I can assure you, your advice is not being ignored. Thank you for all of it. I will filter through and reply with questions. Forgive, I am new to this and I have to wade through the sarcasm and non-believers here.

Lame.

While your silly reply is obviously for comic relief, a Bentley would certainly be more reliable than a Syncro.

Now, that is more along the lines of the professed EP mindset. Bravo!

Nada. Not trying to impress you. Run along. Pearl bases? How gauche. Not concerned with paint. Perhaps something drab. I want to make it look old and semi-worthless.

Oooh, super duper. Glad you will stick around and attempt to be entertained. You are quite the intellect, Mr. Outer Skin of Space Ship Earth. I am but a mental pauper compared to the likes of you.

Thanks, Christian. And, it's Smails, not Snails.

Let me get this straight...I took the "insulting wanker" route? That juvenile did nothing but cut and paste insulting bits and I called him out. Sorry if you two have similar accents and you got insulted, but I found it most irritating. He basically called me a troll and self-absorbed with...

Do you actually have a vocabulary or are you only able to cut and paste meaningless, stupid pictures? Why don't you speak your mind and quit acting like a limey bastard? Perhaps you need childish snippets from the internet to do your talking for you. If so, carry on...tut tut, cheerio!

Are you people suggesting, in a round-about way, that I choose a 100 series for this trip? My idea was to brave the world in a more nostalgic manner. I may need a kidney transplant half way through, but I should be able to buy a fresh set of those from any one of numerous countries along the...

Offers for guidance are greatly appreciated. I am still putting together my team and my support crew, so I will update anyone interested. Exact travel itinerary is not concrete yet, but I will post when it is more clear. As to safety and security, I will be stripping any indicators of...

I beg to differ. Money talks, my friend. Perhaps you spend too much time in the nappy dugout and not enough time making it happen.

Wow, tough crowd. I thought the boys at the BS were harsh. While I feel many of your responses are dubious, at best, some have offered up good, if not gritty and eye-opening advice. I thank you for that.

Oh! SEMPERtoy...Marines! I get it. How droll. That is okay. Perhaps I can rough it and ride in the cab of the flatbed. While I appreciate the offer of lodging, and have indeed spent some time in smallish confines...I would not impose on you. Schedule is tight but I will look at a...

Uh, was this a bad idea? My researchers told me that engine was a fine option for my build. What did I miss?

Honestly, I am sorry if I came across as overbearing or pompous. Simply put, I did not want to mince words about trying to save money on this build, as it is not an issue. Your offer for the desert is outstanding. I may take you up on it. Is there a place to land a Twin Commander around your...

Not sure I understand this post. "Inside joke?" I'm sorry, have I given you reason to doubt me and require proof? Isn't this a place where anyone can come to gather information without prejudice?

I had the original vortec upgraded to the Toyota 5L-E that was robbed from a H200-series, which conveniently rolled into a ravine overseas. I had a number of spotters looking out for one for over a year. It was a tricky conversion, but the outcome is a reliable chug with separate tanks for...

Thank you, Bigdaddy, for the pertinent information. My Icon is based off of the FJ43 series. A little obscure, but I like it a lot. Bells and whistles is an understatement when it comes to this ride.

Seems like a silly question, but, I can assure you, I will be driving. There is a very good offroad drive trainer here in the bay area who I hired full time to give me an edge.
