Nice truck. Low mileage too.

That new Colorado has some potential. Really hoping it doesn't suck. . .

I obviously depends on the route. BAM Road, then absolutely a 690 or smaller. Ushuaia, then take a big bike with lots of reserve payload, acceleration and braking performance. Trans-America Trail, take the 690 or the KLR. I like the big bikes, but I am a pretty big guy, so it is all relative...

Welcome! Great choice with the Tacoma

All great comments. I see the perspective on price, but I feel it is worth excluding if "Ultimate" is the criteria. Imagine if we were debating the "Ultimate" sports car. Would value really be a consideration? If the goal is maximizing value, then I agree there would be better choices, the...

I will take them. Where to send the $$$?

Awesome stuff Mario! Keep it coming.

We think it is pretty cool. The super hero of 4WDs? Agree - Disagree? We see the Brute as the Ultimate North American Overland Vehicle. The qualification is of course a 2014 4WD available in the USA, with a warranty, financing, blah, blah. You can buy a Brute from select dealers, and the...

Another update from Mike Serpe

Some of you know Harald Pietschmann of Rubicon and 4WD training fame. He lives outside of La Paz and was hammered by this recent hurricane, his house damaged, etc. Members of the community are working to provide assistance.

They will both work fine. Take your favorite. If you want to venture off the beaten path, take the 4Runner.

such an awesome truck. Best of luck

Thanks Dave. Brian and I bought a pair of TAC21 bolt rifles. His being .308 and mine being .338. Appreciate the compliments on the Discovery. That has been the most difficult lesson - doing LESS to the truck than more. In fact, I have pulled so much stuff off it, that I just bought a lighter...

Sorry I missed a few questions here. Have been traveling a bit. Yes, and the solution was pretty simple. Install a relay between the power cable of the ABS pump and the positive cable. I installed a switch on the left switch column (by the steering wheel). Switch on = ABS on. Switch off = ABS...

Have an awesome time Mario!

Love the tin top. Good work. Proof the vehicle does not need to big or expensive for an incredible adventure!

Congrats on starting the adventure! Latvia is certainly a beautiful country, and one I enjoyed visiting (a few times). thanks for the updates and let us know if we can help or share your adventure further. We would love to say hello in Prescott at our offices if your route can accommodate...

I am working with a Goal Zero Yeti for my trip to Utah this week. It will perform charging duties, etc. and also power the fridge. I will charge it while driving and let the unit power everything at night. I like that it is comprehensive and also easy to remove. Will report back on how it works.

looking forward to the new phone, particularly the better camera and slightly larger screen.
