    Sweet! I can bring my honey badger. Which coincidentally can deal with cobras.

    Living dangerously when you put @aaronrules in charge of important stuff.

    Finally a new 4R

    Then there's me: wait until it's been out a few years, they've worked the bugs out, then wait another 10 years to get a used one.

    Finally a new 4R

    I engaged the system on my '05 4R with stock Michelin Defender tires on a dirt road descent. It was making all kinds of crazy noises and not doing a great job of controlling speed either. I'll just put it in 4LO and put the transmission in 1st gear to control downhill speeds.

    Unofficial Cruise Moab April 18-21

    You've gone soft old man. You don't have a tent, sleeping bag and Coleman camping stove? Full disclosure, I don't even go camping without a trailer anymore.

    Unofficial Cruise Moab April 18-21

    Yeah, she's crazy. I have 2 Land Cruisers and 3 4Runners. The one LC that doesn't run is stored at my dad's house. Out of sight, out of mind. The rest all run and are registered. The Insurance company loves me. My wife hasn't tried to convince me we have too many. And right now one of the...

    Finally a new 4R

    Since Jon already said it, yes, you are old. Even I'm getting close to that label. I really like that my '02 and '10 4Rs have a t-case lever. The '10 is a Trails Edition so it has all the KDSS, Crawl Control, HDC, rear locker, and so on. I hate the way crawl control and hill descent control...

    So cute and ugly at the same time.

    Finally a new 4R

    In case you've been living under a rock or never read anything on the internet related to cars, Toyota finally released details of the new 4Runner. I've been wondering where it would slot into the lineup with the new US Land Cruiser that's based on the same platform as the GX/Prado and sort of...

    What did you work on tonight?

    If an unmarried retired guy can't get his projects completed, what hope do I have?

    Bernalillo County Emissions

    It used to be if you took it the county station downtown for your free retest and you failed again after showing that you had spent some money to try to fix it, they would give you 1 year to get it fixed completely. I wasn't sure if you knew about this or if it's even still a rule.

    Being a pirate is overrated

    I sent in my online request to be seen at Mayo earlier this week but haven't heard back yet.

    Maybe that needs a new thread.

    A pack of smokes costs almost as much as a good bottle of whiskey these days. My parents smoked like chimneys. I'm glad I never picked up the habit or I'd be broke. My 70 year old dad on SS is now rolling his own with pouches of tobacco and pre-made cig tubes. in the 90's they smoked Bucks...

    Events/Trails Cruisers on the Rockies: Silverton July 24-28 2024 --EARLY REGISTRATION OPENS APRIL 24

    I got the CB for trail coms with my local club close to 20 years ago. It was fine for small groups close together. But then when I started going to larger gatherings, the HAM advantage became clear. But it's a big hurdle for folks new to the sport. I never went all in with a mobile base...

    Dang it. Now I have to buy a third radio to go with my CB and HAM.

    Toyota Quoting Only 23 MPG on 250 Series

    If I'm used to getting 18-19 in my old vehicle and the new one that is a similar size and weight is getting 23-25, that's a 25% improvement. That's pretty good, especially if there is an increase in power/torque too. I went from an '87 FJ60 to a '99 UZJ100 and got a significant bump in power...

    American Toyota discontinued the IH8MUD discount but giving everyone a different discount !

    Moving to the East Mountains and working on base has made AmToy very inconvenient. I only go to Sandia Toyota for small parts I need right away that are likely in stock. For anything costly, I just order from the internet now.
