Not really new here but had issues with my old account when I got a new phone it was showing me as free member. But my computer said I paid so I had to cancel my old number and subscription and now have a new one. I like the maps but almost not worth the hassle

Good morning all,
So a quick introduction of myself and my rig,
Im Jason, live in eastern TN (Knoxville area) and drive a 2018 Ford F150 Police Responder with a full Raptor suspension swap. This is my daily driver, work rig, demo vehicle for work, and all around trip vehicle. I have not done many “overland” trips with it, but want to get more into it. I have done extensive travel and off-roading in my lifetime and recently my wife and I spent a year in a motorhome traveling the country and exploring plenty of off-road parks and trails with the truck.
I am definitely looking forward to learning more from everyone here, and looking forward to getting out on the trials.
Pictures of my truck, cause we all like pictures :)

these were taken while we were visiting Moab.

I am a Product development and Integration Engineer for a company that makes emergency vehicle lighting and equipment. We develop and manufacture our own lights, sirens, and controllers so I get to use my truck as a demo car as well as working out of it. This video shows some of the lighting we offer

This is how we traveled for a year……not necessarily overland style, but it provided a great place to relax after being out on a trail all day.
If anyone has any questions, feel free to ask.
