Hey, there’s a lot of trailers at these things actually. They’re very popular.I'd feel like a boob showing up with a trailer to an overlanding expo. Haha! Maybe once the truck is in featherlander gear.

I used to work at Fort Stevens. Lots to explore there. It's up past Hammond. Seaside is just a basic tourist beach town. Cannon Beach is a snooty beach town but it also home to Indian Beach (In Ecola State Park) where i surfed as a teenager and pizza a' fetta my favorite place for pizza. Oswald West State Park is another place I surfed and one of the prettiest places on the coast. Parking lot gets crowded though. That's probably a whole day or more right there. Tillamook is a depressing swamp that smells like cow shit but it does have a nice ice cream factory and a massive blimp hanger with an air museum inside. To the west of it is my favorite hidden coast town Oceanside which is best at low tide where you can walk through a tunnel to the beach.Gonna spend the day at a beach tomorrow, for Paige’s birthday. @RevN3 - any suggestions for the beaches / beach towns in this screenshot:

Most of the "free" costal places are just pullouts and the legality of camping there is often in question. People may knock on your door and tell you to leave. These people may or may not have the authority to do so. The Siuslaw National forest is DENSE so it can be difficult to even find a pull out as shown here:@RevN3 we have a couple weeks until the expo in Bend. We’re probably gonna hop around in the highlighted area in the screenshot. It looks to me like there’s plenty of pretty places for camping/4x4 along the coast of this area/national forests.
Wow, thank you! This is good stuff that I’ll take the time to read through tonight. Your post isn’t a mess - the videos will be helpful too.Most of the "free" costal places are just pullouts and the legality of camping there is often in question.

This area is a good place to go but you can't get to the top of the mountain anymore because they are building another relay tower right now:Original link: https://youtu.be/BYFKyxj5gjQ
IMHO the best dispersed camping spot in that area is in this video:Original link: https://youtu.be/cwjTmMcc8F0
I can get you directions and coordinates, it's just north of Reedsport. It's a pretty lawless place though. Sometimes that's not a problem, sometimes it can be sketch. Same story here:Original link: https://youtu.be/rgWUprXq8P8
I've found iOverlander to be pretty hit or miss around here, mostly miss. Not so much "campspots" as "places you can get just off the road and get a few hours of sleep before moving on" if that makes sense. I'll share any spots I have with you though.
EDIT: Holy crap, I just wanted links to the youtube not the videos themselves! Ugh, my post is a mess.
I don't really have a place, I have a friend who I help do all the work on the truck. I can tell you NOT to go to Litha Toyota in Springfield as they are straight up crooks. Kendall in Eugene is okay but not respectful of your time.

Do you recommend a modded-friendly Toyota service center? I only need routine maintenance but I bet my tie rods are shot too.
Idk if you’ll be familiar with this road, but last night this is where we stayed. It was nice and we woke up to a moist and lush (lol) rainforest. This road goes FOREVER so we might go back and just keep driving it for our next spot.I don't really have a place, I have a friend who I help do all the work on the truck.
