Racked up about 300 miles on dusty forest service roads driving between turtle trap sites this week, occasionally stopping to catch snakes, and working with the trapped turtles. The 80 is proving to be a good field vehicle for this type work

Celebrated my wife’s birthday with ~350 miles on dirt in southern Utah, from near Price through the San Rafael Swell, Goblin Valley (!), Little Wild Horse Canyon and Middle Wild Horse Mesa Wilderness (!!), through Muddy Creek, on down Caineville Reef and out to the most amazing slickrock nirvana campsite.

Then we went the back way to Capitol Reef’s Cathedral Valley (!!!), on out to Loa then back south and east into Capitol Reef, Notom-Bullfrog road, up the Burr Trail switchbacks and into Boulder Town. Birthday dinner at Hells Backbone Grill (maybe our favorite restaurant in the country?) last night and tonight, and back on home to Montana tomorrow.

No matter how many times I return to Utah, I’m amazed at the access and all the spots I’ve never seen before. And, it seems like the liquor laws are… relaxing a skosh? 😎

Added an anxiety inducer.
I did the same thing yesterday with the ZF TOYOBD1 tool (93-94 scan gauge style option), but call mine an anxiety reducer since I can now see true temps and it has an overheat alarm...my biggest fear on mine for some reason (oh yeah, maybe that's due to all of the head gasket threads on here!). :oops:

No, these are jdm oem headlights. There is a housing inside the fog light housing. Looks like this

Ahh ok. It looked so much brighter the the normal jdm lights. So cool

Edit just realized that’s cause they are on in the pic. Sweet!
 
Finished paint the 80, putting everything back on, and a test drive to the gas station.
