So, we missed the simple things. It's not that we don't love having a fridge and a poptop with nice suspension, but there is something about simplicity. The same reason a motorcycle ride can be so much better than a ride in a much more comfortable new car on the same road. You're out IN it...

I saw a lot of "Overlanders" down there. Who went, who raced, who took photos and videos? We raced #1074. RM 375 to 607. I was in the car for 13 hours. Sorting through the videos and writing up some sort of race summary now. Post what you've got! A little 2020 Baja 1000 Prerun video. This is...

We sat down with Andy Dacey to go over the new "Recovery Ring" from 7P. It's a synthetic line and soft shackle only pulley block with no moving parts. It's really more of a walk through than a full review since there is so little info out there we wanted to put something together. Cheers!

We put together a little unboxing and review video while we're on the road. Although I hadn't used it out of necessity as of the videos completion we've now had a flat (Big chunk of metal from the Mexican highway) and we used it down in a wash a minute later to change a flat. Worked well for us...

Well, here goes nothing. It's hard to believe it's finally our time! :eek: Notice has been given at our jobs, the house is being rented and after working Overland Expo West 2018 we're heading out! Follow along: www.dirtsunrise.com https://www.instagram.com/dirtsunrise...

It’s high time to show my pops what I’ve been wasting my free time and money on for the last 20 something years. So, my dad is 73 and for the first time he expressed interest in joining my brother and I for one of our trips so we thought we’d do a bit of a highlight real of “south” Death...

Technically it’s an RV, if you live in it temporarily... right? Ah, well, whatever it is we’ve been putting in a lot of work on our truck since we drove to Canada over a weekend in January to cut the roof off and graft on a Campteq poptop. It was high time we went out and used it lest we forget...

So, pretty simple. Fly to Las Vegas. Pick up my vehicle for the week. (1991 FJ80). Drive to Red Rocks state park. Spend the week zigging and zagging over dirt tracks to Phoenix, AZ while training some military folks. This is more of a report than a story. I was going all out from the moment I...

I decided to go ahead and sell my last 2 new Scepter cans to help fund an upcoming trip. My 12 year old ones are still working fine so I'm sticking with them. I listed one on Ebay, but I have 1 more. (2 Total) Both are brand new and never had fuel in them. They are for Gasoline with the Viton...

Another latent "build" thread... We picked up this 1995 FZJ80 in 2012 and started exploring and modifying. I didn't keep a great record of the progress so I'll just go back and see what I can remember. Going forward I plan to do a bit better of a job since we're in the process of cutting the...

Well, I haven't done a build thread in a long time. This will be more of a break it and then repair it and slowly, but surely restore it... thread. Prior 4runner build thread is here...

Trip video: https://youtu.be/2T8P2qqVseA All we had was a cooler, camping gear, fire wood and full fuel tanks... Okay, so I also had tools, a tow strap, extra filters and fluids. I'm an optimist, not an idiot. In the weeks before the trip *we'd replaced the pinion seals, fixed a leaking...

Traverse the Arizona Strip Trip Expedition Year 2017... (You gotta have a catchy name, right? right.... guys.... where ya going) We headed out from work as early as we dare without calling it a day off. We were headed to meet Kevin and his daughter near Lee’s Ferry. I was actually glad we’d...

This isn't much of a trip report. Basically, I just took a few friends who are mostly new to this stuff (And some that aren't), to the lake. We parked on the end of a peninsula, made pancakes and cliff jumped from a small ledge into the water. I took them through some nice little articulation...

We spent a few days exploring the Gila's in New Mexico and looking for hot springs last week. I love NM. Part 1: https://www.hu-bar.com/single-post/2017/06/09/Wandering-New-Mexico---Part-1 We did a little video, but as you can tell I'm an amateur at video!! There is some gratuitous black...

Enough of the fridges, the gps, the apps, the gear and the toys. We were in need of a basic car camping weekend. I mean, the truck had only not made the commute to work 2 out of the last 10 times so what could go wrong. So, we loaded up a cooler of ice, the Arizona Atlas/maps filled the Aux...

Tim - First things first, I have't been on forums in a long time. I think I just got burnt out. If there are still some folks on here from the early days of expo that might remember me, hello! :-) I think the more articulate and beautiful Huber should tell the story, but first a little...

sold!
