I've been looking for a good 4th Gen 4Runner or GX470 for a while now. Have looked at a few local ones, just missed out on a nice 2006 4Runner Sport (single owner low miles). An 06 GX470 is arriving soon at a local car lot so will take a look at that. I test drove a 10 year old GX and a V6...

Sold locally in 2 days. Someone's getting a very nice expedition rig for North-America! Well, that's probably it for me and expedition vehicles. Time to put my feet up and read about adventures instead.... :ylsmoke: Cheers! Due to health reasons preventing me from doing the long-distance road...

Hi all, I've decided to stick with the stock tire size on my 96 2500 4x4 auto CTD (245-75-16). That means I can keep the stock wheels and only buy 4 tires (2 of my existing tires can serve well as spares), which makes the cost more reasonable. My truck has an Alaskan camper loaded on the back...

Hi all. I'm trying to make a wise tech investment and believe I can get some good advice from members here. I'm a bit of a luddite so most of my stuff is quite outdated. I'm paying a visit to a friend in Tokyo in a few months, and am looking at around 15 hours total flight time, each way...

Hi all, My Alaskan re-caulking project is a bit on hold, http://www.expeditionportal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=49900 due to: (1) garage getting a little too cold to comfortably work in (cold caulking and cold hands!) (2) suitable pickup truck became available locally, which I ended up buying...

Hi all, A local older couple have a Sportsmobile for sale (first time I've set eyes on one). Have only seen the outside. Regular body (17.5 feet), 2001, Ford E350 with 5.4L Triton V8, 61,000 miles. Asking $20,000. Does that represent a good value?

Hi all, I'm casually looking for a suitable Dodge Cummins to carry my recently acquired 10foot Alaskan camper (non-cabover model) and came across this one locally. 97, 2WD, automatic, with Firestone 5,000 pound air bags, bilstein shocks all around, 4:10 diff, has been used for slide-in camper...

This would probably make a great expedition trailer! (No connection whatsoever with the seller, I just happened to see it while browsing). http://medicinehat.kijiji.ca/c-cars-vehicles-RVs-campers-trailers-travel-trailers-campers-ALASKAN-CAMPER-Model-10-110-Service-220-W0QQAdIdZ224920486

Hi again. As I indicated in my Alaskan purchase post, I'd like to re-seal and re-caulk my Alaskan while in the garage this Fall. Attached is a picture of mine with arrows to show the places I figure should be re-caulked with new sealant, and would appreciate confirmation from you that these are...

Hi all, Someone local is selling a 10foot non-cabover Alaskan camper. Ad says it's in good shape, stored indoors. Built in mid-70's. 2 owners. Will see it later this week. I've reached the conclusion over the last few months that my next camping/travel vehicle will be a truck camper, and...

What do you think about such a small slide-in camper over a small reliable and fuel-economy japanese truck (Toyota, Mazda) as a solution for solo or two-person road-based treks in N-A? I have an interest to try out a truck-camper, and don't want to get into the large truck-campers, and thought...

Hi all, As you can see from my sig I've owned and sold a number of 4x4's and other truck/camper vehicles over the years. I currently own a rather rare (on these shores anyway) 80 series diesel Land Cruiser, which is fairly comfortable and rugged, has a 5 speed and no AC. I could get a good...

(Cross-Posted from Land-Cruiser forum here): http://expeditionportal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=41842 Would appreciate your thoughts, thanks!

Hi all, I'm confronting yet another vehicle choice situation and thought I'd solicit some views from people here. I own a rather rare 80 Series diesel (1HZ, barn doors, "poverty pack" LHD) I picked up locally a couple of years ago. It has served me well, especially hauling stuff back and forth...

Hi folks, Have a look at what I chanced upon last week, for sale locally by someone who had brought the vehicle back from the UK (it's LHD though!). 1992 HZJ80 with the smooth, reliable 1HZ non-turbo 6 cylinder diesel engine, and 5 speed manual transmission. Very stock, and what is referred to...

In case some of you are thinking of an Earthroamer, this information may be useful to you (I received it via a mass emailing from them - I have no affiliation with Earthroamer whatsoever!): Over the last few years several EarthRoamer customers have benefited from Section 179 of the Internal...

Took a while, but I finally managed to buy that 60 series Diesel Cruiser I've had my eye on for a while. 1982, very stock and simple mechanicals (non-power-assist steering and clutch, 4 speed manual, 3B 4 cylinder diesel engine), only 230,000 kms, strong frame and body, very clean interior...

Someone is selling a tent specially made for an SUV (in this case, a 60 series Land Cruiser). It fits over the top part of the truck, attaching to the door handles and windshield wipers, providing privacy and shade inside, with convenient ventilation holes adjacent to windows. The rear part is...
