Gretchen and Taylor Hood

Taylor and Gretchen are avid travelers and are always looking for an adventure. They spend a bit of time overlanding in Baja every year and are always ready to get away. In 2015, they started turning their dream into a reality, bringing Sportsmobile rentals to Portland, Oregon. Taylor and Gretchen want more people to be able to access the beauty of the Pacific Northwest. Both intrigued and captivated by “the van life,” they spend as much time as they can touring around in their personal van. They tend to pack up every weekend and hit the road—sometimes for just a few days and sometimes for longer. Either way, they are happy to get out and experience something new. By starting ROAMERICA, they hope that more people and families will get out and explore: leave the chaos behind and go ROAM!
