Nice first gen @Taco Bessy

Bought another first gen. This time a 2003, 4WD 5-Speed with way less miles.

Oh man, I bought two vehicles within the last year, and I haven't updated this... So here we go: My 2017 Suzuki DR-Z400SS: I've got some Wolfman soft bags for it, and a set of dirt wheels. Currently building out a smarter tool kit, and lightening the bike of unnecessary weight. I can load it...

March would be good for me. Let’s try not to get bombed though.

Been eyeballing these. I like the looks of the extended with the long bed. Gotta read up more on the Duramax 2.8l.

I’ll check it out. Thank you for the link!

TL;DR - my ‘02 Tacoma’s head gasket is going south, and I need some recommendations in SoCal. My taco’s HG is on its way out, like many other 1st gen 3.4Ls before it, around the 210k mile mark. Symptoms: Rough starts after it sits a while, very reduced MPG, losing coolant, and sweet, white...

I feel like there's something lost in translation here. $1,800 USD? I know your prices are better than that. 150-200lb? Seems VERY heavy for aluminum and nylon.

There's a steep, rocky straight hill about 150yds that I had to get dragged up, that was fun. Also an 18"+ shelf I needed some help with. Anything else and my locked 2WD was fine. Even surprised myself a few times. Glad you all had fun!

@Kenslittle72 - You still have that route from our jaunt over the hill to Big Bear?

Dang, I've already got plans for that weekend. Wish I was able to get up there with y'all. Have fun. A while back (June 2017) we did a trip over the hill from Apple Valley, thru White Mountain, and onto the North side of the lake. Was a great time, even though Ken Little's dad had to pull me up...

Under this car cover, and all of the secret-keeping soft armor, there is a prototype JK Pickup. Expect seeing these some time next year. Spotted in Studio City, CA - home of the prototype test drivers.

What’s your price?

Bought this recently for a prop, and since I’m not a licensed HAM Operator, I’m offering it up to the OB world at a good discount. Also included: 3’ ABR Industries LMR-240-UF type RG8X (BNC) Check photos for details. $80 - local f2f in Los Angeles area. $90 - shipped USPS in lower 48...

Headed out there this weekend, thanks for the update!
