We are lucky here in Bozeman getting to see way more than our fair share of international-quality camp rigs traveling to and from America's treasures.

Do folks like non-Toyota "spotted" posts too? I was bike touring up in the Little Belts over the weekend and I saw this custom Mog off in the distance. I didn't see anyone milling around outside of it so I didn't ride over for a closer look so the photos are from somewhat far away.

Are you interested in a handheld or something permanently mounted in your rig? I'm a ham guy so in my truck I have a Yaesu 2m wired in but my family has a GMRS license and we carry 5w GMRS/FRS radioshave for hiking, skiing, at campgrounds, etc. I use a Radioddity GS-5B and my other family...

Someone chose the best rig to drive to Sweet Pea.

Dang, 200A? That's a hog. What kind of equipment are you trying to start?

New thermostat, water outlet gasket, temp send unit, cold start injector timer, housing bolts, and bypass hose. I figure if I've got the damn thing apart I should try to replace as much of the old bits as possible, right? I flushed it twice last week and everything was coming out very clean...

I always get a kick out of the old Toyotas that Bridger Bowl has cruising around the parking lots. Especially this one with the flatbed.

Thanks for that detail and nuance, @90WT.

Put a new block heater in today after the original failed earlier this winter. Hopefully find time to fill it with coolant tomorrow and get 'er out for a drive. I'm planning to just use generic coolant from the auto parts store unless people recommend something specific. What was in there...

If anyone else stumbles on this thread down the road I found an OEM option at Cruiser Parts: https://shop.cruiserparts.net/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=61344
