    Nissan build quality

    Thanks for the input. For Toyota's I have owned an 89 4x4 pick up, a 2003 4runner, a 1995 80 series and a 2003 Corolla which we still have. I know that Toy's also have their issues!

    Holy Grail Truck

    Shoot, were do you find these sweet rigs all the time! My wife would be so jealous of that LC. When you get vehicle ADD again in about a year let me know. Would love that 100 series.:ylsmoke:

    Holy Grail Truck

    I spotted the "Holy Grail" on the local Craigslist here so I'm guessing an " upgrade " has happened! :Wow1: Wish that I had reason to own a dually because that 98 is awesome.

    New RAM half-ton EcoDiesel gets 28mpg?..

    Having owned a 2003 Ram 2500 diesel, I also have learned that repair costs can be quite high. While sitting in the local diesel repair shop I was routinely hearing the service advisor quoting people their bills over the phone. Many where 3 and 4 grand! He told me he owns a Hyundai and would...

    The GX470 is in my "short list" for our next vehicle. Curious what kind of trailer you'll be towing. We have a 20' travel trailer the we will tow occasionally.

    Ambu/camper

    I think this would be a great platform. This one has windows and even seat belts to hold you in bed while on the rough roads! :Wow1: I am really curious though what it is worth. Anyone know what a new one goes for?

    Ambu/camper

    Think that this might make a decent camper project? http://www.rbauction.com/horizon-fiberglass-ambulance-box?invId=3605074&id=ci It's near me...but I'd have to remember this in March!:) And get a truck with an 8 foot box of course. :ylsmoke:

    Expeditions 7: Two Years Around the World on all Seven Continents.

    Probably for video evidence to be used to prove fault. I would assume that there is also a lot of "eating" video evidence as almost half of the at faults were from the film car! What an absolute crazy place to drive!

    F-150 SAS

    :Wow1: I believe I'll continue looking at f250/350's for an expo/tow rig.

    F-150 SAS

    Very cool. Mind my asking roughly what this cost? These trucks can be had for dirt cheap around here and this conversion might make one worth buying:smiley_drive:

    Free pair of Mountain Khakis with a 3-year subscription to Overland Journal

    IPF 900's

    Looks to me like those may be the spot light beam. They have a completely "clear" lens. http://www.offroadtuff.com/900XS.htm
