    How can I get some tie-down points in the back of my 2011 T4R?

    I am trying to figure out how to create some tie-down points behind the front seats in my rig. The storage area behind the back seats and to the tailgate will be occupied by my modified Australian Chuckwagon setup. I really don't want to remove the rear seats, just fold them down. I can use...

    Seattle to the Darien Gap in a sub $5,000 Toyota - What would you buy?

    Actually, I just sold my '97 T4R for $5,000 to a neighbor lady. 237 K on body, ~90 K miles on engine, and ~40 K miles on tranny and radiator. Installed OME suspension, and gave her the General AltiMax Arctic studded snows with the deal. It would have been a perfect rig for your proposed trip.

    Cooper Discoverer AT3 in snow

    Great comments everyone! I want to clarify something here: The streets here today have a slick coating of compacted snow with the probablity of black ice underlying that material. This is a frequent occurance here. I found the AT3's to be ineffective in this environment. I do not have any...

    Cooper Discoverer AT3 in snow

    Hi Scott! Thanks for the reply. I value your judgement and will read through the material you posted. I am also pleased to hear that these tires work well in the environment you drive in. I really like Cooper tires and have used them for years. But I'm not pleased with this rubber compound...

    Cooper Discoverer AT3 in snow

    This may be one of the top overall tires, according to a recently published test, but in slick, snowy environments they suck. We received our first light snowfall this morning in Spokane, WA. I had to get to a medical appointment and jumped into my 2011 T4R with a relatively new set of these...

    FS 1997 3rd gen T4R with RTT and awning

    I forgot to mention that I have the Harken Hoist setup that allows you to store the RTT at ceiling level in your garage. Great place to park it during the off season.

    FS 1997 3rd gen T4R with RTT and awning

    Sorry about that fellows, I'll edit the ad. No it does not have a rear diff. I had talked to Torfab about installing the rear axle off a TRD with the rear axle, but the new rig showed up first. It is located in Spokane, WA

    Show us your Toyota 4runner, tacoma or truck.

    Set up at the Northwest Overland and Touratech Rally last month in Plain, WA. Great time! I couldn't decide what was more fun, hanging around with my 2 wheeled or 4 wheeled buddies.

    Mancation-A Loose Plan to Exploring SOME of Utah's Treasures

    Stunning photography and excellent writeup. Thanks for sharing. Don't tell anyone where your sites are. Finding them for yourself is half the fun! Please put up some more of this stuff. It just gets me more pumped up to get back there and do some real canyon hiking.

    In search of the ancient ones

    After hiking back out to the rig, we drove to Moab and spent the night at a nice BLM campground just north of town. Really upscale; vault toilet and garbage bin! Met a bunch of very friendly youngsters there (youngster = under 40 years old) and played a drinking game called Smart *ss. Two...

    In search of the ancient ones

    Every adventure provides us with a set of new possibilities offset by a similar set of compromises. This would be our last day on Cedar Mesa before having to head back to Spokane and our other lives. Should we use this last day as we did searching for the Citadel, or should we play it safe and...

    In search of the ancient ones

    I'd love to put up a video of the campsite where we ended up after visiting Moon House. Unfortunately, I don't know how. I'd also like to put up some video of our attempt to reach the Citadel. Oh, well....let's see if this will work...
