I purchased this truck in November of 2015 after searching for over a month. I was looking for a West Coast Cruiser, in particular a SoCal truck and I found one in Portland, Oregon that spent almost it's entire life in SoCal before being sold at auction and ending up in Oregon. When I purchased...
Oh and to any of you Land Cruiser fans following along, I saw two 200-series Cruisers yesterday on the road. One was maroon in color and the other black. I am 99% sure the 200 was-is not sold down here. Both of them had Mexican plates so must have been imported. The black one passed me last...
A bit more of a trip report!
I got the iOverlander app and am loving it, it rocks! Right now I am in Palenque, Mexico and am headed to Guatemala soon. I drove 14hrs yesterday and it was not a lot of fun! But hey there are days like that when you put it all on the line. I had a great day today...
Hey no worries! Thanks for the positive feedback! Life is a journey right? We all do it our own way but it is still a journey. ;)
I find when I am down (unmotivated or whatever) that I just think about what I have done before. I started my landscape business when I was 26yrs old. It was very...
Please see above, they are not hard shell kayaks they are collapsible kayaks. So that means they are a skin of frame that all breaks down into a "golf club" sized bag. For me it is the perfect boat for overlanding, especially if you are international. The size of the bag meets the limit...
Hey thanks for following along! I owned a landscape business for 18yrs and a truck restoration business for a lot of years as well. The landscape thing was seasonal, April-November and I would do the truck thing all year but focused on it in the winter. No I didn't exactly sell my companies...
Hey Okon and family! We bumped into you a few times in Baja, last time being right before you jumped on the ferry. We didn't realize our threads were so close here on ExPo. ;)
How is the trip going in Mainland Mexico? Perhaps we will bump into you again.
Cheers
The truck as well as myself are down here in Mexico now for nearly 2 months! To follow along on our adventure you can find my posts and updates over in the "in progress adventures" here,
Page three is where the goodies start! ;)...
As mentioned before we are staying in Guanajuato for awhile to get some things worked out with the truck. Nothing that really needed to be done but things that didn't get finished or dealt with in the USA. Today I just need to install the factory e-locker switch to my Harrop e-lockers and that...
Ya the CA border crossing are a part of the adventure that is for sure! The APHIS form is the way to go in my opinion, researching before my trip was how I discovered it and the process to get it. At every border I would just ask for the AG office and then go in it with the APHIS form in hand...
So last weekend we went to a place called Sótano de las Golondrinas also known as The Cave of Swallows.

The weekend before we had gone out to San Luis Potosi to do some caving and get myself and a few other people who hadn't caved in a long time...
A place in San Luis Potosi we stopped at a few days ago.
Dominos last night with the old schoolers here in Guanajuato.
Rock climbing yesterday outside the city of Guanajuato.
Roy having some fun!
Cheers
Like I say we have gone caving the last two weekends but we have also been doing some other stuff as well. Here are some pictures.
Roy dropping into a 250 meter drop!
Our camp two weekends ago in San Luis Potosi.
In the jungle at Golondrinas last weekend.
We went to a place called...
