    Anyone own an Armada?

    Make sure you buy one from 2009 or you will have a lot of issues. Here is my former ride. A 2009 Nissan Armada. It treated me well. Never disappointed m,e as my current ride, 2012 Infiniti QX56 has disappointed me a few times.

    Today decided to take a long trip from Big Bend to Big Bend SP, Presidio, Shafter Ghost Town, Marfa, Fort Stockton and the McDonald's Observatory. Great drive on 170. The McDonald's observatory was a treat. You should go check it out if you are into astrology. Great teaching experience. And when...

The road is quite busy. The road is so easy. Any car does it. Saw 3 cars with street tires. Here is...

Well, I do what I always do. I just looked around for someone that I feel could help out. So, I met these 2 guys about...

    What a long night. Drove for 10 hours. Stopped multiple times. I did 6 hours and she did 2 hours. It was so tiring. Traffic was light and weather was great. I did not get to the restaurant at 7am as I was hoping, but I got there at 8:15am, which turned out great as we stopped in time to catch...

    I think I may do that because I need to be accessing the coolers during the trip for snacks and drinks. So, I will end up keeping them in the car on the back seat. Since it is just 2 of us going on the road trip. They are secured with bungee cords and ratchet straps. But in the pics there it...

    These are not the M/Ts. The M/Ts are mud tires, but the ones I have are the X/Ts, which is their hybrid tire between the Mud tires and the All Terrain tires. These are 305/45/22 Atturo Trail Blade X/Ts. I really like it so far. For such an aggressive tire, it has some good road manners and...

    You are one lucky man. Enjoy your rigs. And when I come through Oregon this summer, if you are on my route, I will PM you and stop by to see these rigs. So, when would we be honored to see these mysterious rigs you have been talking about who are elusive to photographs?
