    Front Recovery Points 4Runner

    Buffalo Bayou Garage sells some fairly economical rated recovery points for 4th and 5th gen 4Runners. I have a set on my GX460 and they’re nice and solid. https://bbg4x4.com/product-category/recovery-gear/

    Overland Hound

    We just had Maggie join the family 3 weeks ago. She’s a Shepherd mix rescue from around Bakersfield, Ca., and an adventure dog in training. Looking forward to taking her out hiking and exploring in 2020.

    Rei has there sale again

    Picked up a Kuat NV 2.0 Base bike rack and a Jet-boil stove earlier this week. The stove is 25% off and I saved around $120 on the rack with their coupon. I’m also eyeing a few of their packs and sleeping bags for a potential backpacking trip in September, but might hold off. It’s tough to...

    That's Not a Knife...This is a Knife.

    Just got it, and first impression is very positive! It’s a great size, nicely finished, and that barrel handle feels good in the hand. Just need to break in the sheath a bit and add the firesteel (which I forgot to order.) Also - I’m not alone in my initial assessment. My 8 year old son has...

    That's Not a Knife...This is a Knife.

    Thanks for recommending the LT Wright’s! I’ve been wanting a reasonably priced and well made fixed blade that’s not overly large or aggressive looking. Ordered a Bush Baby with “natural” handles and it’s due to arrive tomorrow![emoji16][emoji106]

    New LandCruiser 150!!...Umm Lexus 460

    Congrats on the GX! Nice choice on the Ridge Grapplers. Would love to hear your thoughts on them related to road manners and noise. I went with the Terras on my GX and am quite happy, but do love that more aggressive look.

    SXMA Fuel Tank Cans?

    No experience, but they look fairly decent based on the listing. I’d be curious to hear about people’s experiences with them as well. ...Not sure I’d ever use my spare fuel as a recovery board though. [emoji38]
