Hey guys,
Bought a 97 land cruiser at the beginning of the pandemic - fearing for the impending zombie apocalypse - no camping in it yet :/

1997 triple locked no roof rack black Toyota Land Cruiser

I used to camp all the time when younger. Now it's time for my little ones to do the same, but in a land cruiser!

Coming out of Long Island NY
Welcome Alex. Love the triple locked Landies, you've got a great machine to build from!

Hello all,

New to the forum but would love to share my build with you all. So I currently drive a 2019 Toyota Tacoma Sport, it has a three-inch lift and sitting on 33s. I am new to Overlanding but have embraced it head-on, I have been traveling the southwest and camping in my newly built sleeping platform. I have explored Utah, New Mexico, California, and Arizona and I am hoping to add to the list.

Thank you and glad to be part of the community

Hi Cristian, welcome to the OB community! Great looking setup you have. When you're ready to ad Colorado to your list, connect with some of the members here and look for Rally Points, we'd love to show you around our state!

Hey all,

My name is Dan Serrao. I am in the process of building a truck camper in my 2003 Chevy Silverado. I currently have a Leer utility cap with a metal bed frame for overnights. I use two totes, one for food and one for cooking utensils. They slide underneath the bed frame. I have a car refrigerator and a Bluetti EB70 power station. I have only been out once with this setup. I am retired and l look forward to many more outings. My goal is to eventually build out a plywood setup to give myself more room in the cap.

Thanks Dave, I've been baselining for the last year or so then some brake hard lines went...I ordered every hard line Toyota had (250$ for like 15 lines) very fortunate they had any as I've heard they're discontinued. Still working to get them all replaced. Big plans for the rig, trails, 4wd 247, beach, camping etc. Been following Michael and his shinanigans on this channel for a while. Glad to finally be here! Many adventures to come!

Hello from Jeff & Ginger. We've been doing small 3-4 day trips for about 7 years in our modified 2014 Wrangler Rubicon.
We're preparing to add a trailer soon to make room for our dog Jax.
Fellow Jeep owners may know us as Blue Baby Sound on several Jeep forums.

Thanks for having us!

Greetings Jeff & Ginger and welcome to Overland Bound!
