    older LC or newer 4Runner?

    Hi all...The wife and I are looking at replacing our current truck (an older Infiniti QX56). We are in the very early stages of thinking about this, but at the moment we are thinking the budget will be about $40K. I'm fairly set on a Toyota that has good aftermarket support. So it looks like...

    Black Series Alpha or LivinLite Quicksilver?

    I've been looking at "pop up" type campers for my family for a little while now, and I've got it narrowed down to these two. We are a family of four with one kid being about 6 and the other about 2 plus a small dog with a budget max of $10K (Although honestly we will probably wait till next...

    1st Gen Armada/QX56 air suspension question

    I've been doing some thinking about the air suspension on my 2010 QX56, and I wanted to run my thought by some other people to see if I'm missing something. I like having the air suspension in the truck; it rides nice, and obviously adapts the truck to different load outs. My thought though...

    Water Crossing with a Mechanical Fan?

    I'm sure this has been discussed before, but I couldn't find anything when I searched. For those of you who do more substantial water crossings...What do you do about mechanical engine fans? Do you switch over to a manually controlled electric fan setup, do you disconnect the drive belt before...

    I need help figuring out wheel & tire fitment

    Hi all, I need some help figuring out what I need for proper fitment of my next set of wheels and tires. The vehicle is a 2010 Infiniti QX56. It came from the factory with 275/60R20, and big heavy chrome 20x8" wheels (that I have been unable to find definite specs on). I'm planning on doing...

    Tire losing air in an odd way?

    I need some help figuring out what is going on with my tire. A couple of weeks ago It started constantly losing air, but in some very odd ways. I fill it up to 40psi (a normal pressure for the tires), and within a day it is down to 30psi, then it only loses about 2psi every day after. For the...

    Question about Ram HD

    Every since AEV first started showing concepts of their prospector/XL, I've been dreaming about getting one. The other day I was reading the recent "top 10 used overland vehicles" Here on Expedition Portal, and it said that the 2010-2012 Ram 2500/3500 was a top pick. Where I have a question is...

    How many of you run tire "slime" in your tires all the time?

    I have two tires on my truck that have slow leaks, and I planning on putting tire slime in them to seal the leaks. I typically avoid the stuff, as it makes changing a tire a messy ordeal. However, I also don't feel like pulling the tires apart, and grinding the rims, and re-balancing...etc...

    Removable Drawer System?

    Hi All, Does anyone have any tips for making a removable drawer system. A drawer system seems like it would help organize, and make packing out our SUV a much easier task. However, we fill the back of our SUV at least weekly, and so we can't really afford to permanently loose that cargo space...

    Has anyone used this snorkel?

    Hey all, I'm still trying to figure out if this would even fit my QX56, but it is the only snorkel I've found that might even be close to fitting. I'm kinda hesitant as there is no manufacturer named it is just ...snorkel...: https://www.4x4parts.com/i-23201491-armada-snorkel.html

    Can anyone in Australia help me find this.

    So I got a great deal on a Coleman 10 person blackout tent through my father in-laws company, and from what I have been reading it is a decent tent. However the rain-fly on the American version is fairly pointless. Some searching though shows the same tent is sold in Australia with a much...

    The Background: Early in 2019, my wife and I found out that we were going to have child number 2. This is something that we had been trying for and were very happy to find out…However, that brought to the front of my mind something I had wondered about since our first child, and that was how...
