello,
Name is Kerry and I am in Central Texas. Have a couple different platforms. My main rig is my 2018 Ram 2500. Other rig is a 2007 Rubicon. Recently rigged the Ram up for tent camping with a RTT so I could use that for my trout fishing trips to NM and CO. It's easier than outline the RV. Need to upgrade to a bed rack or a camper shell because I installed a decked drawer system and the Thule rack won't work the way I want. Look forward to meeting you all and maybe hearing you on the Ham radio (W5KDP). Here is a pic of my recent trip to the Rio Costilla in NM.

Hello everyone,

Hello All,

Jon here from Corona, California. A new member to Overland Bound.

I have a 2018 TRD Off Road Toyota Tacoma. I Started building my rig since 2019 and the build never ends! I have taken my rig, with my wife and two kids to many places and trails since then. Imogene pass, Chicken Corners, Toquerville Falls and so on.. Looking forward to learn a lot of new things from the Overland Bound community.

First post here. I plan to order a new Gladiator as soon as the divorce is final. (Don't ask unless you want to hear the tawdry details.) I'll be a few months building it to anything overlanding worthy, as I am also looking to buy land and build a barndominium East of DFW. I drive a company vehicle as my DD, so my Gladiator will be lightly used and I can not worry about being DD practical. I used to have a Jeep and miss it. I don't have the desire to get into rock crawling for crawling's sake. I like camping so I'm hoping this will be a good fit.

Hope to meet some of you soon,

Donald

Welcome to Overland Bound Donald
The Gladiator is an awesome platform, I took mine on the Continental Divide 2500 miles without any issues.
