    kiva.org - let you loan to the working poor

    The Canuck Truck buildup!

    Wow, this truck looks a lot different than when I first spied your posts on 4wdtrips.net. Looks really good. P, it looks, from one of your photos, like you installed an Engel fridge behind the passenger seat of your Xtra cab. Do you have any shots? I picked up a Wedco CF-35 which appears...

    Expedition Unimog 416 Diesel

    Depending on the condition of the truck when it returns from Alaska and the condition of my wallet over the coming months, I could be interested. Esp. if it's in really good condition.

    SoCal Snow Run

    Looks like you guys had fun. I was looking at those mountains on Saturday wishing like mad I could make my way up but was stuck performing domestic labor. I clicked my heels three times, crossed my arms and blinked, but no matter what, my chores wouldn't do themselves and I wasn't magically...
