My name is Zach
I'm from Sandy, UT
Current Vehicle: 2016 Outback
I would say I'm an intermediate overlander. I have always loved the outdoors, camping and exploring. I got my Outback not knowing that I was going to dive headfirst into this lifestyle. I've got a 2" lift and other mods on the Outback and it suits me fine for now, but I'm going to upgrade to a 4Runner in a couple years. I mostly go solo with my dog(s) but would like to find a group to join so I don't always have to go solo.

Why Overlanding?: that's a long story lol...

I've always been an outdoor type of person and love traveling, camping, and hunting and also exploring new places. I'm also an gear head by nature and been around vehicles since I was as high as a pop can born in the "city" but always bored of my surroundings. I look at overlanding as a means to get away and enjoy what the outdoors has to offer.

As of today (October 23rd) I'll be purchasing a 2003 suburban. For not only overlanding but a daily driver as well.

Thanks for your time folks
