Im finally getting around to starting my build thread. This build has been a blast as well as challenging. This is NOT a 40k dollar rig decked out with top of the line equipment. Mainly because I don't have that kind of finances for this hobby...lol but it is in fact a fully capable overlanding rig that has/will create(d) many long lasting memories with my wife and kids. Isn't that whats its all about anyway? I will continue posting throughout the next week or so to bring you guys to the current state in which it sits now since this is long overdue.
All of this has been over the course of about a year and a half.
