    I'm one of just a couple Pajero owners on this forum, and in a country with about 10 total members, of which I seem to be the most active, so I can sympathise with the point you're trying to make with your frustration. However, as inclusive as we like to be, people enjoy their cliques and will...

    Tires - Road Comfort vs Trail Performance

    I go down to 18psi and have been reluctant to go any lower (fear of the unknown). They seem to perform really well at 18psi, but just looking at the tires on the ground, you wouldn't easily tell they aren't still at 36psi. I've got a river trip coming up in February - the river beds here are...

    Centralized SOS number?

    Actually, OP asked how to make a post on this forum, visible to other members. Not how to contact "professionals". I think the point Flipper was attempting to make is, if you are in a true emergency situation, you need EMT/Police/etc. response, not a bunch of well-meaning but potentially...

    Need Help - Protecting Alternator/Car Battery From mud/water

    Water ingress will kill an alternator deader than fried chicken. There are sealed (water proof) aftermarket alternators you can buy, but I imagine these aren't cheap. I also seem to recall alternator relocation kits (essentially raising it up in the engine bay and changing the routing of...

    Ah, ok. I was afraid it might be something like that. Really awesome idea. Thanks for replying.

    Patches

    Sorry to resurrect a nearly year-old thread, but those Mountains and Trails incoming call patches are awesome. Where did you get those? I tried Google'ing but came up empty.

    Getting started

    Hey guys, I need to start a fire but all I have is this blow torch. :tongueclosed: You're off to about as good as start as possible. As others have suggested, just get out into it and see where you come up short.

    Tires - Road Comfort vs Trail Performance

    Old thread is old, but I would still like to opine: I daily drive my overlander,. However, fortunately, my daily commute is an urban 11 miles round trip. and the speed limit never exceeds 40mph. Considering this, I wanted to go with a MT tire to offer the most capability off-road, knowing I...

    Are you a day tripper, Weekender, Weeker, Full Timer?

    Day-tripper, but a long weekend trip is planned for mid-February. Excited for that one.

    Rig compliments in the urban jungle.

    I've gotten a few, "It's too shiny!" passive-aggressive compliments at gas stations. It's not that shiny, really - pinstriped up pretty good actually. I just keep it clean.

    Thinking outloud, please interject.

    To me, this is a huge point. This puts you way ahead of the curve. I totally get the whole "grass is greener" thing, and wanting the most-capable vehicle; I suffer from it too. But, the Montero Sport is a decent platform, despite the shortcoming of options available in the aftermarket. Everyone...

    Confusion, looking for another rig, need advise.

    A Montero as a more-efficient option? I knew Tacomas weren't exactly fuel-sippers but, geez. :grinning:
