The 3L diesel in his Patrol is turbo'ed and I do believe intercooled also. It is a small engine and his truck is very heavy plus has 37's. If he had the 4.2L TD it would be much better but still being a heavy truck with big tires it wouldn't break any speed records. Oh and I am on my 2nd drive...

The internet is rather slow here in Santa Catalina and it is very hot at the cafe'. On top of that I have been trying to get my house in order here. It was very filthy when I arrived and no power. I added up my fuel for the trip south.....330gals. to do 4600 miles. Yeah, my Taco gets bad...

Maybe.....but I am in that group of selfish people. My favorite places in Mexico are along the west coast. A truely awesome place that can only be seen to be believed. Some day I plan to drive that stretch of coast again. Cheers E&M, journey on and stay safe!

So..... The road trip is complete!! I am in Santa Catalina, Panama!! :sombrero: :wings: :victory: I left San Jose, Costa Rica about 7am yesterday. Picked up a backpacker at the hostel I stayed at who got a ride to David, Panama and then took a bus up to Boquete. It took me about 18hrs or so to...

Thanks all for the great comments! I am glad people are still enjoying this trip report.....you can be sure the memories from the trip will last me a lifetime! The trip may appear in a magazine but until I know that for sure not going to say more about that.

We are in San Jose, Costa Rica at the Galileo Hostel. My co-pilot (Matt) leaves very early in the morning tomorrow and heads home to the USA. I plan to head out between 530-630am so that I may be able to reach my destination in Panama by tomorrow night. Once there will have more time to get...

Thanks Scott and no need to delete the pictures.... Just have not had much time for internet or uploading pictures. We are in Costa Rica now. Arrived today and are spending the night in Playa Coco. 4,000 miles logged in 10 days since I left Wyoming!! It has been awesome but soon I will be at...

awesome stuff E&M!! I visted many of the same places last year on my trip.... We just made it to Costa Rica today, so in a few days I will be in Panama. Come visit me if you make it that far south by late March Ian

So..... we made it well into Guatemala. We did not make it to Antigua today. There is some kind of holiday in Mexico (and possibly more of Latin America) which involves people running a torch down the road. I guess I could look it up and see what this holiday is, just have not had much time for...

I suppose this is a a good question depending on where you sit...... #1, I have lived in JH for 15yrs. Many winters spent snowboarding, including a number of record winters. ALL winters spent riding I logged over 100 days. #2 this as I understand is a travel forum, paticuarly travel by...

This won't be to much of a trip report but should be some fun pictures and info.... I left Jackson Hole Wyoming on Tuesday December 7th at 8pm. I had so many last minute things to do I was at least 12hrs behind my schedule. As a result I had no choice but to drive 24hrs straight from Jackson...

That 720 C200 is very similar to the 160 series Patrol C200. Some if not most parts interchange. Same era trucks and all though....

I take it that the C200K is to different from the C200's put in Patrols? Otherwise you could use or modify the Patrol C200 locker(s).

Yup pretty common on any truck to have failing alts if you play in mud & water. That silty water stuff is the worst! For this very reason we went with a custom high mount on the diesel in my Patrol, that is as high as we could possibly get it and still be able to close the hood! as you...

x2 :sombrero:

yeah, now you have got me thinking a lot about this..... :rolleyes: I just put in a call to the dealership and they pulled up the entire service history on my truck. Lower BJs were replaced in this recall in December of 06! That is before I bought the truck but it has been done... Stoked!

very nice! Can't wait to see you test it.... :) Oh and by looking at how the front is done, I am betting you have zero issues with bump steer, wobble or other front end dramas.
