@sofj45 what are your plans for MD / VA? If you need a place to stop or a place to do any quick repairs just let me know, The Southern Maryland property and Cruiser cottage are open to you if you need it

We are going to be at my sister in laws in va for acouple days but that would be fantastic I need to replace a rear u joint have them with me just got done re greasing but the rear is pretty s***ty. These have about 6K miles on them and are absolutely garbage. Don’t buy cheap parts. Good thing is pretty simple fix. Maybe I’ll do it before gettin that far but thank you for the offer we will see where we end up. I have to be in dc on the 26th then will be leaving there probably around the 1st and no where to be after that. Have to be in Alaska mid July.

That stinks you haven’t seen many Cruisers, we have a random thread for rigs we see around Austin. Took my FJ40 out to Hidden Falls off-road park recently, all the Heep & side-by-side guys were taking pictures of it and mumbling they can’t believe anyone would wheel such an expensive truck You gotta hit TLC/Club events now days to see them used …

Totally dig the 250k cruisers and the $500 rigs.

Speaking of $500 rigs:

BTW, I believe you passed through here on your way through northern New Mexico.

Sounds roadworthy enough, a couple years ago when we drove my 63 fj40 up to Alaska the guy at Canada border asked if this thing was roadworthy.

When we drove into Canada from Skagway several years ago, the border guy saw from my drivers license that my wife and I were from New Mexico. He told us we were lucky - we had Breaking Bad. To which I replied "Yeah, but you have Trailer Park Boys". That got an unexpected big laugh out of him.

All set up for the night. Few hour drive to the outer banks tomorrow and spend a day exploring and relaxing all at the same time.
