I'd have said that this looks like a great beach rig, but you've got a few badges on there so you've put it to work :).

Hey everyone! My name is Joss and I live in the Dallas, TX area. I'm new to overlanding but spent much of my younger years camping and hiking. Overlanding seemed like the natural progression to take it a bit easier on my body by not hauling 1/3rd of my body weight in gear along with me to a campsite. I'm looking to meet other folks to meet up and get into the hobby with and figured this would be a great place to do so. My rig is a 2019 Ranger that I just picked up recently and just got back from the shop with a fresh suspension.

Brian & Mike - jointly Yeti4x4DMV. We're old Navy buds that found ourselves with a couple of TRD OR's, one Tacoma and one 4Runner, both in Lunar Rock. We though it'd be fun to adventure the trucks some. We're based around the DC area and are hoping to take a bone stock Tacoma and slightly modified 4Runner out and about to explore more of the region. Happy to meet up when we're able and VERY open to suggestions for areas to explore. Hope to meet soon!

Hello, I'm Ginger from Seattle.
I have an 06 4runner with a spacer lift, a budget and comfy offroader.
Done Tahuya, Washington BDR, and other trails in WA.
I'm a beginner, I haven't done crazy recoveries or anything like that.

I plan on doing the pan-american highway from Argentina to USA early next year, but I'm having a hard time understanding the legalities of buying a motorcycle as a non-resident in Argentina.
If anyone could point me in the right direction, I would be grateful :)
