What kind of recovery devices do you or others carry in case you get stuck? |

Nice setups!
I like the 4Runner without the roofrack. Looks clean I'm really into the newer 4R styling. They did a great job. FJ community is pretty great. It's a group that attracted a lot of new offroaders. Quote:

It's not just the power delivery, the V8 4Runners had much smoother transmissions. I had a 2004 4Runner Sport with the V8 and it was the best overall vehicle for getting up in the mountains (lived in SLC at the time). I have a 2013 Tacoma now and when we drive up to Tahoe it seems to hunt for a gear time to time depending on road angle. I would jump on a new V8 4Runner if they ever came back.

2008 4Runner V8 Limited 4x4 Tacoma TRD suspension swap w/ FJ Springs for the rear (since upgraded to Radflo 2.5" kit) Cooper AT/3 C-load tires Frontrunner roof rack CVT Mt. Cayley RTT Various recovery devices - TREDs, XJack, Straps & Shackles​ We had two coolers, a Yeti to be the "freezer" and a Coleman as our daily fridge/defroster. My wife cooked up a storm before we headed out and froze some tasty dinners as well as made some granola for breakfasts. We mostly ate lunch on the road. We used two 5 gal Scepter jerry cans to make sure we had plenty of water. Quote:

Just getting around to some pictures from May.
I did a road trip with the LC and got some nice rides in Laguna Beach Ca > Crestone CO > Moab UT > Zion UT Learned alot about the truck and even more about myself... camping by yourself can be both lonely and scary, not as romantic as i had anticipated Last edited by andeww; 09-25-2020 at 10:50 PM. |

And on the up side, if you haven't read it yet, you can be inspired by Jon Krakauer's story "The Devils Thumb" in "Eiger Dreams." Sublime stuff. |

You have to learn to de-clutter and organize the mind. It's a bit like going on a silent retreat. The first few days your brain is racing all over because most of us either talk to try to organize or never really organize by just keep talking. .

Not out place if it can accommodate the right tires for the intended rides.
I know you were just kidding (somewhat). |
