My wife and I took off Sunday, Monday and Tuesday for a little fun. Sunday we drove up to Leadville for lunch and a little hanging out. They just completed the Leadville 100 mile race. I like to run but man those people are sick! We want to do it someday! After Leadville we drove past...

Went up to South Park this past Sunday for 3 nights with my daughter. We spent Sunday and Monday camping on our property just south of Antero Resevoir. On Tuesday we did a little fishing, then headed up to do Breakneck Pass and Browns Pass. What a nice trip. It took us about 2 1/2 hours...

So does anyone know of a good anti-slip tape that I can put on my sliders that won't tear the skin off the legs of my passengers when they rub against it? I've tried regular anti-skid tape from the hardware store but it's way too abrasive. I remember seeing some a long time ago while searching...

I had some free time today so I started messing around with my tent cot again and an awning I almost forgot I had in my garage. I built the tent platform last year and it works really well. I had been setting up the tent cot then placing it loose on the rack securing it with straps. I wanted...

Finally got my first winch! I almost bought a mile marker a while ago but decided to wait until I could get a Warn. I ended up going with the M8000. 4Wheel Parts had them for $525, not bad. Since I got the winch I decided it was a good time to pick up a new battery. I was going to get an...

So my neighbor has an 06 4Runner Sport with the Xreas suspension. He is getting jealous of my tacoma, so he says, so he wants to add an OME suspension lift, sliders and ARB or Shrocks bumper. I told him I'd help him out with that! Anyway I am not very familiar with the 4th Gen 4Runners and...

Okay so I got some cash and get to do a little shopping! After I go get my new battery and winch tomorrow, I'm seriously thinking of getting a fridge/freezer, Norcold or Engle. I need to be able to move it between my Tacoma Dbl Cab the the Xterra. The Xterra is easy, dedicated factory 12v...

I came across this today and was wondering if anyone has any experience with them. Looks interesting, only 560lbs dry weight. http://www.bestbuiltproducts.com/

I just picked one of these up from Sportsmans Warehouse. They are getting rid of them for $20! Figure for that price it's worth a try. In just the few minutes I spent looking at it, it seems decent and I should be able to attach it to my Load Warrior. The tarp seems fairly thin, we'll see...

So I'm debating if I should get an electric winch or start off with a manual. I have never needed a winch before and usually stay on easy to moderate trails so I am leaning towards a manual winch. I have read Scotts review of the Black Rat winch then I came across this product. The More Power...

Okay so I just passed 1,000 miles on the Xterra yesterday. The break-in period is 1200 miles, according to the manual. Nissan recommends oil changes every 3750 miles. Should I wait that long or since the engine is breaking in should I get it changed at around 1200 then use then at 3750 there...

I had the day to myself yesterday so I decided to drive up Rollins Pass. I started in Central City then headed over to the Moffat Tunnel. From there I drove up Rollins Pass Road as far as you can on the East side. I intended to walk the last mile or so to the tunnel but the 20 degree temp...

Just looking for opinion here. I have an opportunity to get a 48"x60" wilderness rack with highlift and shovel/axe accessories for an extremely good price from my buddy. I have been looking for a cargo basket to put on the roof of my double cab and am leaning towards buying this rack. It...

I spent the weekend with family and friends up in South Park Colorado. Nothing extreme but it was a good time. With my wifes hectic schedule it was the only time she was able to make it out with us all year so I really enjoyed it. Anyway, we set up camp at Horseshoe Campground. Saturday...

Most of the family camping is done in the Coleman popup but lately I've been wanting to get out to areas that the camper can't be taken to. Also on solo trips I don't want to take the camper. I started by looking at roof top tents but in the end just could not justify the money for the amount...

Okay, I don't really know much about wiring stuff so I am wondering how or if this can be done. My Tacoma is set up with a 7 pin plug for our pop up camper that includes a charge line for the 12v battery in the camper. I am starting to do some more tent/truck camping, just got a new tent cot...

I was thinking of getting one of these, 40"x50" or 45"x50". Has any one used one? Comments, impressions of the rack? I am most interested in how strong the rack is under weight. thanks
