    Camper shell and OME

    The truck is looking good. I am running the Oldman Emu mediums front and rear. With the Canopy on it rides great, also great without. I load the truck down regularly, and love the ride.

    Kootenay's Pro4X Frontier

    The annual desert migration is approaching fast. Making a few last minute changes to the set up. We decided to try a single large roof top tent. With that decision made we went with a Burmis Outdoors Highwood Guides Haus roof top tent. DSC_0788 by kootenaycycle mountainworks, on Flickr I love...

    Kootenay's Pro4X Frontier

    Well crazy season (for the winter) in the store is almost done, a couple more weeks of 70+hrs and I should be able to get some things done to the Frontier again. Last night the wife and I started talking about our annual early spring migration to the Desert. Think we might try two RTT this year...

    New Radio For Titan

    If you look at the Kenwood aftermarket units I believe they use Garmin nav, and some aftermarket trail maps are available for Garmin units.

    1st vs 2nd gen Xterra

    The only real issue on the second gens with manual transmissions would be the timing chain guide wear. According to the ad the seller did it recently so you should be golden. Otherwise I would bet it to be good. Fuel economy wise they are not amazing, I had an 06 Avalanche before my Frontier, it...

    Colossal 2017 - The Canadian Wild.

    Takes one to know one. I was looking to forward to this trip all summer, and it was worth it. I really enjoyed the group of guys, and the trails.

    Popup/tent trailer vs Two RTT (roof top tents)

    We are planning another spring trip down to Arizona/Utah/NewMexico for end of March beginning of April 2018. In the past we have pulled a 20ft travel trailer. The camping was comfy but the drive down and home was not enjoyable, especially with the fuel economy hit of all that trailer. So another...

    Baja Divide

    Thanks for the reply. He tried Schawlbe in the past, and did not find they lasted as long as they needed. So he is looking at Maxxis or WTB at this point. But based on your experience did the Rocket Ron have enough traction and tough enough sidewalls for long extended remote travel in the...

    Baja Divide

    I have a friend who is planning to ride the Baja Divide in January. Right now we are looking at tire options. He will be using 27.5+ tires. Curious what peoples thoughts are on the Maxxis Chronicle vs Minion for desert riding. We do not have that terrain locally so my knowledge is limited. He...

    Kootenay's Pro4X Frontier

    Grab a BC Backroads map book. They newest one is the 7th edition for the area. It has the goods. For a good start Toby Creek area around Invermere/Radium is pretty good exploring.

    1st Gen "Taco" on the "Frontier"!

    Toyota's have a certain cult following. When buying new, they are crazy expensive. This does lead to higher resale values and perceived quality. People naturally want to think they got something better because they paid more. Toyota's are awesome vehicles, however they are not without their...

    Titan Bumpers, Rock Sliders etc.

    http://www.n-fab.com/products/sfID1/115/sfID2/81/sfID3/82/productID/377 These might be an option. They also make a version for light bars instead of the round lights
