120k mile service today. Long list of things taken care of but had a surprise where the drive belt and tensioner were shot. Pricey list but we’re set for a trip to Death Valley next week.

FYI the oem ones are manufactured by Dayco. I saved $$ by getting the Dayco part.

Just getting back from 200 miles of 4x4 trails in Death Valley. Great weather and good company. Truck did great overall. Thirsty, but great. We cut a tire on Steel Pass but other than that no issues. We did hit some crazy powder pits that were pretty long and deep. Will post up more pics later this week.

Nice shots, I was just there a few weeks back doing a similar route so know what you’re referring to on the powder pits - I’m still trying to get the dust out of the strangest places looking forward to the rest of your photos and thanks for sharing

On the way to Teakettle Junction we ran through this looong stretch of fluffy doom...

Love your "fluffy doom" label and that big hit you took just as the dust overwhelmed your windscreen had a solid pucker factor - great trip!

Powder pits indeed. Pretty sure that was the final straw that did my LRA breather in.

I just want to take my compressed air blower to your car in those pics.

What did your air filter look like after that? Awesome pictures.

Woah! I haven't seen fluffy doom like that since I was in the Middle East. We called it moon dust, but for some reason, I like fluffy doom a bit more.

Looks like an awesome trip, thanks for sharing!

Is the pouch on the dash part of a dash cover?

Got tired of battling the fridge lid while loading/unloading so I made a little prop to hold it open. View attachment 1441406 View attachment 1441407

I like your solution. I've been using a marine spring to hold the lid up. Very simple install.

Very nice job and congratulations!

if you don't want to make a net, Blue ridge Overland gear makes a "gear attic" . I have in in my LC and it is very handy.

There are nice campsites... and there are great campsites!

No, they’re 5.11 pouches attached with some hook sided Velcro to the dash cover. Been pretty secure and really handy without being in the way. I lined the top with some reflective silver window insulation.
