I put it on the list the other day. We are gonna see if we can find someone locally and go from there. It’s certainly not a massive market. For the most part the rack does not touch the roof and hasn’t over several trips. We did run into a little bit of an issue on this last trip with the feet...

Trip Report: Exploring Central Utah Got the chance to go out with our marketing team and shoot some content for our full-size truck racks. My fiance and I took it as an opportunity to test out our setup on our first trip with two dogs. We have some teaching to do with the little puppy, but the...

Yessir, we try and go once a month and take everyone out for a paid day wheeling. It's a time for people to get more hands-on with products, connect with each other, and remember why do what we do. My business is Sherpa Equipment Company. With the truck set up the way it is I get roughly...

I can safely say I wouldn't do anything I felt was a danger to myself or my family. I also have a fair understanding of what I am doing. It sounds like a scale is in my near future. Got the truck out last week during one of our company wheeling trips. It was fun to load up the truck and test...

So we have a 2004 Toyota 4Runner we race with on Icons new CDEV (Electronically Adjusting) shocks that will come out for our platform soon. We got the opportunity to ride in a couple of their other trucks with the same suspension and it’s pretty mind blowing. I’ve always been a big fan of the...

Camper Upgrades The Bush Company 270 XT MAX Awning While down in Texas we added one of the greatest pieces of gear for the camper. A 270 was something we knew we were going to add from the get go, but we hadn’t heard about The Bush Company awnings until we spoke with Rex at Midguard Adventure...

CHROME DELETE I was talking to a buddy of mine who owns both an auto body and overland gear shop, Midguard Adventure Equipment. We decided it was time for me to take a trip down to Houston to get rid of some chrome. I can’t thank him enough for the work his team did on the truck. They...

Sherpa Roof Rack One of the most exciting parts of builds for me has to be the roof rack. As a small business owner it is always fun to get to see your product in action, let alone install one on your own truck and put it to use. We started the business back in 2017 and focus on building the...

Front Bumper & Grille One of the things I always hated on the truck was the chrome. I know it may be some peoples flavor, but it has not grown on me. I knew right away that I would find a way to either replace it all or get it painted. To kick it off I picked up a “Raptor Style Bumper” off of...

Exactly. At the time we bought it we were planning on towing a 6000lbs travel trailer with a truck that has 13800lbs capacity. BUT, I really wish I could have people jump in my truck and drive it with the camper in the bed. With airbags on the truck, it really does handle the camper soo well...

Yeah, my fiancé and I spent a good bit of time looking at trucks and deciding on what we wanted. It really came down to comfort & technology for price. At the time we were looking at trucks it was nearly impossible for anything to beat the interior of the current generation F150. The digital...

Wheels & Tires One of the most welcome changes on the truck has to be the wheels and tires. The truck just lacked personality and I was really happy to make one of the first changes for offroad performance. I wanted to pick a tire that was going to have enough offroad capability without...

It is certainly close but so far I am coming in right at or very darn close (depending on extra gear) to the payload capacity on this truck. With that being said, before I started this I took a look at many of the Overland Toyotas in our parking lot and pretty much all of them were exceeding the...

The Build Plan: (2/28/23) The following items are either on the truck or are in the plans. I will do my best to color code them. Wheels & Tires 17”x9 Black Rhino Rapid Wheels (12mm) Nitro Ridge Grappler RT Tires (315/70/17) Suspension 2.5” ICON Coilover w/ CDCV (Front) 2.5” ICON Piggyback w/...

Well it’s officially time to jump into it and start a build thread for this thing. I have been involved in the “overland” market as a business owner for 6 years now. We have always owned Toyota’s and they always got the job done. But as my fiancé and I started going on long distance trips we...
