Very cool, I had no idea that they made these... Apparently yours is the 2009 model, there is also a new 2011 model (matchbox model, not Toyota model). Amazon.com: Matchbox 2011 Outdoor Sportsman 74 of 100 Toyota 4Runner (Tan/Black): Toys & Games Thanks for sharing, now I know what to...

I think that whether or not it is a good article depends on who their target reader is. If they were targeting me, then I'd be pretty let down by the lack of info and the fact that they simply chose a few cars out of the hundreds (?) that are sold elsewhere in the world and not here. If they...

BTW, I linked to the E-code lights... European specs, which allow much less light above the horizon on low beams. In the EU, overhead highway signs are illuminated, so your headlights don't have to light them up. In the US, headlights shine more light above horizon to illuminate signs since...

I had a friend in college who had an 88... tough and comfortable rigs. Best of luck to the seller and potential buyers :-D

Nice looking camper, just a bit dirty. Hopefully the inside is better off than the outside. That jack system is awesome. The only reason that I wouldn't want one like that is because it'd be a tight fit in the back of the Tacoma. :-p

When you upgrade lights, it's a good idea to upgrade the wiring too. Check out this write up. I bought Hellas and the harness he resells, good kit. http://www.4crawler.com/4x4/CheapTricks/Headlights.shtml#H4Conversion

I just read about those recently... look like a good value on a great machine. Go for it!

That is exactly it. The business model is targeting business travelers who expense it.... who else would pay $12 per day for internet? (that was Wayport's price a few years ago in hotels)

Great looking 4R FeelinIrie... specs?

I just go to McDs as well. ATT has the contract with them (got it when they bought Wayport a few years ago, you'll notice the SSID). I think about 99% of them are equipped. Also, I think that Starbucks are no longer membership and are open. Tourist information centers typically have wifi as...

An 85 truck with the EFI... rather rare since most came with a carb, did they not? Best of luck with the search. Didn't you have a truck like that "back in the day"?

I had to change out the transmission in my 88 V6 4Runner (later sold) a few years ago and I didn't want to buy a jack that I'd probably never use again, so I used a jack like this: and I just welded two u-shaped pieces of 1/2 inch rebar to the round plate to hold the transmission. It took...

Wow, that's an awesome switch panel... I guess you don't take the top off much?

Looking good. Keep documenting your work!

Great photos, looks like an(other) awesome trip :-D

Personally, between those two vehicles, I'd go with the Dakota... put a bed topper on it and you have loads of space for stuff which I'd think is important with a couple of kiddos.

I was at a bar in Austin called Draught Haus where you can buy a beer and sit in lawn chairs in the parking lot to drink (I know what you are thinking, "why don't I just save money and drink in my driveway?") Anyhow, parking was tight and a guy who had a few was backing out of a spot in a new...

That's a cool looking place to explore. Thanks for posting the photos!

Ditto. If you are running stock gears, pick up a third member at a salvage yard. Make sure you get the right gears, for example auto transmissions had lower gearing. Changing it is easy. - pull axles - pull third - clean housing - install 'new' third - install axles It might be worth it to...

Not my vehicle and I'm not associated with the owner, just a CL find titled xxxxxexpeditionxxxx that popped up in my google alerts. http://denver.craigslist.org/cto/2277459251.html
