    I'm scared; transistion from 06' taco to 100 series, counsel me.

    I was on the hunt for a while and finally grabbed a 2002 LC with only 140,000 miles - the truck was insanely clean, and meticulously cared for.. My two previous trucks were both Tacomas (2004 & 2007). Traded my 07 Tacoma for a Civic while commuting and after 4 years with that need no longer...

    No plan, No problem, One will present itself

    Great trip report. DV is amazing. I can feel your pain on the uncertainty of driving on snow in the middle of nowhere. I've only done it a few times and really don't look forward to doing it again. Prepared or not, there seems to be a thinner line between failure and success..

    Sunsets

    Sorry for the late response... but yes, I currently live in R.B. but am relocating to San Elijo Hills in Oct. Can't wait to get away from the I15. I work in Solana Beach so it's not unusual for me to catch some sweet sunsets.

    Need Tire Advice...

    Thought I might chime in since you're on the Revo subject. I was boucing the BFG idea around and finally decided on the Revos for many reasons. I wanted to be different, and the feedback on the tires was good. Pricing was less than the BFGs for me as well. I have had them for about 6 months and...

    FJ cruiser mod and accessories thread

    I agree with you on the visiblity thing Nullfier. Although I haven't had the pleasure of getting inside one yet, from first glance it does appear that it would have some visibility issues. And as previously stated, it would be nice to grab hold of one once the hype wears off. Also, maybe I am...

    6 speed manual vs automatic

    My $.02 may be skewed as I don't even own an 05' or 06', however my father does and he opted for the auto which in my opinion was the better choice. Correct me if I am wrong, but the auto actually posts better 0-60 times than the manual...if that's of concern. I currently own a 5spd in an 04 and...

    FJ cruiser mod and accessories thread

    This past saturday I saw 3 FJs rolling around San Diego. They are taller than I thought they'd be. Not that it is a bad thing. I really want one of them in my driveway. SWR, nice photo you found.

    Anyone in SoCal Up For A Drive?

    I have yet to meet with the SoCal members:( I am interested in meeting someday, but both weekends are booked for me. Hopefully I can meet up with the E.P. crew soon. And, don't underestimate your truck. A stock Tacoma 4x4 is very capable. I don't believe I have really experienced all my truck...

    Volkswagen Synchro Vanagon

    Very interesting and unique vehicles. The Moab photo is insane! I have only seen a handfull of them in Southern California and I have always been very interested in them. They do seem like a good platform for expedition travel.

    whoops, this shouldn't have gone in the expedition thread... I meant to put it in the completed adventure thread. Sorry.

    Death Valley 3/25-3/26

    I completed my first trek through Death Valley this past weekend and I must say that it was quite memorable. We looped through Death Valley from Wildrose Canyon up to the ghost town of Skidoo, down to Stovepipe Wells, up to Scotty's Castle and from there a pit stop at the Ubehebe Crater. After...

    SWR meets Toyota 2007 FJ Cruiser

    Great pictures! They really have grown on me. I really like them in Black also. Is it just me, or does the exhaust piping just behind the cross member & underneath the transfer case seem to be in a vunerable place? (sure it's been brought up before...) Really though they seem well put together...
