I don’t live in WI but I work in SE WI so I’m not that far. I’m just getting started but I’m purchasing a Frontier because I’ve read they’re pretty great for this stuff, and I’ve definitely got plans for it. I’m 35, also Army, and I’ve always had an interest in survivalist stuff, which led me to overlanding. I look forward to learning alongside ya and maybe even meeting one day!

How's it going RamRod?
So you drive across that border on a daily basis for work huh? No thank you,lol. Your a better man than I.
Ya frontiers are nice SUV'S. I myself will most likely choose my GMC Yukon SLT instead of my Silverado 2500HD. Easier to maneuver in and out of tight spaces, more agile and articulation on the trails. But definitely got some work to do before some serious overlanding. Updated front end parts and a progressive 4-5 inch lift with protection plates of course.

Ya I wouldn't mind meeting sometime and tackling some minor trails.

How far into southeastern wi do you go into?

Thank you for the info. I will definitely check it all out.

Been on here for a couple weeks now. The Wisconsin state seems to be kinda dead for communication and such and learning bout the trails and what and whatnot my rig can handle.

So just means I will have to treat lightly when I decide to do some overlanding in Wisconsin by myself and be more cautious and learn along the way. A survival background i have, but not really overlanding.

Maybe as time goes on some Wisconsin members will want to get out and maybe let me tag along for some runs. I do hear that winter snow overlanding can be a great time, beautiful but also a great time to get out and learn.
