    Trans-America Trail

    Aye, it is the hottest part of the year, but the window for completion is rather short. I'm shooting for mid-July at the earliest as stated, but that is flexible back to the beginning of August. Estimates for completion vary widely from everyone I talk to so... I'm talking sub-200 mile a day...

    Considering going the netbook/gps meathod... questions.

    Apparently OffRoad.com already did this. Since I am assuming it worked out, it answers a ton of questions. They used the Samsung Q1 Ultra Premium UMPC which shares the same 1024x600 resolution as nearly all netbooks so I'm guessing that T8 works fine in that resolution. So not I know that it...

    Considering going the netbook/gps meathod... questions.

    So I'm in the market for both a new laptop and a new gps unit. I am considering going the netbook/Delorme PN-40 with Topo USA rout because it would give me a turn by turn street nav, topos for off road, a removable GPS for my field work purposes, and a netbook for me to run my mapping software...

    What about a Titan?

    Hey all, I've been lurking quite some time, but dont post often. I'm finally at the point that I will be getting rid of my little 85 ZX and getting into the expo game. Seeing as I drove (and raced) Nissan 300ZX's for years I figured I would go with a Nissan. So reading threads and getting an...

    Looking at a Trooper

    There is a 1999 trooper for sale near me and I was wondering what you all thought... 1999, silver with cloth, 90K miles, AT with TOD, always garaged and all maintenance records are in hand. Transmission was just replaced, brand new and still has a year warranty on it. I still dont know if it...

    Maybe a Disco?

    Thanks for the info everyone! It has been really really helpful. As for no Land Rovers in Central America, well I cant speak for Mexico or Guatemala, but the convoy we will take to a few places in Belize usually has no less than 6 Discos, 2 Defenders, and a Range Rover. There are many more then...

    Maybe a Disco?

    Ok, I have read multiple times that if you dont need a land rover get something else, but I still have to ask. I am looking for an SUV that will be with me for a max of 3 years. All it needs to do is provide space for survey equipment and camping gear, have a good on-road ride for long trips on...

    Thinking about on Monty...

    This'll be longer then expected.... Hey yall, I guess you can say I'm new here. Usually I kinda hang around the LC forums. Anyway, I had a question for yall. I am by no means a person who knows much about SUVs or off roading or any of that. I have done my fair share of off road driving, but in...

    Anyone taking X's south of the border?

    Thanks for the info. The D40 is not sold there (based off Guatemala) only the D21. They do sell the X-Trail, Pathfinder, Patrol, Murano, and the Frontier. This is nearly the same lineup as Mexico, only with the Titan. None of these share the any engine found in a Xterra. Humm... unfortunate...

    Anyone taking X's south of the border?

    Hello, I'm new to the forums and had a few questions. I'm looking at building a rig and I was wondering if anyone knew what the availability of parts for gen 2 Xterras is in Central America, specifically the Belize/Guatemala area. I know toyotas are a dime a dozen and a 80 LC would be a good...
