    Side-mount Jerry can holders

    That is a very nice hard top! I have had a vehicle with gerry cans on the side but always worried about a side impact or what would happen in a roll-over/sliding wreck on pavement.

    If you could build...

    A Camper shell (cab high or higher) allows for camping in the truck when you want. Spend the rest on gas $$ LOL It all depends on what you want to do on your trip. Your Taco will get you most places. OME suspension ? Side rock sliders ?

    Washable Cabin Air Filter for 05+Tacoma

    I have washed the OEM type filter several times. The last time I cleaned the filter it was really dirty and contained small leaves. Making your own filter is a good idea. Maybe the dealer only charges full hrs for labor? Did they mention the factory Toyota 2 part HVAC cleaning spray and...

    Looking to buy FJ...need advise

    I think you would be better off with 4 real doors with roll down windows for your daughter and pups. Have you thought of a 4 Runner? Or a DC Tacoma with a camper shell.

    Expedition vehicle transmissions: Auto or manual?

    I'd take a manual any day. Too bad manual transmissions are getting harder to find in most vehicles here in the USA.

    Thai Mog? - What the heck is this thing?

    Agricultural use? Looks similar to what I have seen in Ventura County. The wheel width fits in the furrows of the crops for harvesting.

    Picked up a 73 Power Wagon *Now with pictures*

    Grampa is a great name for it. What a good find. Since it is in such great shape I wouldn't change it too much. Disc brakes etc. There are lots of beat up dodges around for major modifications.

    AEV JK Six Pack

    I'd like some more info on the dimensions inside and out. Imagine that with a pop top or doormobile type of camper set up. An enclosed body SUV on a Power Wagon frame would be sweet.
