Hi, I am Drew from south Louisiana. I have some experience vehicle camping with my last rig a 2020 Jeep Gladiator Sport S with a DIY truck camper.
I put over 100k miles on it before trading it in for a 2019 T4R TRDpro. I am in the early stages of building the 4Runner but the goal is an overlander for a family of 4.
Hello and welcome to the OB family.

I have had all the go fast toys but getting older so down to 3 rigs in the toy garage for off - road that do not need a trailer. Current project 1994 Toyota LC80 she is highly modified but not over weight yet! 2019 TRD 4 Runner also modified and used for Mexico.

Welcome! I'm also from south Louisiana, I'm in st charles parish
Do you know of any overland type trails within 3-4 hours of New Orleans?
Check out kisatchie national forest, there's a bunch of trails and fire roads to ride, there's also multiple kisatchie units to look at also.

Hello! New member here. Discovered this group and looking to get more insight on how I can pursue my beginner endeavour in overlanding with my current vehicle until I can upgrade later down the road ( see what I did there) I’m currently outfitting my VW Tiggy and myself on budget and very much enjoying each trip even though I am often limited by my vehicles capabilities. Current project looking to build a camp kitchen out of vault v800 ( open to ideas ) Open to routes in eastern and near and far northern Ontario. CheersIMG_1633.jpeg
