    Best FJC avoidance argument ever, lol.

    It's definitely still a Toyota underneath all that... Check out that driver's side lean. :victory:

    Best folding grills

    The new Grillo folding grill... Looks like it would be great for backpacking as it is pretty small. Uses a wire mesh 'hammock' to hold the burning material. Pretty cool design. Still in pre-production, not yet for sale. Grillo « fA formAxiom

    Tacoma Baja rack - Flat utility vs basket

    Yeah x2... Literally. Bajarack still makes that bracket - http://store.adventuretrailers.com/products/BajaRack-Awning-Bracket-Mounts%2C-For-Expedition-Racks.html FrontRunner also makes an awning mount specifically for the sides of their flat racks as well for the 'Front Runner Easy-Out...

    Tacoma Baja rack - Flat utility vs basket

    If you don't have a clearance problem with your garage or at work, I would think that the basket w/rails would work better securing cargo within that (relatively) smaller rack area. I feel the entirely flat racks really come into their own in the bigger length sizes when you can also easily use...

    Same here. Got my stainless version of the FireSense Notebook Grill for $25 on sale, but they're commonly available on Amazon for $35 - http://www.amazon.com/Fire-Sense-Stainless-Notebook-Charcoal/dp/B007P1N4SW/ref=pd_sim_lg_4?ie=UTF8&refRID=138J7DTQMJFB3S85Y14D And there is a 'regular' tin...

    New Roof Rack for Tacomas and FJCs

    Instead of just those round spacers carrying the load maybe there should be a solid bar as the spacer. It would need to have holes in the same places, but could be the same length as the platform's foot and place the load along the roof channel. Then the load would be dispersed over a larger...

    FJC replacement thread

    Among other things. But the CAFE standards weren't a large factor in letting the FJC go when the 4Runner and Tacoma (with nearly the same MPG ratings) contributed much more to Toyota's corporate MPG by outselling the FJC several times over. The FJC was not cost-effective on many levels, and its...

    FJC replacement thread

    I still say they shoulda gone FJ55-retro with the 5th-Gen 4Runner. The upright greenhouses of those two share more similar lines than we saw on the 4th-Gen-based FJ Runner. Yeah, there won't be any replacement for the FJC. The last several year's sales were a blip in the market, so there's no...

    New Roof Rack for Tacomas and FJCs

    Looks pretty good, I'm guessing the platform itself is about 84"Lx55"W? And the cross bars are even with the top of the side rails, or just a hair below them? Wondering about the strength of that rearmost foot, though. Almost looks like if you accidentally pulled down heavily on that corner the...

    Safari Equipment USA trailers....Anyone heard of these?

    Very AT Horizon-looking. And haven't we been down that road before?

    Ice in ARB 63qt

    I wouldn't put ice in a fridge/freezer. These are more pricey than your standard 'blue ice' packs, but if you're looking for filler that will maintain a low temp I'm starting to hear about these - http://www.arctic-ice.com/index.html They say the Alaskan Series is for keeping beverages and...

    Took the FJ swimming...fail

    Yikes. I took a lifted Ford Ranger for a similar swim once, and it wasn't lifted enough, lol. We were crossing the Medio Creek at a point I knew extremely well, having crossed it via truck, tractor, ATV (back when they only came with three wheels), and even on foot for most of my life up to that...

    Is there a 3-4 man, 3-season tent with windows can be zipped fully shut <$300

    That is one smokin' deal! Great grab on your part.

    Is there a 3-4 man, 3-season tent with windows can be zipped fully shut <$300

    I have a 6-man Coleman Instant Tent that comes close to your description, however... Pros: Large windows that can be zipped fully closed, tall interior space, easy set up, low price, rain fly material works well so far, low price (mine was less than $200 on sale). Cons: Needs extra...

    Check this trailer out!

    That was one of the cool/oddball trailers I posted about a couple years ago in this thread - http://www.expeditionportal.com/forum/threads/68129-Not-very-expo-but-figured-you-guys-would-be-entertained Was hoping to find more as time went on and keep that thread going, but there's just not that...
