    Justin Wages | Ep. 31

    Send us Fan Mail On this episode of Overland Weekly, we sit down with Justin Wages (Grass Valley, CA) for a powerful, wide-ranging conversation that blends life, recovery, and off-road obsession. Justin shares his journey from a nature-filled childhood and street/drag racing days, through a life-altering cancer battle (colorectal, liver resection, lung lobe removal), to rediscovering the outdoors via mountain biking and, ultimately, overlanding. We dig into his unique path across platforms—GMC Canyon lessons learned, Nissan Xterra Titan-swap and Armada/Y62 Patrol insights, Titan XD towing horses, and why he finally jumped into a Land Cruiser 80. Now working with the team at Dissent Off-Road, Justin unpacks what he’s learned about armor, wheel offset, portals, A-TRAC vs lockers, and why a solid axle 80 on 37s made him a believer. If you love techy trail talk, wheeling stories, and honest inspiration about the healing power of the outdoors, this one’s for you.

    Beyond the Windrock Trails: The Heart of GSMTR | Ep.26

    Send us Fan Mail The Great Smoky Mountain Trail Ride, affectionately known as "G Smitter," has evolved into what many consider the premier Toyota off-road gathering on the East Coast. With a record-breaking 301 registered vehicles this year, the event showcases the extraordinary community that forms when passionate enthusiasts come together on the challenging trails of Windrock Park. Through candid conversations with trail leaders, volunteers, and participants, this episode captures the essence of what makes G Smitter special. You'll hear from Team George, whose members travel from different states to guide beginners through the trails; Aubrey from Firestone, experiencing his first time as a trail leader; Patrick Perry sharing insights as both sponsor and participant; and longtime attendees reflecting on why they return year after year. Beyond the technical challenges and impressive vehicles, G Smitter's heart lies in its inclusivity. The event welcomes all experience levels, from stock 4x4s to portal-equipped rigs with 37-inch tires. Nearly 30 volunteer trail leaders ensure everyone finds appropriate challenges while staying safe. As George Dominguez notes, "When I get home, I end up talking more about the experiences I've had at the event than the wheeling or the adventure." The stories shared—from Jake's adventures in "Large Marge" to Lee allowing friends to drive his supercharged 200-Series (with occasionally costly results)—paint a vivid picture of an event where mechanical mishaps become badges of honor and lasting memories. Whether you're contemplating attending your first off-road event or you're a seasoned wheeler looking to connect with a welcoming community, this episode offers a window into why G Smitter has earned its reputation as a must-attend gathering where the vehicles bring people together, but the friendships keep them coming back.
