    Cancelled PCE Trail Ride to Pinelands Brewing Co.

    For you "FNG's" please make sure you have your own recovery gear. (Hooks, tow points, rated straps) at a minimum. I'm sure nobody will have an issue assisting in a recovery but when it's sloppy it's proper etiquette to dirty your own gear..

    Led lights suck

    It depends on the manufacturer I'm sure. I see no value in them over my stock headlights. I've got plenty of AUX lighting if I need it anyway which is high quality LED stuff which shouldn't fail.

    Tacoma in cab power

    Get the ARB plug and harness. Run it from the battery through the firewall. You'll have constant power and should only take an hour max for the entire run and mounting.

    Beach Taco - 2013 Tacoma Double Cab (Mostly) fully built.

    It did its job with the suna. I'd say for rain it's useless. I have the 23zero peregrine 180 award ring which is amazing in the rain. What type of roof rack are you mounting it to?

    Installing fixed solar panel

    I decided on the trans hump too. I took my driver seat out and found a grommet under the seat and ran wire alone the frame. Like you, my grommet in the engine bay is stuffed. The grommet under the seat allows a ton of wires.

    fast, free water source

    You'd be better off w/ a lifestraw or something. I don't understand the whole, just find a cemetery thing. You'd be more likely to find a river or stream.

    Off Road Toolbox Idea

    That's cool in a wrangler where you are space limited. I have an adventure tool company shop roll and some of their pouches I use for spare electrical parts, etc. Everything goes in frontrunner wolfpack boxes in the bed. If I was to have a drawer system I'd rather put cooking stuff in there.

    Installing fixed solar panel

    I have two portable panels as well. The fixed panel is really just for trickle charge and situations where I don't want to put the portables out.

    Installing fixed solar panel

    I have to experiment. Maybe I can run it behind the back seats.

    Installing fixed solar panel

    Well I had to get it separately but I do have it. I have a tacoma so I figure it makes the most sense to mount the controller and panel readout in the bed somewhere and run the other wire to the battery under the hood.

    Installing fixed solar panel

    I've got a Zamp Obsidian 100W kit. Has anyone installed something similar? I want to make sure I'm heading in the right direction before I get started..

    Now I'm all messed up..

    Yes, but as they say. Take the 8 people out of the suburban and put them into the tacoma.

    I've got a benchmade which is my daily go to. A swiss army I've had for almost 30 yrs. And a spyderco police knife. However, this one is the most awesome. 3dK from Alaska @Lifestyle Overland edition.

    Air Down?

    Depends on the terrain. Your question is too vague. Soft sand would be 15-18 psi. Washboard road, maybe 22 psi. etc. It also depends on the weight of the vehicle at the time. You can go down as low as 8 safely but you are in bead popping territory there. They won't answer you because they...
