Maybe I should have posted here instead of a new thread lol! We're new. We'll be a 2 Ford Maverick FX4 family allowing us some limited opportunities at overlanding. Our son suggested it and, if your 17yo child wants to find more ways to spend time together, you are wise to find a way to make it happen. We don't have unrealistic expectations but with my physical limitations we shouldn't do anything crazy anyway! Looking forward to learning while we wait for my Maverick and see what we can do with my son's.
Welcome. Enjoy the ride!

For those of us that have sons or daughters whom want to spend time outdoors with us at the ages where they could choose otherwise, means we did something right. Congrats!

Location: Victorville, CA
Current Vehicle: 2017 Tundra TRD CM
Other Vehicle: 2017 Subaru Forester XT
Overland Experience: Novice
Why Overlanding?: I've always been an outdoor type of person and love traveling, camping, and exploring new places. I hunt, fish and travel a lot for work. Overlanding is a great way to combine all those experiences!
I’ve used a Starlink some to get away even more on days where I have a light work schedule and can do it remotely.

Morning all,

New to the site, and relatively new to overlanding in any formal setting. Before kids, I spent many nights using the back seat of the truck as my "tent" when on fishing trips in remote areas, but kids and a wife necessitate me being more "civilized". I do have to admit, the RTT is much more comfortable than the back of the truck. haha. Family of 4 plus bubba our beagle. We love any and all things outdoors.. camping, hiking, fishing, riding, etc.... Good to be here. Thanks all

Hey y'all, Paul from North Georgia here. I was really glad to find this group and I'm excited to get back out there. I recently made the move back to the truck world when I acquired a new 4Runner TRD Offroad. I originally purchased it to haul my fishing kayak since some of the spots I go to are off the beaten path as they say but I've found that I really enjoy the off roading aspect. I'm looking forward to meeting some new folks and actually using all the capabilities of this machine. I can already tell I'm heading down the rabbit hole lol
Welcome to OB!

Welcome, enjoying the outdoors is key. Overlanding comes in many different forms.
