Can I get an address for this shindig? Didn’t see it in the thread.

Really want to make this but some last minute issues will probably keep me from getting to Amarillo on time! I'm writing this from Odessa, but my 80 is in Houston being worked on and I am hoping to be able to get it Friday midday. If anything changes I will head that way but if not I'll look...

We've been camping just below the summit on the RG for a few years now. We regularly leave campsite and at least one vehicle unattended overnight and/or all day at least - never had a problem. As others have mentioned, I think thieves prefer much easier trailheads, but the damned thing about...

Is there a trail closure list anywhere? Just heard from a buddy in the area with the following: “Stony Pass is now open!! Primitive camping spot at base of Poughkeepsie gulch (Poughkeepsie is closed but Mineral Creek to base is open) would be a great alternative if Ouray amphitheater doesn’t...

I’m new to the off-roading world and have lots of stupid questions and even more bad ideas. Would a trailer make sense? I saw a smallish two wheel military grade trailer on here somewhere. I thought that if I could offload stuff that wasn’t absolutely needed on the trail - it’d be worthwhile...

In a previous life I did a lot of racing. Land Speed, Drag Racing, SCCA etc. If the car was running well I inevitably screwed with it about a week out from a race, leading to immeasurable anxiety, stress etc. I’m happy to announce that I’m older and slower but apparently no more intelligent 🤡...

Same, call me old fashioned…..

I have a camping spot for 2 nights at Ampitheater that I won’t be using 7/31-8/2. Shoot me a msg if interested.

Anyone ever seen this? Any idea what the purpose or thought behind it would be?

She got washed yesterday for the first time in a year. Went to the beach last weekend and had to unsand….

My son and I happened on this event/crew by accident last year after spending a few days back Country camping and fishing up on Stony. Ended up in first spot on left coming into Ouray KOA in our green FJ80 that I purchased sight unseen on FB Marketplace two weeks prior. 😅 We tagged along across...

I appreciate all the feedback, and this forum in general. First Land Cruiser, and first 4 x 4 that will be used for actual off-road use. Cheers 🍻

Currently just standard OE with the addition of a WARN 103251 VR EVO 8-S Electric 12V DC winch. However, like everyone else I’m sure I’ll be adding multiple items as I go.

Tons of info on battery choices in here but I’m hoping someone can give me a definitive answer. Just did a dual battery setup and I have OEM alternator which I believe is 80 or 90a. Does this alternator have enough to adequately keep both batteries charged or do I need to go to a bigger...
