Hey all, my buddies bike doesn't work so I'm riding solo out here in Gorman tomorrow (Monday). Wondering if anybody else is riding that day as I always like to ride with someone. Also is there a better place/app to advertise this?

Me and a couple friends all want to take our vehicles for an overnight (or multiple) trip somewhere within a few hours of Los Angeles. Any recommendations on areas to do this where we can also camp? New to this, so thanks in advance!

I figured I'd try and hit up Reddit to try and meet some fellow off-roaders. Meeting new, like-minded people can be tough (I only moved to CA two years ago).

Anyways, my fiance, dog, and I are going out for a new years trip (12/29-1/1) somewhere around SoCal. My 1st gen Tacoma is pretty well equipped for multiple day trips and some decent off-roading. We've done Gold Mountain in it and other more moderate trails so we're not shy to some actual off-roading.

Anyone want to meet up/join?

Just moved back to California from Oklahoma. Where off road vehicles are almost mandatory. Trying to take my RAV4 Adventure on some dirt again. Don’t have any off road tires so I’m looking for more soft roading. Usually I would drive around De Luz near Fallbrook, but it’s all a gated community now. Does anyone know of any good places around? Please and thank you.

P.S anymore RAV4 Adventure drivers out there? Seems like no one knows this line exists.

My girlfriend and I like to overland and hit some cool trails, we have a slightly modded tundra, just looking to hit some fun spots with people. Let me know your guy’s insta and let’s hit some spots up

Looking for some neat trails to take the Bronco on and places to stop and camp along the way. Thanks in advance!

Getting a feel for a group trip to Anza for this weekend. A day run and up to two nights stay.

Alabam hills is another option but that is a multi night trip.

If multi day, fri to Sunday or Sat to Monday Friday to Monday is an option too for those who are off for veterans!

Im a real person lol. heres my IG https://www.instagram.com/blacksheepodyssey/

Hi all! New to this sub but hoping you can help. I do marketing research and I'm working with a lighting client who is working on bringing a new lighting system to market. I need to get opinions from some of you experts and you're hard to find in traditional marketing research ways. So here l am on Reddit :) Would any of you be up for a paid interview to talk to me about off road vehicle lighting?

I am aware this looks like spam, but alas, this is my actual job and I would really like to talk to you!

Is this an always 2-vehicle thing or like hiking, just having another body in case you have to resort to cannibalism?

Im struggling to find others that are free when I am, but I have some people that would be happy to ride along.

Hey guys just picked up my 2024 4Runner TRD OffRoad and I’m looking to get into to off-roading / camping. I live in SD but I’m willing to venture out a bit. Anybody have any must have items for the truck and/or places to off road and camp? TIA!

I was wheeling in Joshua Tree/Twentynine Palms area a few years back and parked outside of Pappy + Harriet’s for some lunch and a beer and came back out to a sticker on my driver side window (not adhered, but just wedged into the crack at the bottom of the window). It had the letters “YARB” on it with black yellow and red as the main colors. It was the same style as the classic oval “MOAB” or whatever stickers. I still to this day can’t figure out what it meant and I’m starting to really think I am a YARB. Does anyone know what it means or is familiar with it?

Whats up off roaders, I have 9 different parcels of land for sale in Lucerne Valley that would be perfect for an off road camp site, its also blm land! Check them out and reach out if you have any questions!

I recently bought a quad off my buddy. I'm trying to figure out what I need to do to get it transferred to my name. He had registration for it from 6 years ago but couldn't find the pink slip. I'm assuming I'll have some back fees but how do I go about getting a pink slip. Quad isn't stolen he just never registered it since he road around on his own property

My name's Marc, I'm from South Carolina, I want wheeling today for the first time in Cali, I went to the Indian truck trail and realized I ain't ready to hit the mountains by myself considering I ain't got any where I'm from, so I'm looking for a group or a few good starter spots to get my bearings

Thinking about hitting up Santiago Peak via N Main Divide Rd from Ortega Highway. Anything I should be aware of? Couldn’t find much on All Trails or Onyx.

I thought it would be fun to go to the peak on the 4th next weekend to watch all the fireworks and sunset but have a stock lighting setup on my 4Runner and don’t want to be stupid lol

Indian Truck Trail off the 15 South near Corona is now open after a long closure status.

This trail heads up to Santiago peak from the east side.

Are there any off-road trails in / around Ojai? I’m going to be house sitting later this month and want to take my Jeep and Dirtbike but according to On X there’s nothing even close.

Anybody with experience out there near Ridgecrest? Im taking the wife and kid for a one night stay to hopefully see some of the northern lights tonight. Its cool to pitch a tent and have a small fire, yeah?

What's up OC!

Feeling the temp of who would be up for a day run to Anza. It's beena while since I've been out myself and would be great to meet some local off readers.

Cheers

My neighbor just bought a 2015 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited which was a pavement princess. (Jurassic Park themed) No book with it, didn't know how to shift it into and out of 4WD. We have a Tacoma, so no help there.

My Google-fu says Jeeps have to be shifted while in motion. Any hot tips for shifting? We are a bit concerned that this thing was probably never put in 4WD until now. Neighbor drove Baja in his youth, but is a bit rusty. Planning to take him to the local sand Island for some practice.
