*posted this is the main introductions thread then realized everyone else is posting a new topic, so I apologize if you saw this post already! I’ll figure it out soon, lol. *

Hey Everyone,

Just wanted to introduce myself quickly, I have been Following the Overland community for quite some time but wasn’t able to participate due to having a ram 3500 DRW with a flatbed and compound turbos, that weighs almost 9500 pounds. So it wasn’t particularly ideal for taking on the trails, lol. Long story short I purchased a Tacoma from a friend of mine this past week and wanted to try and get more involved here. I purchased my membership before I even owned the truck. That’s how excited I was, lol.

I’m really looking forward to meeting more people in northern CA and participating it events! Hope to see you guys around! View attachment 110761View attachment 110762

Wow beautiful Toyota looks ready to roll. Great purchase. Only thing I'd change are the tires. AT tires can cause problems on the trail. Have run them on a few of my rigs. Made some sections of the trail near impossible. Though that winch will make up for any traction issues. :) looking forward to seeing it on the trail my friend.

Thank you! Agreed on the tires, they are brand new or else I would probably change them. I’m seeing a lot of rigs with the KM3’s on them. Will most likely go that route when these wear out.

Thank You from SC. I've past through your area more than a few times on my way to Cedar Island.

Up until recently I've never spent much time exploring except for the local area. Awaiting orders by the end of this year, if I end up staying here longer I'm gonna do a lot of traveling to include the SC area to see some cool sights.
