Hello I'm kyle and am fairly new to this. I used to something similar when I was younger but never had any equipment really. Now I have a big family and would love to try to do this to try to create memories with my kids.
I have a 2000 tacoma ext cab with a small lift kit. Also have a 2004 suburban that's not in the best of shape but it fits everyone lol.
I'm from southern indiana and would love to find some spots close that we could get our feet wet with.
Hello and welcome to the OB family.

Hi Kyle,

Welcome to the OB community from us all in France.

Overlanding is a fantastic experience with children we loved travelling with our son, before he left home.

Cheers Paul and Nicky
