I am driving a Jeep (my third FWIW) and like these ideas as well. Isn't the goal of overlanding to "go places" (to quote that other brand ;-)), and therefore any idea that makes that possible is a good one?
I came to the US 7.5 years ago (from Germany) and couldn't even bring my Harley-Davidson with me. There is a difference if you come as a visitor (< 1 year) or for longer. If you want to stay longer your vehicle has to be brought up to DOT/EPA standards in advance, and that takes time - even if...
Hey Rich,
yeah, that might be the beauty of being a travel soccer dad with games in Berryville and Front Royal :-) I am living in Loudoun county, though (up north, 5 minutes away from MD/Point of Rocks). Are you aware of Jeep/Overland meetups in our neck of the woods?
Where do you want to go...
Glad that you have found a good deal for the running board issue - just don't spend too much, because you will miss that money for the Jeep you will show up with next year ;-)
We should plan the next meeting in advance to set up a nice camp like the one in the photo below ...
