    Didn't see this: I think you forgot to mention the custom overhead guage/aux. fuel thingy. :costumed-smiley-007 Same class or different.

    Expedition 80 For Sale!

    What??? Who would do such a thing? After all this time I don't want the bumper. :gunt: (just the rack) :shakin: I, however, can vouch for how clean the rig is and how meticulous Kevin has been with this beast. The paint job is better than factory. In all seriousness...

    Doc's 05 Tacoma Build Thread

    Dave, I am sure Deaver is one of the leaders in the industry. But, you could always check with National Spring here in San Diego, more like El Cajon/Santee area. Good luck with SBS (saggy butt syndrome) And if you want a really fun look at things. Next time you're on a trip, stop at...

    AT Attic Sale (part 1)

    I know Steve's already in line... But which stove: the wind river or the cook partner. Also, regarding the surco rack. How does it mount? Could you mount an Eezi Awn?

    Doc's 05 Tacoma Build Thread

    Congrats Dave! I'm impressed that you were supposed to have the bumper delivered by 800 PM! And you posted that the bumper was ON just before 900 AM!!! That's less just over twelve hours! And throughout the night as well... Did you sleep at all? :bowdown: :bowdown: :bowdown: :bowdown: You...

    M101 Cdn

    I received a quote to a business address here in San Diego, actually El Cajon. Total was... $1180! Taxes, import fees, and I guess fuel is super expensive in Canada right now.

    :wings: O.k. Now everyone chant with me on three... One... Two... Three... Dave's the man! Dave's the man! Dave's the man! Way to go! Like Mark said, very original. You have been a pioneer in "new" Taco modification. Going beyond boundaries others thought...

    Considering going from my 1996 Landcruiser to a Tundra or Tacoma...any thoughts?

    I understand your concern about the parking issues in the So Cal beach areas. That added with the attention you draw can lead to potential theft problems, which is a problem with most built-up 80's as Daryl pointed out (and something I have been dealing with, especially with Baja). :( Doc...

    Considering going from my 1996 Landcruiser to a Tundra or Tacoma...any thoughts?

    David... WELCOME!!! :wings: If I remember you have supercharger. Thus pulling a trailer won't be such a burden as one of us with the stock engine. Also, to replicate Doc's suggestions, you'll need a long bed Tacoma. He has the short bed version, he's built it very well, and it wheels just...

    2007 Thanksgiving in Baja

    Waoow! You weren't kidding about the picture count. Although I am proud to say that I viewed the entire album. The trip looks like a blast. Is the white 80 a guy "darwood" on mud? I had asked him for feedback on his technitop, which was very helpful. But he had moved to Texas or...

    What am I doing to give back?

    I cannot recommend the CERT program enough. As an instructor, the topics covered and lessons learned are invaluable. If your neighborhood or city has a CERT program, join up. https://www.citizencorps.gov/cert/ :arabia:

    ECamper from Honda

    John, Are you in Encinitas/Solana Beach area? We were driving around today, and drove by an ECamper! I wanted to stop and oogle, but we were late for a meeting. Oh, and I have an 80 to, ummm, donate when you're ready...
