No kidding! if you come visit lets meet up! I work form home now I am a director of security for a gov contractor company. I moved here from San Antonio 2 years ago when I married my wife who lived here and whose kid was just starting highschool.
I should be coming through in March to see the rents! Will definitely hit you up prior to that to share details and timeframe of when I may travel through!

Welcome we have only joined a few weeks ago. But love the idea of adventure. Had a family event in Fresno. Camped at Millerton Lake. Not really off roaring but better than a hotel.
Hi Chris,

Welcome to Overland Bound!

Wow, I like those 4runners. Enjoy.

New overlander here in N. GA. My wife and I are in our mid-50's and kids are out of the house. We have a 2020 Wrangler JLU and 2021 Gladiator Mojave. Mojave will be our primary overlanding vehicle. Can't wait to get out and start experiencing more of what our great country has to offer. Until retirement it may only be 2-3 weeks a year but we're going to try and make the best of that time!

OB has a great list of core values. As a beginner in all this I especially like #16:

We support those seeking answers, understanding we all start somewhere.

Hi Mark,

Welcome to Overland Bound!

Nice Gladiator. 2 days ago I had the opportunity to ride in a Gladiator for the first time and was thrilled.
