    Looking for some DIY advice.

    That actually looks like a very cool build and I don’t think she’d mind it too much. I do have a truck, technically I could just put a rooftop tent in the bed but I’d hate to pack it every time I head out. With a trailer I’d be able to leave it at the camp site. I also never thought of using...

    Looking for some DIY advice.

    Hey everyone! So the wife hates camping (huge bummer) but recently mentioned that she wouldn’t mind it if we had something like a teardrop camper. Unfortunately, budget wise that isn’t really possible for us right now. Most of these are 10k+ or old and beat up. Plus I’d have much more fun...

    Worth it?

    Yeah you guys are right I’ll regret it later and if I’m already spending that much money might as well cough up an extra $300.. I just can’t believe how much these things can go for! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    What do you really NEED for overlanding

    Definitely! I work at an emergency room and worked at a fire department prior to that so thankfully I’m covered when it comes to emergencies. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Worth it?

    For those with shells, is it worth getting the side window doors? It’s an additional $300 for the snugtop rebel. Or just get the sliding pet screen? I’m looking at about $2500 with the window doors + taxes.. I don’t want to cheap out but these things are so expensive I’d have to justify an...

    Wow this thread really took on a life of its own lol.. I appreciate all the replies! and apologize for the lack on my end. My work schedule has been crazy! So, for now, I decided on a few things. I bought a set of ******** Cepek 255/75/R16 tires, they had a great sale and I think tires make the...

    What do you really NEED for overlanding

    I think the texting feature alone has me sold haha! Is this the one that requires a subscription? Regardless the features seem to make it worthwhile. That’s for the tip! As for the maxtrax, you think 4 are necessary? I never thought of using 4 of them as opposed to 2. Sent from my iPhone...

    I know traveling on your own is generally a bad idea, but unless my friends and family take their corollas and accords, I’m on my own with the girlfriend (and MAYBE dog.. she’s loony) Rig: 2018 TRD Off-Road tacoma 4x4 with the stock e-locker. With so much influence form social media, and...

    Possible on a 2dr?

    After much thought, I went with a Tacoma. I decided I wanted a “do it all” kind of vehicle for the next (at least) 10 years. Tacomas are never going to be as great as a jeep, or as fun being able to take the roof and doors off. But they are still great off-road, while providing more confort and...

    Nice! Are you still able to recline your seat? Also, what size tires are you running? Really love the way it looks Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    One more question, has anyone tried putting a road bike inside a 2 door? The dealership would allow me to put my road bike inside. I understand Lol, but couldn’t hurt to try. I imagine with the front wheel off it might be possible? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Really awesome posts. I suppose with a little creativity anything can be possible. Are any of you worried about theft? At least for those of you guys with the rear tire rack mount? Seems like a great place to store things but I’d be scared of getting my things stolen. Sent from my iPhone...

    So would you guys take a 2 door jeep over the new Tacoma’s? I know it’s apples to oranges but if you only had one vehicle what would you guys do? It’s more of a stretch for me to afford the taco. Possible, but I’ll have to cut back on some things. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    40,000 miles? Did you do that trip in one shot? That’s absolutely incredible man!! I can also relate to what you said about it being liberating to have so little. I’ve had times where I’ve been away from home with practically nothing, and something about it was nice. It was Just simple. Just...

    Holy crap you fit two tires and the pooch?? It’s pretty cool seeing all you guys stuff so much in what I thought was a tiny trunk. Granted I feel like it still is but definitely more capable than I ever thought! What rack/tray is that on the swing out? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Nice man! I love the color of your jeep! All these post have been a huge inspiration. I appreciate all the feedback. 9/10 people on the taco forum were completely against the jeep. I love them but prices on those things are almost the same cost as a full size pickup. Sent from my iPhone using...

    wow very inspiring posts!! :wings: definetly got me extremely hyped, especially seeing all those pictures! I think if I took my dog and Gf, id build me a little trailer to stoe away things and do some lighter trails or if I went on extremely long expiditions (but I doubt they'd be longer than a...
