    2004 Tacoma vs. 1997 Land Cruiser: Long Term Ownership

    Let me help you have a harder decision. Saw this on CL and thought about this thread... 1983 Toyota Tacoma SR5 4WD https://neworleans.craigslist.org/ctd/d/metairie-1983-toyota-tacoma-sr5-4wd/7419134581.html Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk

    OBS F250 Build

    Looks great! Question, why did you get a 6BT instead of rebuilding and/or upgrading the 7.3? I don't know the exact specs of either without doing aa quick search, so I'm just curious. Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk

    Scepter Water Jug - What am I Doing Wrong?

    Does anyone have a link or brand for the battery powered water pump y'all are speaking of? I'd love to have something rechargeable and non permanent for these water jugs. Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk

    Quick pitch style vehicle mounted shower enclosures

    I know this is old, but DFG off-road just came out with a nice one that seems quick deploy and has grommets at the bottom for staking down for wind. Plus has a built-in LED strip that plugs into a USB port in your vehicle. I would love to have one but not anytime soon. Maybe next year. Sent...

    Why buy a land cruiser?

    That's interesting, I had no idea. Thanks for that! Oh yea, there's a lot to be said about their durability when they continue to run in these third world countries like they do. It's pretty incredible to think about. And some you see to this day are older models. Sent from my Pixel 5 using...

    Why buy a land cruiser?

    I'm not a huge fan of Toyota, but I recognize them as having good products. My wife has a 92 Lexus LS400 so I know they make solid vehicles. I just liked my F150 better than the tundras at the time. That said, someone mentioned land cruisers used by ISIS and others during war.... Behold...

    F-150 suspension upgrade ideas?

    We have Radflo 2.5s all around on our truck and it sagged both before and after the suspension upgrade. We have a ARE topper, decked drawer system, fridge in back, and a rack on top of the topper. We have a full size KO2 spare under the truck as well. We decided to get an Auto Spring add a leaf...

    switching from a 4runner to a full size?

    Have you thought about getting a bigger SUV like the Sequoia, Expedition, or Armada? Doesn't Toyota have a off-road package for the Sequoia? And the other two would have AWD/4wd at least. You could have pretty much everything you love about your 4runner and have more carrying and towing...

    How did Voyagers/HBC Outfitters do it?

    Cool thread! thanks all for the book recommendations too. I would like to think it was a combination of things. They most probably used wool undergarments/skivvies on during sleep with the wool blankets. Plus back then the use of fur was much more widely used. Getting under a fur skin would...

    F150 - 2.7L vs 3.5L vs 5.0L

    2011 was the first year for the 5.0. 20q0 was the new gen body style with the old 5.4. I think you could get the Ecoboost that year as well. Plus of course the heavy iron horse 6.2. Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk

    Second Alternator Charging Lithium Battery Bank

    Agreed John. If you have a VR, you don't need the sterling device. Just have the VR cut the field wire on the alternator whenever you reach a cutoff. It shuts the alternator down fast enough to prevent blowing the alternator diodes. Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk

    LIfePo4 charging?

    Oh ok, 100ah nice. What brand did you go with now that I'm interested? [emoji28] 8 gauge is adequate, it will limit your amps but that's fine. We bought a Amazon special 4ga jumper cable for our wire to the bed of the truck. It's not Marine grade, but for this use it's plenty good enough. I...

    LIfePo4 charging?

    Nice, glad to hear! I didn't see it mentioned, but what size or model battery did you get? I have the same setup as you from what it seems. I put a on/off switch and auto charge relay for the battery in the back. Lithium would be nice when this battery goes in a few years. Yea, I could probably...

    Second Alternator Charging Lithium Battery Bank

    We had a dedicated 250A large frame DC Power Solutions alternator on our sailboat that charged a 540ah LiFePO4 bank that was regulated by a Balmar 612 regulator. We had the field wire on a switch to turn on or off the alternator when the engine was running. The alternator would charge the...

    F150 Seat cover recs

    We just bought a rear seat cover by Weathertech for our dog. Just ordered it and haven't gotten home from offshore to install it yet. I'll let you know how the fit and finish is. We wanted a solid cover so we didn't opt for the Carhartt ones with covers for the armrest and individual seats, and...

    The full sized mid-size, my 2014 F150 "Fiddy"

    I've seen the kits, but I'll just replace the lines instead. I haven't experienced any whine or mpg and it's been since last year so 20k miles since. We have 34s ko2s on now and get 15 city and 16 hwy. When I replace the line I would love and increase in mpg but I didn't see a decrease. You can...
