Thank you for an epic week. Now, which one of you put this on my spare tire carrier? I’m really mad that I didn’t think of it first. Well done.

This month’s Toyota Trails honors an icon…

The Eagle has landed... :grinpimp:

Picked up my kids from the camp in Estes. My oldest got a little time driving the 74. I’m shuttling kids to Boulder and then heading to Ouray.

Done sewing in the parking lot. Will it hold? Stay tuned.

Off work and all my rowdy friends are rolling in to Chet Sheep! @DangerNoodle @Beardzilla82 @sogncab

Off @ 5am, made it from the Eastern Sierra to Salina, Ut. Dinner @ Mom’s Cafe. Highly recommended.🍽️👍. See everyone tomorrow.🍺🏕️🍺

Parking lot sewing time: not a bad view looking at Long‘s Peak up here in Estes Park.

Cool. You have some time if you run into a snag.

Stopped in Canyon for the night.

I’m in the Greeley Walmart now. I’ll explore. Two humorous things: when I was redoing my 80 steering wheel, I bought something like 19,000 feet of braided line that turned out to be way too thin for the steering wheel unfortunately, now that’s...

Real time help needed. I drove through some awful wind and rain and the soft top ripped all the way up the right. Anyone have the great ideas forreadily available heavy duty thread… I need sailcloth thread. Maybe some heavy duty sewing needles...

Clear Prop!

Thank you. I think I am all good now.

Update: I just got everything sorted out. Turns out it was not #6 but instead #2 hidden directly behind 6. I could not see it until it really started squirting. Funny how no matter how tight you crank on #6 the leak does not slow down when it...

Spent part of my first day as approaching being an officially-retired dude, mounting my Outer Limit Supply/Cruise Moab first aid kit in the 74. I've had that in my boat since I got it. I acquired an additional vehicle-side bracket so now it is...

Loaded and rolling out in the morning!
