Used car prices are so crazy, I sold my Supra for $6,500 more than I paid for it over a year ago (with a repair on the Carfax) and picked ip a new Pro-4X. Not a particularly good photo, but you get the idea. I’m in the field a bit as a biologist, so it won’t be and Uber-off road build, but I’ll...

Hello all, I’ve left Jeep and have thankfully come home to Toyota (I’ve owned a pre-taco 4x4 PU, Tundra, and two 4Runners). My plans are for light, but frequent off-road (trails, FS roads) and some light overlanding as I’m a biologist that gets to go into the field now and then. The realities...

Hello All, I recently picked up a new 08 4Runner V8 with XREAS. Much to my amazement, my wife (with no prompting from me) said she'd like the truck to sit higher (which I wanted to do anyway). So, with her blessing, I want to strike soon before she decides she spends the money on the house...

Not to be too vague, but any special considerations? Light to moderate off-road use (mostly for nature photography and family outings). Could do 4.0 or 4.7L (seems deals are best on 08 4.7s). I'm not sure how different the actual mileage is between the two motors. I'm not even sure which...

Not that I need another, but does this seem like a particularly good deal, an Xterra OR new for $22K...

Hello All, Being a biologist, I know almost nothing useful in real life (which is why I read your postings). Included in my lack of practical knowledge are car stereos. I have an 08 Xterra that included the technology package. The stereo sounds great, but I'd like a few more features built...

I'm looking for a laptop mount to go in my Xterra (08). I'm thinking of going with a Ram Mount. Anyone have good or bad experiences? Other models I consider. Thanks much.

I'm in need of storage on the roof rack of my 08 Xterra OR. I don't plan to put anything particularly heavy on it (just the bulky stuff). My intent is to free-up internal space for framed insects that we import from Peru (via Miami)....I know this part sounds odd, but stay with me. I'm...

One of the things that has, from time to time, made me check my desire to get more than what I need in favor of true utility are the rigs that I have seen in my travels. The image attached is not offered as the butt of a joke but is, rather, offered as my appreciation of people with the same...

Do any of you use a shooting platform (photos not critters) on your rigs? I saw one the other day and it looked useful (unable to ask the owner about it however). My one concern would be making something stable enough for an 800mm lens. If you have examples or thoughts, please advise. Thanks...
