    Thanks man. Happy to help.

    OE Long Travel 200

    Nah. Half out of laziness, half that I'm trying to get Dan (Mr RTI) Edmunds up here to do it impartially. Still extremely happy with the setup, have yet to drive a better vehicle. One possible avenue for you might be just to have Dark Horse Customs here in Bozeman do everything for you. We...

    Talk me out of a 4Runner TRD Pro

    I'm really on the fence. My current 4Runner is faster, more efficient, has better dimensions Offroad, and has the same payload as the 5th gen. But man, the ability to see out of its windows just feels way too safe sometimes.

    Talk me out of a 4Runner TRD Pro

    Don't forget the GX has full time and kdss too.

    Talk me out of a 4Runner TRD Pro

    Others have made these points, but let me be a bit less diplomatic: it is insulting to us Toyota enthusiasts that Toyota sells the 5th gen T4R. It is something vastly beyond insulting that they charge $50k for them. These are first cars for 16 year old girls, not serious trucks for enthusiasts...

    Roof Top Tents-My pet peeve

    I loaned the truck to GFC for that photoshoot. We don't actually run a tent on it. I'm of the admittedly controversial opinion that RTTs really don't make sense on an SUV. You're just making too many sacrifices in order to carry a small shelter that's incredibly exposed to the elements in the...

    Skinny spare under LRA 12.5 aux tank

    The spare is not the limiting factor here. Not even close.

    Skinny spare under LRA 12.5 aux tank

    I hang a 275/70-18 Toyo ATIII LT under the 12.5ga tank on ours, and don't notice any difference in clearance. If you're really dragging the truck's ass that much, change to a heavier rear spring. The idea of trying to safely get off a trail, or along miles and miles of highway until you can...

    Towing with a 200-series Toyota Land Cruiser

    Leave it at that factory 20mm setting if you have a bumper and winch.

    " Raptor-Like" Ride Quality On & Off Road

    Just copy my build exactly. It's basically a 200-series Raptor: https://forum.ih8mud.com/threads/oe-long-travel-200.1216258/ It's as confidence inspiring on-road as the stock Cruiser, and handles dirt just like the fast Ford.

    Post bankruptcy, the sites were all acquired by a remarkably incompetent VC firm that has since lost all the talent, spoiled the user experience, and destroyed all revenue. It's sad. https://www.theatlantic.com/business/archive/2018/02/hogan-thiel-gawker-trial/554132/

    OE Long Travel 200

    The basic story is I started my career at a car/fashion magazine in London, moved to NYC to launch American edition. Was #2 at Jalopnik when we grew that into a real thing. It kinda sucks now, but that's Hulk Hogan's fault. Used that experience and income to launch a little motorcycle website...

    OE Long Travel 200

    I should note that AssRubber was created with the specific purpose of plagiarizing my work. Please do not mention my name and that dumpster fire in the same sentence. Otherwise, yes. I don't have a bike right now (that industry was so toxic it just kinda ruined them for me, see above), but I...

    OE Long Travel 200

    Video walk around of the build, showing some new features like the sliders, and the brand new ARB mid-height roller drawer system, plus some sexy driving shots. I totally forgot to lock the center diff for that hill climb shot. https://www.outsideonline.com/2422169/ultimate-suv
