    Should I buy a 2024 Tacoma TRD Off Road?

    1st production year jitters, Toyota? Nope. Ford and GM? Yes. I would buy a 1st production year Toyota with no regrets, and I have. I have bought a 1st production year GM 4x4 after owning 2 Toyota 4x4s, I learned my lesson. Nothing but Toyota since.

    Is regearing a Dana 35 really a waste of $$$?

    If I'm not mistaken, some aftermarket companies used to offer D35 upgrade kits that might address your concerns. The upgrade kits got rid of the C-clips that seemed to be the main problem.

    Sounds like Stellantis is on the right path.

    For EVs to catch on, I think some type of fossil fuel onboard charging system is what it will take.

    Any first-hand experience with Triple Aught Design (TAD)?

    I have perused their web site the last few weeks, a lot of their stuff that I would consider, is "Sold Out". They seem to be very thin on in stock items.

    What do you use for a truck gun?

    Saw these photos and instantly recognized this 870 for what it is. 870s similar to this one were a part of my office windshield view off and on over 35 years depending on my assignment. I enjoyed seeing these photos.

    Gladiator - Good/Bad?

    From the Jeep Gladiator Forum, there seem to be some electrical issues that occur. There is a 2 battery system tied to the Auto Start/stop that seems to be problematic for some owners. There have been problems with dash electrics also. Rear axle seal failures (common) usually repaired under...

    Great Expośe on the Quality of Camper Trailers and RV’s Today

    I spent a lot of weekends of my youth, tent camping, and travel trailer camping with my family. I have no complaints of trailer camping based on my experience. That being said, the most I would involve myself and my family in RVing would be to rent for a week or so, turn it in and let the myriad...

    What direction did you head when you outgrew your 4runner?

    I moved into a lightly used Land Cruiser from a 4Runner. I am curious as to how the new Sequoia is going to shake out vs the recently departed from the US Land Cruiser.

    TJ as road trip/overlander?

    I have a 99 TJ I bought new and have modified over the years. Not really a long distance vehicle but I have typically driven it from central Kansas to Ouray, New Mexico, and The Black Hills. I do find myself contemplating a 4 door Wrangler or Gladiator simply because of the extra room and being...

    Does a 230 mile/charge range make you more or less likely to buy a Lighning?

    I think EVs will be practical for urban areas, commuters, and fleet delivery vehicles in urban areas. I live in Kansas and it is safe to say roughly 2/3s+ of the state is rural and the economy is Agricultural based. So, I don’t see EVs as really practical for the lifestyle of that 2/3s. A trip...

    Ridiculous descriptions from sellers

    I have always enjoyed a seller’s perception of what constitutes a “Restored” vehicle.

    Sad End to This Cautionary Tale, As Folks Start to Head Back Out Into the Wilds, Pls Be Careful

    If you get one flat tire or two, that to me is a sign to do a 180 and head back from whence you came. As far as driving on flats to get out of the situation, that is a good course of action. In my experience I have seen cars go for miles and miles, on pavement, at fairly high speeds with sparks...

    2022 Land Cruiser 300 series

    There is going to be a 300 Series Land Cruiser, we just won’t see it in the US unless it comes as a Lexus SUV.

    2022 Land Cruiser 300 series

    Based on the last comments of the letter, I suspect the Sequoia will be positioned as an alternative to the Land Cruiser with option packages.

    2022 Land Cruiser 300 series

    On ih8mud in the last couple of days, a copy of a letter to Gulf Coast Toyota Dealers has been shown. The letter says Land Cruiser production will increase to 1000 units per month during November and December and then taper off into March of 2021, at which time, the Land Cruiser will no longer...

    Mt Shavano, Colorado

    I drove up a trail up to Mt. Shavano many years ago. There was an old abandoned cabin somewhere up near the top. I wonder if it still exists? A friend and I went to a lower elevation and camped out at campsite just off the trail for the night. Nice Pictures.
