He was a "Bad" influence on me as well. Now I have a 1996 FZJ 80 in my driveway and holes in my wallet. The modifications on mine start this weekend. Thanks for your input and help Adam!

I have been to that area before, but not with a camper. I loved camping in that area as a young adult. Kind of nice to see the look on the boaters faces when they see you show up in a truck.

I have a 6.0 Diesel in mine. It is stock, no chips, lift, modifications and running stock sized tires. Just for comparison sake, I get 18 mpg when on the highway and pushing speed on the mountain passes. I get 20 mpg when I am taking it easy and keeping it closer to 70-75mph. When I am...

Nice pictures and build thread you have here. I used to live in Kansas and spent every summer vacation coming to Colorado for the seven years I lived there. After a trip to Moab, Ouray and Salida I was hooked and moved out here over ten years ago. Glad you have been enjoying time in my...

Not sure what year your 6.0 powered F250 is. I have friends who have the same powertrain, but of 2005-2007 variety, and I bought mine based on their experience with theirs. None have had any problems with them except for one and this was due to neglect of maintenance. I changed all my fluids...

Thanks for sharing! I hope to go there myself some day soon.

Nice to see others getting out with their families. I think I saw your truck this past week while visiting the Salt Lake City area. Kevin

Thank you for being the bigger man. Kevin

Thanks for sharing your trip report. It is trips like this that keep this forum interesting for me. Now on to planning my next adventure. Kevin

Thanks for sharing, I always enjoy your gift for making your adventures come alive.

Looks like an awesome trip! Thanks for sharing.

Myself and 3000 of my Nigerian friends would have to disagree. Just tell me if you accept Paypal and I will arrange for my shipper to pick up the item.

I usually get around 16mpg highway from mine and 12 in town and towing. I have a friend who drove it and got 19mpg on the highway. That was unloaded and I do not normally go on trips without having a full load or pulling a trailer. I put on about 1500 miles in one trip this past summer and...

Nice car and glad to see that you are having some daddy daughter bonding time in the shop!

Chuck, Welcome to the forum. I am in the same boat as you but looking for a gas truck as I have heard that diesels are not good daily drivers due to taking longer to warm up and the high maintenence costs when something does go wrong. I have settled on looking for a crew cab for my needs and...

Nicely done modifications as usual! Now to get mine done.

Well done! I have wanted to do a trip along the Pioneer trail myself but have not gotten around to it yet. Someday, someday....

Stunning pictures! Does a person need any special documentation to get into Canada? I hope to take my kids up there someday and did not want to have to get passports for all of them.

Ditto to what Axle Ike is saying. I followed him on this type of lift after reading his experience with it. I got rid of the Ball Joint spacers earlier this Summer after getting tired of replacing upper and lower ball joints every year. I ended up having to replace tie rod ends (not related...
