    Pandemic Purchases....aka "Retail Therapy"

    You made me go back and look because I had a photo of my in front of a 172 :) This one is a Maule MX-7. Fun plane to fly! I hope you're able to make your dream a reality again one day soon.

    Pandemic Purchases....aka "Retail Therapy"

    Bought a Dobinsons 2.5/1.5 suspension for my 4Runner this weekend. Oh, and a winch bumper from Victory 4x4. That'll keep me busy for a while (once they arrive). Another one of those "sneak up on it" purchases.

    Where did you install your OB emblem?

    I’d thought about it, or better yet black trim paint, but I don’t think the laser-etched member ID has enough depth to it that any coating wouldn’t cover up and make unreadable.

    New 2019 4Runner TRD Off Road Premium

    Hi everyone, Just bought a new 4Runner on Friday night. Still stock (of course) but pondering my next moves. Should be great fun! When I saw photos of the stock tires, I thought, “Great, street tires.” But they’re actually fairly impressive for an OEM M+S tire. Not at all what I thought...

    Equipment Maintenance in the Rust Belt

    It seems like everything one would attach to a vehicle is a place to collect salt — and therefore rust. One thing that comes to mind for the more hardcore overlanders and 4WDers is bash/skid plates, especially the really large full-coverage plates. For those who have them, do you find that you...

    Let's see those full size rigs - Trucks & SUV

    That's a lot like how I envision my Ram. Nicely done!

    Preordered my Rivian R1T this weekend

    Yeah, I'm still on the fence. I might just buy two 4-Runners instead :)

    Rivian R1T at Expo West Q & A

    I went for the truck. I do dig the SUV, though. From what I've read and reviewed, you can't get the 400-mile range out of the SUV, though, since there's not enough room for the additional batteries.

    Preordered my Rivian R1T this weekend

    At least put down my $1000. I’m thoroughly intrigued by this critter. Price list and options aren’t out yet, so that’ll likely be the determining factor. $69K to start, and probably close to $90K to get somewhere (range options). That’s tough to swallow. But then again, any new truck with any...

    I’m excited for it. I put in my preorder for one this week. We’ll see how it goes.

    Trash is trash is trash...right?

    It’s a fine line, isn’t it?
