I guess I’m the new guy here, I’m Dave Lay from Russellville AR. I have a couple rigs, well 3 actually I guess, my long distance hauler is my 2001 100 series cruiser, kinda built with 250k miles so it’s just getting broken in. I do my trips west in it, and some easier local stuff , it’s just hard to beat it’s comfort , capability and reliability .
then I have a 1996 jeep XJ it’s on 35,s locked and geared and modded for the tougher stuff around here. And then there’s my 2002 Toyota Tundra, It’s my daily driver and it’s pretty stock except a camper shell I can sleep in on the trips where I’m able to take it. Over the years, I’ve had several Broncos, jeeps , and misc 4wd trucks but at heart I’m a toyota guy, mainly landcruisers, I’ve had several 40’s a 60 series and my current 100
I suppose I’d be considered experienced, Ive been doing this car camping stuff for 35 years or so, and I have a terrible wanderlust problem. I usually get out exploring at least some every week and do several local multiple day trips a year with at least one long west trip a year if I can afford it. I’ve been in 4 wd vehicles all my life, from exploring back country to extreme rock crawling. I regained my senses and left the rock crawling world about 10 years ago. My passion now is exploring my home state and running out to Utah or Colorado or other western states when I can and hopefully as remote as possible and for 2-3 weeks at a time . I’d love to meet up with folks that share similar interests , it’s hard to get some of my buddies out much any more..
