Hey guys just dropping in to introduce myself.
My Name is Jason. I live in Washington state. Just starting my Overlanding obsession. I currently own a 1997 Chevy K1500 extended Cab Short box.
Mods include
Factory dual battery set up.
K&N intake
6in lift and 35’s
True dual exhaust.
I’ve had it 20 years, so I know her pretty good.
She definitely is t very Flexy but that’s ok.
She is a good starter. My end goal is either a Jeep JK unlimited or a 4th Gen Taco. I’m undecided.
I’m very limited on trying to find a lot accessories for my truck for overlanding. Unless I build what I need. I would love a swing out rear tire carrier and a nice off road front bumper. I don’t care for the ones they make for mine. They are way to goddy. Anyway
Nice to find a new place to check out info and other builds. Thank you.

Welcome from Camano Island, nothing wrong with running the older rigs, way less electronics to go wrong

Hello Jason, Welcome to Overland Bound.

I am the Northwest Director. @Greg Eigsti is your closest member representative.

To help navigate through the forums, here are some links that can be filtered by “Region” prefix. We are in the Overland Bound North America US Northwest Region (US Northwest for short).

Overland Bound Meetups- is where all member generated rally points are posted in forum format for discussion of Rally Point and other types of Meetups. A meetup can be as simple as a group getting together for coffee, a trail ride, or a full in expedition with other Overland Bound Members.

Overland Bound Trip Planning- is a great place to talk about planning a trip wether by your self or as a group.

Overland Bound Routs: Downloadable- is exactly what it sounds like. Search, or share your GPX files here with a description of the route and POIs.

Share your Overland Routes- is similar time the downloadable posted above, but doesn’t require you to share the actual GPX file.

Overland Bound By Region < North America < US Northwest- is where you can find regional members discussing local events, Overland News, and general topics. It’s a great recourse to mete others in the regions.

Member Maps- a great trip planning tool. It can also be used to send out messages to members near your location, or a location you plan to visit.

Rally Point- a tool used to creat Meetups or send out an SOS.

Lastly, we have a monthly conference call on the third Sunday of the month starting November 15th, 2020 at 19:30 hours Pacific Time. I encourage everyone to participate in these calls as we mentor each other on various topics. November we are discussing Portable Power options.
Inland Northwest Monthly Conference Call

Any questions, don’t hesitate to ask myself or your member representative team. Again welcome Daniel and hope to see you on the trails.

Mike Rose
Northwest Director
