I just got back from Baja sur, we ended up in Bahia Conception. Beautiful beaches and great kayaking. Mex1 is in much better condition than it was 10 years ago. I went down there w/ a basically stock 06 Tacoma Sport 4x4. I wasn't able to get stuck even driving on the sandy roads that lead...
I'm towing my 40 to Sedona on May 5th, looking to do some local wheeling there (wedding on the 6th). Drop me a line if you like, the more the merrier....

Has anyone flat-towed their fj40 with the new Tacoma? I am interested in using mine to tow to/fro the trails, mechanic, etc. I know they are rated at 6500 max, but is this going to be hard on the Trans, body, engine, etc. I have a manual trans in mine.
Does anyone know the actual warmed-up running temp (F) range for a 2F engine ? I'm running an OEM gauge and it doesn't show the actual temp.
I'd like to retrofit w/ an aftermarket gauge if possible, who stocks these?
You might want to invest in a Mean Green heavy duty starter. They can take more abuse from long cold-starting rev cycles.
You might (possibly) be keeping the ignition key turned after the engine has already started, even for a small amount of time. This would beat up a starter real quick...
Yep, pepboys has it on long coils, you can get any length desired, sold by the foot. I keep a few extra feet in the spares kit incase some goes bad while out and about....:idea:
The owner I purchased from put the apron emblems & mirrors on.
Don't know about the fuel door.
I recently installed a 22 gal. tank, we routed the fill cap in back behind the spare.
