Hi,
I’m Machelle and my husband Mike, we are just starting to get a bit more serious about overlanding. Mainly to see areas where the crowds don’t go. As for rigs, we have 2 Jeeps a 1990 and a 2012, we just got a 2024 Frontier.
We are located in Idaho. View attachment 277612

Hi All,

I’m Joe and I reside in South Jersey. I want to get into overlanding and some off-roading. I’m new to it so I have lots to learn. I have a 04 sequoia that I’m working on and I hope to do some of the meet ups soon.
Welcome Joe from North Carolina via Forked River, NJ.
