Wife and I took the LX470 to Jefferson State Cruisers annual McGrew Trail Ride in southern Oregon.

There is a ton of places out here to explore! We have quite a few OHV areas for trails and never ending logging roads. Check out Oregon Back Country Discovery Routes, too. I loved living in Bend and would move there again if the stars aligned but the Portland Metro area isn't too bad. In two...

You have the ability to raise and lower the suspension, as well as have 4 different stiffness settings. Daily driving, with the height in neutral, you can make it soft enough that you don't feel railroad tracks. But I can stiffen it to give me more stability when I tow, or raise it when I'm in...

I guess I'll play. The 40 and I in Tillamook State Forest (Oregon) on the 4th of July:

My advice: Get the best maintained LX470 or LC with AHC you can find and mount some 285's on it. Put a RTT on the stock roof rack and go enjoy it. It will do everything you want and be gentle on your back.

Will do!

I ordered parts: My clutch slave cyl is leaking on the FJ40. After doing some research, I learned that it would be smart to replace the slave and the master cyls at the same time. I also learned that next to OEM or AISIN, Beck Arnley is the brand to buy. The original Toyota part numbers for...

I like it a lot! I would love to see it in person sometime. I want to steal some of your ideas on it for sure.

I finally connected my FT2800 to my laptop and programmed it. What a pain in the butt!

Good to know, Kurt! I haven't seen a FST 40 with ambulance doors but I don't doubt you one bit. As for the winch, I think you will be pleased. I've spent some time with a couple of them here locally (probably the same person you were talking to) and I have been impressed. That's saying a lot...

As far as I know, all factor soft top 40's had a drop down tailgate...

You also need to factor in IF more $$ would give you more opportunity to expo... That would depend on the time off you could get, I suppose. Just wanted to throw another aspect into it. For a year I got to live (in my opinion) the coolest place on earth as far as outdoor recreation. However...

Congrats! Thank you for sharing this new chapter of your life with us. Fatherhood is amazing and it's even better when you are away from civilization. I'm glad to see the 80 will stay and I look forward to seeing the evolution.

I guess that is one way to look at it... Good luck with the rebuild.

Sounds like a waist of money to me, but it's your money! You would be better off financially to sell it as is and build another one.

If it's still driving fine, you lucked out. It sounds like the tires where able to scrub and not cause damage. If something broke, she would have heard it!

You guys to realize I was kidding, right? Personally, I think it looks great. But then again, almost all 40's look better than mine... My ol 40 does get used pretty hard, though:

Wow, you guys are harsh! Remind me not to post a pic of my 40 on here... LOL

I wouldn't give up on Ironman yet... I just got this press release emailed to me:
