Great MPG, cheap gas ($2.xx instead of my local $5.xx) - felt like being back in a third world country...roads and petrol prices alike.
All 3 rows used 6 people....fully loaded....
No issues... truck did great.
Left home with 3 Head gaskets. Returned home with same.
Brave man for only packing 3....Did you just tear the foam to get to the pcv valve? Or were you able to get to it without foam modification?
Awesome pics from the trip btw.

Thank you kindly!
well i took 3 HG to change every 500 miles
foam top and bottom separated
added new ones
Finally got to review your build! Great truck and build journal man. Love that you use it properly too.
How do you like the Bilsteins? Did you replace any other complements during the shock replacement? Where did you buy them from? Would love to get your thoughts on the bilsteins on road manners. How much did you spend on the job (parts+labor) if you don’t mind me asking.
I wanna get rid of my roof rack after looking at yours.
Btw, biggest improvement that I’ve felt for my car immediately was after a throttle body cleanup, super DIY and big gains in throttle response. Thought I’d share that since you have a high mileage rig too.

Thanks buddy
I love my bilsteins. I have take rides in dobinson, ome, and they didnt do it for me. My 100 has dobinson I hate it
for the offroading I do, long trips, the bilsteins are exactly what I was looking for. Controlled, not harsh or bouncy. Great with full 6 people or hard washboard roads
I bought mine from shock warehouse. Did not replace any other things at the time
I have over 25k miles on them
i dont have the receipts - but I think around $1100
ya love the lack of roof rack. glad I could inspire you to dump yours
thanks - I will check the TSB cleanup - let me know how

Requirements for us poor 200 owner were:
1) Halogen lights
2) 18 inch wheels
3) No tint
4) 6 speed trans
5) OG HG - where you at CCN?
However one of the guys got his tax refund early and decided to get tint and we did scold him quite a bit
