Current Vehicle: 2018 Toyota Tacoma Off-Road - Quicksand
Previous Vehicle: (Now wife's) 2015 Land Rover LR4
Overland Experience: Novice
Why Overlanding? My wife and I are becoming empty nesters next month. We have thru-hiked the John Muir Trail and plan to thru-hike the Pacific Crest Trail in 2020. We are selling everything and want a rig to continue exploring our love for the outdoors when we get off the trail. We have some time to setup the rig and get some experience.
Our Taco is being equipped this month through
Saints Offroad in Glendora, CA (they are awesome btw). We are installing
CBI Rock Sliders with kickout, Cali Raised Ditch lights,
Leitner Designs Active Cargo System with storage pods, MaxTrax and mounts, RotoPax and mounts, Hi-Lift Jack and mount, a
FSR High Country RTT, King Suspension, and Deaver Leaf Springs. I have 5
Stealth Customs Ray 10s in Matte Bronze on order to be paired with 5
BF Goodrich KM3 (285\70\17). We are scouting a Prinsu Rack, ARB Twin Compressor, and a stove and fridge. I am also looking for a front bumper and winch (likely CBI). I will wait until I hit my rear bumper one too many times to upgrade it :).
